Cheaper than Sirt

I dig the Sirt training laser. Need one in M&P as well.

Quote of the Day

I like this Rand Paul guy:

I rise today to oppose the nomination of anyone who would argue that the President has the power to kill American citizens not involved in combat,” Paul will say on the Senate floor Wednesday. “I rise today to say that there is no legal precedent for killing American citizens not directly involved in combat and that any nominee who rubber stamps and grants such power to a President is not worthy of being placed one step away from the Supreme Court.

Heck, he may even get me to start voting again.

Astroturf all the way down

Heard around the house

Me: Does taking earplugs to a concert make me old?

Wife: Yes.

Blogging later, going to a show.

More SB-15 goodness and loving tax avoidance

I’m working on mine, got the parts for the shorty AR en route. But here’s a nice little MP5 clone using the SB-15:

I need to find an acceptable 10/22 platform that can sport the SB-15. Oh, wait. Tactical Solutions has that NFA hack.

New optics on old guns

From Oleg. I’ve been a fan of Ultimak for a while

Called it

Way back when there was a push to make toy guns identifiable by having an orange tipped barrel, I quipped that criminals would start painting their barrels to avoid getting shot by police. Nailed it. If someone is pointing a gun at you, no matter the barrel color, presume it is a gun and act accordingly.

Volokh: Constitutional right to self-defense limits government employer’s right to fire employee for defending himself

Live free or there

She chose free. Good job getting out of MA.

Even more evidence, as if we had doubt.

I have an arsenal in my pants

NY post says four guns and some ammo is an “arsenal”

Standing?

The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Ownership is suing to ensure enforcement of NJ’s everybody gets a unicorn program. Oh, no, the smart gun law. Same thing.

75 count can of whoopass. I’d pay good money to hear Oleg utter the phrase “can of whoopass”

A reason to go to the Gunblogger Rendezvous. As if you need a reason.

In fast and furious news

Judge is leaning toward White House privilege claim in ‘Fast and Furious’. Yes, she’s leaning toward keeping secret documents that may explain exactly what the hell they were thinking.

Confiscation loophole

I’ll start taking a play from the press and call laws I don’t like loopholes.

CO passed a ban on non-FFL transfers. So, after an accident, the emergency workers secured a gun. Now, they cannot give it back due to CO law.

The shortest ammo test ever

Musical ammo

Vehicle carry without a permit

Soon to be legal in TN

Well, it is astroturf

Harry Reid reaches out to anti-gun groups and finds nothing there.

Palm Pistol update

Well, looks like more of the same.

A TN rep is looking to overturn Obama’s orders on surplus guns.

Forward motion in the culture war

Chicago fashion and guns.

I, terrorist

Everyone’s a terrorist, potentially.

Clark at Popehat on spying

our government is now dealing with the citizenry the same way that the British dealt with the Nazis: treating them as an external existential threat, spying on them, and taking pains to obfuscate the source of the information that they use to target their attacks.

Quote of the day

When Exposing a Crime is Treated as Committing a Crime, You Are Ruled By Criminals.

Wishing I was undocumented

I went out and did the right thing in forming a business by incorporating, paying taxes, and on and on. I wish I hadn’t. And this is why:

This is roughly two weeks’ mail received from either the IRS, Department of Labor, or other alphabet agencies. They tell me I need to file this form or that. Pay this fee or that. They’re in my head a minute at a time, in my time one trip to the post office at a time, and in my wallet a dollar at a time. Picking away with minutiae. The bureaucratic states of America. Who’s got time for that?

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
