Omega suppressor: the shortest, lightest and quietest full-auto centerfire rifle silencer on the market.

Every Town For Gun Safety is offering training on how to report on gun violence:

Reporting on gun violence – on individual incidents, policy shifts and polarized political debate – is a major challenge for journalists and news organizations. Every day, 86 Americans die of firearm related injuries, including nearly 12,000 murdered with guns each year – a rate 20 times higher than that of other developed countries. Nearly 100 school shootings have occurred since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary only two years ago.

When it comes to reporting on guns, local and regional reporters bear the primary burden. They are often trapped into narrow deadline-driven beats with little time to develop expert sources, investigative angles or broader perspectives. And newsrooms and news managers are unprepared for the overwhelming, spasmodic tragedy of mass shootings. As a consequence, incidents of gun violence are too often viewed in isolation as random, inevitable tragedy rather than part of a wider phenomenon with complex causes but amenable to prevention efforts.

I’m certain it will be objective and comply with journalistic standards. Wait, those are actually mutually exclusive.

Well, not me. But Robb is.

Rick Santorum, no thanks.

Sig P220. Also, they’ll be some new ones in 10mm.

Bradenton.com:

A Bradenton manufacturer of lead-free ammunition has won more than $15 million in a patent infringement lawsuit against the federal government.

Liberty Ammunition filed suit against the Department of Defense in 2011, claiming that the Department of the Army used Liberty’s trade secrets to produce “enhanced performance rounds” for military rifles that were nearly identical to a bullet Liberty patented. The Army has been using lead-free bullets for several years produced by other manufacturers working under military contract.

Police hopeful seeks Christie pardon after legally owned gun turns him into a convict. Seems he left a gun in his car to take to the range later and wound up not going to the range. The gun wasn’t locked up in the trunk by mistake. Then, he got pulled over and it’s New Jersey.

GH&G has their SHOT page up and running

I have a reasonable understanding of the workings of the AR but I always thought that the AK functioned by some sort of commie magic. But here’s how it works:

Hah

Kevin on the NRA’s influence.

Publicola opposes them. And some thoughts from Joe.

While I’m inclined to agree, that battle has been fought and lost. Time to move on to other things, I think.

Contrary to media narrative, gun sales are steadily increasing

Let’s ban human silhouette targets because I’m not smart. Except for police, of course.

DC’s new mayor has somewhat of a cognitive disconnect:

If it was up to me, we wouldn’t have any handguns in the District of Columbia. I swear to protect the Constitution and what the courts say, but I will do it in the most restrictive way as possible.

Emphasis added.

John Lott tells you why the more guns = more crime study is bunk

Corker calls for federal gas tax hike

I’ve mentioned this before but here’s another video on the Multiple Impact Bullet:

So, your handgun now has a spread pattern? I wonder what IDPA has to say about this.

Not sure what NRA-ILA has going on but their news articles don’t contain links to the news. See here and here.

Words that are fun to try to say: Mitrailleuses

Ruger 9E

France has strict gun laws. Why didn’t that save Charlie Hebdo victims?

Of course, the solution is more gun control!

Beretta made a bunch of changes to their handgun. But the Army is still looking:

U.S. Army weapons officials will not evaluate an improved version of the service’s Cold War-era 9mm pistol, choosing instead to search for a more modern soldier sidearm.

In early December, Beretta USA, the maker of the U.S. military’s M9 pistol for 30 years, submitted its modernized M9A3 as a possible alternative to the Army’s Modular Handgun System program — an effort to replace the M9 with a more powerful, state-of-the-art pistol.

The improved M9 features new sights, a rail for mounting lights and accessories, better ergonomics and improved reliability, Beretta USA officials said.

George Zimmerman arrested on aggravated assault charges.

Seem to have it out for this guy. I wonder if it’s bogus like last time.

You are going to be on your own

Awwww

Ended with the owner shot and killed and three suspects shot. The owner’s wife is OK.

Well, through it, mostly.

But he came here to push free college for everyone, which is a myth. Because someone has to pay. And he celebrated manufacturing innovations. He pushed education and manufacturing while shutting down a couple of schools and a couple of manufacturers for the day.

As he left, the plane flew over our house. The Mrs. got the kids so they could see Air Force One fly over. Junior looks up and says: “Why are you so excited. We didn’t vote for him”

Good for him for walking a mile and all that:

Educational for him and for me.

I follow a couple of local groups where locals buy, trade, sell guns and gun gear with each other. Always had a good experience whenever I’ve dealt on the boards. But, it seems like every other day someone posts a sale for a Tapco’d out SKS with a crappy scope on it and wants $600 for it. And, because of the rules, I can’t reply with “If you take all that Tapco shit and the horrid scope off of it and put the original stuff back on it, I’ll give you $100”

And, since I can’t do that on those boards, I’m doing it here.
