Army moves forward with Modular Handgun System

Janes:

The US Department of Defense (DoD) will downselect a total of three preferred bidders in the third quarter of 2016 as its Modular Handgun System (MHS) programme continues on course despite recent calls to replace the effort with a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solution.

In April, US Army Chief of Staff General Mark Milley suggested procuring 9×19 mm Glock 19 handguns to replace legacy Beretta M9 handguns instead of a more complicated modified solution in line with the MHS original solicitation. The total programme could comprise a requirement for up to 500,000 weapon systems destined to equip army, navy, and air force personnel as well as the US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM).

As to which guns are possibilities:

Entrants are understood to include Beretta’s APX, Cesk zbrojovka’s CZ P-09, FN Herstal’s Five-Seven Mk 2, General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GDOTS) and Smith & Wesson’s M&P polymer handgun; the Glock 17 and 22; and Sig Sauer’s P320. However, sources informed IHS Jane’s that the DoD had yet to make a final decision regarding calibre of the MHS, although 9×19 mm and .40 calibre appear to be favourites at the moment.

.40s and the FiveSeven in that list. Thought they would stick with El Nino.

Buying the election

Bloomberg has bought up all the ad time in Nevada to push for a gun control measure on the ballot.

Then why lie?

If your case is so strong.

And Obama saying he’s never advocated confiscating guns is a bit funny. He’s just endorsed the idea but never said that.

NRA on Clinton

They’ve hitched their wagon to the Trump train, more accurately the not-Hillary train. And they’re non too happy with Clinton’s position on the Civil Right Victory in Heller:

The New York article describes a scene at a Clinton campaign rally at the University of Bridgeport in Connecticut. While speaking with a family that lost a loved one in the Sandy Hook shooting, Clinton tells them of her plans for gun control. During this interaction, Clinton described Heller as a terrible decision. According to the article, Clinton also explained that she has already discussed gun control with Chuck Schumer, who will likely be leading the Senate Democrats in 2017.

Back on September 25, 2015, Hillary Clinton attended a private fundraiser in Greenwich Village, New York City. An audio recording of the event captured Clinton telling those gathered, the Supreme Court is wrong on the Second Amendment. And I am going to make that case every chance I get.

And the gun control lobby has endorsed Hillary.

All according to plan

The media have reached a turning point in covering Donald Trump. He may not survive it.

Katie Couric’s producers repeatedly violated federal gun laws. I’m sure they’ll get the David Gregory treatment.

God speed, Ray

Got word that Ray Carter has passed away. I never met the man in the real world. But I’m familiar with his work on gun rights and gay rights. We’ve lost a good one.

His website is here.
