Shooting the Worst Gun Ever

Life intrudes. Talk amongst yourselves.

A woman wrote a book called How to Murder Your Husband was arrested for murdering her husband. Of course, her social media presence consists of bashing the NRA.

For the first and second amendment. California has a law prohibiting gun shops from using pictures of guns. A court struck the law down on first amendment grounds.

Apparently, Google execs tried to influence the election for Hillary.

Black Rifle Coffee Company is coming to Tennessee:

Veteran-owned and operated Black Rifle Coffee Company is proud to announce the opening of its Manchester, Tennessee, roasting facility as part of the company’s $6 million investment in that state. Combined with their Utah facility, the Tennessee plant will ensure that consumers all over America receive the freshest coffee available, roasted to order and delivered right to their door.

“As our company grows, so does our need to be close to our customers,” said Evan Hafer, the CEO and founder of Black Rifle Coffee Company. “Opening the roasting facility in Tennessee gives us the ability to deliver the highest-quality product to the entire eastern half of the United States in the most cost-efficient and timely manner possible.”

People put forth a lot of time and effort in getting around NFA laws. The latest is the bicep brace:

Basically, because some gun laws ban things “that are shouldered”, this, and the arm braces before them, get around the whole shouldering thing. It’s ATF approved.

Alex Jones is either a lunatic or an actor. But he’s basically been banned from all social media. And one of the manosphere bloggers I’m unfamiliar with has had his books banned at Amazon.

I know, corporations own their platforms and all of that but it is a bit disturbing that they wield such an influence over people and their wallets.

Glock 30, a forgotten glock. I bought mine during the assault weapons ban. And my thinking was that if I was limited to 10 rounds, it may as well be ten rounds of .45 because “stopping power”. That was kind of ignorant. But that’s what people thought back then.

For just south of $23K, you can have a full auto AR. Legally.

Impressive round count

Joe had a kaboom from a double charged round. This is why you wear glasses.

Bloomberg discovers the Office of Civilian Marksmanship Program. Freaks a little:

At a time when Americans are sharply divided over the place of firearms in society, the U.S. government has, in effect, subsidized the metamorphosis of CMP into a deep-pocketed, nationwide evangelist for youth gun culture. The group has survived and thrived, despite repeated attempts by politicians to shut off its gun pipeline.

Yeah, turns out, not so much.

Years back, I lived in a subdivision of about 200 houses. And, as I got to know my neighbors, a good portion of them were from Chicago. If I had to guess, I’d say at least 25 of them. So, at a neighborhood shindig, I finally asked a group of them why so many people from Chicago lived here. And they said for the jobs. Turns out, there was some sort of advertising campaign that had signs telling people to move to Tennessee. Specifically, East Tennessee.

Well, it looks like might happen again over taxes:

They want us to write another check and shut up.

Or move. More residents left Illinois last year than did residents of any other state.

So Im sorry, Tennessee. This is why were jamming up your roads, schools and workplaces. Were replacing your dive-bar barbecue with our pizza and craft beers. Were barging into your comforting Southern twang with hard vowels and incomplete sentences. Were invading at a record pace, so get used to frunchroom and Hey der. Did you know a recent study found the Chicago accent to be the least attractive in the country? Do you agree yet?

Well, don’t come here and shit up our state with the policies you’re fleeing.

Dianne Feinstein Wants Brett Kavanaugh to ‘Reconcile’ His Second Amendment Reasoning With ‘Hundreds of School Shootings’ That Never Happened

After being constantly inundated with praise for John McCain last week, I’m kind of glad that’s out of the news. Someone should probably go to Annapolis and see if the stone has been rolled away and make sure he’s still there.

Single-Handed Shooting: Why Practice It?

* Those of you have taken a Rangemaster class will get that.

It’s funny that a group that starts out with a purpose of helping an oppressed minority later wants special rights denied to the “other”.

David Media Hogg and De Blasio teamed up to create a gun control group called Mayors for our Lives. Given the past mayor focused group to take on the issue keeps delivering, I’m sure this one will too.

I’ve spoken of it before. But I have an interest in ancient styles of execution. More of a morbid curiosity. It’s not that like it or anything weird like that. It just amazes me at how creative someone could be in their cruelty.

Some of these methods are just horrifying. But here’s a youtube on some methods that is mostly safe to watch.

The Democrat said:

Dean said in an interview last week that banning bump stocks, increasing the purchasing age for assault-style weapons to 21 and bolstering the state’s background check system were “reasonable proposals.”

And the Republican said:

I dont think that we should look at more restrictions and more regulations on gun ownership
