Governor to pen executive order banning gun purchases to those on the no fly list. How does a state get its hands on the list?

Happy Thanksgiving

Thursday, November 26th, 2015

To you and yours. And, some good news: Rounding out the list of pro-gun provisions is section 1087, which restores authorization to the Secretary of Defense to transfer to the Civilian Marksmanship Program surplus M1911 and M1911A1 .45 ACP pistols for sale to the public. The component of the CMP that dispenses the pistols would […]

Oregon shooting stuff

Friday, October 2nd, 2015

Having just passed all that gun control, there was still a school shooting. He was targeting Christians. Reports came in saying he was a conservative, a Nazi, racist, and had ties to some sort of Muslim group. I’ve yet to see any of those confirmed. Obama says mass shootings are something we should politicize. While […]

Shocking!

Criminals don’t get their guns from the internet or gun shows. They buy them on the street.

Taxing a right

Tuesday, August 11th, 2015

In Seattle, a tax on gun purchases will face a legal challenge. Seems the city may have violated state law.

Obviously going as planned

Sunday, January 25th, 2015

The D&C: Jackson Guns and Ammo Shop in Henrietta closed its doors last week after the owner decided it was too difficult to continue business under New York state’s gun regulations. Kordell Jackson ran his gun shop out of two locations in Henrietta and Scottsville, and had a large following of firearm owners on the […]

Moms demand, Kroger yawns

Despite Watts’ best efforts, Kroger still posted increased sales. Gun control is a loser.

Sig discontinuing SB-15 stand alones

Saturday, December 6th, 2014

Osage County Guns: We’ve just received notice from Sig Sauer that as of the first of next year, they’ll be discontinuing sales of the stand-alone pistol braces (PSB’s) without the buffer tube kit, both the current PSB models and the newer SBX models. So, you have to get the full kit. I just snagged two […]

In Mexico

Gun rights activists struggle: Luis Merino may be the loneliest gun rights activist in North America. Like a kid in a pastry shop, he gazes longingly into the display cases of 9mm handguns and sleek semi­automatic rifles here at the Directorate of Arms and Munitions Sales, the only gun store in this entire country. Run […]

Winning

Sunday, April 27th, 2014

NFA sales up 380% from 2005-2013. The ATF also wants to hire 15 more people to process NFA transfers. I’m not sure why this check can’t be done in less than 2 minutes what with NICS and all.

The rise in popularity of silencers

WTF is this? OURBUDGET? C&P and screen cap for memory hole:

Facebook to everyone: We’re just going to keep doing what we were doing and obey the law

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014

So, Moms Demand Traction threatened to hold their breath until they turned blue unless facebook stopped allowing users to engage in lawful commerce. Facebook released a statement with language that appears to have satisfied the Mad Moms, even though the statement is more like we’ll keep doing what we do but make sure no one […]

Only mostly dead

Friday, December 13th, 2013

A year after Newtown, gun control is basically dead. I might be worried about his job too.

That’ll happen

Thursday, December 12th, 2013

Just mentioned how anti-gun people were desperate and went to Europe to ask their gun makers to support policies that negatively affect their sales. Yeah, I know, right? Well, Jersey is trying the same thing: That’s why Jersey City will help start to transform the thinking about guns. Police departments are huge buyers of guns […]

Desperation

Tuesday, December 10th, 2013

Anti-gunners are going to Europe to lobby makers of guns there not to sell guns here. Or to at least restrict sales. Yeah, asking someone to not make a profit is going to work.

ATF at work

Monday, September 30th, 2013

A watchdog report shows they go a brain-damaged man to set up a gun store and make illegal sales. Operation cigarette walker.

Dick’s to resume selling AR-15s

Good. Companies like profitable sales.

In other news, people still read magazines

But gun magazine sales are up.

Hat trick

Monday, June 10th, 2013

Not sure the last time I bought a hat. Being a gunblogger of some renown, I just always seem to get them. Each time I go to some shindig, I manage to leave with a whole lot of hats. Now, I’ve managed to get non gun hats. I get most of my supplies for the […]

The market speaks

Wednesday, May 8th, 2013

And it says “don’t piss off your customers“: Following the Newtown shooting spree, Dick’s Sporting Goods changed their policy and stopped selling AR-pattern and other semi-automatic, magazine-fed rifles, even the guns they had already sold. … At a time where the only thing a company has to do to sell firearms, ammo and accessories is […]

Terrorists

Sunday, April 28th, 2013

I buy a lot of landscaping. And my latest purchases featured these: Note the tag that says “killer tree”. I asked the sales guy what that meant. Seems these plants come from Oregon and they have a hippie problem where in the tree-huggers go in and plant spikes in trees hoping to hurt someone who […]

Bad timing

Saturday, April 20th, 2013

I’m sure after Boston, the immigration debate is dead. So, does this really look like a good idea? OBAMA, HOLDER PUSH TO LOOSEN GUN SALE RESTRICTIONS—FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS I’m all for legal immigrants getting guns but, I think now, that idea is politically unlikely.

U mad, bro?

Friday, April 19th, 2013

Obama is still butthurt over his loss. So, he’s going the executive order route: Federal law bans certain mentally ill people from purchasing firearms, but not all states are providing data to stop the prohibited sales to the FBI’s background check system. A federal review last year found 17 states contributed fewer than 10 mental […]

But one thing is for certain. “Manchin-Toomey” is fun to say

Monday, April 15th, 2013

Go ahead, try it. Anyway, at first I was like Hey, it’s not terrible and if it does what the press releases said, some parts are pretty good. But then, the bill showed up. It’s all manner of not good and Dave Kopel tells you why: The result of the disparity is “pro-gun” provisions which […]

“common use at the time”

Monday, March 11th, 2013

A look at the AR-15: Anyone who thinks Hardy is an extremist, far from the mainstream, should wake up. The AR-15, which isn’t a brand but rather a generic design, accounts for an estimated 60 percent of all civilian rifle sales in the United States and perhaps a quarter of all firearms sold, according to […]

And in boycott NY news

Thursday, February 28th, 2013

Wilson to stop sales. So does GunUp. Magpul allows distributors to continue sales to NY. Not like they can stop. I’m glad to see some companies stop sales there but not all are going to. So, stop eating our own over this.

The law is for all people

Sunday, February 10th, 2013

LaRue issues a press release: Effective today, in an effort to see that no legal mistakes are made by LaRue Tactical and/or its employees, we will apply all current State and Local Laws (as applied to civilians) to state and local law enforcement / government agencies. In other words, LaRue Tactical will limit all sales […]
