Intuit won’t process credit card transactions for gun purchases: In the email the company wrote “Intuit does not support the services you are providing” and then the reason stated was firearms, ammunition, gun parts and accessories sales not sold in a face-to-face environment with the credit card being swiped. I use quickbooks online to manage […]

From Diane Feinstein. Instead of two evil features, it’s one evil feature that calls for a ban. Also, grandfathered weapons would fall under the NFA ($200 tax and lengthy sales process) like machine guns. No thanks.

Diane Feinstein proposes gun confiscation. Cuomo says confiscation could be an option. Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them all in. Well, come and get them. A newer, just as useless assault weapons ban proposed in CT, which already had one. And didn’t stop a shooting. A 50% tax on ammo and a ban on online […]

The gunosphere is ablaze with a lot of ZOMG IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD with respect to gun rights and gun control. It’s not. As Sebastian says: This is not our last stand, it is theirs. And this is true. NRA membership has risen drastically recently. Anywhere you go to buy guns or magazines, […]

Gun and ammo prices soar. Stock of gun companies drops.

At the New York Times

Venezuela bans commercial sales of firearms. And if there’s two things socialists don’t like it’s commercial sales and people owning guns.

Todd Clark Designs is donating 10% of May sales to the NRA foundation. Click here for some nice jewelry made from ammo casings.

ATF made up a rule where folks in border states had to report multiple rifles sales. This rule is of questionable legality. But they’ll still investigate you for it. Also, looks a lot like an unlawful database to me: The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said Wednesday that it is not looking […]

It’s coinciding with the increase in gun ownership. A couple of articles lament why. First up is politics and fear from the Martin fallout. In Washington, looks like it’s a cut in police dollars.

Gun companies doing well.

Tam on guns and guns sales, then and now. Also, I never would have thought 10 or 15 years ago I’d be getting gun news from law professors.

Sales up 24%!

Ruger rocking sales

Google is anti-gun part 187: I have a blog about hunting, and like many other bloggers who want to monetize their labors of love, I am a member of the Google Affiliate Network. The network allows us publishers to promote products sold by advertisers and receive a commission on any sales that result from our […]

I received a copy of a letter from Andrew M. Molchan of the American Firearms Industry and publisher of the American Firearms Industry Magazine. Well, used to be. Seems the magazine has stopped publishing for a few reasons outlined in the letter: I stopped publishing AFI for a number of reason. First, 90% of all […]

Forbes notices gun sale are exploding Elle magazine (yeah, that one) does a bit on Should I Buy A Gun? CMMG 6.8 Upper for sale. At Sears.

As “America’s top gunblogger“, I get lots of emails from companies and people in the gun and gun accessories business. I get every thing, including product launches, press releases, fundraising requests, sales notifications, and the occasional “this is secret, don’t release it, wink wink”. Now, I do appreciate it and will, generally, mention new products. […]

You can hop on the internet and have a gun shipped to your door. That’s a lie but it’s the narrative put forth by Bloomberg. Dealers ship the guns to other dealers who perform background checks. It’s also against Craigslist policy to advertise guns. Also, a seller is not required to ask questions. If a […]

Gallup: 47% of American households own a gun, up from 41% just a year ago. Of course, it’s 47% that admit it.

NSSF: Black Friday Sees Record Background Checks for Firearm Purchases Even USA Today picked up on it.

The Paper of Making Up The Record gets its stupid on about Fast and Furious and concludes with: It’s Congress’s failure to ban sales of assault weapons that is feeding the drug wars. Yes because back in 1995, the drug cartels were killing people with rocks and sticks.

Illegal firearms sales by California police. Another law enforcement agency putting guns on the street.

As a general rule, I’m with the Wiz on not assuming debt for day to day expenses, namely credit card debt. But I think he’s way off base in targeting the pay it off every month crowd. Credit cards are convenient for tracking costs, but so is a debit card. Also, I think he’s off […]

Over the multiple rifle sales reporting requirement. So is the NRA.

From FoxNews: 1. U.S. Defense Department shipments to Latin America, known and tracked by the U.S. State Department as “foreign military sales.” 2. Weapons ordered by the Mexican government, tracked by the State Department as “direct commercial sales.” 3. Aging, but plentiful arsenals of military weapon stores in Honduras, Guatemala and Nicaragua. And they rightly […]

Cracking down on guns: When people think about terrorism, they tend to envision bombs, hostages and hijackings. But the future of terrorism increasingly belongs to the humble gun. From Frankfurt to Mumbai and beyond, terrorists are making the gun their primary weapon of choice. Nowhere is this threat more troubling than here in the United […]

Obama is working on gun control under the radar: While the Obama administration said it is committed to gun rights, a gun control advocate has spilled the beans, saying Obama is using stealth to work on firearms restrictions. The Washington Post did a story on Steve Croley, the White House gun control czar. Crowley is […]

Reuters reported that 70% of comments on ATF’s inquiry on multiple rifle sales supported the measure. Digging into it, John found that there was some sort of bulk mailing going on that originated from Mayors Against Guns.
