Glock in decline?
Monday, April 4th, 2011Discussion over at GunsForSale. Hardly, I think. You still hear often about their record sales. Glocks are here to stay. Well, the Generation 3s are. Not so sure about the Gen4 yet.

Bloomberg is a bit upset that you don’t seem to appreciate what he’s trying to do for you: Mayor Bloomberg scolded the nation Tuesday for failing to take on the gun lobby to restrict weapons sales. “This is just no courage on the part of Americans to stand up and say ‘Enough,’” Bloomberg said while […]
Because, while cities may not be able to ban guns, they can keep you from lawfully selling them there.
Gun control talks drive up stock price.
Interesting: Goodman-promoted gun shows now require background checks Sales between individuals at the events are exempt from the new rule. That sounds exactly like how federal law works. But: Bill Goodman Gun and Knife Shows have tightened rules governing who can buy guns at Hara Arena and other Goodman shows. Background checks of buyers are […]
MSNBC features LuckyGunner in article about Cali’s ammo ban going away.
The Glock is a “rampage gun“. ZOMG! people are buying Glock accessories. Glock pistol sales surge. Hell, scan the news for Glock.
Heh: [folks on the WaPo editorial booard] love the idea. Love it! But yeah, it’s probably illegal. Well, anti-gun folks tend to show disregard for the law when convenient. The National Shooting Sports Foundation responds: NSSF continues to oppose multiple sales reporting of semi-automatic rifles. Such reporting requirements will actually make it more difficult for […]
Because suppressors are the polite thing to do. Imagine a world where cars didn’t have mufflers and everyone had to wear earplugs to drive. Why restrict a basic safety accessory? A look a the paperwork and calls to get suppressors removed from the 1934 list of regulated weapons. And via Sebastian, a Brady board member […]
Anti-gun shill Garen J. Wintemute (and others): Federal law makes no distinction between sales occurring at gun shows and other sales; there is no such thing as a gun show loophole. Been saying that for years.
How dare you! Paul Helmke cannot believe that people would disagree about closing the gun show loophole. Part of the problem, Paul, is that there is no such thing and no loophole to close. Sales at gun shows are subject to the same rules as sales not at gun shows. I wonder how Maino and […]
A lawsuit challenging ammo sales restrictions.
Midwest Sporting Goods outside of Chicago sees an increase in customers.
The Comical Squeal notes NRA got their lobby on: Her message was clear: The gun lobby opposed an amendment to the bill that would have banned guns in businesses serving alcohol that derived less than half of its income from food sales. And the NRA considered lawmakers’ upcoming vote on the amendment “a weighted vote” […]
Or, rather, they’re losing: Not so long ago, Brady was pushing background checks, “assault gun” bans, checks for private sales, and whatnot. Today they’re hassling Starbucks (without result) and seeking publicity for praising a political has-been for something he did ten years ago. Which failed.

It’s black and has a lot of aluminum. But if it came in Flat Dark Earth, I’d have gotten one. And it needs rails I finally got tired of Google taunting me. And, based on the two car blegs, I made a choice. Last week, I picked up my Infiniti G37 (the Journey with the […]
Chicago area gun stores preparing for increased sales pending the McDonald case. Don’t know that I’d plan on it that much. I’m sure Daley and the machine will throw many more obstacles in the way.
In AL: Demario Terrell Davis’ 2004 arrest on a misdemeanor marijuana charge popped up on a federally required background check when he sought to buy a military-style rifle the following winter. Criminal history records did not reveal the outcome of that arrest, however. Government checkers had three business days to find the answer, according to […]
So, ATF is sticking to its story that an airsoft toy can be converted into a machine gun. I’d like to see someone produce one because, so far, I don’t see how it is possible. One, the pins don’t quite line up. Two, the fire control group won’t fit in the receiver. And the things […]
So says the Gothamist. The NY Daily news quotes: “The city has never broken the law, but we have caught unscrupulous gun dealers selling in violation of federal law,” Post said. No. Since the original stings had to be illegal if illegal sales occurred. The second stings involved no law-breaking since they didn’t complete a […]
Residents are upset about the gun ban mentioned earlier.
NC Candidate is having a machine gun social. Someone get this guy to King.
NRA-ILA: FBI Reports Huge Decrease In Murders As Firearm, Ammunition And “Large” Magazine Sales Soar Last week, the FBI issued its preliminary 2009 crime report, showing that the number of murders in the first half of 2009 decreased 10 percent compared to the first half of 2008. If the trend holds for the remainder of […]
$1.5M of taxpayer money spent spent on investigation out of state gun dealers.
The claim is that a poll of people who said they were NRA members support all kinds of gun control. And that those controls are reasonable, like banning sales to folks on watchlists. But 79% from the same poll say Obama will ban guns. Is that also reasonable? More on the polls here, including bogus […]
The latest Shooting Illustrated (one of the better gun mags out there and the price is right for NRA members at under $10) had a bit on the various tactical 22LR rifles out there. I hear their new site will go live in January and you’ll be able to see the article and some video. […]
And this is neither. An editorial over the recent case that overturned Tennessee’s guns in restaurants laws: The ruling that the new law allowing people with handgun permits to bring guns into restaurants serving alcohol is “unconstitutionally vague” guarantees further debate on the issue when the Legislature reconvenes in January. It does. And we will […]
We had the Obama Gun Sale Spike and people thought it was leveling off and prices were coming down. But S&W’s sales were up 49%.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
