Ammo For Sale

I’d like to have one

Sig will offer a version of the Army’s new handgun to the civilian market. Unfortunately, it will be a limited run of 5,000.

“journalism”

That’s some fact-checking. The WaPo’s alleged fact checker gave Pelosi’s asinine tweet about national reciprocity just 3 Pinocchios. The mental gymnastics for that are pretty weak sauce. Everything in it was an outright lie.

I have been successfully marketed to

Apparently, everywhere I look a company called UNTUCKit has been marketing to me. They make casual shirts designed to be worn untucked. I mean, you can tuck them if you want. But they’re tapered a bit differently and aren’t too long when not tucked. I am not certain if, as part of their marketing plan, the online ads targeted me because I’m a gun person and Google ad services would know that. But the idea intrigued me a bit. A lot of gun folks wear something akin to what Tam calls “the gun burka.” Or dress like, as PDB* called them, tactical hobos. You know, oversized shirts, shoot me first vests, etc. And I was one to wear a button down shirt untucked regularly.

Anyway, I finally bought one. And wore it out on my birthday. And then I bought five more. I like them. I bought a basic white shirt. And a few flannel shirts. And some other patterned shirts. They look great, hide my gun and hide my Clinch Pick. They look decent with a jacket and are well made shirts.

But make sure you size up. That was one of the first complaints I saw at Amazon on them. So instead of a large, I got the XL.

You can get them at Amazon or their website UNTUCKit.com.

* Peace be upon his blog.

Update: They do not appear to market to gun toters openly. But they probably should.

Words that are fun to say: Oumuamua

That is the name of the first interstellar object seen in our solar system. A Russian billionaire and some scientists are trying to see if it’s emitting signals.

I’m not saying it’s aliens . . .

Life in the future

From Netflix:

The one were still scratching our heads about, the person who watched Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl 365 days in a row (streamin me timbers?). An impressive feat, especially as the average member watched around 60 movies on Netflix this year.

I’m not sure what worries me more: that I now know that or that Netflix knows this about someone.

The future is stupid.

New strategy

Moms demand something or another have a new strategy: Running for office.

The shocking thing about the piece is that the Moms claim to have 70,000 members.

But you’ll give away your position!

Actual improvement. I’m a fan of my TLR 1-S.

The house passes reciprocity. Every body freak out.

Ah, the PSH is flowing. And I’m smiling.

First up, Governor Cuomo:

The appalling House vote for concealed carry reciprocity puts all New Yorkers at risk. This legislation would let individuals from out-of-state convicted of certain crimes carry hidden, loaded weapons in New York, in violation of New York’s much better, safer law. Only the NRA could propose something so ill-considered, dangerous and vile.

Lies in bold. Next, we have Bob Menendez (D-Ranged) threatening to break the law by unlawfully arresting those who would legally carry in his state.

And the MA AG has a whopper:

Reciprocity may be next deadly loophole in our nations gun laws

Look here, Sparky, I don’t have a fancy law degree not is profession in the law, like you. But a law is not a loophole.

Ah, the sweet, sweet tears.

There’s been a lot of this around here lately

Active shooter training comes to Tennessees Capitol Hill. Some locals were offering training to churches recently too.

Who doesn’t?

A Glock that fires when holstered. After market parts installed by the owner or junk in the holster?

On the 1911

You know I’m a fan of the black plastic people poppers in the S&W and Glock variety. And I just don’t really think the 1911 is a good carry gun. I’m not a fan because it has less capacity, is heavy, and I’ve seen too many of them go tango uniform. But I think this is absolutely correct: The Best 1911?

House passes National Reciprocity

Yay. And on to the Senate, where I have my doubts.

It has attached to it the Fix NICS amendment, and there are apparently some concerns that it expands the list of prohibited persons. But that claim doesn’t appear to be valid.

And also HAHA!

I had a bunch of links to the PSH about this bill but it got to be too much. But you can get a taste at The Gun Feed.

The banned played on

Justice and ATF are looking to ban bump stocks:

Possessing firearm parts that are used exclusively in converting a weapon into a machine gun is illegal, except for certain limited circumstances, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) said in a joint statement. Today we begin the process of determining whether or not bump stocks are covered by this prohibition.

That whole Vegas shooting thing has really dropped of the radar, hasn’t it? Wonder why.

Guns exploding

Seems there’s a suit against Savage because one of their front-stuffers tends to get explody. Now, first things first, I know very little about muzzle loaders. But it seems with that type of gun, there’s a lot of points in the loading process that could break down. Such as using too much powder, not seating a bullet, etc. Again, I know nothing about muzzle loaders other than what they are. Anyone experience something like that?

There’s derp

And then there’s dangerous derp.

Yup

A look into the mind of the other side. As I have said before: There simply cannot be peace between our people and its entirely because of different mentalities, world views and ways of thinking.
