hide the goats

Not to toot my own horn too terribly hard, but some of us have been advocating this strategy for a little while now, for exactly the same reasons, but with relatively limited success… I guess folks need to aquire their own experience and come to their own conclusions, but …

our glorious president, unhinged

You just have to love it when a midterm election coerces the seated President (whose continued federal employment is not even up for debate, mind you) into making barely-veiled threats against the American people.

How is that? Well, look for yourself:

He added he expected pushback on his health

why i carry

In the space of a short news article and even shorter weblog post, Weer’d explains exactly why I chose to start carrying a firearm, and why I will continue to do so in the future:

A stronger man can beat a weaker man to death with nothing more than

Went for a walk in the woods…

…and found a suppressed, full auto AR in .458 SOCOM. Luckily I happened to have a photographer with me to document it. Click to embiggen.

Here is a beautiful shot where the brass had just ejected:

Doing a chamber check after emptying the magazine:

Note the smoke coming off the …

be like mike

At this point, the embossed Celtic Cross holster is definitely in the lead, with 25 out of 27 votes… which is good, because that is the one I was probably going to go with anywise. However, if you want a Dragon Leatherworks holster of your own with that design on …

And, yes, yes I did. …

dragon leatherworks flips the flatjack

I am going to preface this post with a very clear, very bold disclaimer: I suck at graphics manipulation, mock-ups, and whatever the hell else related to those kinds of things, so deal with it already. Additionally, said mock-ups are not necessarily to scale (and may not even be …

common sense gun laws

And speaking of the perversion of “common sense” by anti-rights nuts, it is fairly common knowledge now that Joan Peterson is a board member of the Brady Campaign, among other anti-rights organizations, but we did not know the extent or limits of her influence.

Well, consider this

reach out and touch something

A reader sent me the following question, and I had to honestly tell him that the only rifle calibers I have shot are .308Win and .223 (and .50BMG if you count that), so I figured I would post it for my readers to take a shot at:

I’ve posted comments

Guess I have my reading cut out for me. …

“gun control” in other areas

Since it seems like my “Citizen’s Permit to Vote” post might have stolen a few people’s thunders, I figure it is time to share some linky love and maybe make up for my quick fingers a little…

To begin with, Weer’d breaks out the analogy stick for some more beating

Thanks for continuing to tolerate me, babe. …

felons and guns

Convicted felons who have served their time and are released back into society can purchase all the gasoline they can afford.

Convicted felons can purchase all the bottles of propane they can afford.

Convicted felons can procure all the road flares they can afford… and carry.

Convicted felons can purchase …

quote of the day

This time, the quote of the day was vocalized by Sevesteen by way of a comment left at An NC Gun Blog:

When someone shoots back towards a spree shooter, the spree is over, with no more unarmed victims getting shot. I have been unable to find a single

this is just the beginning

Now that I have said my piece regarding one of the local elections, what about the national ones?

Frankly, I do not care.

Yeah, you heard me right – I do not really care who won what election, because history has proven it does not matter. Case in point: Our …

the lesser of two weevils

So apparently Bill Haslam is going to be Tennessee’s next governor.

Ask me in a year if I think that is a good thing.

However, for the time being, I will do the shocking, bipartisan thing, and agree with my “progressive” counterparts – Haslam’s unceasing and erratic flip-flopping gives …

dead zero

Ok, it has been a really good week for emails.

In addition to being sent a free copy of “The Gun” to review, and snagging my first spammer, it appears as though the good folks at Simon and Schuster are going to send me a copy of Dead

an equality amongst rights

About gorramed time.

First, it was the eight hour course that required me to take off an entire day of work, and fork over $200. Granted, the instructor did a pretty good job taking inordinately dry and repetitive material, and turning it into something that at least would not put …

and so it goes

Really, I should be laughing my ass off at this article, but I just cannot stop thinking about how well-and-truly screwed our country is, and how we, the American people, not only allowed to happen, but, in some cases, outright demanded that it happen:

For answers, I decided to
