First thing this morning, as Better Half and I were getting ready to head out to work, we looked outside, and it was snowing. Not enough for it to stick, what with the 37 degree temperature outside, but there were flakes accumulating on our deck and cars. Snowing. In …
After picking up my new toy from their gunsmiths yesterday (headspace checked out fine, which means I can start doing unconscionable things to it in the near future… but more on that later), I stood around and gleaned all kinds of interesting information from the good folks at Coal Creek …
Speaking as a military brat and a Navy veteran, I cannot say as though I have any complaint with this impending law:
(a) In General- Except as provided in subsection (c), the Secretary of Defense shall not prohibit, issue any requirement relating to, or collect or record any information
In case you were curious what you missed out on, both Brick and Les Jones have their Knoxville Shooty Shindig reports up. I had been planning on doing one of these about every other month, but with the LuckyGunner.com Blogger Shoot at the end of May, I might have to …
This is just another example of the many reasons why forcing people to disarm themselves before entering misleadingly-named “gun free” zones is a Very Bad Idea (TM):
A gun in a holster is safe. Put another way, when you handle a firearm, your chance of a negligent discharge goes from …
Speaking of things that set us apart, how often do you see something like this from the anti-rights side of the fence?

I have been shopping around for karate/martial arts studios in the area, and while I have not yet found one I think I am happy with, the process has been interesting and occasionally quite educational… And it produced today’s quote of the day, which comes by way of Master James …
Now that the ball is rolling on the slugthrower side of the house, it is time to start thinking about the glass that is going to be mounted on it… Here are the constraints:
Maximum Cost - $475. Ideally, this should include mounting options, but that is flexible. And, yes, …
Thankfully, through the smart choices of my parents and myself over the years, I have never had to face the particular challenges of living in a “rough” part of town… To be certain, Eastern Tennessee as a whole does have something of a significant drug problem, and Southern California was …

A lot of anti-rights cultists seem to extract no end of entertainment blathering on about the myth of how “guns are ‘bad news’ for women“, complete with proffering a seemingly endless stream of anecdotes and news stories to support their narrow-minded bigotry.
While it is not a topic I discuss here very often (mostly through my own relative ignorance), Better Half’s and my “when the excrement impacts the vectored air-impelling device” (otherwise known as “WTSHTF”) plan basically amounts to something my fellow military members and veterans are probably very familiar with – …
So the final tally after people bowing out due to illnesses and work was Brick, Les Jones, Rich, Lissa, and myself at the range, with Liston Matthews (briefly), Michael J. Mollenhour, and Better Half joining us at the restaurant… not a bad turnout, all things …
