the best belt and soldiers’ angels

I might actually be getting good at this… Since yesterday, thanks to some more kind generosity, the donation amount for the Soldiers Angels Fundraiser and Giveaway was pushed up to $405, as the ticker to the left shows. My personal goal was to get this shindig to four digits, …

almost like clockwork

I suppose I should be thankful that some things in this world will remain constant, no matter how much everything else around us changes.

It would appear as though wanna-be gunblogger and certified attention whore Robert Farago is still being a dick, and a rather ineffective one at that

open carry stops crime… again

Take a look at this story:

What happened next, to my mind, can only be attributed to the fact that I was OC.

As he drew parallel to me, he looked at me, looked at my firearm, looked at me again and stopped. He stared at me for about

dragon leatherworks and soldiers’ angels

Despite having only announced my Soldiers’ Angels Fundraiser and Giveaway a week ago, and despite that week including a long holiday weekend, the gunblogger community has already donated $355 to that outstanding organization (you can keep up with the donations with the ticker near the top of the left column …

reclaiming the language

As a firearm owner and firm defender of our individual rights, one of the more aggravating things I stumble across on the cortex from time to time are Fudds proclaiming the demonic natures and other dangers of "evil black rifles" / "assault weapons" / etc., while simultaneously bitterly clinging to …

[1900 10JAN12 Update: Changes/updates to this page since 2100 03JAN12 have been italicized.]

I knew announcing the Soldiers’ Angels Fundraiser and Giveaway the week before Thanksgiving was kind of a bad idea, but I …

‘tis the season

I know I am already asking a bit of you, my readers, with my ongoing Soldiers’ Angels fundraiser, but this is the season of giving after all, and, personally, one of my favorite charities is Toys For Tots.  If you can give at all, every dollar helps, but …

soldier’s angels fundraiser, update the second

Even with the holiday weekend understandably peeling people’s eyes away from their computers (I plan on doing another big announcement post tomorrow, complete with pictures of all the prizes and some clarification on the rules), the response so far to the Soldiers’ Angels fundraiser has been pretty impressive – $25 …

nice rack

Has anyone had any experience with the Armory Racks series of pistol racks, or the Hyskore Modular Pistol Rack (sold at the NRA Store), or any of the other variations on a theme out there?

Better Half and I recently changed our dresser solutions, and while the drawers are …

a perfect post for the day

In all honesty, I consider Ann Barnhardt to be something of a loon, but I give her credit for pissing off radical liberals, violent Islamists, and anti-rights cultists all with equal aplomb.

And now I give her credit for saying that which we all know, but none of

giving thanks, in more ways than one

Hopefully you all are currently enjoying some happy and thankful times with your families at the moment, but even though my Soldiers’ Angels fundraiser is only a little over a day old, I have some exciting news.

First, Jason over at Empty Mags has offered up one of his brand-spanking-new …

pare it down

Unlike the previous firearm featured on this site, this is a pretty awesome idea (and, ironically, is probably better suited for zombie-dispatching than the supposed "Zombie Slayer"):

support your overseas soldier

Hopefully you have already decided where your Thanksgiving dinner is going to be held, and you are working on the setting for your Christmas festivities, but not all of us have the ability to make such plans for the impending holidays. Having had the distinct… "privilege"… of being away from …

flipside wallet, follow-up

As hard as it is to take pictures of firearms without highlighting the scratches in their finishes, you would think taking pictures of a plastic wallet to show the scratches would be easier… 

Anywise, back in May, the good folks at FlipSide Wallet provided me a test-and-evaluation unit after I …

patching your updates

Do you use an HTC Incredible on Verizon? Been letting it automatically update? Do yourself a favor, click Menu -> Settings -> About Phone -> Software Information, and take a look at the "Android version" and "Software number" – if the former is showing "2.3.4" and the latter is showing …

now doking

If they can import this little bugger to the United States (doubtful, given our idiotic importation laws), and if it is in any way "affordable" (even more doubtful, given the class it is competing in), and if it actually manages to live up to its advertised specifications ("divine intervention" …

get “angry”

The author of yesterday’s quote of the day kept on tweeting his idiocy for most of the day, capping off a long string of personal attacks and ad hominems with the accusation that I am an "angry" person and have "anger issues". I cannot see as how that is particularly …
