If you can:
Katelyn Francis is all of 13 years old, and I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in admitting that she shot that stage far better than I could ever hope to at the moment.
Of course, that short video also neatly undermines a massive number of arguments put forward by your average anti-rights cultist – "assault weapons have no sporting purpose", "assault rifles have no sporting purpose", "children cannot be [...]

This is an assault rifle:
This is an “assault weapon”:
Can you spot what makes one an “assault rifle” and one an “assault weapon”? I will give you a few hints: it is not the stock, the pistol grip, the sights, the barrel length, or the fact that the top one has a flat-top upper receiver.
Nope, the answer is quite simple: assault rifles are capable of fully-automatic fire, while [...]

"Gun control" extremists get terribly upset when I accurately refer to them as anti-rights cultists, but I have made my case for that phrase, and, impressively, no one has found fault with my logic, not even the cultists themselves.
However, those poor, misunderstood, persecuted, downtrodden, and otherwise marginalized cultists get even more terribly upset when I accurately refer to them as "fetishists"; unfortunately for them, that shoe not only fits, it appears it was [...]

… Because now I am seriously considering acquiring a “real” AK-pattern firearm just because I can (and, no, Vera does not count; she may look the same, but damn).
So what brought about this sudden interest? Only Our Glorious President mouthing off and proving himself to be the petty “gun control” authoritarian we always knew him to be:
“I – like most Americans – believe that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual the [...]

But you knew that already.
Apparently Mr. Fat-Ass Lard-Ball himself had a "conversation"* with Piers Morgan over the non-existent merits of "gun control" here in the United States, and while I am going to try very, very hard to ignore the rest of his idiocy, this particular comment stood out in stark relief from the rest of his bigoted screed:
And I wish that we would just live in this century.
We [...]

Last month, I wrote a post about how Better Half and I gave up on Top Shot, but continue to watch Sons of Guns for a variety of reasons mostly centering around drama, entertainment value, and genuineness.
This month, I have to admit they are starting to lose me, but not for the reasons you think.
In one episode, Will and his crew take a Mk19 40mm grenade launcher, slap a suppressor on [...]

Once again, this post is invariably going to annoy the hell out of a lot of people – if you want to avoid the drama, just skip on past, and go about your merry business.
Back in March, I wrote a post documenting my annoyance with Lucky Gunner’s mishandling of an ammunition give-away they were running on M.D. Creekmore’s webpage, explaining, in full detail, the various steps where that particular organization royally screwed up the [...]

If you ever want to disabuse yourself of the romantic notion of working for, or even owning, a firearm shop, sit yourself down and have a nice chat with someone who actually does one of those things, and your dreams and aspirations will vanish tout suite. As with so many other jobs, it would not be too bad if it were not for the paperwork, which borders on the nightmarish – on the one hand, [...]

Why, it seems like just a few days ago when I observed that registration of firearms invariably leads to their confiscation…
Oh wait. It was only a few days ago.
At any rate, turns out I was right:
Several gun owners are refusing to surrender a semi-automatic rifle that was imported from China and bought legally before the RCMP retroactively declared it a prohibited weapon.

Firearms that have been allowed into [...]
