I might say a few things that will upset people in this article, but perhaps they need to be said. ... And women, please stop being the willing pawns of retards with guns and video cameras. There are a lot of idiots in the world. I don't think any country has a monopoly on them, but the (nonexistent) law of averages says the United States has to have quite a few. Unfortunately, as there is no checkbox on an ATF form 4473 that asks whether or not the purchaser of… Read More

Coming Out of the Closet – So To Speak
I now work full-time for LuckyGunner. If you like what I do here, you'll like what will soon be coming from them (perhaps I should say "us"). Regular blog readers and YouTube channel viewers might be interested to know how this will affect the blog. I don't foresee any changes in format, quality, or objectivity. Although the blog is what first put me on their radar, it isn't part of the deal, and it remains for me to use as I see fit. I first met with some LuckyGunner folks… Read More
Identify That Pistol
There are three Kahr pistols in this video - 9mm, .40, and .45. Which is which?
My Piranha Bodyguard Knife Broke
After four years of faithful service, my Piranha Bodyguard knife no longer fires when I hit the button. I can get the blade out if I press the button and flick my wrist, so I'm not too upset, but I'll see how good their lifetime warranty is. Here's a horrible video I made about it earlier this year.
Kahr CW9…An Early Christmas Present
...for my dad, that is. He won't officially receive the Kahr CW9 until Christmas, but we went to the range yesterday and fired approximately 200 rounds of various 147gr JHP (Gold Dot, Ranger T, Ranger Bonded, HST, Federal Tactical Bonded) as well as another 50 or so mixed FMJ of all weights - it functioned perfectly. Recoil was noticeably less than the CW45, although it still exhibited some degree of what I would call "trigger guard slap."
My Christmas Wish – No More AR-15 Manufacturers
Dear Santa, I haven't asked for anything from you in a long time, mainly because my life is pretty good and I don't really need anything. This year, though, I'd really like for my wish to come true. Please prevent new AR-15 manufacturers from starting up. I know it's a terribly anti-free-market thing to wish for, but I'm getting really tired of all the new AR-15 companies out there. It was hard enough when we only had a few dozen to choose from - now, everyone with an LLC and… Read More
I’m Thankful For a Good Shooting Range
At the moment, I feel blessed to have a great range near where I live. The facilities are basic, but that's just fine with me - and the ranges themselves are generously sized, allowing me to shoot while moving if I so desire. The longest rifle range is just 200 yards, but if I feel the need to shoot farther than that, another nearby range offers 1000 yard shooting. While the personnel at these ranges are extremely safety-conscious, and I don't want to give any other impression, they are unlikely… Read More
The Citizen’s Armory Has a New Website
After a site update rendered the "shopping cart" portion of his webstore, The Citizen's Armory, useless, my good friend "Two-Liver" had to manually create a new site, which took a week to complete. I'm happy to report that everything's back up now, and his site looks a heck of a lot spiffier than it used to. If you haven't seen TCA, you should know that they sell, among other things, small parts for ARs and Glocks - and ship them for very low prices. Also, if you notice that some… Read More
BLM Hastily Decides Not to Restrict Shooting on Public Land, Sort Of
As a followup to yesterday's post, "Odie" pointed me to a new article on US News regarding BLM and public shooting. As it turns out, the whole thing was just a big misunderstanding, according to BLM.
BLM Moves to Restrict Shooting on Public Land
While this might not be of much interest to my international viewers, who might be puzzled to find that Americans can simply find a desolate spot in the wilderness and shoot to their heart's content, it should make a lot of Americans sit up and take notice. The Bureau of Land Management, part of the executive branch of the US federal government under the Department of the Interior, wants to severely restrict, if not ban outright, shooting on public lands. Why? Because "urban" people might "freak out" when they hear… Read More
