The Stuff that Dreams are Made Of

What Are Your “Dream Guns?” Pick Any Three And Tell Us About Them [More]

I have none. I’ve made no secret about that (see #5 from 2006).  I’m in it for the rights .

That doesn’t mean I haven’t had fun, and if I had to name with what, I’d probably say a Ruger New Model Super Blackhawk, an M1 Garand and a MAK 90.

I have tried to attain a level of proficiency in what I do own (not that I’m publicly admitting to having any) for my own safety and the safety of those around me, but the hardware has never been what animated me. I’m in it for the principle.

That’s why you’ll never see me presuming to do a “gun review.”  Like the saying goes, “A man’s gotta know his limitations,” and I’m not only not qualified, all those who know more than me, which is a lot of gun owners,  would quickly and correctly label me a fraud if I tried.

I’ve actually turned down businesses who wanted me to test machineguns and write about them, and people who wanted to send me ammo to test and write about. That’s just not who I am nor why I do this.

It absolutely is.

Pay for your own “sporting purposes,” Fudds.

See how you like us being the ones throwing you under the bus for a change.

I Rest My Case

Young was charged with driving with a suspended license, felon in possession of a firearm, two counts of grand theft of a firearm, fleeing police, resisting an officer and a probation violation. Maloy was charged with possession of a controlled substance, resisting an officer and felon in possession of a firearm.

Tell me that doesn’t make the case for disarming you and me!

Spooking the Herd

In the United States, we live in a perpetual state of panic to the degree that the sound of glass shattering in one hotel causes mass hysteria the entire length of one of America’s most famous streets. [More]

What you mean “we,” Kemosabe?

Sounds like she plans on going right back to being a sniveling ungulate demanding government do something about those who aren’t.
