Notes from the Resistance
Influencers need to be able to prepare Trump to debate on the right to arms and to coach him on what the correct responses to questions should be. [More]
No matter who the Democrat candidate turns out to be, Trump needs to learn to talk 2A, and it’s up to “Gun Owners for Trump” to demand his ear.

One would think the daughter of Hmong refugees taken into this country would take the time to appreciate why freedoms recognized here make it different from the tyranny her family fled. [More]
Funny, who doesn’t trust YOU with guns…
How a foreign national can take the oath of office, required by Article. VI. of the Constitution, without any conflict of loyalty is left unaddressed. [More]
Why bring in blue helmeted mercenaries when you’re already sitting on a ready reserve?
Let a parasite know it will be fed and it will return to suck out the rest. [More]
The goal is to disarm Americans by making supplying them with arms too costly, and caving in to extortion will only encourage more. There need to be personal consequences for frivolous filings.
Should You Use NFA Weapons for Self Defense? A Practical Perspective [More]
Use whatever you can get to in time, and don’t let distractions impede swift action. There’ll be no trumped up charges to face later if you don’t survive.
Just read your article on Ammoland about the commas in the 2nd. I’ve been researching this myself for many years and have many old books that have the 2nd, written, I believe, in its original form. It only had one comma. [More]
WarOnGuns Correspondent Patrick F documents a “Constitutional Conundrum” that never seemed to trouble anyone until recently. I included all of his observations and the four photographs he sent me. He suggests I use these for my further research on the matter, but in truth, he’s a better authority than I am on this. I was going to write this up for AmmoLand but decided I could not improve on what he has written and people should read it all.
I believe what he has assembled is important to confirming Founding intent and think it would be helpful to call it to the attention of the Supreme Court to bolster what the majority has already concluded. I don’t really know how to do that so maybe I’ll just send them a letter.
It’s clear that the FBI has no intention of responding, which makes fair another question: Why? [More]
Just who do you think works for whom anyway…?
In other words, if a tyrannical government does repeal the Second Amendment, it will not take away our right to keep and bear arms. Only we can give that up. [More]
You tell these guys to give it because their posterity wants to argue over punctuation.
Whether you appreciate firearms for reasons of technical interest, design, performance, or historical knowledge, or all of the above, L42A1: King of the Enfield Sniper Rifles hits all targets… [More]
Every once in a while I like to take a break from screaming at cars over politics and just have fun with a good old-fashioned weapon of war.
If this doesn’t change, correction, if we don’t change that, gun owners will be telling two supposedly opposite groups they can get away with more betrayals and infringements. [More]
Establishment Republicans and Prohibitionist Democrats just got a pretty good snapshot of gun owner willingness to walk the talk.
There is no valid reason the government can give that should supersede the rights of deceased veterans’ survivors, certainly nothing that would comply with the Bruen standard of history, text, and tradition at the time the Constitution was ratified. [More]
Kinda puts the lie to those Lee Greenwood lyrics…
They rely on violent crime so that they have blood to dance in, to whip up mob furor among constituents ignorant and stupid enough to vote for them. [More]
Why punish their constituents when they can punish you?
So, if we’re to believe Markey, Warren, and Pressley, MAIG cities are using racist technology to over police and violate Black and Latino civil rights. [More]
When leftist priorities collide…
How long Alliant’s absence from the reloading marketplace may last is unknown. [More]
This is a job for… Joe Biden…?
To make funds available for the preservation of commercial manufacturing capability for defense grade nitrocellulose.
With the way he’s going these days, he’ll probably instruct ATF to write a rule declaring cotton an NFA item…

It’s all consistent with a wider movement among Democrats and urban minorities to shift responsibility away from perpetrators and blame violent crime on guns. [More]
So, who are the sources, carriers and spreaders of that “epidemic of gun violence” Democrats are trying to swindle us out of our rights over?
To publicly excuse himself from going along with what he knows to be wrong, the sheriff offered an unconvincing anecdote “involving a man having a mental health crisis” [More]
Someone needs to tell this “Only One” that “just following orders” is not as good look…
It’s a game Republicans play all the time, stirring up hope when they know they won’t have to make good on things and nothing will change. [More]
Much ado about nothing…
Arkansas Attorney General Suddenly Mum About Fatal ATF Raid [More]
Although Brewer represents the gun rights organization, he has also donated thousands of dollars to anti-gun candidates like Beto O’Rourke, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton. [More]
We’ve talked before about bringing mercenaries into inner circles who don’t share principles — including Beto/Hillary/Biden donor Bill Brewer.
And:
AmmoLand News has also been told that former Congressman Bob Barr will be the next President of the NRA. Mr. Barr is currently on the Board of Directors and is the only one that AmmoLand News knows of who has had a negligent discharge of a firearm. According to our sources at the NRA, Mr. Barr is a Brewer loyalist.
It’s time to refresh some memories.

The grabbers will include semi-auto rifles in the mix, and as long as they’re on a roll, why limit the qualifiers to internal devices like switches and sears? As long as they’re being redundantly obsessive, why not ban firearms that external devices like “bump stocks” can be attached to? [More]
But no one’s talking about taking your guns, right?
Proposed legislation in New York could make the state in the nation the first to block gun makers from selling pistols if they don’t take measures to prevent them from being able to be converted to fire like machine guns. [More]
I just submitted an AmmoLand article on this.
Discouraging women from defending themselves with the greatest equalizer yet devised and encouraging ignorance and fear is a major part of the gun prohibitionists’ unified propaganda effort. [More]
Why would anyone who’s not a willfilly ignorant dolt listen to bleating incompetents about anything?

With all the cases that need funding and political battles that need to be fought, it’s crucial not to squander precious resources. When a “group’s” headquarters is a PO Box at a UPS Store, it pays to investigate further to see what donations really pay for.
If this were untrue it would be actionable.
In other words, the plaintiffs know they have nothing of merit, so they’re throwing everything against the wall to see if anything sticks. [More]
In a just world, the case would be thrown out as frivolous, plaintiffs would pay defendant attorney fees and court costs, and the ambulance-chasing “civil rights” lawyer would be fined and threatened with disbarment if he ever pulled this crap again.
Republican Rep. Reed Ingram “feels” the state’s 2022 permitless carry law, where “anyone over 19 years old can carry a concealed handgun without a permit, background check or training,” is a “bad bill.” Now “he intends to file a bill that would instead require someone to be 21 to conceal carry. They would also have to pass a hunter safety course or get a permit from the sheriff’s office.” [More]
With Republicans like this jackass, who needs Democrats?
What all those pages in the FOIA response did not do is provide what was being asked for. [More]
I wonder why they won’t share where they get the authority to strong-arm permanent gun disabilities without due process and that are not statutorily authorized from…
Perhaps it’s natural for people who know they can’t trust themselves to project their moral defects onto everybody else. [More]
Hoist with her own petard…
1st where are the fudds? Chip Curry is anti-gun and again where are the fudds? As a life long resident and sportsman of ME. and now a senior citizen I have NEVER been contacted by MIF&W. Besides it is not the job of IF&W to teach how to clean your AR. They are spending $ that is supposed to go to supporting wildlife supposed to be game animals not this B.S. PLUS, what moron would trust anyone associated with the Mill’s admin, not to keep records of who is in attendance and what they have. Lastly Where are the fudds? David Codrea, ME. has enough anti-2A going on with out your B.S. You sir are an @$$hat. [More]
Somebody was rubbed the wrong way.
As for where the Fudds are, reading is your friend: See objections to the class quoted in the article :
“I am a lifelong deer hunter and own several rifles and shotguns. I have never in my life seen a hunter in the woods of Maine using an AR style rifle for hunting.”
And:
“I consider myself an advocate for gun rights, I’ve grown up in Maine. I understand that Maine IFW does not make the gun laws for our country. I don’t believe anyone should be able to own AR style weapons…”
And it is the job– by law:
“The commissioner shall establish a program for training individuals in the safe handling of firearms.”
So yeah, funds go to that. Is your contention that it’s not in the state’s interest to make sure people it issues hunting licenses to can’t do it safely? As for funds going exclusively to wildlife and game animals, gun owners who aren’t hunters also subsidize that with higher prices to offset manufacturers and importers paying the federal excise infringement.
As for “what moron would trust anyone associated with the Mill’s admin, not to keep records,” I assume the “life long sportsman” got his guns through an FFL and gets licenses to hunt?
So, pointing out Fudds and antis objecting to the training and noting their hostility to ARs is “anti-2A … B.S.”?
Where are the Fudds? I think I just got done responding to one.
A handful of antis and Fudds repeating tired old lies was enough to get the Department to cave. As for their excuse that it was too soon after the Lewistown shooting, the question not being asked is what does a known nutjob going ballistic after being left alone by fearful authorities have to do with peaceable citizens and their lawfully owned rifles– and will the time ever come when prohibitionists don’t object to such training? If the maniac rammed his car into a group of people, would Maine cancel drivers ed classes? [More]
Ceding to prejudice, ignorance, and fear is no way to run a department.
