We’re the Only Ones Off Target Enough

But one of the most disturbing details from the report is certainly that the agent who discovered Routh fired six rounds from a distance of five feet and failed to hit the target even once. How is that even possible? I’m not a trained agent, and I’m sure I could have hit that target at least once with that many shots at such close range. This is a whole new level of incompetence that simply cannot be comprehended. [More]

Every person I’ve taken shooting for the first time has done better than that.

How did he pass requisite pistol training standards, and for that matter, what are they? Somebody ought to be pulling his records and — not to kneejerk cast unfounded aspersions — also asking if he had reasons not to hit the target.

None Dare Call It Treason

The Biden administration is using its final weeks to haul a massive amount of border wall materials away from the southern border to be sold off in a government auction, an apparent effort to hinder President-elect Donald Trump’s effort to secure the border, The Daily Wire has learned. [More]

The same people who want our guns want more illegal aliens. Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

The Pursuit of Excellence

Mike Waidelich’s Legacy in Combat Shooting [More]

I generally don’t feature guns or training here because I focus on rights and leave hardware and use aspects of 2A advocacy to those competent to present it.

In this case I’ll make an exception. Author Bob Jewell, who I corresponded with and met over a decade ago, contacted me and let me know about his piece in USCCA’s Concealed Carry, and I think enough readers here will both learn from it and appreciate it as a tribute to the memory of a man and his achievements.

This is Your Brain on Guns

They’re not against the Second Amendment but guns are an addiction.

Good grief.

I suspect Lt. Guim’Mara Berry has drunk the Kool-Aid, but do you think the warden actually swallows the coil extruding from his mouth or does he just say it because it’s a paycheck and his masters have team player expectations?

Which of the 12 steps is blaming the inanimate and absolving yourself of personal choices?

Get back to me on this after the “graduates” have hit the streets. I wonder what would happen if one of them paid gushing Damon Connolly a visit.

But what happened is exactly what the prohibitionists will use to force lock-up-your-safety edicts on the rest of us.

And what does it mean, “Police don’t know where the child found the unsecured gun”? Did they ask the person urging everyone to forget about “what happened”?

If these people did journalism, we’d have the backstory.

Fighting Fire with Slide Fire

Today, Gun Owners of America announced its support for a lawsuit brought forth by Slide Fire Solutions against the U.S. government, which challenges the 2018 ban and unconstitutional confiscation of bump stocks under the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment. [More]

If any others want to come forward and file complaints, I’ll attest to this, with signatures to prove who I met with:

I asked if anyone else had come to reclaim their property and was told I was the only one, that others had forfeited theirs, and that one business that had made stocks wrote the loss off on taxes.
