Notes from the Resistance
Decades of national and state-level data on violent crime, homicide, and mass shooting show no consistent evidence that stricter gun laws reduce overall crime rates. [More]
Right, but as anyone with a brain knows, that’s just an excuse to give the suckers while they’re swindling them out of their rights, and never was what they’re intended to do.
When 300 pounds of attitude tears through your pasture… [Watch]
Oh, wait, Texas, not Tennessee…
Adds new meaning to the term “Turkey shoot“…

Tell me about the worst gun you’ve ever bought. I’m bored sitting in this dialysis chair [More]
As is no secret around here, I’m not a hardware guy (more of a bad pun guy) and have very few posts on guns per se as there are plenty with more qualified insights. I do wonder how many of the firearms being singled out would not have been included had they been used in a successful DGU.

The bill does not force any retailer to provide firearm storage, nor does it micromanage the agreement between them and a firearm owner… Additionally, the bill does not mandate storage by any firearm owner, nor does it provide a pathway for others to do so without the owner’s consent. [More]
Those would have been my two main concerns.
I guess I’m lucky this is not a situation I’ll likely find myself in. You know, because I don’t own guns– evil, nasty things always going around killing people…
Now, Dhillon has made no mention of being an experienced shooter. She’s not pretending that she’s an expert shot or anything like that. She’s learning. However, people criticizing her for not being an expert was troubling, to say the least. [More]
That there’s no shortage of d!ck gun owners feeds another meme.
The first time I shot a 1911, I missed a Foster’s Lager can.
If that makes you feel superior to me, I’m sure glad it’s not your life I’m living.

* It makes me feel old to have to explain I’m talking about the character, not the actor.
The Post has sought comment from Beretta and Ruger. [More]
Now seek one from NSSF and NRA, and ask them to articulate their positions on this and ask if they see any potential Second Amendment concerns legislation could be needed to address.

I put this together on ChatGPT to illustrate a point raised in my last article.
Who thinks the Bill of Rights would have been ratified if “except for prior restraint background checks, waiting periods and purchase/carry permits” had been tacked on right after “shall not be infringed”?
Poland surpasses 1 million registered guns as Poles continue to arm themselves [More]
Based on old numbers, it doesn’t seem out of line to speculate there are half again as many unregistered one.
Firearms manufacturers that closed down operations and filed for bankruptcy in 2025 included SCCY Industries LLC, whose assets were seized by the Volusia County Tax Office of Florida at its Daytona factory on March 11, 2025, for non-payment of tax debts of almost $250,000… And now, struggling firearms maker and dealer Custombilt Firearms Manufacturing LLC has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after battling the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives over its license in 2023 and 2024. [More]
So, unlike Big Rock, they’re both being shut down by governments headed by “pro-gun” administrations…?

Republican women are 14% more likely to own guns than Democrat men. [More]
That may not be a fair metric since one party knows how to define genders. Still, it’s telling.
And it also illustrates why new gun owners are nothing to crow about.
In terms of total numbers, I wouldn’t be starting any civil wars if I were that outgunned…
“‘The Matchless Enfield’ tells the story of the No. 4 sniper rifle and how it was developed and used,”… [More]
Every once in a while I break with tradition and actually talk about guns…
We talked about this here. Now we see:
How is this not a gun grab? [More]
Perhaps it’s a clever trap?

Gun that killed Charlie Kirk… [More]
Words have meaning. Does “conservative” Fox News really not know any better?
…is WWI-era rifle that may be untraceable…
Before serial numbers were a thing…? So “ghost guns” had always been (and still are!) “in common use at the time” until treasonous prohibitionists started defecating all over “shall not be infringed”…?
Kennedy’s health commission leaves guns out of its 20-page report [More]
I agree with critics that it should have mentioned guns, but not for the same reasons: If it purports “to help parents improve their children’s health,” it ought to include resources for development appropriate firearms training.

Sig limiting who can reply is not a good look and invites a Streisand effect response.

I want to take a minute to talk about a funky loophole in the NFA that the folks at Shockwave were able to figure out… [Watch]
And I want to take a minute to remind readers who figured it out first.

All in all, there is hardly any evidence that handgun waiting period laws make a difference in homicides or suicides… As far as suicides are concerned, they have no effect on either gun suicide rates or total suicide rates. [More]
Another prohibitionist bit of calculated misdirection, that is…
Everybody here is totally aware of Gun Facts and relies on it as a go-to resource, right?
New York Jets’ Sauce Gardner Goes Gun Shopping for AR-15 and Other Firearms [More]
He doesn’t appear to be a knee-jerk “liberal.”
