2026 BFA-PAC Grades and Endorsements for the Ohio Primary [More]
Nothing to say about the main event?
In a way, the silence is a positive– it may show the leadership is aware of member sentiment, that not all are kneejerk swallowing the establishment line, and that they want to keep their options open.
In this photo provided by the North Korean government, its leader Kim Jong Un’s daughter, center, tries out a new pistol at a factory producing pistols and other light arms at an undisclosed place in North Korea Wednesday, March 11, 2026… The daughter is thought to be about 13 years old and named Ju Ae.

See, they don’t hate guns.
The good news is, they’re training to be blind to side threats…
Gunmen on bikes storm Nigeria village on Palm Sunday, killing at least 20 [More]
You wonder how they can continually get away with it.
Yes, but Colion Noir is the son of Nigerian immigrants, some will argue, as if the exception of one who qualifies as meeting the intent of the Preamble makes the rule that applies to the rest.
Until the deniers are ready to deal in overall numbers, “democracy” will be a trap.
I don’t typically blog here on weekends, but this is too rich and relevant to recent posts to pass up.

Relevant UPDATE
Oh, and this is every bit as rich, if not richer:
Thank you to our Christian communities for the contribution you make.
Putsch Responds to Firearms News’ 2A Inquiry [More]
He walks the talk.
Also: There’s a real difference for Ohio gun owners to consider in the primary.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing criticism from local politicians and onlookers on social media over comments he made that critics say places blame on guns rather than criminals in an incident involving the shooting death of a 7-month-old child in Brooklyn. [More]
The April 2026 issue of Firearms News, featuring my articles “Disparaging Armed Citizens Undermines Trump Administration’s Credibility” (p. 22) and “Cekada Heading ATF Still a No-Win Scenario for Gun Owners” (p. 26) is now available at diverse, equitable, and inclusive newsstands throughout the Republic.
Whoever he picks will have to go through the Senate Judiciary Committee, where Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said in an interview with CNN that the next nominee must align with his views on the Jan. 6, 2021, riots at the U.S. Capitol. “The threshold for somebody following Pam Bondi ends the moment I hear they say one thing that excused the events of January 6,” Tillis said. “I’ve been very clear on that. So I hope whoever they have in mind to follow General Bondi is very clear-eyed about my position on January 6.” [More]
That the Republicans would put this weasel in charge goes to show their continued seeming self-inflicted losses are deliberate.
A candidate worth having would read him the riot act and tell him to go f_ himself.
A former staffer to Joe Biden shot and killed his girlfriend on March 24 in San Francisco… Nation Wood, 25, claims he was dry-firing a firearm, which led to the shooting. [More]
Biden, you magnificent bastard, he read your book!

FORENSIC BREAKDOWN: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s and First Lady Rama Duwaji’s Wikipedia pages have been systematically sanitized, with praise for terrorists softened, endorsement of deadly attacks minimized, and verified racial & homophobic slurs blocked. [More]
Wikipedia commits lies of omission?

Any potential acquisition by Italian Beretta would place a major US defense and firearms manufacturer with operations in three key battleground states — under foreign ownership. [More]
So the concern is for the standing army, not the militia of the whole people? Why does Ruger’s main concern not being the Second Amendment not surprise me?
As for Beretta, anyone else note the irony of their HQ being in Luxembourg?
Gun manufacturers… most don’t deserve us, you know…

In 2023, 320,000 children were born to unauthorized or temporary immigrant mothers inside the US, granting them automatic Citizenship — This Accounted for 9% of ALL AMERICAN BIRTHS that year [More]
Give ’em a generation or three, right, guys?
According to the report, Hudson informed officers that he was carrying a firearm and voluntarily handed over a 9mm Smith & Wesson handgun. [More]
Just what Minnesota needs to take the focus off Democrats.
“Poor choices were made” …? These guys never stop being politicians, do they?
Charge Engen with falsification/obstruction, or don’t charge the rest of us if we’re caught lying to police. I don’t care how he is on guns, except for how being discredited invites attacks on all his positions, and what I read here makes me think he’s a squish who’s OK with taking a scalpel with a light touch to RKBA.
Hegseth announces military can apply to carry guns on post [Watch]
Past time.
I spoke with him in detail a few days back and submitted the results of our talk to Firearms News. My editor tells me it will be online either today or tomorrow and has gotten in under the wire to make the print version, going to press Monday and should in subscriber mailboxes/on news stands for several days before the primary.
I didn’t really know that much about him or what to expect in terms of how deeply and sincerely he would walk the talk, but I gotta say, my conclusion is we’re dealing with the real deal, we’re dealing with someone who doesn’t need to put himself out there for all the crap he’ll have to put up with, and we’re dealing with someone we’ll be damn fortunate to have in office, especially after enduring the wretched likes of Kass-Itch and the bipolar Mike DeWine.
Add in Vivek Ramaswamy declaring ““The idea of a heritage American is about as loony as anything the woke left has actually put up” while working to bring in a demographic that is 83% anti-gun, and readers here know how I feel about that.
If you’re an Ohio (or any other state) gun owner who agrees with me, you’ve gotta see what’s in it for you by spreading the word, getting out the vote, and supporting his campaign with much-needed donations. (I just made out a check he’ll get next week because of the Win-Red processing fee. And in the interest of disclaimers/disclosures, I hadn’t made up my mind to do this until after I’d submitted the mag article for publication.)
Tangentially-Related UPDATE
I couldn’t help juxtaposing watching him handling those guns with this bit of Republican phoniness designed to suck in the gunrubes:
Pam Bondi already fired as attorney general, Cabinet official teed up as replacement: sources [More]
He’s NRA A- rated and endorsed…
Not that that’s always a good indicator…
UPDATE
Looks like it’s Todd Blanche.
He says the right words about 2A. He could have picked a better example.
I’m wondering if there’s another reason…
