More to the Story

Ghost gun, other firearms confiscated; 2 people arrested… The arrested individuals were eventually released after the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office declined to press charges. [More]

That would be this guy.

There’s a tale here that needs to be ferreted out and told. So, is the “real reporter” going to follow up on this or move on to the next filler piece?

Someone should ask:

Now Make Gun Laws Treasonous Idiot-Proof

Proposed law would require gun makers to make firearms switch-proof [More]

In other words, ban most existing semiautos. Then on to the next grab.

With an Only Ones standing army exemption, of course… not to mention Chi-Town gangs.

This is one area where “in common use” will work in our favor, but the proponents know that. They’re just in-your-face harassing and know that if they do pass this abomination, the state has unlimited tax plunder to dip into, whereas gun groups will have to once more go to shallow pocket donors for legal costs.

“They are already manufacturing guns you can’t convert”…?

This is exactly what the treasonous bastards tried to do with “smart guns” in New Jersey.

You don’t hate Illinois Nazis enough.

Commonsense LEGO Safety Laws

“We’re here to talk about a roughly one-inch piece of plastic. It looks innocuous enough, a little like a LEGO or a k’nex block. But this one-inch piece of plastic is killing people,” said Leigha Simonton, the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Texas. “Machine gun conversion devices can turn Second Amendment-protected firearms into illegal weapons of war, and petty criminals into brutal killers. We cannot have our streets turned into war zones.” [More]

So the federal government has the authority to ban a one-inch piece of plastic– just like the Founders intended. And it’s killing people… does this broad ever listen to herself?

What the hell does Simpleton think “Second Amendment-protected firearms” were intended to be?

NY Gun Prohibitionist’s Convertible Pistol Bill Could Ban All Semiautomatics

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?

New York Wants to Ban All Semiautomatics

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.

Bait and Switch

Guns now deadlier due to tiny attachments made by 3-D printer [Watch]

They say that like it’s a bad thing…

And like the Founders didn’t consider “every terrible implement of the soldier” to be “the birthright of an American,” and “necessary to the security of a free State.”

See, here’s the thing– I know I can be trusted not to abuse my right to arms, and so can everyone I’m friends with.

So what do we do about those who can’t?

The answer certainly isn’t controlling you and me.

And the genie is out.

Bait and Switch

We’re all about patterns here and when I see the ATF put out three different exposes against local, local and then national, one in Tulsa, one in DC, and now Steve Dettelbach on a national network, NBC around how ineffectual the NFA is because of giggle switches or Glock switches, there’s a hidden motive, I’m telling you, something’s up. [Watch]

Good catch.

Thing is, the NFA has always been ineffective.

Double-Plus-Ungood

The devices, commonly called Glock switches or auto sears, are already illegal under the federal National Firearms Act. [More]

And now they’ll be even more illegal!

What anyone who’s proven he can’t be trusted with these is doing without a custodian is left unsaid.

We’re the Only Ones Hysterical Enough

“It turns a semi-automatic firearm into, essentially, a machine gun,” explained Estevan. “So, instead of one round being discharged from a firearm with the single pull of the trigger, when the switch is installed onto a firearm, you’re looking at 1,200 rounds with the single pull of the trigger within a minute.” [More]

Sounds like you need a massage there, SAC Estevan.

Did you tell them you’d need a magazine, what, 40 feet long…?
