    Dustin's Gun Blog on September 3rd, 2008
    I watched all the RNC speeches today & I have to say that although they were all very good, Sarah Palin really knocked it out of the park! She really delivered tonight. My entire family sat......
  • Glock 17 (Chambered for 9MM) Review
    Learn About Guns on September 3rd, 2008

Baus According to an Associated Television News/ Zogby poll, a strong majority of likely voters disagree with Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama on firearms and self-defense related issues, and that the opposition to Obama's stance on these issues is widespread across multiple demographics.

    Buckeye Firearms Assoc. on September 3rd, 2008
    By Gerard Valentino As we inch towards another anniversary of the September 11 attacks and the cowardly attack on Beslan School Number 1 in Russia, we have to wonder what the world has learned in the intervening years. In America, partisan bickering continues over the future in Iraq, and in Russia borders skirmishes continue over disputed provinces...
  • Upcoming law review articles on Heller
    Arms & The Law on September 3rd, 2008

  • Incredible
    Firearms and Freedom on September 3rd, 2008
    Sarah Palin just finished her speech. Incredible. Along with the stuff you would expect in a speech like this, an introduction and some nice words about her running mate, she took it straight to Obama and his campaign. It would have been easy to take lay off Obama, but she didn’t shy away from it at all:  “It’s easy to forget tha...
  • The Palin Speech
    Snowflakes in Hell on September 3rd, 2008
    Tonight Bitter and I watched Sarah Palin’s acceptance speech for the nomination for Vice President.  Palin definitely has her delivery down.  She even said Minnesota that weird way people from there say it, and she recovered from her one fumble with a grace George W. Bush only wishes he had.  What I did not get from her manner of speaking ...
  • How much experience is required for VP?
    Sharp as a Marble on September 3rd, 2008
    The answer isn't as simple as you might think. Many factors are in play, apparently. Because if you're a one term senator (and nothing else) and have pretty hair and a D after your name, it's not that important. Michael's point in spot on. The Democrats didn't seem to mind when fluffy pony boy was running for the #2 position. I don't remember there...

  • ONE FOR DAD
    Home on the Range on September 3rd, 2008
    I was hoping to see or talk to the folks over Labor Day but with the batphone ringing and 14 hour field days since, I was unable to. But they read the blog. . This is my Dad. He's just shy of 89. Yes 89. Mom has passed but Dad is happy and healthy, and remarried to a wonderful widowed lady we've known for years. We love her, and she's good for ...
  • Quote of the Day
    Snowflakes in Hell on September 3rd, 2008
    From Robb Allen on Sarah Palin: I’ve said before, she’s not perfect, she’s going to have skeletons in her closet, but we live in a time where Jesus himself couldn’t get elected because someone would bring up the whole unmarried mother thing and that he changed water into wine without a proper Class B Miracle license. Those a...

  • More Home Invasions in N. Texas
    A Keyboard and a .45 on September 3rd, 2008
    Home invasions are becoming more and more popular in North Texas. Some are quick, entering through a sliding glass door and grabbing the flat screen TV, others are more involved and include violence towards the family residing in the home. Most often the home appears to be targeted for a specific purpose. The goblins think there are guns, jewelry, ...

  • Is It Wrong to Criticize Good Intentions?
    Snowflakes in Hell on September 3rd, 2008
    I’ve heard this particular criticism in more than a few quarters, and not just in regards to Appleseed: The arrogance of thinking that any program that does not teach the way you do is “out of line” is just so bizarre, it is hard to fathom. Especially when we have such a high rate of success and happiness with the program. I might...

    I mentioned the Brownell's catalog in the previous post. If you're a hardcore gun geek like me, you've no doubt spent countless hours with your nose buried in it, poring over exotic sights, walnut rifle stocks, titanium bits, and reproduction vintage handgun grips. Also, if you are like me, you have pounded your head in frustration wondering "Who l...
