Just woke up about 5 mins ago.  Alarm clock is set to AM radio.  Some sort of talk radio thing. Anyway, the host is discussing the Starbucks gun issue.  He claims that if gun rights activists reeled in the open carry movement, then gun rights could move forward much quicker. He then compared this to the gay leather community and gay acceptance.�...

Some time ago, I watched something on cable teevee.  It had to do with the introduction of smokeless cartridges back in the day.  And the narrator stated that one of the complaints, of smokeless cartridges, by police, was that during gun fights, they could not see where the bad guys where.  Because there was no smoke to place their locations. So...

Went to a Gun Show at the Cobb County Civic Center here in Georgia.  Would that be in the Atlanta metro area?  Not sure how that works in these parts. Anyway, I was really shocked to a lack of Jerky vendors.  One guy, in a remote corner, was selling Jerky along with firearms related goods, so I wouldn’t consider him a Jerky vendor.  But I...

What can I say.  People from NJ have a special ability to find Diners anywhere they go. ...

Maybe not.  Maybe More Porn = Less Crime. As the use of porn increases, sex crimes usually decline or do not increase at all according to a study done by a University of Hawaii professor and director of the Pacific Center for Sex and Society Article ...

“[Businesses] shouldn’t be coerced, like they’re being coerced by the Brady Campaign,” Loomis said to nods of agreement. “We’re not trying to abridge Starbucks’ rights. … They are.” ARTICLE via Roberta X ...

When fellow NJ gun owners, practically cite bradybots word for word regarding a licensing system for gun owners, on the grounds that *Hey, you need a license to drive a car*, and defend that view with as much venom as the anti gun folks, it’s really game over. Just shovel that last load of dirt on the grave already. ...

I’m not too sure what to expect.  I really expect nothing to change.  It will take lawsuits, which take money.  I’m just very surprised that, currently, there are so few gun related bills introduced to the NJ Legislature.  Cause the way NJ Government seems to work is: Don’t like it?  Too bad.  Take us to court.  Which leads...

JUSTICE BREYER:   **When it’s free speech versus life, we very often decide in favor of life. Here every case will be on one side guns, on the other side human life.** Abortion versus Life. Just something that caught my eye in the McDonald transcript HERE UPDATE:  Gotta love that slant *one side guns, other side life*.  What an ass. ...

For McDonald vs. Chicago. We have the right for health and safety to pass reasonable laws dealing with the protection and health of the people of the city of Chicago,” Daley said. Remember folks, the US Supreme Court has already ruled that Government has no duty to protect the individual. For my fellow NJ’ans, the NJ Superior Court rul...

“If you want to dress up and go out and make a little political theater by frightening children in the local Starbucks, if that’s what you want to spend your energy on, go right ahead,” said Peter Hamm, a spokesman for the Brady campaign ARTICLE ...

A 7-month-old baby survived alone for three days with a bullet wound in its chest beside the bodies of its parents and brother, who died in an apparent suicide pact brought on by the couple’s terror of global warming. The cops found a letter on the table alluding to the couple’s worry about global warming and their anger at the government�...

“If you want to dress up and go out and make a little political theater by frightening children in the local Starbucks, if that’s what you want to spend your energy on, go right ahead,” said Peter Hamm, a spokesman for the Brady campaign You’re right Peter.  What about the children.  Surely any responsible Parent would ...

I mean who can take them seriously.  Fuzzy math, and outrageous statements.  Do they really believe what they right?  I can’t help myself anymore, when I read about people who use their stat’s, I just can’t stop chuckling.  If you believe what they say, there’s a guy in Brooklyn with a bridge to sell to you. From America...

Surprised to see so little action on the legislative front here in the Garden State.  I went to the NJ Legislature website, and searched using the following terms : Firearms Guns Ammunition And here’s what sparked my interest (you’re mileage may vary); Bill 2246 – Clears up the confusion regarding possession of hollow point bu...

I’m told this guy does it all by hand. ...

Some folks were chattin’ about putting laser sights on black powder guns to help see through all the smoke.  But this would be more period correct I’d reckon. ...

So, since I’m in Atlanta GA for the next few weeks for work, I’m been googling gunnie type things to do.  And since I’m interested in getting into AR 15’s for long range, I was thinking of taking this class.  $125 fee might be a decent investment to see if I even like shooting AR’s, plus a few other things, like, hop...

Gonna be blobbin’ from Atlanta GA for a bunch of weeks.  Seems work opportunities brought me south of the Mason Dixon Line. Already scoped out a number of Cowboy clubs in the area.  Looks like I didn’t bring enough supplies for all those possibilities.  Haven’t pulled that old timey trigger in a number of months. Good thing I&#...

While sitting in the local Diner waiting to order my Taylor Ham sandwich, I looked out the window and noticed a man going into convulsions in the crosswalk on the other side of the street.  I asked my lunch partner if she noticed any Cops in the joint cause I didn’t see any, and as I glanced out the window again, I noticed some people trying...

Just reviewed Brady Bunchs’s NJ’s scorecard. Even though NJ does not have gun shows, and from what I’m told, it’s cause you can’t sell firearms at a location other than where your FFL is registered. But that doesn’t stop them from giving us a low score on the dreaded Gun Show Loophole. I don’t think any Sta...

One good thing about having offshored customer service, with regards to credit cards, is that you don’t get a bunch of crap, higher limits or lower interest rates, when closing your account. Me:  I’d like to close my account today. Them:  Sure thing.  Can you confirm some information on the account? Me:  Yes.  Blah. Blah Blah. Them...

Need to unload some Cowboy guns this year.  Just realized how much stuff I actually got today!  Just made a pact with myself that I only maintain, and purchase items I intend to use.  Multi purpose is bonus points from here on in. ...

Seems there was a shooting in Newark NJ.  Appears that some guy got bounced from a bar/club due to questionable ID, came back dealing in gunsmoke, and ended up on the wrong side of the grass shortly afterwards. But ya just gotta love this reporting; A veteran off-duty Essex County sheriff’s officer.….repeatedly firing his service revolver&...

Seems that the next new category in SASS could be Outlaw.  I was bummed when Frontier Cartridge Gunfighter didn’t make the cut this past December, but there’s a number of shoots that due recognize it.  And it seems that there are a few that recognize Outlaw as well. What is Outlaw?  Well, Outlaw is shot either duelist, double duelis...

I don’t know squat about the AR platform of rifles. An AR rifle is on my wish list.  Been looking at .223 for ammo economy.  From what I’ve seen, I can round out a day nicely without hurtin’ the wallet too badly. Lookin’ for something that I can do long range with (here in NJ, the longest range is 600yards, but seems like ...

“Mrs. Albert F. Walker of this town has been declared 1937 women’s skeet shooting champion of the country by the National Skeet Shooting Association.

Learning to reload wholly is easy. Just fill it to the rim, and you’re good to go. Reloaded a few hundred .38spl with black, and a some test rounds of 25.20.  Not sure how much flame and smoke will come from those little cases, but we’ll see.  My father said he shot black 25.20 rounds and still remembers the smoke and flame. These nex...
