Need a gunsmith near Jacksonville, Fl?

Will, who I have been following for a while now, is open for business. I wish him the best of luck. It's been fascinating reading his journey and I am thankful he's put it up there for the world to see.... -
The Brady PSH Chart
Sharp as a Marble on March 18th, 2010
For many years, the Bristol Stool Chart has been an invaluable medical aid in classifying human feces. As the Brady Campaign and various other gun banners are prone to PSH I figured it would benefit the gun owners society if I, too, made a chart to classify the anti-gun's undie-soiling past time. ... -

This 82 year old grandmother would be dead She said she was just walking to her car with some groceries when she was approached by the suspect. She said, “In a very mild voice he said, ‘this is your day. You are too old to be alive anyway.’” Moments later she said he grabbed her cane and started beating her and she’s got the bruise... -
Trippy!
Sharp as a Marble on March 17th, 2010
Thanks to Alan at Snarky Bytes, I got to try some Miracle Fruit tablets tonight. Basically, the berry has a protein in it that shuts down the tongue's ability to taste the sour or bitter in foods. Instead, those flavors register as sweet. So, eating a lemon is like eating candy. Here's what I tried Lemon & Limes – Unbelievably sweet. The li... -
Need a smile put on your face?

Remember the story from yesterday about the gentleman who defended his life with his gun, killing one of his assailants? Then the picture here should make you smile A man who appears to be the homeowner (pictured left) returned home shortly after 8 a.m. and started cleaning his driveway of the blood left behind by the assailants.... -

You know what sucks? When you design a layout for a company that you like so much, you almost hope they don't want it so that you can use it for yourself. Alas, Bison Armory liked what I did. I hope you will as well ... -

Unix Jedi sent me this link I mean, crime in Gotham City doesn't exactly seem to be affected by a man dressed as a bat flapping around the place. But no-one disobeys a man wearing a necklace of human nipples. "I'm Batman" isn't cutting it in the striking-fear-into-their-hearts stakes. But "I'm Batman -- and I'm here for your n... -

I just did something I don't normally do, I deleted a post. I could see where it could be construed as giving really bad advice, so I took it down. You fill out the census form as you see fit. Not being a lawyer, it is not wise for me to say what is and isn't constitutionally legal about the census.... -

Having a gun is not a magic talisman

It will not ward off evil spirits or vanquish those who wish to harm you. What it does is in increase your chances of surviving an attack A man returning home from work was met at gunpoint overnight. Little did suspects know, he was armed with a gun of his own. It happened around 12:30 a.m. in the driveway of a quiet Ocoee neighborhood. T... -
What online tool would you, as a gunnie, find useful?
Sharp as a Marble on March 16th, 2010
The other day I ran across a website that would help you keep track of your range outings, such as shots fired, cartridges used, etc. For the life of me, I can't find the link, if I do I'll update this post. It got me to thinking though about how could I use my programming skills to improve the gun owning community. One of my problems in life is t... -
Half caliber desire
Sharp as a Marble on March 16th, 2010
Why is it I want both a Smith & Wesson Model 500 and a 50 BMG? What is it about firearms with exotic, expensive, and recoil-intenseness that appeal to me? Not too long ago, I was going a little YouTube surfing and ended up on a whole mess of S&W 500 videos that just made me drool. I'm just finishing up a web site design that I can't wait... -

Primers and powder and BBs oh my!
Sharp as a Marble on March 13th, 2010
Hit the gun show today. Found Federal Large Pistol Primers, some TiteGroup, and some .380 (reloads, but from a reputable source). The main gun dealer, Shoot Straight, was trying to sell 1000 primers for $50. Didn't feel like waiting around to tell one of their workers to shove 'em up his boss' ass at that price. Found the Federals for $35 per 1000... -

All-black penguin discovered King Penguins are notorious for their prim, tuxedoed appearance -- but a recently discovered all-black penguin seems unafraid to defy convention.

Substitutions for one of the rules
Sharp as a Marble on March 10th, 2010
I met Greg for dinner on Monday since he's heading out to Iraq for a year. Something we talked about suddenly popped into my head. We were discussing the whole accident vs. negligence thing and of course the 4 Rules were brought up. We as gunnies push them hard because you have to break two of them at a time to have bad juju happen. Then Greg brou... -

You know the type of people. Losing a debate, can’t think of anything to say worthwile so they resort to their primitive nature and begin making obscene remarks because they are intellectually spent.

Us Floridians have a whole heck of a lot of weirdoes, don't we? Florida Highway Patrol troopers say a two-vehicle crash Tuesday at Mile Marker 21 on Cudjoe Key was caused by a 37-year-old woman driver who was shaving her bikini area while her ex-husband took the wheel from the passenger seat. See, she was going to go meet her new boyfriend an... -

Or alternately titled "Let's start an impassioned argument early this week". One of the things I find myself getting caught up in is the gunny tendency to come down harder on my own kind than probably is required. All of us seem to jump at the chance to cluck our tongues at other gunnies who have misfortunate events happen to them, gener... -

See that guy over there?
Sharp as a Marble on March 4th, 2010
No. No you do not. And why do you not see that man over there? Because he's wearing a Ghillie Suit. Got an email last night from a gentleman who runs the Ghillie Suit Source and, being that I'm more than happy to help spread the word for small companies who sell products I can approve of, I figured I'd give them a link.

Since I can't seem to find it in me to come up with my own. Doc Zero The people of an orderly nation surrender the business of vengeance to the government, replacing it with the rule of law. They cannot be expected to surrender the right of defense. The right to protect yourself, and your family, from injury and death is an essential part of ... -
