I find this highly offensive
The only Assault going on here is the assault on Lawful Gun Owners. The Brady Campaign needs to remember that Gun Owners tend to be Voters and are politically aware.
Let’s also note that there is no such thing as “Assault Clips”. So anytime you hear anyone say that… Correct them. There is no such thing for one, for the other – it’s a magazine not a clip. Then remind them that the Assault Weapons Ban did NOTHING to curb crime when Clinton did it. And when the ban sunsetted and went away – Violence and Crime didn’t go up.
The other thing that’s offensive is the blocking of firearm related websites. MadOgre.com is often blocked because of weapons related posts. What’s offensive is that in a lot of these places that block gun sites – they don’t block pornography. Porn is OKAY, but Guns are a No-No. THAT is highly offensive. So much so, that there should be a Class Action Lawsuit. Firearms are protected by the Constitution, perfectly legal… yet some how more seedy than porn? Which would you rather have your employees looking at while at work? Information about a gun or gun safety, or barely legal teen lesbians? Come on.
Flaming Hot Chips
Discussion here at the gun counter. Talking about snack foods. Someone mentioned “Flaming Hot Chips”.
Ogre: “Wasn’t that a Cop Show in San Francisco?”
Fenris: “Heeeeyyyy, ssslow dooown!”
Ogre: “You get a super special ticket!”
Oh man… laughed so hard, I have tears.
SIG’s Mistake
SIG normally makes fantastic handguns.
And then they make the Mosquito. They used to have a fantastic .22 auto in the form of the Trailside. They traded out of their line, the Trailside, which was every bit as good as a Browning Buckmark… to the Mosquito, which is about as good as a case of the Flu.
Time to buy Ammo
Earlier this year dang near everyone that makes ammunition had sent us unhappy letters. Basically the gist of them all is that ammunition across the board is going to be going up in price, on average about 15%.
The time to buy ammo is right now, before those price increases hit and that cost is reflected at retail. Oh, don’t be so smug, Reloaders… this effects all reloading components as well.
Why is it going up? Global demand on metals, the deflating value of the Dollar, and futures trading. But if you have to point fingers at anyone. Here you go. China. China is buying raw material like crazy. That’s just a fact. All these have an effect on what you are going to pay for a box of your favorite ammo.
Cheap ammo is now a thing of the past.
Because of this training classes this year will have lower round count requirements to help offset this cost.
And now a word from T.
Our friend Terry has hit the nail on the head.
Facebook? Like Armed American Radio
Armed American Radio is closing in on 5,000 Likes. Let’s push it across that line… tell your friends to LIKE Armed American Radio.
I’m not sure what a LIKE does, but it’s cool to have 5 thousand of them. Isn’t it? AAR is breaking records in the radio industry. Talker Magazine has put out some stuff about it because the bullet like speed of the show’s growth has raised eyebrows across the country. We’re adding new cities, new stations, new markets every week. We’re picking up big sponsors, such as the NRA themselves. So pull the Trigger on AAR – Tune in, Turn it up… If you can’t get it on the radio in your area, you can stream it. If you can’t catch us live, you can get it off iTunes or right off the AAR’s website. Link is over there on the right side.
Bad Product Idea: The Gun Leash
This has got to be one of the worst ideas for a product I’ve ever seen.
Because getting the cops called on you is funny.
Top Shot Season 2
Last year I was faced with a tough choice. I was running for public office, and I was wanting to go on Top Shot. The producers made me choose one of the other. I could not be running for office if I was going to be on the show. I had to pick. From the support I had for my campaign, there was no way I could turn my back on that. So I chose to take a pass on the show.
Tonight I just watched the 1000 Yard episode. A .50 cal rifle to 1000 yards? Are you kidding me? Love that. However watching what happened after the challenge… I am very glad I picked to keep my run for office. At times I had regretted not going on the show – but after this episode, I know I made the right choice. I wouldn’t want anything to do with the show after that. I don’t want anything to do with it now.
Watching the news…
I’m watching, listening, and reading the news coming in from around the country and the world… I’m seeing the whole world going to hell in a handbasket. And I just don’t care anymore. I’m seeing Mankind’s ability to be inhumane to fellow man. Our Government’s Puppet Theater to keep the blissfully ignorant and gullible occupied while they run us into the ground. The seeds of war spread and taking root around the globe. I’m just not caring much anymore about all of it. Nothing is surprising me about how bad it’s getting. I really don’t care anymore.
All I care about is taking care of, and protecting my loved ones. Nothing else matters.
