Re: California bans Glocks

I heard a report that the ATF was considering declaring all Glocks machine guns due to the proliferation of Glock switches. It seemed likely enough that I picked up a couple of other makes and models to put into my EDC rotation.

Re: Weird signage

The wording of the sign appears to prohibit just about everyone.

“…licensed under sub chapter H, Chapter 411 Government code (Handgun licensing law) OR A PERSON, may not enter…”

If I had to be there, I’d ignore the sign.

Re: Being a gun owner in New York

1. I used to get annoyed at bad drivers on the road. I amazed myself at how much I calmed down once I started carrying.

2. The story illustrates one more time that the first person to call the police is generally considered to be the ‘victim’.

Re: Tired of Cornyn?

I saw a news headline this morning indicating that Ken and Angela Paxton may have committed real estate fraud. This link from July says much the same thing. It seems they may have listed 3 different homes as their primary residence.

Re: Today in Trump's 2nd term as President

I'm very much a fan of Rep. Clyde, and very much of 2 minds on the 'win' in the OBBB. I absolutely want to see the NFA gutted, but I can see that a $0 tax/registration is wide open for court challenges. If only I had confidence that SCOTUS would actually accept a case like that when/if it reaches ...

Re: TX looking to remove restrictions on short barrel guns

It would remove short-barreled rifles and short-barreled shotguns from the list of prohibited weapons in Texas, but those items would still be regulated under the NFA. It's probably very similar to the law a few years ago that tried to say that suppressors made in Texas, and that never left Texas ...

Re: New Texas Speaker of the House

There was a lot of hair pulling between Burrows and Rep. David Cook. Cook was selected by the Republican Caucus, and the caucus said that the Speaker should only be chosen ONLY by the party in power*. Burrows cobbled together a coalition from both parties, and was able to get a majority of the ...

Re: Today in Trump's 1st term as President



I hope and pray that if we on the right manage to obtain all 3 branches of government in 2024 that the Republicans burn the democrat house to the ground and scatter the ashes to the 4 corners.

Democrats are perfecting their ability to win elections. I'm going to vote, but my confidence is not ...

A man fired into the crowd.
