Following a November meeting, news reports suggested the Republican governor agreed to back the mayors� call for stronger gun control � among other things.

As The Dispatch reported: �School boards at Garaway Local Schools and Claymont City Schools approved the safety measure [to arm teachers at the end of 2019].

About six months ago, I was working at a small gun store in Texas. An older gentleman wearing faded jeans, a tucked-in navy blue polo shirt, gold-framed glasses, and a hat that read �WWII Vet� (with ribbons and marking I did not recognize) was rolled into the store in his wheelchair. On this gentleman�s lap was a faded olive drab soft long gun case and another case, but for a pistol. At first, I did not give him a second glance.

Washington State Rep. Jim Walsh (R-Aberdeen) may have his hands full when the Legislature convenes Jan. 13, fighting a package of gun control bills he says will �infringe upon the rights of gun owners.�

Jay Inslee and Attorney General Bob Ferguson�both Democrats�and will likely get a push through the legislature, which is controlled by Democrats �amateurish and constitutionally flawed.�

His most recent example of such a shooting is drawn from August 2019, when nine students were shot and injured at a Mobile, Alabama, high school football game. NPR reported that the shooting occurred just before 9:30 p.m. and none of the injuries were life-threatening.

Gun safety measures are expected to be a major issue in Virginia�s General Assembly session, a prospect that has helped pro-gun groups drive up sales and protests ahead of the new Democratic majority gaveling in on Wednesday. With Democrats now in control of the Virginia House, Senate and governor�s mansion, a number of gun-related bills that quietly failed in subcommittees for years � or that were rapidly dismissed during a special session on gun violence following last year�s mass shooting in Virginia Beach � are expected to become law.

That's what the state's new "Extreme Risk Protection Orders" law, commonly known as the red flag law, looks like on paper -- at least at the Denver city attorney's office. "This was a very complicated bill with a lot of nuances to it," said Marley Bordovsky, Director of the Prosecutions Section at the Denver City Attorney's Office. "It took a team of lawyers in the city attorney's office to map it out on a whiteboard to figure out the exact process, and this is what we came up with."

An Ode to the Remington 870

While many praise the AR-15-style rifle for its modular nature, the Remington 870 is equally changeable, from barrel length to stock. Over the years, I�ve seen every decently popular semi-automatic shotgun jam on occasion. Some need copious oil, some prefer an extra-firm shoulder, some require frequent cleaning and some demand loads heavy enough to cycle their magnum actions. Most are remarkably reliable when these particulars are met, and I routinely recommend reputable semi-automatics such as Brownings, Remingtons, FNs, Benellis, Mossbergs, Winchesters and others for home-defense.

We know that self-defense worked in the Texas church, but I was shocked at how badly gun-control failed to keep us safe.

The murderer had issues with drug abuse, homelessness, mental health, multiple divorces, domestic violence and restraining orders, and a long criminal history.

Our firearms background check system only works when prosecutors and judges do their job. When they failed, the armed citizens in the church did theirs.

Following on the heels of its rollout of the CPX-4 and an all-new CPX Red Dot lineup, SCCY Firearms announced the launch of an entirely new handgun design in its DVG-1. Initially, SCCY offerings featured a line of hammer-fired guns under the CPX moniker, available in a number of popular calibers and frame colors.
