In 2003, .45 Glock Automatic Pistol (GAP) ammunition was introduced as the first cartridge to have the Glock name attached to it. Designed as a rimless, straight-walled round, the .45 GAP shares the same bullet diameter of the popular .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP), a hefty .451 inch. For the .45 GAP, the bullet sits in a .755-inch casing (the same length of a 9mm shell), giving the full ammunition an overall length of 1.070 inches.

The guns on both sides were plentiful.

But two opposing groups managed to both rally at the same Allendale area park without any skirmishes.

The American Patriot Council and Justice for Black Lives held rallies just a few hundred yards apart Saturday, Oct. 24, as Ottawa County sheriff�s deputies kept a close watch and made sure the groups did not intermingle.

Both groups appeared to come prepared for possible trouble, with people in tactical gear and wearing guns on both sides. Media from both local and national outlets had a strong presence at the event.

The North American Arms (NAA) .22 Magnum mini-revolver is a single action firearm with a minimalist design which allows it to be concealed and kept close at hand in the event of an attack or other cause of duress. NAA mini-revolvers have been on the market for decades and the .22 Magnum is one of the popular configurations. The one we tested was a .22 MC, which means it ships with two cylinders and can be converted to .22 Long Rifle by simply switching out one cylinder for another.

If you buy essential oils on the lower rungs of the quality ladder, the worst thing that can happen is that you�ll be out a few bucks and feel a bit slimy. Oh, and your friends will think you weird for investing in magic oil in the first place. If you buy a self-defense gun that doesn�t rank above the midpoint of the Gunsumer Reports Annual Ballistics issue, it might cost you your life. And for cheaping out on so important a decision, your friends might arrange for Cardi B to lip-sync the Baby Shark song at your funeral.

The old idea, �If you want to understand what�s really going on, follow the money,� certainly holds true when it comes to gun-control groups. The NRA gets its funding from millions of members and supporters who cherish American freedom. In contrast, as you�ll see here, the vast majority of money fueling gun-control groups comes from a few mega-wealthy individuals who live very protected lives, but don�t think you should have the same security as they do.

The New Hampshire Attorney General�s office says state and local authorities can�t prevent people from bringing guns into polling places, even those located in school buildings � but they will be on alert to respond to anyone, armed or otherwise, who is interfering with someone else's ability to vote. "We are not able to use any of our New Hampshire election laws to prohibit a voter from entering to vote if they have a firearm, and that includes if the polling place is a school,� Assistant Attorney General Nicholas Chong Yen, who leads the state�s Election Law Unit, during a call with local clerks earlier this week.

As the snow comes down the mountain, I�m still in the hunt for some great adventures around the state.

Sitting in the tire shop, I checked in with Jon Faulkner for a weather report in Homer.

There�s a commonly used expression in the hunting and fishing world: �That�s what it�s all about!� I know it�s applied in other types of conversations about sports, holidays and family traditions, but it�s frequently exclaimed in tree stands, boats and outdoor-related social media posts. It�s a good one that I often use myself. When I think about a �double date� style ice fishing trip with friends last January, the last deer my mom got, or the feeling of looking into a freezer filled with wild game, I think to myself: �That�s what it�s all about!�

"Pro-life" Judge Amy Coney Barrett, who will almost certainly be seated on the Supreme Court this week, seems to have no problem putting guns in the hands of individual Americans who want to buy them � every Tom, Dick and Kyle. She reportedly takes "an expansive view" of the Second Amendment, writing in her only ruling on gun regulation that it should not be considered "a second-class amendment."

It comes as no surprise former Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Kamala Harris are campaigning on promises �to end our gun-violence epidemic.� The leftward drift of the Democratic Party on most policy questions, including lawful firearm ownership, has been made explicit in its 2020 party platform. The presidential nominee�s campaign �issues page� takes it several steps further, promising to pass or incentivize all manner of gun restrictions.

AK: Whether you choose cheap or fancy, the shotgun that fits and feels right is the one you will love

My first day of amateur trapshooting was as an adult at the Snowshoe Gun Club on the Kenai Peninsula. That day, I shot a blocky shotgun belonging to another club member. The single-shot BT-99 felt heavier and less sophisticated than the slim 20-gauge I had learned to shoot for duck hunting.

�Why does it have a square forend?� I asked.

In my limited experience, shooting only two different shotguns in 12- and 20-gauge, I had not yet seen a front section on a gun shaped like a platypus bill. It struck me as being like a square-toed shoe. I didn�t understand the look of a flipper on footwear or a firearm.

�Safe� and �fire� are two commands most of us are familiar with. But those two words took on an even greater and more personal meaning for me recently. Like any responsible firearms owner, my guns had been securely locked away, out of sight and out of reach from unauthorized individuals, whether family, guests or anyone else entering my home�invited or uninvited. But recent events in California have caused me to reevaluate the safeguards I had taken to protect my guns.

More than 20,000 hunters are expected to take to the woods for New Hampshire's upcoming muzzleloader deer season. Muzzleloaders are single barrel, single shot guns that require the bullets, primer and powder to be loaded through a muzzle each time before firing. Muzzleloader hunters are given 11 days prior to the opening day of the regular firearms season to hunt deer. That window starts Oct. 31 and ends Nov. 10.

Around this time of year in my part of the country, a lot of folks start thinking about elk hunting. Elk are big and pretty tough cervids, and a lot of guys believe they need more power than a .270 Win. or .30-�06 Sprg. in order to kill one. That�s not really true, but beliefs are often immovable. Among the power folks, the .338 Winchester Magnum is a popular choice.
