The .50 Action Express cartridge is, without a doubt, one of the world�s most powerful pistol cartridges. It features a .500-inch bullet diameter (33mm) in a 1.285-inch straight-walled case that has a rebated rim. The overall length of the standard .50 AE round measures 1.610 inches, and the ammo is powered with a large pistol primer. According to the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers� Institute (SAAMI), the maximum pressure of .50 AE ammo should not exceed 36,000 pounds per square inch (psi).

These days, a �car gun� is generally considered to be any reasonably-powered handgun that can be slid under the driver�s seat and left there perpetually, to be rattled and scratched about largely at random � and hopefully be functional if ever needed. Often an inexpensive gun (police trade-in .357s are great for such duty), the owners will usually justify their selection of pistol by describing it as one they don�t mind having stolen. But it hasn�t always been this way. Think back to cowboy movies, did you see a spare Peacemaker holstered on John Wayne�s saddle, or a rifle?

In August, a sprawling regulation took effect that fundamentally changes what counts as a regulated �firearm� under federal law. Certain firearm parts, parts kits and even unfinished receiver blanks will now be treated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) as if they were operable guns, with all the bureaucracy and restrictions that implies. The rule is as audacious as it is indecipherable in its details. ATF is vastly expanding its own law enforcement jurisdiction, simply by unilaterally redefining the main commodity it regulates.

A number of sheriffs in upstate New York are declaring that their officers will not prioritize or �aggressively enforce� the state�s recently enacted, highly restrictive gun control law. These elected sheriffs have concluded quite correctly that the state�s new law is at odds with both the Constitution of the United States and with the most recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that declared New York�s previous and long-standing gun control law � the Sullivan Act � unconstitutional.

It may seem like it happened years ago, but this past summer, the landmark New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen was decided, and it�s been a silver bullet to most anti-gun laws. The ruling resolved the final questions regarding gun rights in America: do you have the right to carry a firearm in public for self-defense, and are justifiable need clauses in �may issue� carry states unconstitutional?
