Jared Golden was a 36-year-old state lawmaker, waging his first bid for Maine's 2nd Congressional District in 2018, when his campaign released a TV ad that raised eyebrows nationally. The ad opened with a rifle aimed at a distant bullseye as a narrator accused the Republican incumbent, Bruce Poliquin, of taking "pot shots" at Golden that were "way off target." And it ends with Golden � a tattooed, Marine Corps veteran � shouldering his own rifle and telling viewers that unlike Poliquin, he's "straight shooter" � just before his shot hits the target dead-center.

Former President Barack Obama was right about soon-to-be-former President Joe Biden when, reportedly during the 2020 primary season, Obama told an unidentified fellow Democrat, �Don�t underestimate Joe�s ability to f� things up.�

That remark has been widely repeated, once in a Politico store in August 2020, and again a year later in the Washington Free Beacon. It is the stuff from which political legends are made.

Republicans are casting Vice President Kamala Harris as a threat to gun rights in Pennsylvania as the culture wars take an outsize role in the presidential race. Harris has tacked to the right on gun restrictions since taking over the Democratic ticket in August. She still supports a ban on assault-style weapons but no longer says those guns should be turned over in a mandatory buyback program.

In fact, its preposition infers that the second portion of the amendment: �the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed,� deals with weapons of war.

The venerable 20 Gauge is an often-underrated round, but the truth is it�s still an excellent option for sport shooting, hunting upland game or deer, and even home defense. It�s also a great option for new or recoil-sensitive shooters looking for something with less recoil than a typical 12 gauge.

Gun owners in the nation�s capital will continue to face ammunition magazine capacity limits, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday. A divided three-judge panel for the DC Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court decision upholding DC�s ban on the possession and sale of what it called �extra-large capacity magazines� (ELCMs). The panel ruled the city�s ten-round limit for magazines fit within the nation�s historical tradition of regulating �particularly dangerous weapons� and those �capable of unprecedented lethality,� even though there weren�t similar bans when the Second Amendment was ratified.
