"The market for guns is growing faster than the national debt. Paradoxically, the guns themselves are shrinking. Powerful handguns are getting smaller, easier to carry and less expensive. The Smith & Wesson M&P9 Shield continues this trend. It�s a pistol trimmed down to a size often reserved for weaker cartridges like the .380, but it maintains many of the ruffles and flourishes of its larger siblings in the M&P series. That�s all well and good, except that there are hidden costs that can outweigh the benefits of proliferating pistol shrinkage . . ." ... |

"While enjoying a lovely dinner in Newport, RI with TTAG�s impresario, the conversation drifted to firearm technologies that could still use some improvement. We agreed that the magazine has always been one of the weak points of any semi-auto pistol platform. Feed lips get bent, springs weaken and can rust, schmutz can enter and cause all sorts of long- and short-term problems with functioning and reliability. Anyone who is serious about their carry equipment knows that you need to maintain your mags and should have a spare close at hand. Even then, they screw up occasionally. So what can be done about this state of affairs? . . ." ... |

"The Galco Ankle Glove is the Cadillac of ankle holsters. As if anyone could ever make that analogy. The foundation (the part that actually wraps around your ankle) is made of thick neoprene material. This is the same material that�s used to make wetsuits for divers and cold water surfers. It�s thick, cushy, durable, and comfortable. Our first thought was to take up combat swimming, but common sense prevailed and we figured the leather holster pouch (and gun) may not fare as well in 65 feet of salt water. Baywatch lifeguards could use this piece of equipment as they rarely seem to enter the water." ...

... "Well, while shooting my Smith & Wesson Shield at the range last Sunday, I had a failure, which you can read about here if you�re interested. The short version is that on the second round of the first mag, the Shield failed to go into battery, and the slide was completely locked up. Since the Shield is my primary gun for the summer, it certainly made me stop and think. What if this had happened when I really needed my gun? After only one shot, my one and only gun was now a rather expensive club."
"First lesson learned: Any gun can fail, even if the gun has always been flawless. I already knew this of course, but now I really know. If that makes sense." ... |

"Precision shooting is a pretty broad category. Or maybe it�s a really, really narrow category as the word 'precision' denotes an elite quality that not everything can possess. Are we talking long range precision shooting? Speed precision? Competition precision? Camp Perry? Optics or iron sights? All are viable questions, and outside of hunting big game (Never taken a whitetail, muley or elk past 300 yards) and long-range plinking (700 yards is my max so far) I�ll be honest and say my experience with the above generic categories beyond the hunting realm is admittedly limited." ... |

"Q: Does the Obama administration intend to 'force gun control and a complete ban on all weapons for U.S. citizens' through a United Nations treaty?"
"A: No. The administration plans to negotiate a treaty to regulate the international export and import of weapons. It says that it won�t support any treaty that regulates the domestic transfer or ownership of weapons, or that infringes on the Second Amendment." ...

Submitter's Note: I would find this more reassuring if the Obama administration didn't support CIFTA which, while nominally an international trafficking treaty, defines manufacture in such a way that you need a FedGov license to load a weapon! |

Quite simply, Rand Paul is promoting the gun lobby's agenda and if he and the gun lobby have their way, innocent people will die. All this is in direct conflict with the principles of local prerogatives and market freedom that he regularly espouses � when the subject is not guns. Rand Paul is nothing less than a hypocrite and his actions as a senator are a threat to our communities.'" ...

"To Hunt Squirrels or Not To Hunt Squirrels? All of us were offered coyote and squirrel hunting through out the weekend. Just in case I got my Apprentice small game license ahead of time. The coyote hunt was scheduled for dawn the first morning on Saturday. Having arrived at midnight and not getting to sleep until 1:30 am and our West coast time difference I opted to pass. ... Barb, Marti, Julie, Lacey and Shelley set out in the wee hours. 3 hours later they returned with no kills but had funny video of them blowing the coyote call. Imagine 5 gals in a hide blowing this call and trying not to crack up. Not mention just trying not to make noise for an hour or more. I on the other hand woke up leisurely Saturday morning to the smells of 2nd Amendment Coffee." ... |

"Moreover, Obama's decision to invoke 'executive privilege' to hide these documents from the American people is a tacit admission that what the National Rifle Association has been saying since day one is true. Namely, that the inconceivable crimes committed under operation 'Fast and Furious' were designed to support the Obama administration's gun control agenda." ... |

"The case once again shed a light on the city government�s propensity for firearm confiscation."
"The case stems from a July 2008 traffic stop in which Errol Houston, a Right-to-Carry permit holder, was charged with illegal possession of a firearm and other offenses. Prosecutors later dropped all charges against Houston. Despite this, the Orleans Parish District Attorney�s Office and New Orleans Police Department refused Houston�s requests to have his firearm returned.

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. � Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
