A corner-store clerk in Houston, Tex., defended himself against an armed robber late on Monday night, June 29, after the man fired on him. The clerk was alone in the store around 10 p.m. that evening when the suspect walked in. The robber first attempted to pass a counterfeit $20 bill to the clerk, who told him it was no good.

Right now, manufacturers are selling guns as fast as they can make them, with many running their machines 24/7. While it may appear as if they are vanishing into thin air once they leave the factory, some lucky customers are actually finding what they want. Evidence indicates millions of these gun buyers are first-time owners.

On July 2nd, Governor Roy Cooper vetoed House Bill 652, the Second Amendment Preservation Act, despite it passing the General Assembly with bipartisan supermajorities. He erroneously claimed that the bill will allow guns in schools and threatens the safety of students and teachers. Instead, it only applies to churches that operate schools and simply allows parishioners to carry when the schools are not in session, if the church wishes to opt-in. Gov. Cooper�s veto shows that he cares little about personal safety or private property rights. HB 652 will now go back to the General Assembly, where they may consider a veto override.

A �large-capacity magazine� meant any �fixed or detachable magazine, box, drum, feed strip, or similar device capable of accepting, or that is designed to be readily converted to accept, more than fifteen rounds of ammunition.�

Well, if there is one issue that transcends the blue state-red state divide, it's the protection of one's home and family. Ever since the coronavirus lockdowns, folks have been flocking to gun stores. It got another shot of adrenaline when the George Floyd riots erupted, and it was appallingly clear that the police could not protect law-abiding citizenry or local businesses. Minneapolis burned. New York City descended into mob rule for multiple nights, along with rampant looting, arson, and assault on police officers. In Seattle, armed leftists seized portions of the city. No wonder why June was a massive month for gun sales, 40 percent of which are estimated to be new gun owners. |

While the Georgia-based company will keep making Gen 3 guns for the California market, the Gen 4 is going away in lieu of newer Gen 5 Glocks in some calibers. The iconic polymer pistol maker announced that fundamentally the 5th Generation guns will be the standard moving forward on their 9mm and .40S&W offerings. First introduced with G17 and G19 9mm variants in 2017, the Gen 5 guns feature a reversible magazine catch and ambidextrous slide stop lever, Glock�s new Marksman Barrel (GMB), and an enhanced trigger system, as well as front slide serrations on some models. |

The single-shot Springfield 1873 rifle was already obsolete when the Army issued it with a 33�� barrel to the infantry and a 22�� barrel to the cavalry. The .45-70-405 cartridge it used, however, had been exhaustively researched and was a marvelous new cartridge with superb performance. Unfortunately, it was housed in a troublesome, non-reloadable soft copper case until the Army switched to reloadable brass cases in 1882 and began manufacturing and issuing their own reloading kits in 1883. |
