In Case of Zombies
Zombies were more popular than ever at the NRA convention this year.
There was lots of Zombie themed targets, guns, knives and other items.
I think the best example was this Bug Out Vehicle! The roof mounted mini gun and two door mounted guns are perfect for the Zombie apocalypse or heavy morning traffic on your commute!
I can't imagine how much this thing cost to put together.
I still prefer a Brinks Armored Truck for my Zombie Apoc needs. Lots more storage for food, water ammo and fuel.

I'm Back
I just got back from the NRA 2014 Convention.
It was a great trip. Saw a lot of old friends and met a lot of new friends.
Normal posting will resume tomorrow.
--Now I need coffee...

2014 NRA Annual Meeting
I am heading out today for the NRA Annual Meeting and show.
They expect over 70,000 people to attend.
I have not been there since Pittsburgh. I have my most comfy shoes ready.
This will also be my first big roadtrip since my spine surgery last winter.
I am going to try to post from the Meeting!
--Who's going? Email me at miller.jbx@gmail.com!

Range trip
I made a quick range trip. In an unusual series of events I only took one firearm to shoot.
I took my Suppressed Roni/Glock 21 SBR.I have a new EOTech that I needed to sight in. It was fun.
I walked in the sight at 25 yards and then at 50 yards. I forgot to bring my spotting scope or binocs. My eyes are not what they use to be but if you drop a whole mag you can see where they go.
I can't believe how much .45ACP drop.
Fun stuff.
The only problem was that when the gun heats up the suppressor begins to work loose.
Tightening the can when it's HOT is not much fun!
--I love this gun!

Quotes of the Week
There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.”
― Ayn Rand
The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
--Ayn Rand

Benelli Shorty
Yet another short shotgun I am lusting after. This one is from Benelli.
--I wonder if they make holsters for it.

Serbu Super Shorty 12 Gauge
As you know. I am a sucker for a short shotgun. This vid also explains why these are defined as an AOW ($5) and not an SBS ($200). If you really like recoil you might need one.
--Only 3 round capacity and a bit expensive for a novelty gun.

VA Gun Trader
I have been enjoying the hell out of VA Gun Trader this week.
If you have never checked it out, and live in VA, You really should.
To do it right you really need to go there daily and keep an eye out. It also gives you a realistic sense on the value of a firearm.
--The discussions can also be a hoot.

Teddy Roosevelt
I was at the Smithsonian National Art Museum today and was suprised to see a rifle on display in the Portrait Gallery.
I should have known. I look to the left and there is the Portrait of President Roosevelt.
This was Teddy's Springfield.
This was one of three firearms he purchased for his hunting trip to British East Africa.
--It was a beautiful day.

Robot Sentries
A friend sent me a pic via email.
I would love to build a remote controlled sentry. Here are the features of this that I like:
--I wonder if EOTechs have an always on mode?

Another DYI Gun Safe
Here is another hidden gun safe that would be good for a dusty corner of your garage.
This not only locks, it has really good internal volume.
It could even be plugged in so it could have interior lights, dehumidifier and maybe even some security systems.
I would also remove all the compressor and motor gear and install a drawer in the bottom.
--Good camouflage!
