Christmas weekend at the range

I went to the range this weekend with my son. It was incredibly crowded. We had about a 45 minute wait. Lots of people with new guns!

He was enjoying his gift. I gave him a Ruger Mini-14 that has an upgraded stock, a dot scope and a LASER sight.

I was amused by his comments:
  •  "This thing has no recoil at all."
  • "The adjustable stock is great!"
  • "I need new glasses."
  • "With this scope I need some Zombie targets."

It took us no time at all to pump 300 rounds through that rig. His smiles were big.

--I am very jealous of his new Pelican case!

Running Late! Random Tuesday!

I own two guns that I would like to add a front grip.

Both currently have angle grips.

It doesn't cost much,

Friday Gun Porn

Star Wars

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens today nationally.

I wonder how soon the complaints and calls for boycotts will start because of all the guns in the movie.

Will these fools be forced by triggers to curl up in the corner out of fear and other stupid reactions of the Pansie culture.

Gun Porn

This weeks gun porn was seen at the Nations Gun Show everywhere for prices under $600. This is your basic S&W MP15.


Every shooter needs a basic AR15 like this. Add 10 mags, a bayonet, a sling and maybe an optic. Behind every blade of grass...

--I believe that kids in school should be taught safety with these.

Gun Grabbers Will Not Like This



REALITY CHECK: CBS Anchor Ben Swann took 5 minutes on Monday night's broadcast to break down the true intent of Second Amendment, and liberal gun grabbers will not like it one bit.The Second Amendment isn't just about hunting or protecting yourself and your family. Our Founders knew that government could eventually turn on the people, and the right to keep and bear arms was included to ensure that never, ever happened.

Random Tuesday

I saw some of this hidden compartment furniture at the Nations Gun Show a couple weeks ago. Nice but pricey.

Speaking of the gun show. It has gotten bigger. Another room has been added that is the size of a gymnasium, but it was still really crowded.

I also saw bulk quantities of subsonic .300 Blackout. Cheaper on-line still, even with shipping.

My 19 year old son asked if a shotgun was a possible Christmas gift. I'm still smiling.

--Time to go to work.

Emotions vs Facts

The President gave another big speech about gun control.

It was a total emotional case because they know the facts do not follow they case.

They want to add everyone on the terror watch list to the no-buy list. No mention was made regarding the desire of some to label all NRA members as terrorists.

The facts are that gun violence and crime in general has been falling for decades. This is happening even though gun sales have skyrocketed. It also does not help their case because areas with concealed carry and the least gun control have very low crime.

--So they beg to think of the children.

Quotesof the Week

Feminists don’t challenge radical Islam because real misogynists are terrifying.
--Janet Bloomfield

"I believe every woman should learn how to shoot. It would give them confidence and power of self-protection. And above all, it would teach them grace and poise. You cannot imagine how shooting demands perfect balance, and how shooting vanishes carelessness and slovenly ways. I know of nothing better in securing grace than practicing the poses which must be gone through in successfully handling a rifle or shotgun."
--Annie Oakley

Christmas

My son is 19 years old and I am thinking it's time for Santa to bring him a rifle.

I won't mention what kind of rifle but I am also going to get him a Pelican Case to store and transport.

A cleaning kit is on the list as well.

--I am very excited about this!
