Gear Chat

  • Zippo Butane Torch Insert
  • Girsan has introduced the High Power MCP35PILW, the lightest version of its High Power pistol series, featuring a 9mm, lightweight aluminum frame and an optic-ready slide. This model aims to enhance carry options for users while incorporating modern features like ambidextrous safeties and increased magazine capacity.

Bullet Points

  • The German manufacturer Spohr has introduced the L562 Standard 4.0 revolver, featuring high precision, superior trigger characteristics, and durable construction. This 4-inch revolver is designed for both utility and sporting use, offering an optional 9mm Luger exchange cylinder that lowers recoil and training costs.
  • Shawn – VSO Rips PSA Standards
  • VSO talking about PSA in a negative light.
  • The article discusses the findings of an informal survey conducted among NRA members and the general shooting public regarding their opinions on the NRA’s current state. Many respondents expressed feelings of betrayal and frustration, showing a divide between those who still support the NRA and those who do not. There is a call for reform within the organization, with many emphasizing the need for transparency, accountability, and improved communication. This sentiment reflects wider concerns within the gun community about the NRA’s leadership and direction.
  • James Reeves reviews a BCM rifle as part of TFB’s Ultimate Urban Rifle series, focusing on urban defense capabilities within a $3,000 budget. The review covers essential rifle components and suggests ways to achieve high performance at lower costs. This content provides guidance for the gun community interested in urban rifle selection and customization.
  • Team Canik achieved notable success at the 2024 IDPA Nationals, with captain Nils Jonasson securing the Overall Pistol title and the Stock Service Pistol Championship, while teammate Alperen Kivilcim was recognized as the Most Accurate Shooter. Both competed using the Canik SFx Rival-S, which was also honored as “Handgun of the Year” at the 2023 Industry Choice Awards.

WLS is Lifestyle

  • The article ranks U.S. states on their support for legal gun ownership in 2024, highlighting laws and tax policies that impact gun owners. New Hampshire tops the list due to relaxed gun laws and low crime rates, while states like Utah and Arizona saw declines in their rankings due to changes in governorship and legislation. The rankings reflect the varying degrees of support for gun rights across the country, which may affect the perception and engagement of the gun community in these states.
  • Camorado Hooded sun shirts

Aaron’s Alley

  • Silencing the Gun Control Whine

Going Ballistic

  • A grocery store in Canyon Lake, Texas, has introduced the state’s first ammunition vending machine, utilizing facial recognition technology to ensure buyers are over 21. While critics warn it could increase gun violence, the machine’s company argues it offers a secure, limited-quantity option for purchasing ammo. This new venture serves to enhance access to ammunition while highlighting ongoing debates between gun rights and control advocates.
  • The Fifth Circuit upheld that illegal aliens do not possess Second Amendment rights, reinforcing a prior ruling that such individuals cannot legally possess firearms or ammunition. The decision is seen as a win for the gun community, reaffirming existing laws against illegal firearms possession by non-citizens.
  • President Biden enacted Reese’s Law to enhance safety standards for button cell and coin batteries, which pose ingestion risks to children. The law mandates stricter product design and warning requirements, affecting manufacturers of consumer goods, including those in the gun community. Compliance will require increased vigilance and potential adjustments in packaging and product design, reflecting the ongoing trend of regulation impacting various industries.
  • The House Oversight Committee is investigating allegations of collusion between the Biden-Harris administration and anti-gun groups regarding a lawsuit against Glock Inc., while the White House and ATF reportedly remain uncooperative. This controversy may impact the gun community as it raises concerns about governmental transparency and the perceived targeting of legal gun manufacturers amidst ongoing gun control advocacy.
  • Amid rising concerns over armed gangs in Aurora, Colorado, the article critiques the gun control narrative, arguing that the necessity of AR-15 rifles for self-defense is becoming increasingly evident. It suggests that the overarching push against such firearms by Democrats is misguided, especially in light of real threats to personal safety.
  • The Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled that the state’s ban on carrying switchblade knives violates the Second Amendment, reinforcing the notion that self-defense rights extend beyond firearms to include commonly used arms. This decision could bolster the gun community’s stance on Second Amendment protections against state regulations.
  • Tennessee Secretary of State Tre Hargett blocked a Memphis City Council gun control ballot that aimed to impose strict regulations, including an “assault weapon” ban and restrictions on carrying handguns without permits. This decision reinforces state preemption laws that limit local governments from enacting stricter gun regulations, which impacts the gun control agenda in the area.

Reviews

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – from Five Stars from Eric J – I’m sorry, but after years of listening and tolerating some of the most revolting conversations I’ve ever heard, everything from ear pussies to Jeremy being a gay furry, this group has crossed a line I can’t forgive them from. When asked what song to play for invading aliens to save the Earth, NOT ONE PERSON said “Africa” by Toto! Shame!
