    Flying and face mask inside US

    Some airlines are requiring them, from what I read. Also, some destinations (countries) are requiring all incoming passengers to wear them. No direct experience on my part, just stating what I've read in the news the past few days.

    Seattle autonomous zone

    Well, any idiot can stand on his own front porch and scream to the world that he is declaring himself an independent nation. That doesn't automatically mean the feds should swoop in and deal with it on each and every occasion.

    Seattle autonomous zone

    The aggrieved, in any major metropolitan downtown area, are going to be business owners. Very few people actually live in a central downtown region of a big city. I've heard several instances of business owners in the Seattle Chaz area complaining about loss or destruction of their property...

    I need help

    http://www.newson6.com/story/13396948/da-says-midwest-city-mother-justified-in-shooting-would-be-burglars?redirected=true This is the story of a home invasion in which a young mother used a gun to defend her children. I know this story, because I worked with the father of the family at that...

    Interesting encounter with restaurant employee

    I find myself wondering what the manager's response / attitude would have been if you had been wearing baggy pants and an Oakland Raiders jersey.

    Lakewood (Cleaveland?) gun confiscation fiasco

    Part of my irritation is the bad reporting in this article. Clearly, the reporter should have at least mentioned why the cops were at the condo... warrant for arrest? Noise complaint? I doubt if a valid reason for the visit would be an excuse for the gun confiscation, but it just adds to my...

    My encounter with a road rage driver

    I've seen many drivers on the road who behave as if it is a personal insult to them if you pass them. I'm not talking about passing someone and merging back into their lane 3 feet in front of their bumper, I'm talking about just a regular old, legal, safe passing maneuver. They will start...

    The second amendment and military grade firearms

    Whenever I read some liberal rant against "military-grade" guns, I always thinkof the venerable military firearm, the 1903 Springfield bolt action rifle, and the M-1 Garand, and the various other firearms that could be considered functionally similar enough to these military arms to be...

    Best Deal on .308 Bulk Ammo?

    Pokem: I don't mean to preach or tell you that the sky is blue, but if you lean towards getting an FAL, do research before buying. I found out (after buying my FAL) that there is a major difference in the quality between various lower receiver designs from different manufacturers. Some are...

    Do you think I can do it? IDPA,IPSC

    Years ago when I first started shooting IPSC, a friend described it as an armed track meet. Sure enough, I saw many highly competitive sorts showing up with running shorts and (I kid you not) cleats on their shoes for better traction moving between targets on a stage. However, I also saw a...

    Aussie Can Pop A Top/Wheelie At The Same Time Gets 10 month DL Suspension

    I saw a good number of motorized couches a few weeks ago at the Oshkosh air show. Most drivers of the couches were probably tipsy. I wonder if Wisconsin has the same outlook on those "vehicles" as well.

    Pistol for bears?

    I sometimes backpack in Arkansas, where the bears tend to be smaller. As a backpacker, gun weight becomes an important consideration. I usually leave the heavy stuff at home and feel quite comfortable with a single stack .357 SIG. Small enough to not overly burden me, but I figure if I empty...

    Interesting handgun stopping power study.

    I really appreciate the thoroughness of this study, and the observation that he tried very hard not to skew the results. Sometimes, statistics can be like a captured enemy spy. If you torture them long enough they will tell you anything that you want to hear. This study also reinforced my...
