Something I bet you never thought you’d see on Publicola’s blog! While he knows that we generally agree on what the gun laws of this country should be, I tend to be much more of a work within the system...
New Jersey and New York are being sued for violating FOPA. The lawsuit seeks more than $3 million in damages for civil rights violations and a permanent injunction forcing the Port Authority to follow Federal law on interstate transport of...

Say Uncle has this post about a guy arrested for having arms. There was also a dig thrown in about the ATFU's old fallback - "attempting" to convert a semi to full auto as well as allegations of having a...

Say Uncle has a post about a kid who posted pics of himself with handguns on the net. Here's the initial story that prompted his post. It only says that after being ratted out a kid was arrested because he...

Of Arms & the Law has a post up with this link to a video clip of the ATFU hearings. At least the first part of them. It's about an hour & 20 minutes long & deals with the allegations...
A lot of people, if not most who come here would be self identified as pro-law enforcement. It's ingrained in us from childhood. When we're little our parents tell us to find who if we're in trouble or scared? Cops...

"These must be the dumbest ATF agents in the entire agency,' [Rep. William Delahunt (D-Mass.)] said. 'I am absolutely shocked that they could be that stupid.' 'It's almost to the point that it's difficult to believe,' he added. 'I have...

This has probaby been done before but I was talking with a friend & "yo mamma" jokes came up. Instead of resorting to the same old ones we've been using for decades, I pulled up this thread from The Firing...

I walked in one day, noticed my friendly neighborhood teller & told her I'd like to talk to someone about a loan. She asked what the loan was for & I told her mainly firearms (rifles, pistols, submachine guns, a...
Of Arms & the Law linked to this story about the ATFU hearings in Congress. I think it deserves a fisking. Shall we?...

The gist - a man carrying openly in Louisiana is arrested & his property stolen because some petty ass wanna be tyrants with badges don't like the idea of a person carrying a gun openly. Nevermind the state constitution (as...
I'm thinking Avtomat Kitty-nikova. :) I just wonder if that little fellow knows Behemoth? Sent to me by a very dear friend who treats her cat well despite my constant teasing (which is foolish on my part because she's a...

I grew up in the south. I can still point you to communities where school attendance is less than 50% on the opening day of deer season & dove season. Field trials weren't something that only dog breeders & trainers...

Cause we were ya know (phrase shamlessly stolen from Zombie David) It seems that all those items stolen by the TSA in order for them to let you fly on a plane you paid money to be on is...
This is by no means gun related. For 15 years (give or take) I was a professional guitar player. I saw a story about musicians in New Orleans & it got to me a bit. There won't be any sweeping...

Er, actually that should have read "Blogger's Bash". Specifically the Rocky Mountain Blogger Bash v. 5.0 & there's a short (yeah right) rant behind the "v. 5.0" qualifier:...

The BATFU has apparently been training local police. Note the fear in the felines eyes as he flees for his life. He knows what terror awaits him should he be caught by ATFU trained agents. (pic found at DavidandLara's) Actually...
The way it works is that when a Garand is retired from the service it was issued in (Navy, Air Force, etc...) it goes to an Army Depot & from there to the CMP. Well an old Marine in this...

Matt is joining the growing list of folks that urge people to buy something Danish as a counter-protest to the protests of a percentage of Muslims who aren't happy with cartoons in a danish paper. Well I've been recommending buying...

It’s probably no surprise to people that I happen to like dogs. There are three in the house right now, beasts that were starving and injured when I first took them off the street. Mark Twain once said that the...
Via Instapundit (like you've never seen those two words side by side on a blog before) there's a link to a video shot by Andrew Marcus. It's of anti-Bush protesters in Chicago. Here's the WMV link & here's the QT...
One is available here. For background on Mr. Maye's circumstances look here. My posts on Mr. Maye can be found here. It looks like a hearing to decide whether or not to give Mr. Maye a new trial will be...
