This year marked the first year that I’ve attended one of NRA’s yearly conventions. It also marked the first time I’ve ever been to a convention where I was part of the media. It felt kind of weird, but the NRA and the vendors in the exhibitor’s hall really do seem to like us bloggers… Read More »
I know a bunch of folks are getting ready to head to Indy for the NRAAM (myself included), but I thought I’d mention the Bidet Shoot 2 again. We are definitely on for June 20-22. I think the hotel we stayed in last year worked out well, so we’ll be there again, and I believe… Read More »
A little while ago, my dad got me a late Christmas present (late because it’s actually hard to find one). It’s the one on the right: Yep… that’s a 75 round drum mag for Marlin .22 rifles… like my 795 Or my Papoose It’s a little childish of me, but whenever folks start talking about… Read More »
…or at least, it’s cheap to hire someone to end it. A woman and her mother hired a couple guys to kill her father for $400. That’s a hell of a lot cheaper than what Hollywood hitmen typically get. The movies usually have the price set somewhere between the tens of thousands to the millions.… Read More »
Apparently 5.11 has decided to bring back their tactical kilts and make a new video for April fools this year. As of today, they’re taking orders for them. Same as last year, they’re asking $70 for them with $10 going going to charity. The charities this year being FBINAA and We Salute You Veterans. My… Read More »

A TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction) is basically a domestic no fly zone, and are usually limited to things like disaster zones, Presidential/Vice Presidential visits, and rocketry. I don’t know of another… Read More »
Ever since I sold my last one, I’ve regretted it. I’ve owned two cherokees (a 93 police package and a 99) and loved them both dearly. They both developed electrical problems and due to time, money, and storage limits they had to go. For about 6 months I’ve been looking for another one. Jeep stopped… Read More »
So… Apparently while I was busy rooting for the new knife law, one of our state senators decided to introduce a bill that would allow open carry in my state without having a permit, and that bill has passed the State Senate. Of course, apparently the house has stuck it in the finance committee to… Read More »
After the ARFCOM shoot last month, I’ve almost got myself convinced that I should buy one of these: And that wasn’t the only one there: Before and after shots. Note the flap at the front of shooting mat, and the amount of grass on the shooters in the two pics. BTW, when I shot it,… Read More »
Step 1: Read this. Step 2: Buy this: Step 3: 15 minutes after opening the box (click to embiggen)… Yeah, I probably had two minutes of flight before getting it stuck in the tree. The first time. Happened two more times after that before the battery died. Luckily I was smart enough to not get… Read More »
