Meanwhile in Texas

By | October 30, 2012

According to Sec. 46.035 of the Texas Penal Code, it’s illegal for someone with a concealed carry license to carry in a church. A North Texas congregation is reeling after an attacker rammed a car into a church wall, chased the pastor, and beat him to death with an electric guitar. Well, at least it… Read More »

Gone and done it

By | October 28, 2012

Last week I ordered the same scope that Linoge used to make rifleman. Should be here tomorrow. It’ll be Spring before I can even think about doing another Appleseed, and hopefully the rumors about having one less than a mile from my house are true–that’ll make it a lot easier for me. I’d still rather… Read More »

By | October 12, 2012

I knew I had forgotten at least one thing from that big rambling post… well… several things… The three big things that the folks teaching the Appleseed clinic kept pushing were breathing, relaxing, and natural point of aim.  The breathing and relaxing are both pretty simple to explain, if you tense up, not only do… Read More »

random funny thought…

Alert the media!  A man just bought over 1500 rounds of ammo over his lunch break!*  Nothing good could come of this! *I needed more .22 ammo for the Project Appleseed shoot I’m going to next week, and I owe Wizard some ammo in trade of a brick of CCI .22lr Quiet.  It’s not my… Read More »

It’s always the gun’s fault

By | September 24, 2012

What do you do when your 17 year old son is killed during a drug deal in your own home? Blame the gun. By all accounts, the “good kid” was the dealer in that case. Also note the journalistic malpractice committed here. They mention a man who was killed in an attempted robbery on Saturday,… Read More »
