This last weekend, my grandparents moved from the home they lived in for 50 years to an assisted living facility near my mother’s house. As a part of that, I got a couple of pieces of furniture that they bought when their house was new. A couple of days later I went to go put clothes… Read More »
I came across this story this morning, and I’ve got some thoughts about what happened. The reporting is pretty slim, so I could be completely wrong, but here goes. “Victim” and “suspect” are being mutual assholes on the highway. “Victim” decides to teach “suspect” a lesson, and gets out of the car to, er, administer… Read More »
Even though Woot has a rule about not posting deals on actual firearms* (fortunately, we have places like SlickGuns for that), they don’t seem to have any issue with advertising or even selling gun accessories. Today’s deal on sport.woot.com is a S&W Micro 90 for $37.99 + $5 shipping. I haven’t really done any research… Read More »

Today I’m offering up one of the barrels. I have both the 5″ target barrel and the 3.4″ standard barrel.… Read More »

I just found out this morning when I went to cash a check. I’ve already emailed the branch manager, who I have a really… Read More »
That’s a common argument from my mother about me carrying a firearm. She and my dad worked hard to bring me up in a good neighborhood and send me to a good private school. I now live in a neighborhood that, while not quite as good as the area I grew up in was/is, is… Read More »
After watching Wizard at his first IDPA match, I decided to give it a go this month. I pretty much went with his initial goals in mind (don’t shoot yourself, don’t shoot anyone else, don’t get DQ’d, don’t come in last). Well, the “don’t come in last” part was more of a “it would be… Read More »
