Exploding bullets are back! Well, at least in the fevered imaginations of pearl-clutching, hoplophobic columnists who don’t bother with facts before dispensing domestic relations advice. Here’s part of conversation about the topic that’s been going on at National Review’s The Corner. You know, Charlie, I have been looking all over for some of those “exploding […]
A Home Depot department head sends us his everyday carry ensemble today. Most of it, at least. Courtesy of Everyday Carry. Celeste1! says this of his submission: This is the essentials I carry every day, I forgot my pen and the holster and mag pouch I carry everyday along with watch bracelet etc. I’ll post […]
To all of the pro-gun dads out there, thanks for getting your kids into firearms. Fatherhood is a very important role in one’s life from a personal level, I want to say thanks, Dad, for teaching me about firearms. Thanks for getting me into shooting, collecting, and more importantly . . . for teaching me […]
By NRA-ILA Despite no longer living in the White House, former President Barack Obama continues to be a headache to law-abiding Americans. On May 30, Obama spoke at a digital innovation event in Brazil. During the onstage conversation, Obama said, “Our gun laws in the United States don’t make much sense. Anybody can buy any […]
A while ago, there was a list of some great pocket pistols options if you’re inclined toward a small .380 ACP pistol for concealed carry and/or self-defense. Here are a few more.

Another Father’s Day. What was it this year, a pair of socks? A set of socket wrenches? Maybe a(nother) ‘World’s Greatest Dad‘ coffee mug? Gee, thanks guys! Now that you’ve eaten your special breakfast with the kiddies and said all the obligatory thank-you’s, it’s time for a real Father’s Day present. Which means (if you’re lucky) […]
Bless Jessica Trame’s little heart. She takes her job as chief of the Illinois State Police Firearms Services Bureau very seriously. Seriously enough, in fact, to email deceased Illinois gun dealers seeking their compliance with Kathleen Willis’ new Gun Dealer Licensing Act. The Gun Dealer Licensing mess stands as a giant hot mess for firearms retailerw. […]
The anti-gun left will never stop inventing reasons that Americans should be deprived of the individual right to keep and bear arms. They hate guns and the people who own and carry them. You’ll have heard it said by many liberals and even progressives that the Second Amendment centers on arming militias in a post-colonial […]
SoCal Jack sends everything including his pants in today’s Everyday Carry Pocket Dump of the Day. Yes, indeed. He sums it up nicely. This is my current functional EDC; nothing fancy. The gun’s mag has a Magguts +1 and the spare mag SI extension is a +2 for a total of 18 rounds, either HST’s […]
By NRA-ILA After signing six gun control measures into law a year ago, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy warned that “Our work is far from done.” Several new bills are now making the rounds in a state already notorious for its extreme and oppressive firearm laws.
