Our trifecta of “interesting” pocket dumps, starting with Joel the party guy and his bottle of bourbon whiskey to the ‘Concerned Tactical Citizen‘ continues with today’s “Silent Pocket Assassin” EDC ensemble from Everyday Carry. Stian from Norway sends this. In America, this would serve as a train wreck, but maybe things are different in Norway. […]
Anti-gun billionaire Michael Bloomberg’s The Trace is reporting that the NRA has ended its Carry Guard program. Well, the insurance portion, anyway. The training aspect of Carry Guard remains, at least according to the web site. From The Trace: After two years of state investigations and numerous lawsuits, the National Rifle Association has stopped offering […]
Reader Steve S. emailed last night to let us know that now virtually anyone can afford to buy an AR-15 platform rifle. Palmetto State Armory is offing their PSA Freedom carbine length upper and “classic” lower at noteworthy prices, both with tactical peanut butter furniture. The specs are what you’d expect in an entry-level AR. […]
Watch TV, movies or just surf the gun web and you’ll see lots of images like the one at the top. You’ll see it plenty at the range, too. The shooter in that photo is using way too much finger in the trigger. When you place that much of your finger across the trigger, it’s […]
We’ve been repeatedly told by all of the smartest people in politics and the media that mass shootings such as those that we suffer in the US occasionally don’t happen in other countries. That’s a claim that’s been proven false time and time again in places like New Zealand, Norway, France, Canada…we could go on. […]
In any debate, it’s generally not a good idea to invoke Nazism. The first one to do that generally loses. Godwin’s law and all that. But that doesn’t always mean the underlying argument is without merit. In 1941, Congress passed the Property Requisition Act. The government, in anticipation of war, authorized the government to take […]
No liquor today at the Everyday Carry Pocket Dump of the Day. Instead, we have the Concerned Tactical Citizen line-up from Jonathon in Seattle. Given how Seattle has devolved into an Antifa paradise, he’s a wise man to carry. He’s not so wise to carry on an empty chamber with that GLOCK 19 Gen 3 […]
TRP stands for Tactical Response Pistol which, when you consider the sum of the Springfield 1911 TRP 10mm longslide’s components, it hardly seems designed for tactical use. Springfield offers two 10mm TRP Operator models with either 5″ or 6″ slides. This is more or less just a line of guns that share common features, but […]
This is TTAG’s weekly roundup of legal and legislative news affecting guns, the gun business and gun owners’ rights. Illinois Gun Dealer Oversight Law Challenged Last January, Illinois governor J. B. Pritzker signed into law a strict licensing regime for the state’s firearm dealers. It required any retailer selling guns in the state to go […]
A lot has happened at the NRA in the past month. NRA-Institute for Legislative Action Executive Director Chris Cox was suspended then resigned. NRA-TV was shut down as part of the NRA formally divorcing itself from its long-time marketing and public relations firm, Ackerman McQueen. Furthermore, the NRA continues to spend almost $2 million per […]
I was among the first to review the brand-new SIG SAUER P365 Manual Safety model here at TTAG. The pistol was so damn good that I put 2,000 rounds through it with zero issues and promptly dismissed all my other carry guns. For me at least, it’s P365 or bust, kids. That article had some […]
Physician errors and negligence kill about seven times more Americans every year than do firearms (not to mention that two-thirds of gun deaths are self-inflicted). And yet the big doctor groups are very vocal about the “public health crisis” posed by civilian gun ownership. Where are the high profile campaigns, studies and press releases by […]
