So Mr. C. hails from Illinois and carries a Bersa Thunder .380 pistol. Nothing wrong with a .380, but it works a lot better when you carry something besides ball ammo! Here’s today’s Everyday Carry submission, entitled Car Salesman’s EDC. I recommend anything with XTP bullets, but frankly any hollow-point gives better performance than FMJs. […]
The Washington Examiner reports that the vast majority of Democrats expect to see politically-motivated violence resulting from the current political war of words. In fact, 91% of Democrats believe this, compared to “only” 61% of Republicans. Here’s an excerpt from the Examiner story: After a week that saw President Trump and his foes toss toxic […]
On his GunTalk radio show and website, Tom Gresham has added his voice to the cacophony calling for the ouster of Wayne LaPierre as Executive Director at the National Rifle Association. “The CEO has failed,” Gresham wrote. “…[I]t’s time for a new leader.” Gresham has had his “Gun Talk” radio show since 1995 and has […]
Do you remember learning about the famous episode of fake news in 1948 when the Chicago Tribune’s predecessor prematurely called the 1948 presidential race for Dewey over Truman? Well, today’s fake news network has prematurely called the NRA’s influence into question for the 2020 election cycle. America’s worst-rated cable news operation served up another heaping […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Joel from Indiana sends his “Time to Party” collection for today’s Everyday Carry submission. So, Joel carries both an American Defense AR pistol and a bottle of Elijah Craig bourbon. Although, it looks as though he’s run dry on the Elijah Craig unless they’ve come out with a “silver” version. I’m not a bourbon guy […]
Chicago’s new mayor, Lori Lightfoot, blames police for Chicago’s spiraling violent crime problem. Of course, she doesn’t blame the Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx, now famous for the sweetheart deal she cut for Jussie Smollett. Nor does she blame soft-on-crime judges, affordable bail, dysfunctional neighborhoods or the absence of fathers in families. It could […]
SLD, a retired gent from Michigan sends us his “Small town sultry summer evening carry.” While I love his description, for me “everyday carry” is pretty much everyday unless I’m going to someplace non-permissive. But heh, more power to Mr. SLD. Love the classic Colt Detective Special with Stag grips. I find them appealing, and […]
Chicago has a crime problem. And a criminal justice system problem that’s just as bad. In fact, the two go hand in hand as criminals feel emboldened by an utter lack of meaningful consequences to gun criminal behavior. A case this week exemplifies this perfectly. A drunk father, holding a loaded, stolen 9mm handgun threatens […]
