Progs give themselves a wedgie . . . Women with guns: The next threat to the Democratic Party – “The marketing approach varies. Smith & Wesson, the firearms giant, uses large interactive weapons displays. Much smaller, boutique companies such as The Well Armed Woman have simple booths. But there is no mistaking the market they’re targeting with feminine-cut camo and pink pistols. There is a lesson within a lesson here. As Democrats continue to make gun control a wedge issue in elections, they underestimate the damage they are doing to their own chances among women, who have been flocking to buy guns in the past few years. These same voters, whom the NRA calls the ‘shy voters,’ also flocked to Donald Trump, and they are unlikely to reverse course before next year’s midterm elections. So as wedge issues go, this one is becoming more of a loser for the Left.”
Don’t hold your breath . . . Smart guns in police holsters – “There is now reason to believe that an RFID smart gun can soon be on the market. Fittingly, the key to speeding its adoption rests with police departments. If they buy these guns in large numbers and demonstrate their viability to the broader market, everything could change.”
OMG! Black rifles! OMG! . . . Allhands: Court says a gun’s looks matter more than its function (yes, really) – “People ask me why I’m such an ardent gun-rights supporter. My answer: Because I believe in making laws that make sense, or that are at least based in reality. That’s my beef especially with so-called “assault weapons” bans. They restrict some firearms but not others that function similarly, and the criteria are most often window dressing — things on guns that may make them look scary but make them no more or less deadly.”
Coulrophobics need not apply . . . Otis Gun Care Renews Partnership with Kids & Clays – “Otis Technology is delighted to announce its renewed partnership with the Kids & Clays Foundation, a charity group whose proceeds benefit various Ronald McDonald House Charities. Otis Technology has partnered with the organization since 2015. The Kids & Clays Foundation is a community of shooting sports enthusiasts committed to supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities and improving the lives of children and their families.”
The Norks kill a few more . . . Kim Jong-Un Guns Down Five Senior Officials With An Anti-Aircraft Gun – “North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un executed another batch of senior officials, South Korea’s spy agency revealed Monday. Kim pulled out the anti-aircraft gun for the execution of five senior officials, charged with submitting false government reports, according to South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS).”
ISSF World Cup New Delhi 2017: China’s golden sweep of rifle and pistol events continues unabated – “China maintained their Golden sweep of all the Rifle and Pistol events held thus far, with day three of competition at the ongoing International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) World Cup (Rifle/Pistol/Shotgun) New Delhi 2017, getting them their fourth and fifth Gold medals of the tournament. They now lead the medal tally comfortably with four Silvers added to their five Gold medals while Italy with one Gold and two Silvers lie a distant second. India lie in fifth place with one Bronze medal along with seven other countries.”
