I almost feel sorry for businessweek.com. It can’t be easy covering the firearms industry or gun control-related issues when your boss is the country’s most rabid proponent of civilian disarmament. Bloomberg’s tasked Paul Barrett, author of Glock, America’s Gun, with the job. As I pointed out in my review of his book, Barrett “supports passing laws to address boss Bloomberg’s pet peeve: ‘closing the gun show loophole’ (mandating FBI background checks for private sales) and ‘ballistic fingerprinting’ (creating a system to trace spent cartridges to a particular gun).” So he’s not a friend of ours. But Barrett can’t be seen to be shilling for Mayor Mike. So he hides his bias in pieces like A Bolder Gun Industry Brings Out Battlefield-Style Weapons [above]. Only . . . the link underneath his conclusion takes readers to a story saying women’s self-defense is the story of SHOT. See? Now that’s funny!
Way to go Rep Lummis! I may be in love 🙂
These are a piece of history that needs to be returned to the US as we LOANED them to Korea.
Someone actually used the word, “deplore”?
I bet he says crap like “rue the day” too…
I think Roberts cut from a similar vein. He’s used deplore and rue the day on multiple occasions.
I know it’s been stated before but reiteration is needed:
If a criminal is intent on doing you harm make them regret it. If they have a brick, knife, gun, bat ……I hope to make it as painful as possible on them. Sheep get slaughtered shortly after being shorn !
Did you find this at AVN while in Vegas?
Created a group on facebook, at least we can gauge interest there. “Americans Demand Action”

It’s Oregon and Washington. Mostly. It’s pretty neat.
The son of a friend bought an AR BCG yesterday.
I’ll have to keep an eye on the new site.
Way cool.
Sharon Watts isn’t looking too well today. I hope she feels better soon.
What’s funny is I have weapons that have been on the battlefield and most likely ended the lives of many Germans and Japanse. The antis will begrudgingly say they are ok with me owning them because they don’t look as scary. I even have the greatly feared pant wetting bayonet lugs. They will still kill you just as dead and my M1 carbine made in the 40s holds 15 or 30 rounds! OMG! My Garand fires 8 rounds of facist killing goodness as quick as I can pull the trigger and reloads quickly.
Now, my ARs and AKs have never seen a battlefield or killed a single person. But they are scary and black and have rails and optics and scooes on them! There is almost zero chance they will be used in any battlefield or even in self defense. But those are the weapons they want to forcibly remove from my possession.
Now my point (I just felt like ranting). I like military style weapons. It’s ok to like them and own them. This idiot is trying to make it sound weird but collecting military arms has been happening for more decades than any person alive today has seen. collecting ARs and AKs are as close to modern milsurp as you can get.
this dgu reminds me of one of the stories in the most recent NRA magazine where the homeowner pretended to be blind until he was able to gain control of one of his firearms.
And apparently I’m banned for asking why they keep scrubbing their comments despite claiming to support an open and honest discussion. Was pretty quick too, didn’t take them 5 minutes.
usually i pretend to not be drunk so my wife doesn’t get mad.
Because when violent criminals break into my house, what I really need is some self-reflection

And, the restoration of real duels would rapidly deplete the number of lawyers. You’d have to get a number to get your “shot” at them.
