On Thursday night a woman in her early 30s was murdered in Ashkelon,” israelnationalnews.com reports. “The killer was a security guard in his 60s, the son of an elderly woman who the victim worked for as a caretaker. He used a gun provided by the security company he worked for. Several days earlier an off-duty security guard shot his wife to death during an argument in the couple’s car.” So . . . disarm Israelis? For some left-leaning Knesset members, ken. “I intend to create legislature that will change the current reality by requiring guards to leave their weapons when their shifts end,” the head of the Knesset’s Internal Affairs Committee Miri Regev said. “We must reduce the number of weapons in private hands,” MK Michal Rozin agreed. “I call on the minister to immediately implement his order regarding leaving weapons at work.” Good luck with that. Or not.
Yea, I’m a do it yourselfer on steel targets. Take a plate of cheap carbon steel and torch it till its red hot then quench it in cold water a few times. Works great. When it wears out – just make another one.
I’m not paying 399 for a dualing tree stand from action target. I could get a handgun for that price, or a small box of ammo.
This just…reeks.
Thats fine. Disarm them. When the Palestinians come marching in and everyone is massacred we won’t have to hear about it anymore.
Yet you will then hear me eternally and daily cursing the gun-grabbing politicians and their sheeple who are responsible so therefore you will be happier and less irritated hearing about it from them on occasion.
I don’t exactly know who you are talking about – but I do see that you are cursing gun grabbing politicians – so I agree!
I think i’ll fill this out with bogus information and send to them to harass them. After all, they are harassing gun owners.
The fact that Israel is armed to the teeth is the only thing keeping that country from being obliterated. That whole area of the world is a powder keg.
Good to see this covered.
I attended this as a student graduating later this year. The report is accurate as far as the participation is concerned and the level of the seminars were very good.
Students did have the opportunity to display firearms as well. All firearms were inspected before allowed on the floor and the actions were locked on all long guns. Handguns were also locked unless the firing pin was removed. This is on par with what I have seen at both SHOT show and the NRA annual meeting.
Yes, unless you are very good, you are not going to make a fortune in this line of work. It is very satisfying though.
Look, Israel was founded by a bunch of pseudo-communists. They love their nanny state. WTF else do you expect from them?
(And, BTW, I’m an Orthodox Jew.)
Just picked up my new 1911 Nitron 3 hours ago, and immediately went to the range to see what it would do. The good: It shot amazing groups at 7 yards and felt great in my hand. The bad: 3 FTC’s and multiple Failure to Locks in the 70 or so rounds I shot. The FTC’s were bad enough, FTL’s were the worst as the gun wouldn’t lock more than it would. THIS WAS WITH STOCK MAGS AND WILSON COMBAT MAGS! The gun is going back to Sig, as is my P220 that shoots low left for everyone who knows how to shoot and tries it. Sig, you’re breaking my heart!
If liberals could they would replace the US Constitution with the New York Times!
This guy needs to move to Cuba where he can be safe in a ‘gun free’ nation!
That’s mikeb on the left — as usual.
One says to the other: “Just say ‘How.’ Maybe they won’t notice we’re not from around here.”
Tighty whities are tacticool.

Napolean Dynamite II: Boyfreinds with Good Skills
I’m shocked and disappointed to learn that my gun review article on the MAS 49/56 did not break the top 20.
The Wearagonchie tribe was hunted to extinction shortly after meeting Europeans.
They were not mourned.
The Steyr SSG 69 PII is a wonderful rifle. I’ve shot several dozens of 1000 yard NRA F-Class Tactical Rifle matches with her. Using a Nightforce NXS 5×22, she gives me consistently 92% accuracy using 175 gr. Sierra BTHP using 45 gr. of Varget, 2645 fps. She is a standard rifle besides using a McMillan stock and a Picatinny rail mount.
On the plastic issue, it states clearly on the operating manual that any exposure of solvents will make the plastic brittle. Avoid splashing around the Hoppes #9 you will be just fine. When Styria Arms exports their new trigger guard I will be happy to give it a try.
Usings Frog lube will make your bolt as smooth as silk.
The SSG 69 is far superior to any factory Rem 700, but it is on par with a high quality custom Rem 700 that has been well tweaked. If you require greater than 92% accuracy at 1000 yards (which is Sharp Shooter and not an Expert). If you want to make Expert (better than 92% accuracy) it is better to get a custom Rem 700 where you can get change out to a custom match barrels. It is virtually impossible to change the barrel on the SSG. Besides that I love my SSG.
Still more manly than a gun grabber.
The piece seemed rather shallow… & obvious, Randy
The variety of ideas on this thread is really interesting. Thanks for everyone that was willing to discuss this in a healthy and professional manner.
Interesting, and sensible overall. I worry about the idea of “environmental fascists,” though; I see no intention on the part of world leaders to slaughter 9/10ths of the population.
Hell, we finally learning to stop breeding like insects, and have the declining birth rates to show it. My grand kids will have a world that’s not 100% cornfields and condos without and mass slaughter.
That said, I’m glad to know of him.
They have dead kids and can count them. We have live ones and only God knows how many were saved. That is hard to overcome but must be attempted. I live in a rural, upstate New York countywith more cows than people. We are going to be heard.(not herded)
