Heard anything in the news lately about the terrorist student that drove an SUV into a crown in Chapel Hill? No? Besides the fact that he is a muslim terrorist, which keeps him out of the US limelight but has he also shown that the gun laws on the books actually work?
It’s no surprise that the Brady Campaign is launching a new Anti-Gun Campaign based largely on the supposed illegal gun market caused by pro-gun states living beside anti-gun states. But I saw this coming over a week ago because the Indianapolis paper’s story reads just like a Brady Campaign literature. Interesting coincidence the Congress is [...]
So there is one small victory on the “canned hunting” front. I was somewhat divided on the whole issue for a time and when that happens I will always lend the benefit of the doubt to the private party versus the government. But over the coarse of the debate my mind has been slowly moved [...]
I mentioned before that I’m deciding which leather to put the recently acquired EMF in. After browsing El Paso Saddlery’s website over serveral days I’m down to 3 options and a half dozen questions. So last night I wrote a fairly detailed email to El Paso Saddlery’s published email address explaining what I wanted, for [...]
Tony Blankley hits it out of the park (which tends to be par for him) in today’s Washington Times column Mexican illegals vs. American voters… The Senate is attempting to legislate into the teeth of the will of the American public. The Senate Judiciary Committeemen — and probably a majority of the Senate — are [...]
If Kennedy likes it we are so screwed.
Now that the EMF is functional it’s up to choosing the leather. I knew from the start I’d be shopping with El Paso Saddelry (though Kirk Patrick, Triple K, Griffin’s, J.R. Morgan and a few others were all in the running) but now that it has come to decision time I’m stumped by my options. [...]
So now Jim McDermott is a felon or at least committed a felonious act, I wonder how long, or if, the ethics committee will notice and how much press it will get? Here a Dem violates the rights of 2 Repubs and all the papers want to talk about is that evil Tom Delay who [...]
I just received a call from the gunshop and his gunsmith found the problem to simply be an oversized cylinder lock which he promptly fixed. And it’s ready for me to pick up. Glad I had the shop smith look at it instead of sending it all the way back to EMF. Granted EMF’s average [...]
Now I’m bummed, the EMF has to be repaired either by EMF themselves (who have a rep for above top-notch customer service) or by the shop’s local smith. I opted for the local smith because even if I have to pay him it’s still likely to be cheapr than overnighting the revolver back to EMF. [...]
