Where a Hispanic Catholic, and a Computer Geek write about Gun Rights, Self Defense and whatever else we can think about.
I applied to get my Massachusetts non-resident LTC to make living on the New Hampshire/Massachusetts border easier.
Today, I got my email from Massachusetts that I am scheduled for my interview for my LTC.
My interview is… in February.
That’s a long wait.
There is a trend in the gun community that I fucking loathe with a burning passion.
The celebration of gun e-thots.
I grew up watching Shooting USA on Saturday mornings with my dad.
I was inspired by guys like Tom Knapp, Jerry Miculek, and Bob Munden. I loved the exhibition shooters.
Today, what I get hit with on YouTube and Twitter is shit like this.
She is an OnlyFans internet porn star who also likes guns.
She doesn’t shoot well. She turns ammo into recoil that makes her jiggle.
Then she posts just dangerous as fuck stunts like this.
Her head is downrange of the muzzle and in the way of the muzzle blast without adequate hearing protection. But it’s sexy, so it gets millions of views and is monetized.
Gun culture should be disgusted by this, instead it’s cheered on by the tactical gun-bro crowd.
Call me a boomer Fudd all you want, but if this is the new gun culture, I want nothing to do with it.
This story is weird…

Special ops soldier under investigation in fatal shooting of Chechen man in North Carolina
An Army special operations soldier who fatally shot a man outside his North Carolina home earlier this month has not been charged with a crime amid an ongoing investigation, Army and law enforcement officials said Tuesday.
The soldier shot 35-year-old Ramzan Daraev at about 8:15 p.m. on May 3 after reporting a trespasser on the property in Carthage, N.C., according to the Moore County Sheriff’s Department. Deputies responding to the call found Daraev, a native of Chechnya in Russia, dead of multiple gunshot wounds, according to sheriff’s department officials
Sheriff’s deputies were told Daraev was a subcontractor for a local utility company and was working on that job when he was confronted and killed. The sheriff’s department said it was still working Tuesday to confirm Daraev’s employment status.
Daraev’s body was found by deputies about 250 yards from the road near a power line on the soldier’s property. He did not have any identification on his body, nor was he wearing utility company clothing or in possession of utility equipment or tools, according to the sheriff’s office. Family members and “an international identification” found in his vehicle were used to identify Daraev, sheriff’s officials said.
After the shooting, Moore County deputies called in an FBI special agent who supplied a translator to speak to others who claimed to be Daraev’s coworkers. An FBI spokesperson said the bureau was not currently involved in the investigation.
Honestly, thos whole things sounds like it could be the opening episode of a new season of Jack Ryan.
It’s not ridiculous to think this may have been an enemy operative scouting as a prelude to an aggressive act against the United States.
We’ve shown consistent weakness on both immigration security and confronting foreign countries, so why wouldn’t they be more active in fucking with us on our home soil.
Whatever this is, it feels bad.

That is a B&T APC9K PRO semi-automatic pistol with a brace.
It’s a 9mm with a 4.3 inch barrel.
That is not enough for large, tough, thick-skin game like boar, or even feral pigs.
Shooting animals, even nuisance ones, with the wrong gun is cruel and stupid.
But trust an internet celebrity idiot with more money than brains or decency to do shit like that online for monetized clout.
This asshole needs to lose his guns until he can be responsible with them.
Don’t be like him.

Update:
I found video of his hunt.

That’s not a hunt, that’s a drive-by killing.
It shouldn’t take that many rounds to drop an animal.
It shouldn’t have to be speared to put it out of its misery.
You shouldn’t hunt from a moving platforms (unless you are an absolute professional).
No ear protection, no eye protection, just cruelty.
Fuch this guy to the end of the earth and back again.
A Chicago mom who called 911 during a terrifying break-in was left on her own for hours — with dispatchers telling her to call her local representative to demand more police funding.
Michelle called the emergency hotline six times after coming face-to-face with two masked bandits, only for the strained supervisor to tell her the city’s severe budget cuts had left them with a bare-bones staff.
“A gentleman got on and said sorry to say we have no units to send you … then there was an awkward pause,” Michelle told NBC Chicago Wednesday…
“He also recommended I call my alderman and I said why, and he said encourage him to hire more police. The dispatcher also asked me if I would consider defending myself … if I had a weapon or considered getting one.”
Note the bolded statement.
This is the reality of living in a major metropolitan area, especially one run by Democrats.
Crime is up and police are down.
You are on your own, possibly for hours.
You need to be aware of that and prepared to do what is necessary to save yourself.
A gun, a flashlight, and a fire extinguisher are your best friends in an emergency.
Semper Paratus, always be prepared.
For Christmas, I got Miguel a Sig P365.
He, in turn, gifted me a Cuisinart vertical propane smoker.
It’s been sitting outside since December because winter in New Hampshire sucks.
With the holiday weekend and the weather being beautiful, I decided to try it out.
I picked up a brisket, boneless leg of lamb, and boneless chicken thighs, as well as a bag of hickory chunks.
The brisket was dry rubbed with a mix of kosher salt, sugar, brown sugar, paprika, and black pepper, and left in the fridge for 48 hours.
The other meats got dry rubbed for three hours with some dry rubs that were gifted to me.
At noon, the brisket went in.
Three hours later, the rest of the meat and some Vidalia onions went in too.
At dinner time (about 7:00) everything came out.
Man cannot live by meat alone (he probably can, but his wife makes him make vegetables), so I did corn on the cob and potatoes on the grill.
After the meat rested, the spread was ready.
It was delicious.
I need to work on the timing a bit better, the thighs got a tad dry, but this was my first time.
We are going to be eating smoked meat for the next couple of weeks.
Thank you Miguel.
P.S. I need to refill my Atorvastatin.
