Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

So you have been wanting an AR 15 but could not afford one

Palmetto State Armory has this deals right now. Some assembly required, but it is fun!

A good quality AR 15 for under $400? I know, it is not a Daniel Defense but you could probably buy 3 of this and have money left for magazines, ammo and maybe a red dot.

Speaking of magazines, they have the D&H 5.56 30rd magazines for 6.99 a pop.

I will be fiscally responsible and only spend money on the upcoming website renewal…damn it. Go ahead, buy one and let me know so I can live vicariously through you.

 

 

Guns always end up with the bad guys, have you noticed that?

This from the injunction just issued against Cody Wilson’s 3D blueprints, page 17:

Until April 2018, the federal government took the position that technical data related to the design and production of weapons using a commercially-available 3D printer posed a threat to world peace and the security and foreign policy of the United States. Some of its concerns related specifically to the undetectable nature of a gun made from plastic. Because they were virtually undetectable in metal detectors and other security equipment, the State Department feared that they could be used in assassination attempts, hijackings, piracy, and terrorist activities. Other concerns related to the portability and ease of a manufacturing process that would allow terrorist groups and embargoed nations to evade sanctions, repair weapons, restock arms supplies, and fuel violent regional conflicts. Both aspects of the technical data at issue would, the State Department feared, subvert the domestic laws of nations with restrictive firearm controls, impairing the United States’ foreign relations with those nations

How come the only foreign people who will get hands in guns are bad? Or at least that is what seems to be used as excuse to restrict rights.  Maybe people in Turkey needs gun to fight against the regime there. Same for Nicaragua, Venezuela and about half the African continent. How many people are out there that can start a fight for democracy and freedom  with a simple 3D printed gun?

Hard To Say I’m Sorry (Not the song)

One of the other repetitive themes in my blog is “Ego Kills.” I have written about how a runaway mouth leads to incremented shit storms and probably a situation that later on we will be sorry about.

Not only we don’t need to win all arguments but it is OK to lose them in the search for not having to post bail or be posted in the morgue. This episode of Michael Bane’s Downrange Radio is perfectly on spot about de-escalation with a simple “I am sorry.” The strategies that he presents are proven and I should know since I have used them. Give it a listen.
