A friend of mine treated himself to a new revolver for Hannukah, a Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum. He and I took it to the range a few days ago to break it in. For the uninitiated, the S&W .44 Magnum is the gun Dirty Harry describes as the “the most powerful handgun in the world; would blow your head clean off.” It’s unbelievable fun to shoot, and, as you might guess, very, very loud. |

This past fall in an Open Season column, I lauded the performance of Federal's Premium Trophy Copper sabot slugs on the shooting range. The particular round was the 12-gauge, 3-inch with a 300-grain bullet and an advertised muzzle velocity of 2,000 feet per second, putting it neck and neck with the fastest slugs available. I like high-velocity ammunition for hunting because if the accuracy is there, the bullet will shoot flatter and have more down-range energy and killing power than the same weight bullet traveling at a slower speed.

To do this job right, one has to keep secrets. And Colt dropped the biggest secret of 2017 on me, then told me to keep my yap shut—until now. Finally, the biggest news in new gun introductions is out. Colt is back in the double-action revolver business. The new gun, harkening back to a “snake” name (ever heard of a Python?), is called the Colt Cobra. I was able to examine the prototype at Colt’s offices while filming for “American Rifleman Television” last year.

An unhinged man tried to steal the guns of three cops just hours after the New Year’s Eve ball drop in Times Square, police sources said. Scott Zaleski, 40, first tried to take the firearms from the holsters of two uniformed officers at West 37th Street and Broadway about 1:30 a.m. Sunday, the sources said. The man failed to swipe those guns, so he ran down to West 36th Street where he targeted another cop. |

No one knows exactly when the tradition of the Cherryville New Year’s Shooters started, but it is known that the practice of shooting black powder muskets on New Year’s Eve was brought to North Carolina by the early German settlers. “Some people say we are re-enacting but we’re not re-enacting – we’re still doing it,” Cherryville New Year’s Shooters secretary Gary Dellinger said. |

A local waitress who fired her gun at three fleeing robbers and lost her job over it is finding support from other gun owners.
Heather Burkinshaw-Stanley, known as “Shorty” to her friends and customers, had been working third shift for the Waffle House on 1363 S. Highway 29 [Newnan, GA] for almost two years.
On Thursday morning, Stanley was doing prep work when a man approached the cashier after finishing his meal. Along with two other men, he produced a note demanding money from the cashier or everyone in the restaurant would be shot, according to Stanley. ...
Stanley stopped what she was doing, ran to her car in the parking lot and grabbed a 9mm pistol and fired a single shot toward the fleeing robbers.

The .22 Win. Mag. Rimfire cartridge is the subject of much debate when it comes to self-defense. Some ask "why?" and others say "buy." But that doesn’t stop North American Arms from providing a catalog of ultra-small revolving-cylinder pistols that conceal easily in the smallest of pockets. |

These are his own words: “Defend the Second Amendment of our Constitution. The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed upon. Period. |

Saturday was the absolute last day Californians could pick up a Armalite Rifle, or AR-15, with a bullet button legally within the state. Starting Sunday, state Senate Bill 880 becomes law reclassifying "bullet button" firearms as assault weapons. Since Governor Jerry Brown signed that bill into law in July, gun stores across the state have been reporting record sales of the AR-15. But the new law has left many with questions about what they can sell in 2017. |

Donald Trump says he will eliminate gun free zones, which is where the majority of mass shooting have happened. He was incensed that soldiers on US Military bases aren’t allowed to carry firearms. Referencing the five highly trained soldiers who were slaughtered on a US military base by a lone gunman because they didn’t have weapons, and referencing that the majority of gun violence occurs in places with the strictest gun laws, Trump stated... |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
