Criminal charges against twin brothers from Gresham, Oregon involving apparent gun trafficking have added fuel to the campaign for tougher gun laws in the Beaver State including a limit on the number of firearms one may purchase in a month.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Portland, “Edward Charles Green and his twin brother Thomas Edward Green III, both 23 and residents of Gresham, Oregon, have been charged by criminal complaint with falsifying information in connection with the acquisition of a firearm and making false statements in a federal firearms licensee (FFL) record.” Gresham is a city located just east of Portland. |

A Sioux City gun law is no longer in the books.
The Sioux City City Council repealed a city code that regulated hand guns within the city. Back in April, Governor Kim Reynolds signed House File 756 into law, giving Iowans the right to purchase, open carry or conceal carry hand guns without a permit. |

Quite possibly the most iconic cartridge in the United States, the .45 Colt was developed by gunmaker Samuel Colt as a black powder cartridge in 1872, for the Colt Single Action Army (aka the Peacemaker) revolver. This cartridge features a .454-inch bullet inside a rimmed, straight-walled case that measures 1.285 inches in length. Commonly called the .45 Long Colt (LC), the overall length of the round is 1.6 inches. It features a large pistol primer and is pressurized to 14,000 pounds per square inch (psi). |

Your hand wraps around the familiar grip of the 1911, the checkering on the mainspring housing locking into your hand while the checkering on the slim wooden grip panels welcome your fingertips. You rack the slide firmly against the necessarily strong recoil spring, jacking a 10mm Auto round into the chamber. You center the red fiber optic front sight on where you want to drill the hole, you roll the trigger through its short, smooth travel, and you feel the exhilarating jolt as you unleash some 700 foot-pounds of energy. |

While being driven around recently in the gun-control utopia of Chicago, U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill) claimed the driver of a car next to his leaned out the window and shot a gun into the air. “He could have just as easily been shooting the gun at us!” said the senator, possibly rattled by the reality gap between the “A minus” rating Illinois has for its strict gun laws from anti-gun group Giffords, and the impact those laws appear to have on criminal behavior.

The number of active concealed carry licenses and permits in the U.S. has soared to more than 21.52 million this year, according to the annual report from the Crime Prevention Research Center. The report, from CPRC founder and President John Lott, Carlisle E. Moody Research Director and Professor at the College of William & Mary, and research associate Rujun Wang, says the spike represents “a 48% increase since 2016,” and amounts to “a 10.5% increase over the number of permits we counted a year ago in 2020.” |

For many decades, gun control proponents who saw their fortunes wane in legislatures from coast to coast and who were unable to get traction with Congress could at least console themselves with the thought that activist courts had their backs. The Second Amendment, after all, had been all but written out of the U.S. Bill of Rights by law professors and politically-minded judges, as cities and even the U.S. Congress increasingly adopted gun control in the Twentieth Century.

If you’re like me, you save all the “magic plastic” anticorrosion bags many new firearms arrive in from the factory. They’re not really magic but do an otherworldly job in preventing corrosion on firearms or most other metallic objects. Now, you don’t have to save a collection of wonky discard bags because — coming soon — are API Firearms Storage Bags. |

Whether you call it the ABL, the SAFN, the Model 49 or simply the FN-49, it is one of the most elegant self-loading military rifles ever made. Author Wayne Johnson did the firearm community a service with this book’s first edition in 2004. The second edition of The FN-49—The Last Elegant Old-World Military Rifle is more than double the size of the previous work with much new information incorporated into its pages. The author’s continued research into the guns over the intervening 15 years has resulted in a 460-page book with more than 1,100 photographs and illustrations, including many combat and training images from its use around the world. |
