Democrats cheering the legal attacks on the National Rifle Association might be celebrating too soon, and the media perpetuates a myth about gun control; now comes the pushback from people who see things through different-colored glasses.
Writing at Politico, Bill Scher quotes progressive ‘rising star’ Mondaire Jones asserting, “Dissolving the NRA would remove one of the biggest impediments to gun safety measures at the state and federal level.” |

Two trend lines related to our issue have diverged in a remarkable way that indicates that firearms and the 2nd Amendment are fundamental American mainstays. We’ve covered the string of record-breaking NICS background check numbers since the onset of the pandemic, and July NICS data continues that trend. New data from Gallup shows that gun control has slid further down Americans’ list of most important issues, and a deeper dive into NICS data suggests that new gun owners and the need for self-defense are driving the 2020 surge.

The results of a Rasmussen phone poll of likely voters published last week found that 27 percent of those with guns in the house purchased one within the past six months. Likewise, the survey found that support for more restrictions on firearms has fallen from 64 percent just a year ago to 52 percent today.

“Ghost guns” have become one of the boogeymen that many anti-Second Amendment extremists are hyping. One of the major reasons has been the development of 3D printing and the increasing popularity of the unfinished receivers. For Second Amendment supporters, the technological advances are exciting – they could make it easier to exercise our constitutional rights. |

There’s a reason 5.56 NATO ARs are so prolific, and it’s mainly because they are so darn fun to shoot. In other words, the AR’s 3 ft.-lbs. of recoil energy is like playing patty cake with a toddler. Fact is, there are plenty of lightweight, AR-style 7.62 NATO/.308 Win. carbines available now, so if weekend warriors valued terminal ballistics over recoil, these ARs would dominate shooting ranges.r. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
