While Virginia gun owners are trying to take back their state this month from the radical far-left that pushed through most of Ralph Northam’s extremist gun control agenda in 2020, elsewhere around the country anti-gunners will once again fall back on their favorite boilerplate arguments to do the same in your state. You can have some fun with these people, while teaching them a lesson and making the extremists look really foolish.

Once again, the annual FBI Uniform Crime Report reveals that rifles and shotguns are used in a fraction of homicides involving firearms, re-kindling the question gun prohibition lobbying groups have not directly answered: Why should any rifle or shotgun type be banned?
Expanded Homicide Data Table 11 in this year’s spread sheets details “murder circumstances by weapon.” It shows an estimated total of 17,754 murder victims, of which 13,620 were killed with firearms, according to the report.

Holland & Holland, a firearms company from England, developed the .375 H&H Magnum in 1912 – a cartridge that would eventually come to be called the “Queen of the Medium Bores.” The .375 H&H Mag was specifically designed for hunting big game in Africa, and it was successful. The cartridge is sufficient to harvest any large game animal on the continent, including the Big Five species. Although it's been around for over 100 years, it still warrants respect, and is often chosen by both professional hunters and sportsmen.

POTD: Scarce E. Carlstrom Sleeve Pistol – 1930s Concealed Carry

Welcome to today’s Photo of the Day! Despite the patent description, this old concealed carry gun is not automatic in any sense of the word. It works a lot more like a bolt-action system in which the breech is opened, a cartridge is inserted, and the breech is locked shut. The E. Carlstrom Sleeve Pistol looks a lot like some sort of glove or wrist gun you would see issued to secret agents, but this was marketed for the everyman to wear on his sleeve and have a form of legitimate concealed self-defense. The caliber is only listed as 30 caliber centerfire and considering this patent is prior to the 30 carbine cartridge it can be left to speculation.

The Second Amendment Isn’t About Hunting, But …

When hunting is mentioned near any political conversation today, it is a point of order for those who understand the basis of the Second Amendment to say with conviction: “The Second Amendment isn’t about hunting.” This statement is a reaction to anti-Second Amendment groups and politicians—such as President Joe Biden (D) and former senator and presidential candidate John Kerry (D)—who have tried to divide and conquer gun owners by “going hunting” or mentioning hunters and then claiming “true” sportsmen and women don’t need this or that type of gun.

Dwelling within the heart of all dedicated deer hunters is the belief that the biggest bucks live in the deep woods. There’s no true definition for “deep woods.” It varies from coast to coast. It might be one corner of the back 40, or near on the old homestead, or miles into public hunting ground, just over the next ridge. But getting to the deep woods always requires effort; it means a steep climb or crossing the river or crawling across clear cuts.

Think about it. By using a microphone as a primer or sorts, or bait if you will, we could lure an infinitely long line of politicians within range of some type of air collection device. Of course, we’d need to develop a way to cool it, as they tend to eject multitudinous volumes of hot air. Boyle’s Law would need revisiting, too — the sheer volume could never be compressed into any known containment vessel, at least one adhering to the laws of physics. |

Wyoming-based Weatherby this month announced a series of four new bolt-action Mark V rifles in its second-generation of Backcountry hunting rifles. The new guns are a follow-up to the original Backcountry line that was introduced in 2019. All Backcountry 2.0 models include a brand-new carbon-fiber Peak 44 Blacktooth stock. Other standard items are a user-adjustable single-stage TriggerTech trigger, a deep spiral-fluted bolt with a skeletonized bolt knob that threads onto the bolt handle, and an Accubrake ST muzzle device. All Mark V rifles are guaranteed to shoot a sub-MOA three-shot group at 100 yards from a cold barrel. Most will be available in either left- or right-hand formats.

My First .22 Plinker: Budget Ruger 10/22 for the Win

I’ve discovered few joys in life as predictable as plinking with a budget rifle that doesn’t pretend to be anything more. My first .22 LR rifle was a plain Jane Ruger 10/22 complete with the modern plastic trigger group and a cheap off-brand scope probably better suited for an airsoft rifle. The closest thing to a frill on that gun was an updated bolt release that made it just a hair easier to load and shoot on the range. I’ll make no claims about this gun holding magical sub-MOA groups with just the right ammo, but it can still score some decent marks with minimal effort at 50 and 100 yards even when just burning through budget Federal bulk pack ammo.

OH: Ohio Bill That Calls Gun Sales Essential Gets First Hearing

A bill that declares some firearms businesses and services life-sustaining and essential during a public emergency got its first hearing Tuesday in front of the Ohio House Government Oversight Committee. House Bill 325, introduced by Rep. Scott Wiggam, R-Wooster, would not allow the state to stop the sale of firearms during a state of emergency, similar to what happened when certain businesses were declared essential when Gov. Mike DeWine issued a stay-at-home order at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. |

Pennsylvania lawmakers have introduced Red Flag laws in Harrisburg, which they consider “reasonable” to protect gun owners and others. Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPO) are better known to the public as Red Flag laws. These laws let police seize guns of those that they believe pose a threat to themselves or others. ERPOs have been a controversial tool of law enforcement since the accused do not get to defend themselves against the accusations in court before a judge issues an ERPO.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Some writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins ... Society is in every state a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one. — THOMAS PAINE |
