Surely you are aware that Staples (the office supply store) has become the most recent target of the Misguided Moms. Yesterday they tried to deliver a petition to the company’s headquarters telling them to ban guns in their stores and they were met my security and asked to leave. This, of course began a social media tirade on Staples Facebook page with the pro-2A crowd thanking them for their decision, the anti-rights crowd pushing their …

If you follow any gun related pages on Facebook, you’ve probably seen this link making the rounds today. It’s a puff piece, written to get people worked up and it seems like it’s working. A couple things: Facebook may announce company policy changes for gun-related pages in the coming weeks They MAY make an announcement about changes, and I MAY find a breifcase filled with 10lbs of $20 bills today. The social network has been under …

I was doing some cleaning in the garage tonight, and I found most of these scattered around on my workbench, under my workbench, and one of them in a stash of .223 brass I didn’t know I had… I’d always heard the saying “Most shooters end up with a box of holsters they don’t use anymore” and I guess that’s true, the sad part is that there are holsters in the pile for guns that …

I came across this tweet in my Twitter feed this evening, and I nearly lost it: I’ve always been a fan of British humor, and this is no exception. Well played JobsiteUK, well played.

Looks like the Illinois State Police are saying that the first IL concealed carry permits could be issued to citizens as early as next week. I hope y’all have your holsters broken in already…
