We’re getting a late start here at Triangle Tactical, but I’ve got a lot of emergency preparedness content heading your way for the rest of the month. Remember, it’s still hurricane season, and we haven’t had a single storm even come close to the US yet. You should be ready for anything the atlantic could throw at us, and if you aren’t, you should get ready ASAP. Keep your eyes here on the blog for …

I’ve been pretty busy this week, so I haven’t done a whole lot of reading (or writing for that matter) so I don’t have a lot today: Michael Bane has an interesting article this morning on his blog about Gov. Hickenstupid in Colorado and the recent recall of two anti-gun senators.

This is phenomenal. Even though I think bump firing is a waste of time, and an even bigger waste of money and precious ammo, I support your right to bump fire away until your heart is content. This belt fed Slide Fire bump rifle does sound like a lot of fun, although expensive to feed.

Local gun shops are dangerous places for your wallet, especially when the guys behind the counter know you well enough to know your taste in guns. This afternoon I stopped in to Carolina Gunrunners in North Raleigh to consign a pistol that I don’t shoot anymore, and we got to talking about the XDs recall and Mike suggested that I should buy a S&W Shield to carry while the XDs is off getting repaired. I’d …

While we were all biting our nails waiting for the poll results for the ouster of two anti-gun Colorado Senators on on Tuesday, something much more sinister was going on in California. A bill was passed by the California legislature and sent to the Governor that will ban the sale of all semi-automatic rifles that have a detachable magazine that holds more than 10rds. What semi-auto rifles are on the market that have a detachable …

TTAG is reporting that Colorado Senate President John Morse is out in Colorado. Thats all for now, as soon as I get more info, I will update! El Paso election results website with the unofficial results as of 10:48PM is showing Morse losing.

Take your state back today! Hit the polls and recall the anti-gun, anti-liberty fools that stripped you of your freedom. Remember, Sen. Morse believes that you are a “sickness on our souls” for being a gun owner. Hit us up on the voicemail line (919-295-6128) and let us know what the polls are like. I’m interested to hear what kind of presence the antis have given all of the money they have received from Bloomberg.

I was recently able to order a couple of M&P 9mm magazines from Midway, and the new magazine followers are just a little different from the M&P magazines that I have purchased in the past. The part of the follower that pushes up on the slide stop appears to have a small bevel on it that is absent on the older followers. When inserting the new magazines into the pistol, the new follower will sometimes …

3 huge pistol recalls in less than a month. First the S&W Shield, then the Springfield XDs, and now the Caracal C Pistols. If I remember correctly, this isn’t the first Caracal recall, but this time they aren’t fixing them. Apparently whatever it is that’s wrong with these pistols cannot be fixed, and Caracal will be refunding the owners their money. Find more on the Caracal website or download this .pdf to see if your …

Here’s your Sunday reading for this week! Exploding Targets: Shooting Aid or a ‘Bomb Kit for Dummies?’ I’m not a huge fan of exploding targets, but I understand why they are fun. In my opinion, calling them a “bomb kit for dummies” is misleading, because setting the charge off with a bullet isn’t practical if you are trying to blow someone up, and coming up with a way to set off one of these without …
