Tarheel 3-Gun Challenge

The 2013 Tarheel 3-Gun Challenge starts today! This is the second annual Tarheel 3-Gun Challenge being held in New Hill, NC (just outside of Apex). I had the opportunity to attend the match last year and shoot it with a camera, and I was blown away by the stages.

This smells of propaganda to me. They go through portions of the bill, and only point out the “good” parts, neglecting to tell us that under this bill, “online gun sales” has an …

It’s a Christmas Tree, We Just Hung a Bunch of Ornaments on it.

A friend sent me a link to this article a few minutes ago, and I thought it was an interesting read. On one hand, I like the idea that we may expand some of our rights that have been taken away previously, like selling guns across state lines and whatnot, but on the other hand, I don’t believe we should be compromising our rights.
