North Carolina House Bill 17 was filed today. This bill is being called the “Gun permits/restaurants & confidentiality” bill. First and foremost, this will addresses the draconian NC concealed carry law that forbids permit holders from carrying firearms in restaurants that serve alcohol. The rest of the bill covers confidentiality concerning pistol permits in NC, basically making it so the travesty that happened in NY with the newspaper posting a map of legal gun owners …

Sorry guys, I was updating some things on the site, and it appears that I broke the calendar. It’s there, but… its blank. I’ll get it fixed ASAP, stand by.

The below picture has been floating around Facebook for the last 24 hours or so. This, friends, is the type of thing we need to do. We need to be vocal to our representatives in congress, but we also need to be stewards of the second amendment. There are many people who are not opposed to gun ownership, who just don’t know enough to know what they don’t know. I’m not one to hide the …

If you have been reading Triangle Tactical for any length of time, you probably know that I’m very particular when it comes to pistols for concealed carry. Since I began carrying several years ago, all I’ve wanted was a small, singlestack, 9mm pistol, with no external safety, and a decent trigger.

I’ve used Kydex brand plastic in the past, but recently started using Boltaron brand due to the lesser cost. I purchase the plastic from knifekits.com. First things first, to make these, you need something to mold the kydex around. I’ve actually found an …

This video is from SHOT show last week. I hope these catch on, and I hope this guy makes enough money on it to quit his job and spend the rest of his life sipping pina coladas on a beach somewhere warm.

3-gun is one of the fastest growing shooting sports, and for good reason: its a LOT of fun! Especially here in Eastern NC, we have a lot of options when it comes to 3-gun, with more being added every year. I’d bet that most people interested in 3-gun probably have a rifle, shotgun, and pistol suitable for getting started in the game, but most of them probably don’t have the rest of the gear needed, …

This afternoon a man was reportedly shot in the hand at the gun clearing station at the Dixie Gun Show in Raleigh. The specifics on the situation are changing by the minute, with each news organization giving a different account of what happened. What is clear, is that someone had a loaded pistol inside the area where it is not allowed to have a loaded gun. What happened after that is still sketchy at this …
