Dean Weingarten has a good find at Ammoland.
Judge Eduardo Ramos, the U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York, has issued an Opinion & Order that a ban on stun guns is constitutional. A New York State law prohibits the private possession of stun guns and tasers; a New York City law prohibits the possession and selling of stun guns. Judge Ramos has ruled these laws do not infringe on rights protected by the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.

There are a thousand political machinations we could discuss, but this one thing interested me as I looked at this photo (I am after all an engineer and logistics aficionado). Ukranian troops are using a wood burning heater in their bunker (at least I think it would be wood burning, with a roll-up stack/flue). At least, I think that’s what it is. It may not be wise to mount that so close to anything. A soldier is cleaning his weapon.
Alabama Sheriffs Association (ASA) director Robert ‘Bobby’ Timmons is standing by his criticism of the Constitutional carry bills set to be debated in the Alabama legislature, even going so far as to say he would support amending the United States Constitution.
Timmons has claimed several times that the Second Amendment was not written to give citizens the right to carry a weapon in a concealed fashion, saying that the amendment was only written to allow citizens to have weapons to defend their homes.
Given his interpretation of the Second Amendment, 1819 News asked Timmons if ASA would support amending the Constitution to limit the Second Amendment to the possession of firearms only for the defense of a person’s home.
“Oh yeah,” Timmons said. “I’d be in favor of that. But, I mean, it would never get passed.”
According to Timmons, the ASA is working with Mom’s Demand Action – which bills itself as a “grassroots movement” that fights for more restrictive gun laws – to fight against Constitutional carry laws that have been introduced into the current session of the Alabama legislature. “Constitutional carry” is a term used to describe legislation that would allow citizens to legally carry handguns without having to purchase a permit from their local Sheriff’s office.
Three bills pre-filed in the Alabama House and Senate would legalize permitless or “Constitutional Carry” in the state. Rep. Andrew Sorell (R) pre-filed House Bill 44 (HB44), along with a coalition of 38 Republicans. The bill would eliminate the need for a person to obtain a concealed carry permit in order to carry a pistol. It would also repeal and revise certain restrictions on the carrying or possession of a firearm in a motor vehicle or on certain property or locations.
Rep. Shane Stringer (R) and Rep. Proncey Robertson (R) pre-filed House Bill 6 (HB6). Sen. Tim Melson filed an identical companion bill in the Senate (SB12). These two bills would also allow for “permitless carry” and would create a process for the return of seized pistols.
All three bills would leave the current concealed carry permitting system in place for Alabamans who want to obtain a license in order to carry concealed in states with CCDW reciprocity with Alabama.
So not only is the Sheriffs association being led by someone who doesn’t believe in the 2A, they are working with a gun control group to kill constitutional carry in Alabama.
It sounds to me like Alabamans have some trash to carry out. This is on y’all. You have work to do. Get it done. And find out who else in the respective Sheriffs departments supports this guy and his agenda. Carry out that trash too.
We had previously discussed the value of traditional Walnut stocks as heirlooms to pass down to your sons. The latest releases have that – a beautiful Benelli for more than $2000.
There are also some very light rifles, carbon fiber stocks combined with carbon fiber barrels – a Weatherby for more than $3700.
There are some less expensive rifles too, e.g., Connecticut Value Arms (CVA) has one for less than $700.
But just my, my, my goodness, these rifles on the whole are so very expensive. Nice walnut and light carbon fiber parts cost a lot of money.
An Oklahoma State Senator filed three bills designed to increase the power wielded by Oklahoma sheriffs, including a bill that empowers sheriffs to arrest federal officers who attempt to confiscate guns.
State Senator Nathan Dahm, R-Broken Arrow, filed the bills on Thursday.
“I’ve heard from numerous sheriffs and constituents across this state who are concerned at the consistent ignoring of our Constitution happening by this rogue regime” Dahm said. “The Second Amendment was never solely about hunting unless you’re referring to hunting tyrants. It was about the people being able to protect themselves against a government that would seek to disarm them.”
Senate Bill 1199 allows sheriffs to arrest federal officers who attempt to confiscate guns in Oklahoma.
Senate Bill 1200 requires federal agents and officers to receive permission from the county sheriff before operating in their county.
Senate Bill 1201 expands a sheriff’s ability to form a posse to include prohibiting agents, employees and officers of the federal government from violating the constitutional rights of the people of their county.
“The full totalitarian leftist takeover of a society has always been predicated on confiscation of firearms,” Dahm said. “Thankfully in Oklahoma we have county sheriffs that would never allow that to take place. But we must do everything possible to help them stand up for our rights and this bill further enables them to do that.”
I told you before this was an expanding and growing movement. This is the strongest manifestation of that movement I’ve seen.
Police chiefs from around the St. Louis area and the state are supporting a new lawsuit seeking to clarify a controversial Missouri gun law.
In affidavits filed in court and in legal briefs filed by nearly 60 police chiefs belonging to either the St. Louis Area Police Chiefs Association or the Missouri Police Chiefs Association, police officials raise questions about Missouri’s new “Second Amendment Preservation Act.”
The chiefs say, “some of the wording and structure of SAPA has inadvertently caused confusion and raised a number of questions that hinder law enforcement’s ability to defend and protect Missouri citizens.”
The move follows multiple failed attempts by police, prosecutors and federal law enforcement officials to get the Missouri Legislature to make changes to the law.

Asked about the potential for changes in the Legislature, Taylor said, “I don’t think there need to be any changes,” adding that he believes the bill was written in a way that both protects the Second Amendment and allows law enforcement to do their job.
In a statement provided in response to questions from the Post-Dispatch Monday, the two associations stressed that the intent was not to overturn the law but to “ensure that law enforcement return to operating and functioning as it always has. The vague language contained within the law has caused confusion and solicited varying legal opinions which has resulted in unintended operational consequences.”
“Unintended operational consequences.” They want clarification that they can still eat doughnuts with their bestest buddies and partners in stuff, the FedGov.
Here is the clarification they should get. “State law now stipulates that you arrest and charge all agents of the FedGov who enforce gun control laws of any kind.”
Suck it up, pink panty boys. This is an evolution that must occur. It’s inevitable. It’s going to happen. These are just the beginning stages. Decide which side you’re on.
LodeStar integrated both a fingerprint reader and a near-field communication chip activated by a phone app, plus a PIN pad. The gun can be authorized for more than one user.
The fingerprint reader unlocks the gun in microseconds, but since it may not work when wet or in other adverse conditions, the PIN pad is there as a backup. LodeStar did not demonstrate the near-field communication signal, but it would act as a secondary backup, enabling the gun as quickly as users can open the app on their phones.
It sounds like the Babylon Bee, but it’s a serious article. Or sort of.
You can’t make this stuff up. “Hold on there froggy – it’s raining and I dropped my guns, can you give me a second to access my iPhone?”
(Natural News) The group Save Us Now (SUN), based out of the United Kingdom, has compiled a list of all the studies that demonstrate the lethality of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines.”
It turns out that more than 1,000 studies published in scientific journals show that Fauci Flu jabs are dangerous and ineffective at preventing disease and saving lives. Basically everything the world is being told about how great they supposedly are is a lie.
“The ‘safe and effective’ false propaganda, put out by public officials who now are continuing to push this vaccine, is a clear breach of duty,” SUN reports.
But you knew that anyway if you read these pages. Still, there is enough data in publications that it leaves the guilty without excuse.
