    Uvalde Shooting Spotlights Daniel Defense

    According to the CNN article here, Daniel Defense is looking at a lot of questions, especially regarding its advertising practices. Apparently, some of their ads are considered provocative (I have not seen them and the CNN article link is broken). But what caught my eye was the below...

    Ammo Prices: What's the new normal?

    I've been visiting this site for a while keeping tabs on pricing trends as I hope to restock at the best price: https://ammopricesnow.com They do not share their search algorithms so hard to say what type, quantity, and brand of ammo their data reflects, but their graphs seem to be most...

    Bloomberg Magazine: Gun Control is Dead

    Surprisingly balanced article: Why Gun Control is Dead On the basis of declining crime rates and increasing private gun ownership, the article posits that the gun-control efforts to basically wage a culture war have resulted in a stale argument for attracting new supporters. Though I'm not...

    CNN article: AWB vs Handgun homicide rates

    Interesting article. Why new laws could miss America's bigger gun problem While far from objective, it is interesting to see a major media outlet actually acknowledge that an AWB would likely not significantly cut into the gun-related homicide rate: While not actually stating advocacy for...

    Semi-auto Fit

    I recently took the AZ CCW course & the instructor sent out some info regarding how to select a handgun. As I read through it, I realized that none of my handguns met the 'fit' criteria he mentioned like how far fingers should wrap around the grip. So, question: When evaluating a semi-auto...
