Ed Brown 1911 performance magazines: Do it right the first time, and you can give it a lifetime warranty. Ed Brown Products has spent over 50 years building custom 1911-style handguns, and they’ve tested just about everything possible to maximize performance. One thing they’ve learned along the way is that it doesn’t matter how perfectly…
Here are 127 reasons to be thankful in 2020! It’s been a tough year, and it isn’t over yet…but that means that it’s more important than ever to be grateful for the things we have. This year, we here at Freedom’s Lodge (and our sister publication, Guns & Gadgets Daily) are announcing 127 reasons to…
My boss makes a dollar while I make a dime…that’s why I quiz on company time! Remember back when Facebook was actually sort of fun, instead of a hellscape populated entirely by people selling pyramid schemes to each other? I’m personally certain that it was the silly quizzes that made all the difference, and was…
What’s that smell? Infringement! It’s a mistake to think that former Vice President Joe Biden’s radical antigun campaign stops with the banning and confiscation of AR-15-style rifles and high-capacity magazines. The fact is that the Biden/Harris ticket has a multipronged strategy to end the Right to Keep and Bear Arms as we understand it in…
We cannot fill the Capitol Mall with our bodies; let us fill the Internet with our voices. Just a few weeks remain before one of the most critical Presidential elections of all time for the Second Amendment. Now is the time when we gun owners–who ARE the gun lobby–must make our voices heard. Last year,…
From the “Things you knew but couldn’t prove” files… If you’re a hunter or shooter who uses social media, then chances are you’ve suspected for a long time that Facebook and Instagram have a campaign of anti-hunting censorship. Yesterday, Safari Club International (SCI) CEO W. Laird Hamberlin sent a letter to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg…
Why is it that so many proponents of “common-sense gun control” can’t seem to control themselves? A while ago, we ran an article discussing how common it is to hear anti-gun activists accuse pro-Second Amendment activists of wanting to hurt them for their beliefs…and how uncommon it is for anything of the sort to happen….
Remember, Remember on the Third of November… One of the most hilarious aspects of the 2020 Presidential elections is that we Second Amendment supporters get to watch Biden’s campaign claim that they have no intentions of infringing on the 2A even as they gleefully plan to infringe upon the 2A. The National Shooting Sports Foundation…
We live in a time when, every single time a horrific crime is committed with a gun, the media rushes out to blame…well, all of the people who didn’t do it. But why? Of course, nobody’s talking–but I have a few ideas on the matter… The Charitable Explanation The charitable explanation is that it’s just…
Biden and Bloomberg just love to swing…swing states, of course! The 2020 presidential election may be fractious, but the true love between Mike Bloomberg and Joe Biden really ought to be an inspiration to us all in these trying times. We’ve recently learned that Bloomie is on the hunt for a gift for his best…
The NRA Annual Meeting of Members’ rescheduled time and location has been announced! Earlier this year, the National Rifle Association was forced to cancel its Annual Meeting of Members due to COVID-19. Ongoing restrictions on the sizes of gatherings have made what is normally a gala event with 70,000+ members in attendance into a bare-bones…
Here’s just how desperate the anti-gunners are for a mass shooting. Democrat Joe Biden’s disgusting attempt to exploit the ambush of two Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies to push his anti-gun agenda illustrates the intellectual dishonesty of the gun prohibition mindset, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today. An…
