Will you be ready when you hear something go “bump” in the night? All right, so you like to shoot. You’ve got a gun. And you keep it somewhere in your house because someday you may need to defend your loved ones when something goes “bump” in the night. But do you truly know what…
Would it be weird if I bought a gun just because I love the name? Faxon Firearms has taken the next logical step for a manufacturer of quality rifle and pistol parts: They’ve created and are now selling firearms of their own. Their debut? Two brand-new 9mm semi-automatic handguns with names so badass I’m tempted…
Did you know that every time you share a pro-gun meme, Nancy Pelosi gets heartburn? Memes are essentially the bumper stickers of the Internet, only better, because they don’t leave a sticky outline that you can spend hours trying to scrape off with your fingernail. They may be little more than an image and a…
As long-time GGD readers no doubt remember, last year Dick’s head Ed Stack spewed some goo about how Dick’s target market didn’t need to buy legal guns in a legal way anymore. Some commentators cheered—more about the Dick’s boosters soon—but others pointed out that this Dick’s move might be seen as biting the hand that…
I get the feeling that suppressors are about to get a little more illegal-er. Last Friday, some skidmark decided to shoot up his workplace, and he did it using a suppressor. It’s only been a couple of days since, but already the anti-gunners are (pardon the pun) up in arms about the fact that it’s…
I feel like this election cycle’s crop of anti-gunners isn’t trying very hard. Here’s my “modest proposal” to help them kick it up a notch. The run-up to the 2020 presidential election is well underway, and already, I couldn’t possibly be more bored. It’s not that the current crop of anti-gunners–Booker, Warren, Biden, et al–aren’t…
I recently (as in, it’s still mounted to my test bed AR) spent three weeks with the new Holosun circle red dot optic, and I couldn’t be more pleased… A QUICK UNBOXING The Holosun circle red dot optic arrived in a very nice foam-fitted hard plastic box. The packaging indicates to me that they care…
Are you on the lookout for an everyday carry knife that’s tactical and practical? Whether you’re looking to add an edged weapon to your everyday carry (EDC) rig, or you just want to have a knife that will always be handy for whatever everyday task, you may find that Bear & Son Cutlery’s brand-new Bear…
This isn’t grassroots, but it is definitely something you can use to make grass grow… Ah, springtime, when the farmers of the world get the soil ready for crops by spreading the “common sense gun control” they collected from the floors of the barn all winter. It’s interesting to note that although the mainstream media…
He’s the gift that just keeps on giving…like herpes. Ah, good ol’ Sideshow Joe Biden: Between his folksy, aw-shucks schtick, his creepy-uncle behavior with the ladies, and his complete cluelessness about anything involving gunpowder, he’s been a real boon for sarcastic gun writers. Not so much for actual gun rights, I’m afraid, but up until…
Hint: It does not involve arguing on the Internet. That’s just for fun. A few days ago, I wrote a post about the six types of anti-gunners and how to spot them. One commenter–whom I’m not picking on, because he has a solid point–remarked that attempting to educate or inform an anti-gunner is generally a…
This whole thing will be a lot funnier if you read it to yourself in David Attenborough’s voice, but Gordon Ramsay’s will work okay too. The taxonomy of anti-gunners is fascinating, and unlike some other fauna they’re not difficult to observe in their natural environment. Venture carefully through the doors of your local small-batch, farm-to-table,…
