Update from Acme Ammo:
The weekend of July 31/Aug 1, we will be appearing at the Kentucky Expo Center in Louisville. The is the same complex as the National Gun Day show, but in the West Hall. The following weekend, we will be appearing in Columbus, OH at the Franklin County Veterans Memorial on Broad St.
We just completed a contract to deliver ammo for a sniper training class. The requirements called for a .308 Winchester round loaded with a 175gr Sierra Match King at a nominal velocity of 2600 fps. This combination was tested and delivered a .820" 9 shot group at 100 yards. It would have been a 10 shot group had the shooter not flinched on the first shot. OK, I'll admit I was also testing .300 Win Mag on the same day and I left my Macho Merit Badge at home. Anyway, as we usually do, we manufactured several thousand additional rounds so our regular customers could sample this very accurate round. This round is available at $41.51/50, $203.77/250 and $405.66/500.
We have also begun to manufacture .41 Magnum rounds. We have two choices available, both 210 grains. One is a normal flat-point target round at $32.08/50. The other is a Speer Gold Dot Hollow Point at $43.40/50. There seems to be two extreme schools of thought on this caliber, one that it's obsolete, the other that it's optimum. We fall in the optimum category. It packs more punch than a .357 Mag without the punishing recoil of the .44 Mag. Another reason is that we've seen a number of S&W revolvers in .41 Mag going for a song because the ammo has been hard to come by. What's not to like?
Last, but not least, we finally have .300 Winchester Magnum available. These rounds are loaded with a 178 grain Hornady A-MAX bullet for optimal accuracy. In testing, this round produced a velocity of 2804 fps with a standard deviation of 14.3 fps. A five shot group measured .644" at 100 yards. This is a round with significant downrange wallop. We have this premium grade ammo priced at $33.96/20 rounds.
Here at Acme we are very value conscious. Normally, we don't plug products here other than our own, but we recently picked up a Thompson/Center Venture rifle to use in developing our .300 Win Mag product. What caught our attention was the $449 price tag and a 1 MOA guarantee. Yes, this rifle did live up to that promise. In addition, it has a user adjustable trigger with no take up. While it doesn't have the crisp clean break of a nicely tuned 1911 trigger, it is firm and distinct....... much to our liking. Check it out; if a plain, blued rifle with a synthetic stock floats your boat, you may like this option.
As always, if you can't make a gun show, our products are available for shipping via UPS ground. The "Brown Truck of Happiness" will bring ammo right to your front door. Just call us at 513-582-2839.
We are currently making plans for business expansion. Watch our website and e-mail for a major announcement from us within the next 60 days.
As always, thanks for your continued business and support.

Why not make your parks alcohol free??
Instead of trying to ban guns ban the alcohol, as it is what seems to have started the confrontation in the first place, as alcoholic beverages inhibit sound judgement, and wisdom. Also banning alcohol in the parks would make the streets safer when the drunks go home.

Two of the officers suffered serious wounds; one officer suffered stab wounds to his back, shoulder and arm and the other suffered stab wounds to his back and arm. The third officer suffered wounds to his hand.

The 2nd Amendment is over 200 years old, and trumps your later day laws.
Let me ask you this what if your brother had say been stabbed to death, would you champion Knife control?, or if he had been beaten to death, would you champion Club control? You are only looking at the method rather than the cause.
Yes people have and will do bad things with guns, but when they can't get a gun they don't turn in to choir boys, they just chose another means.
One example, I'll bring to your attention, Japan has extremely tight gun control, but they have a suicide rate higher than the US of A, so they have no "handgun suicides". So when a gun is used here to kill ones self, it just a means to an end, it does not mean they won't use another method to end their life

UN after both guns, and free speech
From the Washington Times a laundry list, Micro Stamping, Registration of both guns, and ammo, Restrict trading among individuals, reduce violence in the media, including video games, and reeducation of citizens.
To quote the article: The Obama administration strongly supports the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty and no doubt will use the process to push for gun-control regulations that it can't get through Congress otherwise.
Sorta of sounds a bit like the scene at the Drive In in Red Dawn, so is it just smoke, and mirrors?
Or is there a bit of fire to go with it?

She is even in England seeing the model of gun control
Of course if you disarm the law abiding, the BG's don't really need guns, they can use knives, and clubs, or just physical strength, and in addition the UK has made self defense pretty much illegal, so the general population make for a perfect victim pool, a lot like Chicago.
Since even the police don't carry guns, assaults on officers have soared over 7000 in Scotland last year, an officer assaulted every 20 minutes
While here the FBI reports that violent crime has dropped the past 2 years, in England serious injuries from violence has risen 6.6%
Really Rebecca take off the rose colored glasses, and really look around

Back Door Gun Control
It is anticipated that the final treaty will attempt to register all firearms, require micro-stamping, destruction of surplus ammunition on a very set schedule, registration of all firearms and restriction on any transfer of arms including between private individuals and many other restrictions. If the United States is a signatory and this is ratified by the U.S. Senate, this UN treaty would be the law.

For those in the extremist gun lobby and the libertarian right who view the Supreme Court's recent Second Amendment rulings as assault weapons ready to blow holes in America's gun laws, the Seventh Circuit's ruling this week in US vs Skoien.

While I don't condone domestic violence, if it's a misdemeanor, you pay a fine or whatever, and you go on with your life, I know what fellow that never even touched his wife, he kicked a coffee table over, but got a MDV conviction

1911 Question
click to enbiggen
New Springfield Armory 1911-A1.
What would cause the slide to hang up, there is no magazine in the gun, and the slide stop is not engaged, the first and only time I attempted to shoot it, it did not want to go into battery. First thought was, it might be the slide stop. Field stripped the slide does not run smoothly on frame, there does not appear to be any burrs or anything on slide or slide rails. The only change I made was the grips.
So I'm guessing ether the frame or the slide are out of spec? Or they are both within tolerance, but opposite ends of the scale.
Time to send it back to Springfield?
Took it to the dealer today, and he agreed that the slide shouldn't just hang there, so he is shipping it back to Springfield Armory for me.

We could all die from a massive earth fart
While not likely, some scientists think so:
Ryskin published a paper in 2003 titled "Methane-driven oceanic eruptions and mass extinctions" in which he theorized that "mass extinction"can be caused by an extremely fast, explosive release of dissolved methane," an eruption that would release "deep anoxic waters that cause extinctions in the marine realm," with extinctions on land brought about by "explosions and conflagrations that follow the massive release of methane" and by "eruption-triggered floods."

Good advice from Massad
While IDPA is not the same as a gunfight, it helps hone the skills one might need for a gun fight. As Dave Grossman notes little of the training we do prepares us for true human aggression, as everyone knows unless there is an unfortunate accident, everyone is going home. Unless one has access to a private range, they are pretty much stuck just standing still, with gun at the ready on a paper target. IDPA is open to pretty much everyone, and the local clubs welcome new shooters.

Ah Hi-Points
I was helping another Instructor during a class, one of the students had a new Hi-Point 45 Auto, nether the student nor the Instructor could hit the target with it. So the Instructor loaned the student his Glock 22, and, and wow holes began appearing in the targets, but the student continued to lament how great his Hi-Point was, and how he really liked it, and that it was as good as the Glock. New targets were hung, and the Hi-Point blissfully missed them all, back to the Glock, and holes once again appeared in the paper, the student continued to brag how his gun was as good as the Glock, the Instructor took a new track he said "Let me show you how to hit with your gun, You bring the gun back as far as you can and throw it as hard as you can, and you might hit them with it."
Change camera angle to students face wide eyed, and jaw agape

I've said for years when you see a "Gun Control Bill", drop the word gun.
Israeli Security Team Loses Glocks
Article describes "4 Powerful handguns", umm they were Glock 9mm's, powerful in a handgun is more like 44 Magnum or 500 S&W

Ranting about Utah CCP
"The course itself will NOT make you a trained gun fighter."
True, I fully agree
But taking a driving test will not make you Mario Andriette ether.
"In this particular instance I am forced to agree with Peter Hamm, too many issuers are lax in the way they do background checks."
Hmm, Utah uses a background check conducted by the FBI.

But, There are already a whole bunch of laws addressing that!
Firearms in the wrong hands are also a threat to community safety
Solid first steps would be to close the gun show loophole that allows the sale of guns on a cash and carry basis, with no identification required. Add those who commit crime(s) with a gun to the Predatory Offender Registry, and require them to register where they live and when they move, as we now do with sex offenders and other predators. And we should enact an assault weapons ban.
So if we harass, constrain, control, and limit the law abiding citizen, we might some how control those who live outside the law??

NPR debates Chicago gun law changes
Vet shoots and kill intruder, then the anti moans about his father commiting suicide, I'll agree guns are commonly used to commit suicide, but they are far from the reason people commit suicide.
The expense of getting a gun in DC
$500 plus not including the firearm, and no Hi-caps

Is the right to own a gun "of the very essence of a scheme or ordered liberty" and "rooted in the traditions" of our people?
The Second Amendment reads, "A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Do remember the term "well-regulated" in 1776 meant "Trained & Well Equipped"

Its easier to blame guns, that fix the problems
In too many low-income communities of Chicago, the schools are in shambles, quality after-school programs are scarce, well-paying jobs are almost nonexistent, and the family structure is in full crisis. It is an easy notion to disregard, but many of these children are struggling daily to thrive in an environment that fosters failure.

I am (was?) A Gun Owner But:
It is that the lunatic-fringe gun owners, and the weak-kneed politicians who serve them, have now gone too far.
Not only are we right wing extremists, now we are lunatics too

So it's ok for police officers to be in possession of illicitly purchased machine guns ?
The guns, which were destroyed by the city three years ago, were India-made, fully-automatic rifles classified as "machine guns" by the U.S. Treasury Department. The military-style guns were purchased at sharply discounted, tax-exempt prices that relied on false assertions by city police that they would be used for "official duties only, purchased by the department for departmental use only
An investigation by the Times Union revealed the guns changed hands over the years as officers sold them to one another and also to others outside the department.

Meanwhile in Wisconsin
District Attorney say he won't enforce gun laws
But he does seem at odds with the sheriff, and local police chief

The Court Ruled
Then They Voted
Chicago is not going to get any better any time soon, and now they will blame the SCOTUS, instead of their short sighted limp wristing rules.
I call for a boycott on Chicago, since they wish to hamstring the law abiding citizens

Mayor Daly Continues to ignore the facts
As gun sales have skyrocketed since 2005, violent crime has dropped precipitously during the same period.

Only Gangsters and Government will have guns
Why does it seem Mayor Daly is protecting only the thugs?

22 million out of work
1.3 million losing benefits
8 million jobs gone forever
Now the Prez wants to reform immigration, make 11 million illegals legal, and I suppose open the floodgates to millions more, yep we can turn the US of A into a 3rd world world nation in a jiffy.

Chicago has 100,000 gang members?
Guns alone did not cause - and cannot solve - the plague of urban violence

More "Chicken Little" gnashing of beaks:
In the end, no one will be better off in this country if those challenges lead to more people owning or carrying guns. Firearms in homes increase the odds of children getting ahold of them. They lead to accidental deaths. They put otherwise nonviolent people one pull of a trigger away from shooting someone, and perhaps landing themselves in prison.
