The internet likes gun pictures, right?
This makes me smile.
It is shaped like a brick. It has no safety. It is in a minor caliber. It is everything 1911 owners say they hate.

Moms Demand Myrmidons
Moms Demand Myrmidons
Not against guns for self-defense FOR THEM. --- Breda
@DLoesch WAIT. These moms hate guns but had ARMED SECURITY????????????

In pre-industrial Europe the word "myrmidon" carried many of the same connotations that "minion" does today. Myrmidon later came to mean "hired ruffian" (according to the Oxford English Dictionary) or "a loyal follower, especially one who executes orders without question, protest, or pity - unquestioning followers."

R.I.P.O.F.F.
"Ballistic gel test of the G2 Research R.I.P. "Radically Invasive Projectile" in 9mm."
I'll say I do find the better mousetrap alluring, but in the Guns and Ammo game you are better off not being an early adopter.
Tip of the hat to Rusty Shackleford off Facebook.

Daystate
What did you get to shoot today?
The Daystate CR-X Air Rifle
The gun I shot was in .22 and shooting moving targets (gallery style) at 35 yards was almost boring.
IIRC the scope was a 10x50x 60 Sightron with side focus.
I got to say it was a good day.
Edit: here is an ad for the Caldwell Shooting Gallery.

Act of Valor
Today you can go out and buy Act of Valor on DVD or Blu-ray.
And I suggest you go do so if you want to encourage them to make another movie.
In lieu of my own review, I'll quote the world famous Tam:
I will also link this review of the Blu-ray. I assume it has more special features (I'll check that in the store).
Special Features:
audio commentary
six deleted scenes
introduction to the film by its directors
Seven of the Navy SEALs give brief interviews
“The Making of Act of Valor”
“Real Bullets”
“Real SEALs: Real Tactics”
“Silent Warriors” (heh...)

In lieu of my own review, I'll quote the world famous Tam:
The plot is not Hitchcockian: Some bad guys are going to try and do bad things to America. A bunch of SEALs are attempting to stop them, mostly by shooting them in the face.
I am so used to watching gun handling in movies and thinking "You're Doing It Wrong!" that it was refreshing to see one that made me think "Huh. I'm Doing It Wrong."

Lawyers and Zombies
Joe Barrett host of Trigger Time Sunday nights on 55KRC posted a very interesting observation on Facebook. He warns against carrying Hornady's Zombie Max ammo because it could be used against you in a court of law.
http://www.hornady.com/ammunition/zombiemax
UPDATE: The disclaimer is not on the box. I looked at one today.
I had a listener tell me he carried this ammo in his self defense guns, but heard someone say perhaps he shouldn't due to the "Disclaimer" from Hornady. Having read it, I have to say I wouldn't own it either. It doesn't matter if it really isn't any more effective than something else, THIS ONE comes with the instructions by the manufacturer that it should never be used against a human being, and I am guessing an attorney could make good use of that in a civil trial if nothing else. I hope Greg, David, Bill and/or some of the more experienced trainers will give their two cents on this topic.
Disclaimer: Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is NOT a toy (IT IS LIVE AMMUNITION), but is intended only to be used on…ZOMBIES, also known as the living dead, undead, etc. No human being, plant, animal, vegetable or mineral should ever be shot with Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition. Again, we repeat, Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is for use on ZOMBIES ONLY, and that's not a nickname, phrase or cute way of referring to anybody, place or thing. When we say Zombies, we mean…ZOMBIES!

Hands & Feet
How easy is it to kill a man with your bare hands?
Anecdotal evidence and boxing mechanics are discussed as well, but what is not mentioned is that a stat I vaguely recall that hands and feet cause more deaths than the dreaded evil "Assault Weapons".
"Assault Weapons" i.e. semi-auto rifles would only be a subset of All Rifles in the FBI Uniform Crime Report. In 2010 Rifles where used in 358 murders less than half the number for hands & feet. That trend continues back through the years.
It is a nice little stat to have in your toolbox and pull out next time you hear calls to renew the "Assault Weapons Ban".
It happens more than twice a day, on average. Fists and feet were responsible for 745 murders in 2010, or 5.7 percent of all murders that year, according to FBI statistics. (The data on this have been remarkably stable in recent years. In the five preceding years, the percentage of murders perpetrated by fists or feet fluctuated between 5.6 and 6.1.)

Jeanne Assam talks to Kate Krueger
Jeanne Assam talked last week with Kate Krueger's Talking Guns on Arizona Gun Radio 1260 & 96.1.
Click here to Listen (at 15:00)
Second Hour (JA it mentioned at 18:00)
Special Thanks to Massad Ayoob for facilitating this interview. Mas was one of the first people I though of when I began seeking advocates for Jeanne. It was an honor to meet him in St. Louis.
Kate has an interesting page of guest links, some of whom I met at the NRA Meeting and delivered my 30 second pitch about Assam's book (that you can buy on my side bar).
Specifically:
Deb Ferns of WOMA
Julie G from Team S&W
and Kathy Jackson who runs the Cornered Cat.

Please Vote for Mitt Romney.
Looks to me like there are many gun bloggers that would rather go full wookie than pull the lever for the Massachusetts Android. I can understand this, but I don't think it is a wise move and I would ask then to consider the following.
Here are the top five reasons to vote for Mitt Romney in November.
5. Supreme
4. Court
3. Justice
2. Eric
1. Holder
h/t to Ed Morrissey (who said he got it somewhere else.)
P.S. Can some one explain to me why Mitt's gun control sins are worse than Ronald Regan's ???

For the record My Breda fanboyhood is unwavering even though I was reading Massad Ayoob as a teenager.
But I really did feel like I was shaking after I met him.
