We’ve all heard that amusingly hypocritical line, “Lay in a big supply before the hoarders get it all!” Indeed, we shooters all lived through that in 2008 and for a good time after. People who feared the Obama administration would make good on the new President’s previously declared wishes to ban [...]

With the shooting death of Trayvon Martin by a neighborhood watch volunteer who was legally carrying a 9-mm handgun, the familiar wail has arisen from our cultural and media elite: America has too many guns! “Open carry” and “concealed carry” laws should be repealed. Florida’s “Stand-your-ground” law, replicated in two dozen states, threatens to turn [...] S. 2213, officially titled the Respecting States’ Rights and Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, treats concealed carry as a RIGHT belonging to the people – not as a privilege granted by the government. “Rather than establish a national standard, our bill will ensure that law-abiding citizens are able to carry concealed firearms while [...] Republicans leaders are saying the fatal shooting of an unarmed Florida teen is a tragedy but remain supportive of the “Stand Your Ground” law the state passed in 2005 and say the legislation doesn’t apply to the case. Former GOP Gov.

Gun shop owners around the nation told FoxNews.com that sales, brisk ever since President Obama was elected, have spiked upward in recent months. And manufacturers are having so much trouble keeping up with the [...] Kansas Senator Jerry Moran’s newly-introduced legislation to protect Second Amendment rights from a proposed United Nations small arms treaty is an idea that needs to be passed quickly, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today. Sen. Moran’s proposed Second Amendment Sovereignty Act, S. 2205, is similar [...] Can the president kill an American simply because the person is dangerous and his arrest would be impractical?
