Someone we all know is in attendance here, but I’m not saying who. The giant pig is a nice touch, I think, and no one is more deserving of getting the big pig treatment than John Murtha.

Gun Production Up to 1993 Levels
Rightwingprof has the data up. Looks pretty interesting. Ahab says it’s because of the election. Things were looking bleak for us in 1993. I’m sure a lot of those gun purchases were intended to be buried in back yards in the period where politicians talking to Mr. and Mrs. America about turning them all in.
Strangely enough, I haven’t been in a black rifle buying mood. I really should consider it, because the economy isn’t looking too good, and by the time the threat is really upon us, I might not have the money. Of course, that’s gambling that they won’t make us turn them in this time. The real danger of an Obama presidency is that he is naive about this issue, and about life in the country outside of Chicago. Hillary has felt the sting of the gun vote before. Obama has not. To some degree, that makes Obama the bigger threat to the second amendment.
More MagPul SHOT Coverage
Looks like a three part series covering their Masada, The folding SMG, and their PDW:

Neat
More Funny
I have no idea who it is that’s doing this VPC blog, but they need to keep it up, and come to the Second Amendment Blog Bash, so I can buy them a beer. It’s top notch satire.
Red’s Trading Post Trial is Tuesday
This Tuesday, Red’s Trading Post will have its day in federal court to challenge the ATF’s revocation of their federal firearms license. I wish him luck in his case. Hopefully, he won’t need it, given ATF’s track record in court.
Southern California Mass Shooting
Eight people shot in #1 Brady Ranked southern California. Hard to say if this one was another loon, or just a gang conflict gone horribly awry. Doesn’t really matter too much. California’s strict gun laws failed to protect these people in either instance.
Bring me a beer …
… or, you know, I’ll shoot ya! It’s amazing what these people think about us.

Preemption and Activism at Work
Looks like a proposed ban on concealed carry in Lancaster County Parks is no more.
