      Massachusetts Carry Permits Renewals - 4 Months

      I recently sent my renewal ~5 months before expiration which looks like it was a smart move. We'll see if the new one actually shows up before the current one expires.

      Virginia anti-gun bill coming back 2024

      2026 with the new governor will be the pivotal year for VA gun rights. I'm not optimistic, but I hope that I'm wrong.

      Ear Protection Alternatives

      Do you have issues wearing regular foam earplugs? If so, are you sure that you're inserting them correctly? There's a proper technique to inserting them correctly. Many people that I see use foam earplugs aren't inserting them into their ears properly.

      Suppressor QD Mount Question

      Look into the "Plan B" style mounting system. It's lightweight, simple, and there is a wide range of compatible muzzle devices from various manufacturers available for the system. https://www.revivaldefense.com/plan-b-rearden-atlas-compatible https://www.reardenmfg.com/

      NYC CCW case is at SCOTUS!

      This particular request for relief from the plaintiffs was regarding NY's new ammo background check and NY taking over the entire NICS background check process (they are now the middleman for NICS checks and the FFLs aren't allowed to contact NICS directly) that recently went into effect. People...

      NYC CCW case is at SCOTUS!

      https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/statement-governor-hochul-supreme-courts-rejection-latest-attempts-undermine-new-yorks-nation "The United States Supreme Court has sided with common sense, denying the application for emergency relief that would have temporarily dismantled New York's...

      NYC CCW case is at SCOTUS!

      I can't say that I'm surprised by that result. It's rare that SCOTUS doesn't wait for a case to play out in the lower courts first, no matter how long it takes...we're at 6+ months now since oral arguments for five separate 2A cases and it's still crickets from the 2nd Circuit.

      NYC CCW case is at SCOTUS!

      I believe that this SCOTUS conference on 10/6 is specifically in response to the plaintiffs in Gazzola v Hochul seeking an immediate stay of NY's new ammo background check and NY's takeover of the NICS background check. I'm not sure how much, if any, of the rest of the case will be addressed by...

      New York State Firearm and Ammo Background Check Fees

      They actually do this at gun shows in neighboring states to go after people from NY who are buying so-called "ghost gun" parts and bringing them back.

      2023 New Wear and Carry Curriculum is released by MSPLD

      All the stupidity aside, it does make me want a video doorbell just a little bit more. I like the idea of being able to "answer" the door without actually having to be anywhere near it.

      2023 New Wear and Carry Curriculum is released by MSPLD

      Agreed, which is why it's kind of surprising that the language that you highlighted exists in the decision. The number of situations where it's applicable to a justifiable defensive shooting is probably infinitesimally small.

      2023 New Wear and Carry Curriculum is released by MSPLD

      An interesting recent case of this situation is the guy in Texas who shot through his closed apartment door at two individuals who were clearly armed (and who he identified as armed via his video doorbell) and attempting kick down the door and enter his apartment.

      Red Dot Stabilization?

      I would be willing to bet that most people using red dots are actually using them incorrectly and are unknowingly focusing on the dot. Without proper training it is way to easy to focus on the bright glowing dot in the window and not on the target. That's why I'm a huge fan of dot occlusion...

      SB1 Bar Owner Clarification

      And all they really did was copy+paste what NY did, and what NJ and CA tried to do, while sprinkling their own special blend of stupidity on top.

      My Experience Conceal Carrying in D.C.

      NY will still be worse, and has been for a while now. At least the MD anti-carry law has the verbiage that you must "knowingly" be in violation. Marylanders can also own fun stuff like standard capacity mags, suppressors, and SBRs. All NFA items are banned in NY except for law enforcement. Even...

      Heritage Going Agency-Only

      This is now the 3rd shooting facility in MD, VA, and WV to close to the public and become agency-only in just the past year. I hope it backfires spectacularly. There are already too few places for civilians to legally shoot.

      Local vendor for "custom" kydex IWB holster

      It might be worth contacting them because for some reason I thought that they don't charge the custom mold fee if you are able to bring them the actual gun, but I could be completely wrong.

      Local vendor for "custom" kydex IWB holster

      MIE Productions is in NOVA and can make custom molds for guns that they don't already support.

      Which Electronic Hearing Protection?

      Wearing electronic muffs over foam ear plugs allows you to hear and talk at normal volume levels, while still getting the full protection of both devices. I like being able to talk to someone at the range without either of us having to yell to hear each other. Electronic muffs are also really...

      Insomnia PSA: zincpoint ammo is bad

      Unfortunately, I'm not surprised. I stay away from any of these types of brands and stick to well known manufacturers with long track records of producing decent ammo. The savings are just not worth the risk.
