The Shooters Hangout

“We are currently mired in a frantic debate about the rights of gun owners. One example should suffice to prove that the debate has become hysterical: Second Amendment supporters, one prominent but less than articulate member of Congress alleges, have become “enablers of mass murder.” Special animus has been directed against so-called assault rifles. These […]

“An epidemic of stabbings and acid attacks in London has gotten so bad that London mayor Sadiq Khan is announcing broad new “knife control” policies designed to keep these weapons of war out of the hands of Londoners looking to cause others harm. The “tough, immediate” measures involve an incredible police crackdown, a ban on […]

“I’m going to risk seeming unreasonable for a moment. You see, as we deal with this current round of the gun debate, we slowly see less of the outright vitriol that’s normal in the aftermath of a mass tragedy like Parkland. It’s taken longer to get to this point than normal, but what do you […]

“London, lauded by the Left for its strict gun laws and embrace of multiculturalism, is not the haven it’s cracked up to be. In February, the U.K. capital outpaced New York City’s murder rate for the first time in modern history as London experienced a surge in knife attacks. Both cities have roughly the same […]

“At the top of the leftist list of awesome things to ban sits the scary black rifle. Translated for people who know what they’re talking about: AR-15s. Lefties believe the AR was designed solely for shooting up elementary schools and giving its shooter a bad case of the PTSD, and thus shouldn’t be for sale […]

“There’s a perception being propagated by the media right now that young people are rabidly anti-gun. That’s why they put high school kids on the news every night, intent on telling us what to think and what to believe. However, it seems that millennials, for all the guff they get from people like yours truly, […]

“I think we need to stop and reflect on this story before the media buries it. A shooter opened fire at Great Mills High School in Maryland but he was cut short by an armed security officer. He managed to injure two people before he was “engaged,” according to the sheriff, and quickly neutralized. Of […]

“Since 1993, the United States has seen a drop in the rate of homicides and other violence involving guns, according to two new studies released Tuesday. Using government data, analysts saw a steep drop for violence in the 1990s, they saw more modest drops in crime rates since 2000. “Firearm-related homicides dropped from 18,253 homicides […]

“The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has seen a stunning 1,200% increase in youth membership and donations since the tragic South Florida school shooting on February 14. In reaction to the calls to raise the age limit on ownership of certain guns subsequent to the school shooting, SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb […]

“There is no denying that the AR-15 — an open-source, modular weapon platform that’s the fruit of many tens of billions of private and public dollars in small arms research and almost six decades of innovation — is the most easy to use and one of the most lethal guns available to civilians. Those of […]
