Just the fact that our government even proposed this is horrifying.  Rand Paul told the world and exposed the cards they tried to play.  Thanks, Rand.  Maybe you gave us another month or year before the FEMA camps and Gitmo.

Hi folks. We are up to 94 prizes for our fundraiser sweepstakes. I am going to include a complete list below. I’d like to announce the addition of several target stands, from Targetmeister. They make a very nice product. I own one of them myself.

We still have a couple of other deals we need to iron out, which should push us over 100 prizes. We are offering more firearms in this fundraiser than in any previous effort.

I would like to thank again everyone who has already participated and urge those that haven’t to get in on it. The sweepstakes ends on 16 December.

How to Customize Your Glock on eBay

So sometimes in the process of signing books for customers, I mess up.  I can’t send these books to customers, so I put them in a pile.  Over the next few weeks, I’ll be selling these flubbed books on eBay.  Go to this eBay Listing to see the first one.  Bookmark my Az-Morgan eBay Store to see the others come up. ]]> http://glocktips.com/discounted-books-on-ebay-customize-your-glock/feed/ 0 http://glocktips.com/enough-gun-in-norway-svalbard-seed-bank/ http://glocktips.com/enough-gun-in-norway-svalbard-seed-bank/#comments Wed, 02 Mar 2011 04:39:59 +0000 morgan http://glocktips.com/?p=760 A friend of a friend is visiting the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, an awesome facility that just might save all of our skins someday, and he took this photo:

Pincus training Women in New York

I think this is kinda cool.  Honoring the classic ‘cowboy’ sidearm.  Killed more bad guys than any other gun, I bet.

A little more than a month after United States Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was shot in the head in her home state of Arizona, state lawmakers in Phoenix are set to pass a new gun law—though it’s probably not the kind of gun law you would expect.

Sponsored by 43 of the 90 members of the Arizona legislature, the new bill seeks to make the Colt single-action Army revolver the “official state firearm” of Arizona. In January, lawmakers in Utah moved to make M1911 semi-automatic pistol the official gun of that state.

In a Facebook group advocating for all states to adopt official state guns, the administrator writes, “States have symbols such as flags, birds, dinosaurs, reptiles, insects, flowers, even cookware. None of these symbols would have become necessary without guns and the freedoms they helped our forefathers obtain.”

The gun used to shoot Giffords and kill six others was a Glock 19, the sales of which skyrocketed in Arizona in the days after the Giffords’s attack.

These colors don't run.

“The land of the free and the home of the brave.”  Does that apply only to war?  Where will fear of our fellow Americans get us?  We don’t live in Sweden or Japan, or even Italy where most every citizen shares a common heritage and traditions and beliefs.  What makes America great is that we are all Americans.  And by and large we are mostly good people.

Now, the government, that’s a slightly different story.
