Kevin O’Brien There are things everyone ought to know not to do. Like, pull a gun on the cops. Doing that is generally an indicator you’re committing Suicide By Cop, or otherwise are tired of living. No help if it’s a toy gun: by the time the PC Plod figures it out, numerous new orifices in your …
It probably seems unreasonable to select the same wannabe again for a second Assclown of the Ides feature, when there have been so many phonies. After all, Mary Schantag has over 3,000 on the list at POWNetwork.org. But John Giduck has outdone himself this time. WeaponsMan presents: comedy gold, amateur video department. John Giduck Russian …
Bryan Preston at PJ Media notes that, “The Veterans Administration’s scandal … is discrediting the very idea that our government can keep any promise or do anything useful at all.” So what does he find the VA doing? Tweeting about Global Warming. This is what happens when you have 1,000 Brandon Friedman type political hack spokespeople …
Not hard to figure out who’s the villain here, as little actor Vern Troyer, best known for his role in the Austin Powers films, gets the blue-gloves-where-the-sun-don’t-shine treatment from the fine folks at the TSA: For crying out loud, he’s just an actor who played an evil guy. (He’s probably a perfectly nice fellow in person). Does …
That’s what a bunch of New Hampshire National Guard soldiers did to try to keep the comradeship alive after a stint in Iraq in 2004-05. They took up the little-known (in America) Irish team sport of hurling, which if nothing else is great high-intensity PT It’s nice to have a military story to report that …
This is good news, and a long time coming, from lawyer David M. Goldman: Today I received an announcement and verified that you can now process Form 1s online again. For those with a Gun Trust, you can now process these electronically again. Still no word on when Form 4s will be available to process …
Robert Jesse, MD, too hip to have a flag in his official photo. There are finally some consequences, apart from the lost bonus and now months-long paid vacation of the head of the Phoenix VAMC, whose bonus-grubbing killed somewhere between 40 and 100 veterans. Two VA satraps voluntarily stepped down, and VA trickled the announcement out during the traditional …
And they found it has a “corrosive culture.” Gee, ya think? Basically, the report written by the President’s designated fix-it guy, not a manager but a political operative, says all the same stuff about the VA that veterans have been saying for years, while the White House and VA management have been singing, “La la …
Here’s a true piece of submachine gun history: a German MP.18–1 submachine gun, a very early, first-generation, Bergmann-built Hugo Schmeisser design. Schmeisser was the son of designer Louis Schmeisser, who also worked at Bergmann and created the early Bergmann auto pistols. Hugo is one of the true greats of 20th Century weapons design in his …
You know that old Simon and Garfunkel song that starts off, “Slow down, you move too fast”? Our objective for today is to make sure that nobody has any cause that song to us. We’re going to move slow. Were going to do very, very little. We’re gonna get honked at by snails and turtles (and …
