Guns 'n' Freedom

The Iowa House has just voted to reverse a law that made it illegal to use or possess a gun silencer or suppressor.  The bill passed 82 – 16 and would allow gun owners across the state to make use of the hearing-saving devices that many have called a much needed tool to prevent hearing loss in regular shooters. According to RadioIowa.com, Representative Matt Windschitl, a Republican from Missouri Valley who is a gun smith, calls them “suppressors” and he said they can help preserve the hearing of gun owners who regularly fire off rounds at gun ranges. “This is… Continue Reading…

Almost 18 months after Mark Ktytor stopped a potential mass shooting by gunning down the suspect he still doesn’t have his gun back. The shooting took place on September 9th, 2012 when suspected murderer, William Allabaugh of Plymouth Pennsylvania began shooting at innocent bystanders because he was upset for getting kicked out of a bar.

At least one California gun shop has learned the hard way that people who support the 2nd amendment are some of the most organized, outspoken, and grassroots members of society.  And when something threatens their rights, they don’t just sit back and watch it happen.

As soon the so called… Continue Reading…

Gunssavelives reported on this story today and we thought it would be a great reminder of the “duty to retreat” that gun control activists love to promote.

We just reported on the recent push by Moms Demand Action and Mayor Against Illegal Guns to force Facebook to take down pages that promote guns and allow for users to discuss firearm transactions. But this push would have also effected all gun related pages on Facebook, many of which merely support the 2nd amendment and discuss gun related stories. Well after so much outrage over this potential decision, Facebook has put out a press release that suggests they have no plans on banning gun related pages at all.  In fact, their announcement looks more like a soft approach to… Continue Reading…

Update: Facebook has put out a press release regarding its decision, and it looks like it will not be banning gun related pages at this point. The anti-gun movement has seen some legislative success in states like Connecticut, New York, and California, but over all more states have seen a push for more gun rights in the last year.  And a failure to see any major federal restrictions on firearms and freedom has only angered the anti-gun movement to go after easier targets. Gun control activists are losing momentum after trying to capitalize on the tragic Sandy Hook shootings.  So… Continue Reading…
