Funny Video of Gun Training

This Youtube clip is a grin.  Indoor shooting of a gun by an Arab at an indoor shooting range does not work out so well.  This has to be his first time shooting, and it is obvious he is not holding the gun tight enough.

Does not end in tragedy, and there is not any blood or guts, nor is there any swearing.  Pretty much  rated G.

People like this scare me to be around at the shooting range.  This is why I like to shoot on my own.

The Basics of Safety with Shotguns

It is very important that all guns be handled in a safe manner.  Firearms are designed to kill, and are a good tool for doing so.  Normally this is for sport, but also can be used for self defense and sport such as target shooting.

Shotguns can be fun when used for shooting clay targets in the air.  Doing this safely is very important so that we do not hurt ourselves or our fellow sportsmen.  Knowing and understanding the particular firearm is very important, whether it be a pistol, rifle, or shotgun.

I found an interesting video about basic shotgun safety for clay shooting for a place called Rock Creek.

The video is very well done and easy to understand and comprehend.  The instruction is very clear and concise, being very easy to follow.

The same general themes from this shotgun video can be followed for other firearms.  Know how the safety operates, know how to check the chamber for a loaded shell, and keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction.  Help prevent accidents and tragedies by following proper safety activities.

I Like Guns Music Video

I gotta hand it to Steve Lee.  He has a great song and music video called “I like Guns.”

The song is sort of a country tune, but it is an original, and very funny.

The video is very funny, lots of good visuals and of course, lots of guns.  Pistols, long guns, automatic guns, military guns, etc.

Enjoy!

Book Review- One Second After by Bill Forstchen

I recently read a very interesting and thought-provoking book by author Bill Forstchen titled One Second After.  This book is a well-studied scenario of what might happen in the event of an EMP (electromagentic pulse) attack on the United States.

A big part of the book is the implementation of martial law.  This concept is very abstract to most of us modern Americans, but it basically means that normal civil laws are suspended in favor of military control in circumstances of civil emergencies or unrest.  One Second After demonstrates that survival of individuals and society are dependent upon a well armed population.

Massive shutdowns of society will have tragic effects on the population.  Our dependence on basic food, medicine and electricity is extremely high, and the loss of these systems would set the country back 150 years in time.

Education and knowledge are the best way to understand our world and be prepared for challenges to come.  This novel is a great way to begin or expand your understanding of local and national emergencies where the government may not be able to help its’ citizens.

Having guns and knowing how to use them can save your life in everyday situations, as well as national emergencies.  They can be used for providing food and defense, and we must be sure to make sure these rights are preserved.

I highly recommend this book.  It is an easy read, and moves along very well.

Federal Firearms License

One way to save on firearms is to get an FFL license.  As a Federally Licensed Firearms Dealer, you can purchase and sell firearms from other dealers, wholesaler warehouses, and the manufactures while paying bargain prices.

You can turn this into a small business, or use it to increase your collection at a reasonable price.  Start buying and selling on the internet, gun shows, or for friends.  Or get deals on firearms and increase your collection with the same capital investment.

The current cast of characters in Washington would love to threaten our gun rights which could change the FFL process.  You might want to get in while the current set of laws are known and understood.  A sudden rush of FFL license applications would occur if things looked like they were about to change because of new legislation.

Changes in gun laws might also increase the need for Federal Firearms License holders to handle transactions between parties and monitor of the sale of firearms.  Gaining your FFL license might be a good investment for a number of reasons.
