The great ammo shortage that began last year will likely continue at least into early 2022, or perhaps even later. Shelves at firearm retailers have largely remained empty, and ammunition continues to sell out as fast as it comes in. It isn’t uncommon to see customers lined up at large retailers and even trekking to remote gun shops in the hopes of finding any ammunition. Increasingly, the lines for ammunition have become to resemble holiday shopping for that must-have toy of the season. The situation is not any better online, where retailers also quickly sell out of their stock. In...

“The AK-47 was only used by the Soviet Red Army during the conflict, but it was not issued in the Hungarian People’s Army, so if a revolutionist got one it can only mean that he/she acquired it from a killed/surrendered Soviet soldier,” explained Máté Balogh, museum educator at the Hadtörténeti Múzeum (Military Museum) in Budapest. As soon as actual fighting broke out the Hungarian rebels utilized whatever weapons they could find and/or capture. Commonly captured weapons included the ubiquitous Mosin Nagant rifles, which were still the primary weapon of the distrusted Hungarian military, as well as PPSh-41 submachine guns, the...

Murphy has also called for a ban on all .50 caliber firearms and he would require that anyone moving to New Jersey to register their firearms. The governor also called for a bill...

The Judge’s primary pistol cartridge is the .45 Colt, a cartridge that has enjoyed popularity since its introduction in the early 1870s. The cartridge served as the standard U.S. military handgun cartridge for nearly 15 and was originally a black powered cartridge, though modern loadings use smokeless powder propellant. Likewise, the .410 shotshell came to life in the 1870s, and despite its old age is still regarded as a lighter, more manageable shotshell, particularly for new or smaller shooters. The shell’s relatively small diameter lends itself well to rifles designed for pest control or as military survival rifles — or...

To legally possess one, at the very least, you’ll need to fill out some forms (online or old-fashioned paper ones), get finger-printed at your local police station, pay a $200 tax, and wait for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms to...

It’s wrong on so many levels. Own that your officer made a choice you have to investigate. State that you are complying with state and federal authorities during the investigation. Report that the officer has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation. And then STOP talking. Leave the podium if you have to. Whatever you do, don’t fumble a narrative and tell people the officer ‘accidentally’ reached for a duty weapon and grabbed a taser instead.

They are dishonestly attacking the Georgia legislation as a throwback to the Jim Crow era, while simultaneously assailing the Senate filibuster as “racist” as well. Those are two vital elements of the grand plan to ram the federal election-takeover legislation, HR 1, the euphemistically titled “For the People Act,” through Congress. The true intent of the legislation—and the road map to get it to Biden’s desk—is to weaken election security and to cement liberals’ hold on power for decades.

The third stumble took Biden out and he was completely down on his knees. After recovering, Biden appeared to take a moment to dust off his knee before finally...
