    Dogs and NC law...

    Yeah, if you have the time. Be very careful of cracker barrel interpretation of NC law. It is never what it seems to be. Combine written ambiguity with sporadic enforcement and good old fashioned corruption and you end up with an intolerable situation for law abiding citizens. Be wary of NC...

    How do you resist the siren call of a new gun?

    Don't resist; give in . . . . but channel the drive. Walk over to your pile of bills and pick out the biggest honker you can find. Then clearly identify the your biggest object of lust. Link the two together. When you've paid off the biggest honker treat yourself to the purchase of <insert...

    Will firearms disappear in America?

    I don't pay any more attention to polls (particularly gun polls) than I do to Wikipedia articles. Too many unknowns about either to trust the data.

    State authorities asking gun owners to allow guns to be test fired.

    The trick, my dear Sherlock, is to get them to willingly put the collar around their own necks.

    Car Carry Through South Carolina

    Watch out for NC. Where SC requires a handgun to be in a closed container such as a glove compartment, NC has the exact opposite requirement. You can have a loaded handgun in the passenger compartment as long as it is in plain view such as on the seat or dash. And don't assume for a minute...

    How to handle "hotel security" knocking on door?

    In dealing with noise in a hotel the FIRST action is a call from the desk. The second step is security at the door. Security more than likely will NOT have a photo ID. Your only assurance is a call to the desk and / or a previous call from the desk. BTW, a chain or bar will not hinder an...

    Girlfriend is hesitant about going to the shooting range...

    Consider this. Those unfamiliar with firearms don't really know what they are. Their education consists of TV and movies. In the past when I've run into people who are afraid to even touch a firearm I've arranged a cleaning session while they are around. A firearm may look formidable sitting...

    Yet Another Statistic: Abused Woman + Restraining Order - CCW = Dead Woman

    True statement but with a Miranda statement the State of Illinois is on record as saying "we will not protect you; you are responsible for protecting yourself; and we will see to it you can not protect yourself." Illinois is just like other states. Things will change when people get fed up.

    Yet Another Statistic: Abused Woman + Restraining Order - CCW = Dead Woman

    I personally think states should require a "Miranda" statement each time RO is issued. The statement would tell the beneficiary of a RO that it is not bullet proof. It will not protect them from the perp. The police are not under obligation to protect them from the perp. Personal protection...

    North Carolina's onerous "pistol purchase permit" requirement

    Go find another windmill to charge. NC has ossified government and simply will not change without serious public outrage. Critical mass has yet to be achieved. Get a CCH permit as it will overcome a number of risk inherent in NC law. Otherwise, suck it up, apply for 3 handgun permits, pick...
