Fella's;
And while we're mentioning the good guys of S.F., I'll throw another name into the discussion. Charles Stross, author of "The Family Trade", first of a trilogy. The second is "The Hidden Family", followed by, "The Clan Corporate".
Stross is also a member of the greater British conglomeration, being born in Leeds & now residing in Scotland. However, his characters certainly seem to embrace firearms & the RKBA philosophy with enthusiasm. He also seems to be writing, if not living, proof that the state educational system failed miserably with it's indoctrination of socialist ideals.
