9TH CIRCUIT MAG BAN RULING IGNORES HELLER
The second-class treatment of Second Amendment rights continues. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Duncan v.

The Ninth Circuit ignores historical context, …
Senator Grassley Blocks Gun Control on Senate Floor
On December 2, U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) attempted and failed to pass H.R. 8, the dangerously flawed, so-called “universal” background check bill. As you may recall, Nancy Pelosi and her anti-gun allies in the U.S. House passed this misguided legislation earlier this year. H.R. 8 would do nothing to prevent …
Pennsylvania: Governor Tom Wolf Vetoes Constitutional Carry
Anti-gun Democrat Governor Tom Wolf kept his promise and vetoed Senate Bill 565 on Thursday. The bill would have ensured that citizens are able to exercise their right to self-defense without government red tape or delays.

In the latest instance of Hollywood elites lecturing the rest of us, “The View” co-host Joy Behar just advocated for “tweaking” the Second Amendments because the Founding Fathers didn’t have AR-15s. “When the Founding Fathers were busy with the amendments, the First and Second Amendments did not have AR-15s in …

Rifleman Q&A: 19th-Century German Revolver?
Q. I recently inherited a big single-action German revolver of some sort, but I cannot find any information on it. Can you identify it for me or tell me where I can find out more about it? Also, it seems like .44 S&W Russian cartridges will fit in the chambers. Can I shoot …

Ninth Circuit Salvages CA Magazine Ban
Earlier this week, the Ninth Circuit upheld California’s ban against “large capacity magazines.” This decision reverses previous rulings at both the district and circuit court levels concluding the ban was unconstitutional. NRA-ILA backed the challenge California Penal Code §32310, which effectively bans Californians from possessing magazines capable of holding more than ten rounds. Criminals, by definition, ignore the ban …
