I am a new gun owner, so I am behind the power curve in equipping myself with guns, ammunition and the support material necessary to stay in the personal-protection arena for the foreseeable future. After seeing the collections of equipment some of my friends (who have been into guns and …

What happens when the government limits the right to keep and bear arms to those who “need” it? If the rhetoric of those who favor stricter gun control is to be believed, the answer to this question is that all-knowing and exceedingly wise local bureaucrats are able to benevolently look …
