Top 5 Dangerous Game Cartridges
I am often asked by hunters who are planning their first dangerous game hunt—whether it be in Alaska, Australia or Africa—which is the right dangerous game cartridge for them. While the answer to that question may be subjective, and could easily be tailored to both the shooter and the game animal being …
Advocacy Isn’t Science
Everytown for Gun Safety produced a report that received favorable coverage on CNN and in The Hill without so much as a basic due-diligence level of questioning. True journalism has been replaced with activism in many newsrooms, so allow us to present a basic response to this new Everytown analysis. The NRA, very obviously, …
Two-Faced
We are all familiar with the idea that lies can grow. It is, however, doubtful any of us have ever told a fib that grew as big as the Left’s lie about America’s gun-owning public. Simply stated, this lie claims that all of America’s armed citizens are to blame for …

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. Bonta ruled en banc that California’s ban on standard capacity magazines does not violate the Second Amendment, overturning a lower court decision that held the ban was unconstitutional. The Ninth Circuit ignores historical context, …
Second Amendment Censorship
When White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki called the Biden administration’s desire for speech restrictions from Big Tech “our asks” last July, tremors shook the foundation of the First Amendment so hard they reverberated all the way to the Second. Gun owners are already acutely aware that Facebook, Twitter and …
Brady Campaign v. Armslist Redux: Court Again Rejects Liability Claim
This month, a federal district court in Wisconsin dismissed a lawsuit against Armslist, the operator of an online marketplace for firearms, arising out of its role in allegedly facilitating or enabling the sale of a handgun that was later used by a prohibited person in a crime.

That’s Not How Research Works
The NRA calling research papers “anti-gun” may sometimes come across as dismissive or reflexive, or both. Some researchers work to keep their papers sterile, no matter their findings. Others grant themselves leeway to be more bombastic, particularly when it comes to developing theories that explain their findings. Researchers from the …
