Quote of the Day: Gun Owners Don’t Make Active Shooter Situations Worse

Sat, 11/28/2015 - 08:00

“For the pacifistic anti-gun dumb asses on the internet who always crop up in the aftermath of any violent event, bitching about imaginary crossfires, or how fighting back would just make things worse. Just shut up already. You’re children, with a child’s grasp of the subject. When people are being mass butchered, barring tossing hand grenades at the bad guy, it is pretty damned hard to make it worse.” – Larry Correia in My Thoughts on Paris [at monsterhunternation.com]

First Tactical is a “new” tactical clothing company that is making some really neat stuff. We’ve got T&E samples with just about every TTAG writer right now and hope to have some reviews for you soon, but they aren’t waiting for that to start rolling out even more products. FT is slashing their prices over the Black Friday weekend on their most popular items, including my personal favorite their Tactix backpack. It’s definitely worth a look.

.50-Caliber Desert Eagle Vs. a Frozen Turkey

Thu, 11/26/2015 - 20:00

I don’t like turkey much. But I don’t dislike it enough to shoot it with a Desert Eagle. And as a Jew, I always hate to see food go to waste. Still, ’tis the season to shoot stuff and BulletSafe’s point is well made: don’t wear a frozen turkey, pumpkin pie or jug of cider for defense against a maniac shooting a gun designed to pierce a car’s engine block. I wonder if a frozen turkey would stop a .22 or a .45-caliber round? Frozen turkeys are on sale after Thanksgiving, right?
