Arkansas Attorney General Won’t Let School Arm Teachers

Posted on by

“Arkansas school districts can’t use a little-known state law to employ teachers and staff as guards who can carry guns on campus, the state’s attorney general said Thursday in an opinion that likely ends a district’s plan to arm more than 20 employees when school starts later this year.  The Lake Hamilton School District has been using the same law for years to train a handful of administrators as security guards, but the guns are locked away and not carried by the administrators during the school day.”

Mayor Bloomberg blames Virginia for many of New York’s gun crimes

Posted on by

“New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg blames Virginia and several other southern state’s for the Big Apple’s gun crimes — so now he’s set his Mayors Against Illegal Guns’ sights on the Deep South for a Second Amendment crackdown.  His chief of staff, John Feinblatt, said if states like Virginia only implemented common-sense provisions, then violent crime rates would fall.  Other states faulted by Mr. Feinblatt: South Carolina, for contributing 251 ‘crime guns’ in 2011, he said. And Georgia, Alabama and Texas – all states that allow for online gun sales absent background checks.”

The First Commercial 3D Printed Metal Gun Part

The First Commercial 3D Printed Metal Gun Part

“Neal Brace, founder of Sintercore LLC and a former US Marine infantryman, has developed the world’s first commercially available 3D printed firearm accessory. What sets Sintercore’s component apart from previous 3D printed firearm designs is that it was manufactured using direct metal laser sintering technology, rather than a plastic 3D printer.  To ensure that their product is safe, Sintercore has designed their muzzle brake to be printed in Inconel, a nickel-chromium super alloy that’s traditionally reserved for use in extreme environments like gas turbine blades, supercharger rotors, and F1 and NASCAR exhaust systems.”

Gun company displays largest-caliber rifle ever created with bullets that cost $40 a piece

Posted on by

“If you want to squeeze off a few rounds from a .905-caliber rifle, you’ll need two things: muscles and cash. An Ohio-based gun company has developed the world’s first .905-caliber rifle that – at .905 – is the highest-caliber rifle in the world.  The rifle is the creation of SSK Industries and is essentially a shoulder-mounted cannon, with rounds that look like mini mortar shells. The rifle fires rounds about 2,100 feet per second with roughly 254,000 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. The gun also has 2,777 foot-pounds of recoil energy, which essentially makes it as powerful – and has about as much ‘kick’ – as firing 10 .30-6 rifles at the same time.”

Inventing Pretexts to Ignore the Fourth Amendment

Posted on by

“Describing these factors as a threat to ‘officer safety,’ the agents demanded access to the home to conduct a ‘protective sweep,’ during which ammunition and drugs were found. A district court denied Mongold’s motion to suppress the evidence. The US. Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the district court and suppressed the evidence, noting that the ATF agents ‘could most easily have protected the officers’ safety by leaving [the] home, not by entering it.’ The Tenth Circuit quite sensibly slapped down this cynical argument for a warrantless search, but it was careful to specify that its sensible ruling is not to be used as a precedent.”

Drone-Hunter’s Motto: “The Fly in Town — they Get Shot Down”

Posted on by

“On two occasions in a single week, surveillance drones operated from Florida’s Tyndall Air Force Base were destroyed in incidents that put the public at risk. This is one of many reasons why cities across the country should emulate the example set by Deer Trail, Colorado. The municipal government of that village of 540 people is considering a proposal under which it would issue a $100 reward to ‘any shooter who presents a valid hunting license and … identifiable parts’ of a federally operated drone. As Deer Trail resident Philip Steel explains: ‘We do not want drones in town. They fly in town, they get shot down.'”

Arizona Man Holding Air Rifle Killed In His Own Backyard In Drug Raid

Posted on by

“Tempe, Arizona, police in the Special Investigations/Narcotics Unit serving a drug search warrant Wednesday afternoon shot and killed a man in his backyard as he held an air rifle. John Wheelihan, 43, becomes the 22nd person to die in US domestic drug law enforcement operations so far this year, and the sixth in the last month. The victim appears to be a local photographer whose listed business address matches the address the police raided. Police did not say whether they were serving a ‘no-knock’ warrant, whether they were uniformed or undercover, or whether any drugs were discovered.”

In Newtown, Gun Permits Surge After Shooting

Posted on by

“The number of people seeking permits to buy guns has surged in this town following the December massacre of schoolchildren by a local man, even as the parents of some victims had urged stricter weapons laws nationwide. Through July 24, more than 200 people in Newtown have received new local pistol permits, according to a review of local records, surpassing the 171 new permits issued for all of last year. Such permits are prerequisites for Connecticut permits that allow people to purchase and carry pistols as well as rifles or shotguns.”

Alabama’s becomes ‘shall issue’ concealed carry state

Posted on by

“Starting tomorrow, Aug. 1, Alabama’s new comprehensive gun law takes effect, which among other things will make the Heart of Dixie a ‘shall issue’ state as opposed to a ‘may issue’ state with respect to concealed carry and will allow law-abiding gun owners to store firearms in their vehicles while they’re at work. However, there’s way more to it than that and given the fact that there has been so much uncertainty about the new law and how it impacts gun owners, businesses, colleges, universities and the non-gun owning public, below is arguably the best explanation of the new law on the Web.”

Concealed Guns Are Now Legal in Illinois (But Not Chicago)

Posted on by

“If you have a gun and want to carry it without being bothered by local law enforcement, you will have to travel a bit outside of metro Chicago. But not too far. Even though Illinois’ new concealed carry law is on the books, the actual state permitting process is not ready to go and won’t be for months. Regardless, the I-Team has identified 14 counties where authorities say you may not be arrested for carrying a gun. With this week’s override action by the General Assembly, Illinois was the 50th state to allow concealed carry.”
