By Dan Zimmerman The Truth About Guns Amy Swearer is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Edwin Meese III Center for Legal and Judicial Studies at the Heritage Foundation and also runs the group’s Defensive Gun Use Database. Check out what she had to say about gun violence in America below: We have a very real national crisis of disillusioned young men who are increasingly alienated from society, overly connected to the internet, and full of anger. They are too easily pulled into extremism and too often turn to violence as an outlet. We have a local, state, and national…
By Grace Stevens The Truth About Guns DeSantis is a target because he has been massively successful in Florida and his policies have garnered him an increase in the black vote in the last election. Democrats in the Sunshine State are in disarray, and their desperation comes across in blaming the governor for this racist shooting. Of course, it’s not just DeSantis getting tarred with the blame. It’s any Republican. Tim Scott and Nikki Haley both got a mention in the AP piece, and [Steve] Peoples and [Brendan] Farrington made sure to insert their ignorant opinion that “Republicans have little…

By Steve Tarani GunMag Warehouse As of this writing, there are several types of gunpowder and propellants available to shooters, each designed for specific applications. Commonly used types of gunpowder available today include the likes of black, smokeless, ball, flake, pistol, rifle and shotgun powders.

By Cam Edwards Bearing Arms After several months of investigation, police and prosecutors in Polk County, Iowa have concluded the same thing that eyewitnesses have been saying since May: an armed citizen was justified in shooting and killing a man who was threatening several people with a knife at an apartment complex. Officers were called to the scene around 11:30 p.m. on the evening of May 9th, arriving to find two people shot, one of them with serious injuries. Eyewitnesses told police that 62-year-old Stephen Miller wasn’t the victim but the aggressor, and that he’d only been shot after threatening the…
By Tom Knighton Bearing Arms We write a fair bit about armed citizen stories. We’re far from alone as well, with most of the pro-gun media covering various stories about regular folks using firearms to defend themselves from violent criminals. But there’s debate about such incidents. There’s no doubt they happen. We couldn’t write about them if they didn’t. Yet we’re also told quite often that armed citizens don’t actually make us any safer. How is that the case when we know we’re only touching the tip of the iceberg in our own coverage? Well, America’s 1st Freedom decided to weigh in…
By Kat Ainsworth GunMag Warehouse There might not be a more memorable line than “But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.” That’s Liam Neeson’s most famous, or potentially infamous, line in the first “Taken” movie. It’s a line that’s inspired all manner of memes and jokes, and it’s probably convinced more than a few people to give the movie a try. We’ve taken all three “Taken” movies and picked out our top five gun choices. It’s hard…
