"For instance, the documents cast Gorbachev in a far darker light than the one in which he is generally regarded. In one document, he laughs with the Politburo about the USSR’s downing of Korean Airlines flight 007 in 1983—a crime that was not only monstrous but brought the world very near to nuclear Armageddon."

New groups mobilize as Indians embrace the right to bear arms.

From the Washington Post;

In the land of Mahatma Gandhi, Indian gun owners are coming out of the shadows for the first time to mobilize, U.S.-style, against proposed new curbs on bearing arms.

When gunmen attacked 10 sites in Mumbai in November 2008, including two five-star hotels and a train station, Mumbai resident Kumar Verma sat at home glued to the television, feeling outraged and unsafe.

Before the end of December, Verma and his friends had applied for gun licenses. He read up on India's gun laws and joined the Web forum Indians for Guns. When he got his license seven months later, he bought a black, secondhand, snub-nose Smith & Wesson revolver with a walnut grip.

"I feel safe wearing it in my ankle holster every day," said Verma, 27, who runs a family business selling fire-protection systems. "I have a right to self-protection, because random street crime and terrorism have increased. The police cannot be there for everybody all the time. Now I am a believer in the right to keep and bear arms."

I just found out that Mr. Completely has written three articles on fixing .22lr magazines.

I've just started reading Part I, and I'm looking forward to reading Part II and Part III as soon as I can. I have a Bersa 644 that has feeding problems.

This Saturday, 30 May, I was privileged to participate in a NRA "Women on Target" clinic held at the Livingston Gun Club in Brighton, MI.

There was close to 100 women in attendance. They had the opportunity to learn how to handle pistols, shotguns, rifles and bows/arrows.

I worked as a rifle instructor. From talking to some of the ladies, they were there because their husbands owned guns but never included them in their shooting activities. Some ladies had plenty of experience shooting shotguns, but no experience with pistols or rifles. Far more had no experience whatsoever and wanted to get a taste of shooting before they go out and buy their first gun.

The ladies were great. At the rifle station, we had four shooting benches and four instructors. We (the instructors) took as much time as we could to try and make sure that each shooter had a positive experience and because of that, things slowed down a little bit when they got to the rifle station.
But I didn't hear any complaints and when a group showed up and one of them started knocking down steel plates like an FBI sniper, they'd cheer her on and applaud.

Here is a group picture of the women who came out. I think the attendance was somewhere between 90 and 100. There was a prize table too. Events like this seem to be easy to collect swag for. There was t-shirts, ball caps, gun cleaning kits, air soft guns and a few other things. Each woman received a certificate of completion from the NRA.

 I've tried to tell people that the origin of gun control laws in the US have nothing to do with public safety but everything to do with population control.

 The JPFO has produced a short documentary discussing the racist origins of modern gun control laws.

I hate taking off handguards. But sometimes you have to.
This video shows you a very cheap solution to getting them to come off properly.
