Win Some Free Gear – Make A Video Response!

Urban Armed - 200 Sub Contest

 

So in my pursuit of making really great (total suck) videos, I have decided to shamelessly self promote my YoutTube channel by hosting a 200 subscriber contest. It’s actually quite simple. All you have to do is watch the video below or click here.

Ok, Next think you need to do is find a mask, make a mask, or just go into that Halloween box in the attic closet and see what you can come up with for a fun mask to wear for making a video response.  Next I want you to show me your carry weapon, and why you have chosen that weapon. If you don’t carry then just show me what weapon you would carry if you did. If you don’t own a carry weapon, then just show me a picture and tell me why you chose that particular weapon.

Female Conceal Carry

EDC Conceal Carry Pistol Options

Female Conceal Carry Options

In the pursuit of finding the best conceal carry options, Rebecca from “RebeccaGuns” discusses the journey she traveled to discover the best conceal carry weapon. There are many factors at play when choosing a weapon to carry on a daily basis. We wrote in a previous post about the challenges of females finding the best fire-arm to conceal carry. Women usually wear tighter clothing than men, don’t want to “dress around their weapon” and often wear skirts or dresses which means “no waist band” to speak of.

Seems there are some criteria for selecting the perfect weapon:

  1. Stopping Power
  2. Stopping Capacity
  3. Frame Size
  4. Barrel Length
  5. What holster options are available

Rebecca shares her experience in this video:

Richard Wyatt Indicates Gun Control Is Spurring Gun Sales

April 24, 2012 in Ecostories with 0 Comments

Gun Sales On The Rise!

Quoted in an interview with Fox Richard Wyatt from American Guns said

“Sales of firearms have exponentially increased, and the political attitude has a lot to do with that,” Rich Wyatt, the gun master and former police officer, told FOX411’s Pop Tarts column. “I personally wasn’t in favor of Barack Obama for President, but he has been a great salesman and his anti-gun stance has really helped us.”

“If you want to sell something in America, tell people they can’t have it, Wyatt explained. “People fear he’ll ban guns so they go out and buy a dozen of them… President Clinton sold a lot for us, but President Obama has sold more.”

TheFireArmGuy Is Giving Away 10 Knives!

10 knife giveaway contest by TheFireArmGuy on YouTube.

2012 Ammo Shortage

In 2008 most people in the gun world remember the challenges in finding ammo, and when they did find it it was rationed or very expensive. Well, it’s four years later and we are right back in a Presidential election season and gun sales are soaring. So much so that some companies like Ruger and Winchester have stopped taking orders because of the backlog and overwhelming flood of orders from distributors and retailers.

TheFireArmGuy on Youtube is holding a contest on this topic asking people if they believe a shortage will once again plague us all, and what are we planning to do about it.

Below is the contest video, and my video response below that. If you submit a video response to enter the contest, let me know and I will post it.

Gun Idiot Of The Week – 12ga To Chest

March 25, 2012 in Gun Idiot Of The Week with 0 Comments

Comparing Getting Shot By 12ga to Sex On A Roller-coaster

Darwinism at it’s finest. The irony is if you go to their channel, they are all about survival, prepping, hunting etc. It would behoove one to think that if part of what you do is to practice survival techniques that would also include not taking 12 gauge shotguns blasts to the chest at 25 feet, but that’s just me.

The take-away I get from this is in order to be  a man, you must get drunk with your buddies, put on a leather jacket, and shoot each other with “non-lethal rubber pellets” from a Mossberg 500. I’ll be in the wimpy crowd, thanks.

KONY 2012 Is A SCAM

Do We Have Your Attention Now?

KONY 2012 Is A Scam

In order to deploy a military presence in Africa, the American support is key. How do you get the majority of Americans ok with going to war or at a minimum have a military presence in Africa without anyone questioning motive? Provide the motive.

Let me preface this with saying I’m not intending to be insensitive to the crimes against humanity that have been conducted by Joseph Kony, but please understand that this video was originally filmed in 2006 and didn’t get ANY press coverage. Also keep in mind that social media wasn’t in much existence in 2006 so it was hard to get wide spread coverage. Why am I mentioning this? Because, Joseph Kony hasn’t actually been active in Uganda for years. What is in Uganda? Oil. Lots and lots of black money spewing from the ground.

The LRA is surely guilty of committing  kadogo (child soldiers) but so has the Democratic Republic of Congo, and this isn’t mentioned in the video. Especially when Ugandans have been wishing to rid of Yoweri K. Museveni who has been in power for more than 20 years by way of stealing elections and using the same violent tactics as Joseph Kony. Bill Clinton has been a long time supporter of Museveni and his power hold on the region.

Springless AA2 Kit

March 9, 2012 in Accessories with 0 Comments

Closest thing to a full auto Ruger 10/22

Springless AA2 Kit

The stock and KIDD two stage trigger is the perfect addition to any Ruger 10/22. This kit is hitting the market with a lot of attention just like the infamous “slidfire” stock for the AR platform. The kit comes in at a cool $629.00 which is steep considering I paid for $189.00 brand new for my Ruger 10/22 with fiber optic sights. To drop more than three times what I spent ont he rifle for a stock and trigger group just seems absolutely……….awesome. :)

I don’t think I will be picking this up anytime soon but sure would love to get my hands on one. The issue with the AR/AK slidefire is that it’s super fun, but you burn through some expensive ammo super fast. With the AA2 Kit, you could play all day for $20.00 since 22 LR ammo is so inexpensive. It’s a tempting offer. Click Read More to see the awesome video..

Best Guns For Women?

March 7, 2012 in Conceal Carry with 3 Comments

How do you select a firearm for a female shooter?

Best Guns For Women

Recently more females in my immediate and extended family have shown more interest in not just purchasing a firearm that is right for them, but also carrying one on their person, in their purse or nearby.  This is a completely different scenario versus a man carrying. Typically men can carry inside or outside the waistband on different location of their waist. Women’s waist are not straight like a mans and it can create challenges for carrying larger firearms.

The first and foremost objective is to identify a firearm that is comfortable in the hand of the shooter, and the balance. The next is how does the gun feel when firing the weapon and the recoil. This first step usually will determine the size of the cartridge or caliber of the gun. The next step is to determine a revolver (quite popular with the ladies) or a semi automatic pistol. These are also referred to as striker fired pistols. The best way to figure this out is to take your lady, sister, mom, grandma or whoever it is to the local gun range. Rent some different revolvers and pistols and put some brass through them.   Some popular choices amongst females are the following:

Starbucks BuyCott Photo Explosion

February 17, 2012 in Ecostories with 0 Comments

I feel a bit overwhelmed and honored..

I’m a fan of “Anything About Guns” on Facebook, and I had posted a photo on Tuesday, February 14th, 2012 for Valentines’s Day to show my support for the second amendment. I normally do not open carry, but I did that day to show my support. There are some anti gun violence groups that are boycotting Starbucks until they change their policy to not allow citizens carrying firearms to enter their cafes.

The gun community stepped up to showo support for Starbucks, not for being pro gun, but for being pro law. Currently 43 states allow open carry (some require permits or licenses) and that would mean law abiding citizens would be banned from legally carrying a firearm into Starbucks. Starbucks doesn’t want to get in the middle of a debate, they have just stated they will honor and respect local ordinances and laws where their stores are located.

Good enough for me! Below is a photo taken a few moments ago showing how many times through “Anything About Guns” has been shared from a single post. I don’t even know what to say, other than thank you all for the support.
