WLS is Lifestyle Glocks Betrayal https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2025/10/14/nra-saf-fpc-file-suit-against-californias-glock-ban/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yY_kIV_T1ZE   Aaron's Alley Going Ballistic Court Ruling Fires Back at Gun Control Nonsense A recent court ruling in Reese v. ATF has overturned previous regulations, reinforcing the privacy rights of Second Amendment supporters. This decision is a setback for gun control advocates seeking greater oversight and tracking of gun owners, while bolstering the argument for individual rights in the gun community. NSSF Hits Back: Bloomberg's Hit Piece Exposed as Anti-Gun Nonsense The NSSF is rebutting claims made by Bloomberg's The Trace, defending the firearms industry against what they perceive as unfounded attacks. This ongoing clash reflects the tension between gun advocates and those promoting tighter gun control, further polarizing discussions around firearm regulations. Supreme Court to Decide if You Can Pack Heat While High The Supreme Court is set to evaluate the intersection of gun rights with drug use regulations, a move that could reshape existing laws surrounding firearm ownership for those using substances deemed illegal. This case may challenge gun control advocates and further solidify the Second Amendment's stance against restrictions tied to drug use, potentially emboldening gun owners and the broader pro-gun community. When Anti-Gun Advocates Finally See the Light In a surprising twist, Don Lemon has called on Black Americans to arm themselves in response to concerns about ICE. This statement may resonate within the gun community, emphasizing individual rights and self-defense, while also stirring the pot among gun control advocates who typically oppose such rhetoric. CCRKBA Calls Out Newsom for His Glock Grabbing Shenanigans The CCRKBA criticizes Governor Newsom for his proposed ban on Glock handguns, arguing it infringes on Second Amendment rights. This move is seen as part of a broader trend of gun control measures that the organization believes alienates responsible gun owners and threatens individual freedoms. https://soldiersystems.net/2025/10/17/sig-sauer-responds-to-new-jersey-attorney-generals-latest-attack-on-firearms-industry/ https://www.theoutdoorwire.com/releases/1c87bd3e-f7cd-4a3d-8d7d-fc64795eb0bb https://www.

I understand that is going to be a thing with a shorty, but I'm sure there are ways to mitigate it somewhat. I have a no-name linear comp that is ok until I pick up a suppressor, but am open to suggestions for muzzle devices. I also think an adjustable gas block would be a good start. Any suggestions on the best for the money? What else should I look for to break the spirit on this little blaster? Thanks Zac C - Hey guys, just started looking for my son’s first deer rifle for his 13th birthday. I’d like to stay around 600 or less not including optic. Figured I couldn’t go wrong with a .243 youth rifle with a 3x9 or a 4-12 scope. What rifle would y’all suggest? Thanks! Shoot straight! Notes- Hi Dan. Y'all Cunts - What’s up gents. I’m planning on buying a GIRSAN INFLUENCER X in the near future. I’ve heard nothing but good things from a few guys I know the have them. My question is the valor mini to small for it and what light would you guys recommend? I’ll probably already have it fully decked out by the time you read this but keep on keeping on. Miss Ogynist - My Dishwasher is broke. Should I replace or just write her a check? Joe E - Just listening to DoubleTap 423 and I swear to Christ Jeremy is trolling me personally at this point. I'm also a Marine that was in Horno 05-07 and was stationed in Ft Leonnardwood from 00-01. Big Louies was the greatest stripe club ever, bring your own bucket of beer! Sucks that they got shut down. I don't remember Jeremy but feel I would if I had seen his giant ass walking around. I'm a POG (5711) so not crossing paths is not shocking, but Horno is a small as camp and the Marine Det on Leonardwood is tiny as well, so maybe just missed him. Jeremy do you remember the taxi driver with the gimpy arm that kept his glove boxes full of porno's? Can't remember his name wonder if he was still around. Did you end up in the old ass white squad bays while you were in MAT Platoon? Follow up to the suppressor move question that you all answered for me. Having to move back to a completely none friendly state, I am leaving them with inlaws in a safe they have no access too. I will have an ID for the friendly state, but my drivers license and residency will be in the none friendly state. Will that stop me from continuing to purchases NFA items, or I am able to purchase them in the friendly state with my ID and leave them there?" Boomer with Garands - Who wrote and performed the theme song to "Double Tap"? What are the lyrics to the whole tune, and where can I download the complete song? It's very catchy! Notes- "After thorough and exhaustive examination of the material in question, I can confidently and unequivocally state that there are no further suggestions, observations, or amendments that would be required or deemed beneficial at this particular juncture. The work stands as is, complete and without need for any additional commentary or revision from my side." --ChatGPT's version of "No Notes" #StopPostingBlueAlphaCodesOnReddit #0.8xListener Mikoks Bigrthanyerz - What is required to have Shawn (I'm TCCC cert because of my #SSB) Herein come teach medical classes in our state? Thanks.. Notes- why does the wind blow from west to east in Wis...

Radio Show Planning and Content The team discussed the latest news, including a peace deal brokered by their president between Hamas and Israel, and prepared for their radio show. The team also addressed a recent question submitted about charcoal chimneys and decided to include it in the show for fun. Firearms Training and Vision Challenges The episode of Student of the Gun Radio discussed upcoming events, including National Hug Your AK Day on October 18th, and highlighted the importance of vision issues in firearms training. The hosts shared their recent experiences in Texas, where they encountered challenges related to students' sightedness, emphasizing the need for proper eye protection and clear vision during training. They also mentioned an interview with Michael Schwartz of Gun Owners Radio about California's gun control measures and encouraged listeners to participate in upcoming events and discussions. Vision Solution for Shooters The group discussed a vision-related challenge faced by some students who have had corrective eye surgery, resulting in inconsistent shooting accuracy. Jarrad and the professor explored the concept of using an occluded eye gun sight, similar to the OEG technology used by Special Forces during the Vietnam War, to potentially help these students. They hypothesized that covering the red dot sight on a pistol and using both eyes could improve target acquisition for individuals with different vision prescriptions. The professor committed to testing this hypothesis using the scientific method, starting with background research and moving to testing and analysis, with the goal of developing a solution for handgun shooters with vision issues.
