Northam has been threatening to declare a state of emergency for days, and it culminates what has been the worst slander against lawful gun owners in recent memory.

Governor Northam may be facing legal action against his gun ban, and one Virginia delegate wants to make it more difficult for people to afford guns and ammo.

“It appears to be an actual attempt to ban private sales through red tape and fear,” she said. “Asking average citizens to create what amounts to a government form and get it notarized is ridiculous.”

Two armed self-defense stories this week illustrate why it pays to be prepared at all hours of the day. In both cases, the would-be burglars attempted a home invasion in broad daylight—until they met the armed, unhappy homeowners.

The global historical evidence shows that too much gun control is much more dangerous than too little gun control. Disorganized criminals can kill a lot of people, but criminal governments are far more deadly, by about two orders of magnitude.

Gun owners in Virginia are preparing for what promises to be a contentious legislative session set to begin on Wednesday, January 8, at the General Assembly in Richmond.

Accuracy is crucial in a self-defense situation, of course, but the odds are small that you’ll ever need a firearm for self-defense. Hunting, on the other hand, combines the frequency of competition with the ethical import of life and death.

Savage Arms announced Friday its entry into the semi-auto shotgun market with the RENEGAUGE (pronounced like “renegade”) line of scatterguns.

After being shot once, the burglar ran out of the house to his car and drove away. Police found the car crashed about two blocks from the home.
