New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Tuesday that the state will appropriate $13.3 million to the Gun Involved Violence Elimination (GIVE) initiative.

“In Michigan and other places hit hard by the economic downturn, men’s guns can address social insecurities far beyond crime,” LA Times Op-Ed.

So, I’ve been getting some heavy flak recently for an article I wrote on the motorcycle gang fight in Waco, Texas. People are pissed off because I essentially told them to stay away from nefarious organizations, aka outlaw biker gangs.

“We’re working hard every day to make sure we can bring down the violence,” Mayor Walsh said. “What’s sad is there’s no outrage or protest about a 7-year-old being shot.”

From Hickok45, “Shooting and showing a Classic U.S. Military 1911 made by Remington Rand in 1943. Hope you get the opportunity to fire one of these some day. It’s hard to convey how special it is to enjoy something so historic.

The MULE. That’s an appropriate name for this beast. The MULE Tactical Stock is one of a kind. Inside the main compartment on the MULE is a storage area that is built to house a GLOCK, or other similarly sized pistol. Now you can put your back up gun inside you gun. But how practical is the MULE and how does it change the AR? Read on….
