Far from the first time I've seen the phrase in use for online bike parts (at Price Point this time if you're interested) but everytime it makes me laugh to myself.

Wait a minute...
...is that really the best way to describe it?

Army Sending out New Flashhiders
From AAC (Blackout) and Surefire (for the M240, this one maybe? I'll have to hit up my contacts over in A-Stan and see if they know anything.)

Total of 12 hours of work today, after being a Soldier all weekend... still no internet at the new place, so trying to catch up with things. Fun times.
Colorado Pushing for Constitutional Carry
It's good to see it picking up more steam in a variety of other states. This gives us in Wisconsin more hope of reasonable CCW legislation in the coming year.
MOE Rifle-length Handguards
Are now shipping.
I like the looks of the MOE handguards personally. It's a nice change up from the normal round or oval ribbed two piece guards. This one rounds out the set of Carbine, Mid, and Rifle length handguards in the MOE line. I'm probably going to use a Mid-length one on the next couple builds I'm contemplating.

Mild HyperStealth SMARTCAMO Update
Looks like it was posted a couple days ago, but I was busy with moving and all that.
This really is looking to be one of the coolest things I've heard of this year.

Ninja Suit
Despite the name, I do want. The Merino Wool one, I'm pretty partial to the green-ish color.
So... Cool...
Via SayUncle, a homebuilt 12ga revolving shotgun using chambers cut from scrap 12ga barrels and a $10 barrel. This is quite possibly the coolest thing you'll see all day.
Chinese Top Gun
Not quite what you think. Although I think Tom Cruise may be about the same height as most of their pilots, for what it's worth.
MWG 40
Bulgarian manufactured 40 round magazines for the AR-15.
At $25.95 I may have to pick some up and see what I think next payday. I've got a couple Bulgarian AK mags and they're rather nice.

Cat Shit One
Starting on Feb. 5th, the first episode with English dubbing will be up for a limited time on iDa Entertainment's site, and the first DVD & Blue Ray sets will be available on Amazon.
I'm pretty excited, I've seen the first episode with subtitles, and it was awesome, but it's nice to not have to read and miss the action.

I'm moving...
Me, the person, not the blog. I got a new apartment, so blogging may be rather light this coming week between that and work (8 on, 8 off, 8 on a couple times... about to crash for one of the "offs" right now...)

Question of the Day
What do ‘sporting purposes’ have to do with Second Amendment?David Codrea talks about the recent ATF shotgun "study."
(h/t SayUncle)
Sig716
Sig also revealed their 7.62x51mm AR10 type rifle during SHOT.
I think it looks good, and has a lot of features I'd go with right out of the box. Maybe I'll be able to get one in a few years....
On a more serious note, they're making them in a 12.5" SBR, 14.5" carbine, 16" patrol carbine, and 20" marksman package (pictured above.)

It's Monday.
The ATF says so. Actually I'm sure they were just recovering from too much A at their post-SHOT party. They finally got their shotgun thing out that they referred to last week.
Just skimming over the begining, it looks like they tried to more narrowly define "sporting purposes," and decided that the only legitimate ones are the ones that have been around for 100 years and only use pretty shotguns that don't hurt feelings. Oh, and "plinking" isn't a sporting purpose either, since you can do that with any gun. So any "action shooting" like IPSC or three gun stuff is not a sporting purpose.
That's all sorts of crap...
Anyway, Uncle's got a better breakdown going, I'm picking up a few extra hours at work tonight, so I'm probably not going to be able to get through it.

Twisted Industries .22lr Kel-Tec Conversion
I was contemplating keeping an eye out for a PF9, this may be the proverbial straw...
GFS.com Acquires TFB
Actually, Congratulations to Steve. A good deal came at a perfect time to get him set up in a great way. The Firearm Blog is one of the small handful of gun blogs that pushed me over the edge and into the abyss that is the gunblogospher, and it still remains one of my largest influences.
The "Guns, not Politics" policy is refreshing, and Steve promises that it will not change. The sale only means he'll have more time to blog, and spend less time on the maintenance required to host your own site or however that works (there's a reason I use Blogger... I'm not too much of a computer person.)
Again, congrats to Steve, and best of luck in his future endeavors.

Angered the beast that is Gun Nuts Media. I don't blame them though(GNM I should say.)
Who Can Carry
It looks like South Dakota is starting to revise things after the recent lawsuit. Between this and Wyoming's progress yesterday, it's good to see more of this going around.
Really, I find it difficult to really understand any viewpoint other than Constitutional Carry. I mean if you can legally buy the thing, why do you need to jump through a bunch more hoops to carry it? And why should it matter how you carry it? But I'm preaching to the choir...

I'm not holding my breath either...
...but it sure would be neat for the CLEO Signature to disappear.
Hexolit 32
Funky looking super-expanding shotgun slugs. The concept intrigues me, but I'll wait until there's more penetration studies done.

Good for them!
Wyoming Senate passes Constitutional Carry. I hope it continues all the way to the top and provides an example of why my home state should be doing.
