Memphis is a rough town, with no shortage of gang violence. Along those lines, footage has leaked of a major gun battle between gangs last weekend. A heckuva way to start April Fool's Weekend, right? A man in a suit working security for an upscale restaurant/nightclub did his job and…
Todd Vandermyde, the Illinois Gun Law Guru and former NRA-ILA contract lobbyist for Illinois, takes a look at the new Illinois Firearm Ban Act. In it, he makes the case for how the Remington 870, America's favorite shotgun with 11+ million in circulation, is illegal under the new law. "Huh?"…
Bad news from the US District Court in Southern Illinois. The ISRA's lawsuit Anderson v. Raoul challenging the Land of Lincoln's ban on suppressors has been stayed for 90 days. Here's the docket entry from Court Listener. ORDER STAYING CASE: This case was filed on February 27, 2023. On February…

Now, the leaders of the Tennessee House are moving to expel those three members for “knowingly and intentionally bring(ing) disorder and dishonor to the” body.…
So leave it to Governor JB Pritzker to offer his flawed thoughts on the Second Amendment. First, he claims without citing any evidence in support of it that there are "limits" to the Second Amendment. No, we aren't talking about grenade-launching machine guns either. Not only that, but towards the…
On Saturday, we reported on Thomas Maag's court win from March enjoining the Illinois State Police from suspending the FOID cards of those arrested in Illinois. We warned Pritzker and his gun hating buddies that if they keep poking the bear, we're going to take a wrecking ball to the…
