Senator Lankford Introduces Pistol Brace Protection Act
From Bearing Arms:
Senator James Lankford (R-OK) is standing up for Oklahomans’ Second Amendment right to own and use pistol braces without burdensome regulation, registration, and taxation. Last week, Lankford introduced the Pistol Brace Protection Act. Lankford’s bill would gut an upcoming final rule by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) by exempting pistol braces from regulation under the National Firearms Act (NFA). The bill eliminates subjective standards that exist in federal law that have allowed ATF to reclassify firearms under the NFA, and guarantees that law-abiding gun owners will not have to register, destroy, or surrender their pistol brace.
The Ironman Of Shooting Matches?
From The Gun Writer:
Over the course of two days, 35 shooters ran and rucked more than 25 miles, while carrying 35-pound packs, carbines, handguns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition, and the occasional 20-pound sandbag. They navigated through a series of obstacles, performed one-man CQB and engaged multiple targets from 16 different shooting positions, including shooting from moving vehicles.
Official M17 Holster
From Sig:
Now you can own the holster kit officially selected by the U.S. Army for the M17 modular pistol: The M17 Belt and Leg Military Holster Kit from Safariland.
This kit allows the user to have one holster with two different ways to deploy it.
Configure it as a drop-leg holster with the thigh-mounted attachment:
Savage Introduces Micro Compact Pistol
From Guns.com:
The guns, polymer-framed striker-fired micro-compacts intended for carry and self-defense, use a serialized chassis that allows it to easily swap across a range of various grip frames with black, gray, and FDE modules available at launch, all with interchangeable backstraps to adjust grip size. The Stance has a 3.2-inch stainless-steel barrel, making it just slightly shorter than the Glock 43 and more akin in size to the FN 503 and Sig P365 in that metric. The new Savage pistols have 7, 8, and 10-round magazine options.
What’s Best For Home Defense?
From Guns.com:
Which is best for home defense: pistol, rifle, or shotgun? It’s an age-old question, but why? Possibly because every 30 seconds a burglary takes place in the U.S. That is a lot of home invasions even when you consider the fact that not all burglaries are in the home. Also, if a home invasion is not for a burglary, then the situation is probably much more critical.
The Four Must Have Items For Everyday Carry
From The Truth About Guns:
In order to address many of the frequently asked questions, several years ago I came up with a list that I dubbed “The Fundamental Four†of EDC. The Fundamental Four items that every armed citizen should have on their person before they walk out of the front door are; something Lethal, something Sharp, something Bright, and something Medical.
Additional Handgun Skills To Increase Your Competence
From USA Carry:
Many shooters take a basic handgun training course and/or complete the fundamental concealed carry licensing or permit class and stop at that point. Sadly, I have learned that several of our beginning students have done this, even after I have encouraged them to continue their handgun training to the next level. And I am not talking about only the mechanics of shooting, like proper grip, stance, sight alignment, sight picture, trigger control, follow-through, and a few use of deadly force laws. I know I felt that I learned so much after my day-long introductory concealed carry course that I felt that I was ready to defend myself in deadly-force situations and did not need further training on the basic mechanics or other skills.
Building An AR-9 Pistol
From The Truth About Guns:
Over the last year, I’ve made a solidly-performing 9mm polymer framed pistol, a fun AR-15 style rifle and a great “parts-binâ€Â AR10 in 6.5 Creedmoor based on kits from 80% Arms and Brownells. For the fourth installment of this loose series, I put together the 80% Arms AR-9 GLOCK magazine compatible braced pistol.
48 Senators Send Letter To Biden About Pistol Braces
From The Federalist:
In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, all of the Republicans in the Senate, except for Rob Portman of Ohio and Susan Collins of Maine, demand that the Biden administration “correct the mistake†and walk back the proposal which the legislators allege was justified on claimsâ€without evidence†that people simply wanted to avoid paying for NFA items.
New Shield Plus Holds 13+1 Rounds
From Guns.com:
The new 9mm M&P Shield Plus, which comes in both standard and Performance Center models, comes with 10- and 13-round mags while keeping the same traditional frame – and therefore holster – size as the legacy Shields. Other new additions are an updated and optimized grip texture and redesigned trigger. S&W says the flat-face trigger will give users a consistent trigger finger placement allowing for more accurate and repeatable shooting, while the new stippling on the grip texture allows the user to manage recoil, keep a firm grip, and not irritate the skin while carrying concealed.Â
New Ruger Micro Compact
From Guns.com:
Equipped with a tritium fiber optic day/night front sight that is co-witnessed for JPoint and Shield-pattern micro red dot sights, the MAX-9 runs flush-fit 10-round magazines as well as 12 rounders with a grip extension. Standard models have a frame-mounted 1911-style thumb safety while Pro models are available without the lever.
5.7 Has Been Standardized By NATO
From American Rifleman:
The FN-designed 5.7×28 mm caliber has been officially standardized by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Its development began in the late 1980s when, “Jean-Paul Denis and Marc Neuforge, designers at FN Herstal, started from scratch to design a new cartridge and then a platform to launch it,†according to Dave Campbell’s story for American Rifleman.
