12:05am Tuesday, November 10, 2009
By Jeff Hagy Here's the thing, if it can happen at a military base , it can happen anywhere.

Hunting Season Is the Perfect Time to Mentor a Newcomer; And You Could Win $1,000 in the STEP OUTSIDE Sweepstakes

12:05am Monday, November 09, 2009
Fall is a time of year parents and their children enjoy doing things together—attending soccer matches, carving scary jack-o'-lanterns, raking leaves (OK, maybe that one's not so much fun) and gathering around the table for Thanksgiving dinner. It's also a great time of year to introduce a young person to hunting. Hunting seasons are open across the country. From deer to upland birds, waterfowl,...

Will Health Care Reform Regulate Guns?

8:21pm Friday, November 06, 2009
By Ken Hanson, Esq. Buckeye Firearms Association is a single issue, non-partisan PAC concerned with gun rights. As such, the debate on health care reform occurring across the U.S. is not something that would be within our normal sphere of coverage. However, my good friend Chad Baus posted a story a few days ago highlighting how the Centers for Disease Control has begun researching gun violence...

Are your gun rights worth $8.97?

12:05am Friday, November 06, 2009
Dear Gun Rights Supporter, I was speechless. Recently, while reviewing donations, I found myself marveling at the generosity of our many Ohio supporters. From every part of the state, people of all ages were showing their support for our work on the Second Amendment case now before the U.S. Supreme Court. Checks for $100, checks for $500, and one massive check for $10,000 from the USCCA. I was...

Editorial: The feds take a shot at guns

12:05am Thursday, November 05, 2009
Obama administration caught "loading their guns" for a new round of anti-gun legislation For a decade, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been forbidden by Congress from doing research on gun-control issues. Such piddling hurdles as federal law don't matter to the Obama administration. With a wave of a hand, the CDC has simply redefined gun-control research so the ban no longer...

Sometimes Criminals Walk Among Us: Self-Enforcement is Key at Gun Shows

12:10am Wednesday, November 04, 2009
By Gerard Valentino The national establishment media is getting a lot of mileage from another of New York Mayor Bloomberg's dirty tricks. In this case, the Mayor sent private investigators to gun shows in several states to prove that illegal gun trafficking is taking place, and that criminals can easily buy firearms in unregulated private transactions. Video collected at several guns shows showed...

Prosecution as Punishment: The Troubling Case of Albert Kwan

12:05am Wednesday, November 04, 2009
By Jeff Knox People who "have nothing to hide" are often quite happy to answer any questions and consent to any intrusion a police officer might ask of them. They may even invite officers to "look around" if they want to. If you ask a good defense attorney how much you should cooperate with police, particularly when they are conducting an investigation in which you could possibly be a suspect, he...

REMINDER: VOTE TODAY!

12:10am Tuesday, November 03, 2009
Polls will be open across the state of Ohio and around the nation today, and once again, pro-gun voters will have a disproportionate impact on the election outcome here in the Buckeye state. Although there are 11 million voters in Ohio, about 4 million are ineligible to vote, either by age or lack of registering. And out of the 7 million registered voters, precedent suggests that only a little...

12:10am Monday, November 02, 2009
By Gerard Valentino The media recently brought us news yet another senseless death took place on the killing fields of Chicago. Yet again, it was a high school age victim, and the altercation was gang related. Unfortunately for Chicago Mayor Richard Daley, he won't be able to use this murder in his never-ending crusade to ban guns in the city. In this case, the young man who senselessly lost his...

Congress Passes NRA-Backed Legislation Protecting Pocketknife Classification

12:05am Monday, November 02, 2009
Back in June, we reported on a proposed U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) rule change that would have expanded the Switchblade Knife Act of 1958 to include spring-assisted or one-handed-opening knives, and would have directly targeted the importation of "assisted opening" folding knives. (Read the proposed rule here.) Assisted opening knives are frequently used by hunters, anglers, farmers...
