Obama announces he'll “leave no stone unturned” in seeking new measures to reduce gun violence in wake of Colorado mass murder

7:00am Friday, July 27, 2012

by Chad D. Baus and Jim Irvine Ask any politically-minded gun owner who stays abreast of current events why they believe Barack Obama is anti-gun, and they will quickly respond with a litany of reasons, dating from his days in Illinois as a state senator and Joyce Foundation board member, as well as his days in the U.S. Senate. Most will also be able to rattle off examples of President Obama's...

Buckeye Vintage Skeet Championships: A Step Back In Time

3:00pm Thursday, July 26, 2012

by Larry S. Moore Vintage is used to describe many things including wine, art, automobiles and firearms. For the Buckeye Vintage Skeet Championship, vintage is a step back in time for skeet shooters.

In New York this week, the U.N. Conference on the Arms Trade Treaty continued trying to draft a treaty to impose worldwide controls on small arms, including civilian-owned firearms.

Defending yourself against a spree killer like the one in Aurora, Colorado

7:00am Tuesday, July 24, 2012
