Gun Grip Tips: Too Fat? Too Wide? Too Short? You Have Options!

by Dave Dolbee

3:00pm Thursday, August 25, 2016

They say a handgun with the proper grip fits your hand like a well-made glove. You’ll just pick it up and know that it is right. That thought looks great on paper and is something we can all relate to, but it is fish bait. If you catch a lot of fish, the bait was great! If you do not catch a fish, it was the bait’s fault. It is true that your handgun grip should feel good in your hand. If it is...

You can legally defend yourself with a gun if the situation includes these 3 elements

The importance of the woman vote

by Karen Butler

3:00pm Tuesday, August 23, 2016

Enough is Enough. I have a feeling that the terrorists are not surprised by our elected leaders' responses to the terrorist attack on American citizens in Orlando, Florida in the early morning hours of June 12th, 2016 - but we should be.

A key fiction that gun control supporters have been perpetuating for nearly a half-century gets more indefensible by the day.
