This is a perfect example of why we say the .380 is not adequate as a defensive round. This lack of effectiveness is the rule with this caliber, not the exception.

Constitutional civil rights to mean much if you can’t exercise them. NSSF is taking the lead on helping D.C. residents bring their Second Amendment rights from theory to reality. Hat tip to them!

A good place to start would be to admit that you and the government of Chicago have failed utterly and completely to keep the public safe. Chicago is one of the most dangerous cities in the country. The second step would be to remember that you are a city in the United States and that your citizens have a natural God-given right to an effective self defense. It is clearly specified in the Constitution of this republic, and you cannot ignore it regardless of how hard you may try. Being a nanny city-state isn’t working, hasn’t worked and will never work.

Despite a nationwide economic decline, gun store and range workers say First Coast residents aren’t cutting back on self-protection. Jackie Miller, owner of Bullseye Gun and Pawn, said she has seen increased traffic from gun novices whose interests were piqued by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that interpreted the Second Amendment and legitimized private gun ownership.

These folks say they care about your “safety” but they want to deny law-abiding, tax-paying citizens their constitutional right to an adequate self-defense

I don’t sell my reloads very often, but with the price of ammo these days, reloading is like printing money. I stopped by the local range to pick up a couple of boxes of ammo on the way to a match. It was two boxes of S&B 230 grain FMJ. The clerk rang up the bill: $38. What’s different now is that the war happened; ammo got scarce; metals went through the roof, but I don’t want to give up shooting because ammo has tripled in price. My aching pocket book brought to my remembrance the reloading press that had been carefully packed away and stored in the basement.

Imagine the relief when the driver hands you a drivers license and a CCW permit. Those two things tell you a lot about a person. One, I can know for certain who this person is and two, this person has subjected themselves to a criminal background check and the State has said yes, we trust you with a concealed weapon. This is probably not a bad guy here.

Barack Obama specifically voted four times in the Illinois Legislature to allow criminal charges against a homeowner who used a firearm in self-defense of their person and home — specifically what the Supreme Court says is a constitutional right. Obama may say he supports it, but his record says exactly the opposite.

Just because you’re only planning a quiet dinner with friends DOES NOT mean that someone else is not planning a violent robbery, rape, or other crime against you.
