Russia Cuts Off Ammo Imports?

SilverDoctors says:

“The largest wholesale gun & ammo distributors in the US have informed us in private conversation today that a massive scramble is on for all 7.62 as Russia has reportedly halted all exports to the US of Russian made ammunition.”

I have not provided a link to their website because my security software gave me a warning. But you can copy and paste that quoted text into a search engine and see sites repeating it.

I've been asked if I've heard anything about this.  I have not, but I called Wolf. The guy who answered the phone had not heard anything, but asked me to send him an email and he'd forward it to their person who handles media inquiries.

If and when I know something, you'll know something.

UPDATE: I did not get a response from Wolf, but this guy says he did. And he says they say they haven't heard anything.

The 11th Hour

It makes no sense to act on complicated legislation like this in the last hours of the session, when tempers are flaring and everyone wants to go home. But for some legislators, pride and a desire for revenge are more important than thoughtful legislation. [More]

Sure it does. It's what they call "gunsense."

Meaning, of course, that it makes no sense, just like OFF said.

Wayne LaPierre's Speech at CPAC

NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre will be speaking today at the Conservative Political Action Conference at 2:30 2:15 p.m. Eastern time [UPDATE Note: NRA is updating the time in case the speech starts early so people don't miss the beginning].  This site has agreed to be a host site for the speech.

After the live presentation, I am told this will be able to replay the speech.

A more complete description of this event is posted in today's Gun Rights Examiner column.

As backup, in case this video player fizzles at the appointed hour, you'll be able to see the live speech at  NRA.org (www.nra.org) / NRA News (www.nranews.com).

Nice sadistic maniacs they employ.

Take One from Column A and One from Column B

The House of Delegates is considering a bill that would link Maryland's gun registry to its criminal database. [More]

Wait a minute...wouldn't that be Column C...?

Oak Tree Won't Go Away

Two relevant updates from Michael S. Rosenwald at The Washington Post:

• The smart-gun controversy at Oak Tree Gun Club
• California store’s sale of smart guns prompts furious backlash

Trust me when I say this is not my final word.

I have some very interesting documentation from one source with some relevant connections, and had an extended telephone conversation last night with another person who has some firsthand insights. I will be revisiting this again, pointing at some dots, and doing what I can from my end to connect them.

The Shap of Things to Come

The Vermont Speaker of the House talks about the betrayal in Burlington, and sounds like he's wholly amenable to the idea at some later date when "progressive" strength can assure victory at the state level. He comes on at about the 16:30 mark. [Listen] 

In the mean time, he does his best to divide and conquer by assuring the Useful Fudds they'll be eaten last.

 I'm told this weasel-wording weed has higher political ambitions.

Seven Questions

Look for "Old Bloody Hands" to block all of them. [More]

Whyte Supremacism Affirmed in California

I wonder what he's prepared to do if enough reject his claim?  [More]

Just because he thinks it's a safe decision in his immediate area doesn't mean those affected in outlying territories will be so compliant.

I see a candidate for Toys for Totalitarians.

Another Step Forward...

...in California. [More]

Good work.

Expect Kamala the Red to respond like she did in Peruta.

NRA Wins Facebook War!

Breitbart says it. [More]

So does The Washington Times.

You see anything here before the Facebook decision (which doesn't even mention them)?

Anybody see anything predating the decision and mobilizing the troops on their Facebook page?

Here's what a grassroots activist has to say:

Unless the NRA was making backdoor negotiations with Facebook, then the NRA had absolutely nothing at all to do with this. Grassroots groups, mine included, have been fighting our asses of for over a month regarding this, contacting Facebook, gathering signatures for a petition, countering moms demand's lies and rhetoric, and the win belongs to the 2a community as a whole, because we the people did this. Not the money of the NRA.

Where have we seen this before?

Oh yeah, here, and here and here and... 

Say, anybody see an official statement on this yet...? 

InfoMike

InfoWars has picked up on Mike's Connecticut adventures. [More]

I know he's not exactly an Alex Jones fan, so I'm wondering what his reaction will be.  No question, they have a huge ability to raise awareness.

One guy wants to kill you. The other wants to rape you first. [More]

Hey, if you don't vote, you can't complain!

We're the Only Ones Extra-Legal Enough

"Nobody said you did anything illegal," responded an officer. [More]

Then why did you force yourself on him?

It's not exactly like Lorain "Only Ones" have established themselves as the ... uh ... only ones who can be trusted with guns.

And my goodness, those "Authorized Journalists" look breathlessly indignant and concerned.  All that emphasis on "assault rifle," like they'd have been cool with a Fudd gun.

Take the Hint

Too sick to post this morning. [More] 

Give the guy a break and hold off on emails and comments. Such things accumulate, and it  takes a lot to process, respond and act.

If you want to help, do this.

This Day in History: March 6

You will see by it the Utility and Necessity of your going to Brest and there taking on board what you can of the continental Stores. It will be doing great Service to our Armies, who want much what is there provided for them and there you will find my Dispatches. [More]
