U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance Columbus, OH --(Ammoland.com)- A bill introduced this week in New York would require sportsmen and gun owners to register their firearms when purchasing “bullets.”

AMMOLAND.COM SHOOTING SPORTS NEWS

Gunslick Pro Adds New Shotgun & Rifle Pull-Thru Cleaning Kits

Senate Bill 4152, introduced by Senator Malcolm A. Smith, would require sportsmen and gun owners to provide their full name, date of birth, and address as well as the make, model, caliber and serial number of their firearm on an “application” prior to purchasing “bullets.” The bill uses the generic term “bullets” in place of a more accurate description of the types of ammunition it seeks to restrict. It is unclear what types of ammunition would be classified as “bullets” under this bill.

MAR 24, 2011 08:06P.M. Gunslick Pro Adds New Shotgun & Rifle Pull-Thru Cleaning Kits

Furthermore, the “application” requirement seems to set up a dangerous scenario where you would be required to register a firearm owned by someone else under your own name if you simply borrowed the firearm for a hunting trip or day at the range and needed to buy “bullets.” “The proponents may term this an application to purchase ammo, but gun owners know full well that this is nothing more than a poorly disguised attempt to force gun registration upon law-abiding New Yorkers,” said Evan Heusinkveld, USSA director of state services. “This bill starts out bad and just gets worse as it goes along. New York sportsmen and gun owners alike should contact their state senators today in opposition to this measure.” The bill would also ban anyone under the age of 21 from purchasing “bullets” and would require that purchasers show two forms of identification. Additionally, the bill requires that the copies of the “application” to be submitted to all law enforcement agencies across the state. Not only is this unnecessary, it puts gun owner’s private information at risk of being lost or stolen.

Gunslick Pro provides precision gun care and cleaning to rifle and shotgun shooters. New Hunter’s and Shotgunner’s Pull-Thru Cleaning Kits contain quality accessories and an innovative jag system to easily clean weapons at the range or in the field. This system is unlike anything else on the market and eliminates the need for caliber-specific patches.

access to a vast area of Game Management Unit 19B north of Prescott, the Arizona Game and Fish Commission on March 23 decided to cancel the pronghorn antelope hunt there prior to the big game draw for the 2011 season.

The commission also expressed its desire to open up a dialogue on the whole land access and wildlife availability issue with land management agencies, county governments and stakeholders to include hunters, anglers and other recreationists. At issue is access to public lands and state trust lands and the management of public resources, such as wildlife and fish.

The commission’s decision affects the hunting prospects for 65 hunters who would have received allocated tags.

The Arizona Game and Fish Department prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age, or disability in its programs and activities. If anyone believes that they have been discriminated against in any of the AGFD’s programs or activities, including employment practices, they may file a complaint with the Director’s Office, 5000 W. Carefree Highway, Phoenix, AZ 85086-5000, (602) 9423000, or with the Fish and Wildlife Service, 4040 N. Fairfax Dr. Ste. 130, Arlington, VA 22203. Persons with a disability may request a reasonable accommodation or this document in an alternative format by contacting the Director’s Office as listed above.

Commission Chairman Robert Woodhouse said, “There have been closures of other hunt units for a season or more based on biological reasons such as severe winter die offs, loss of habitat due to fires, etc. … but this was the first time a decision was made to eliminate hunt tags due to public access closures. This was a difficult decision made only after extensive staff input and a long discussion by the commission.” During the discussion, commissioners pointed out that this was a “nowin situation” for the commission, the department, and for the hunters who applied for the general and archery pronghorn antelope hunts in Unit 19B this fall, but the commission was compelled to do what was most fair to all concerned.

Late last week, the property manager for the Chino Grande Ranch, which is a checkerboard of private and state trust land parcels, verbally notified the department that the ranch is now closed to public access, due to a proposed renewable energy project. Access to other portions of the unit has also become restricted, with some private lands being closed entirely and other ranches allowing access by payment of “trespass” fees.

AMMOLAND.COM SHOOTING SPORTS NEWS The Chino Grande Ranch contains a significant portion of the available pronghorn habitat in 19B, and its lands also hold the greatest density of pronghorn numbers in the unit.

Action Target Completes New Shooting Range in Tennessee

The deadline to apply for the upcoming draw was Feb. 8 and the draw results are pending, giving the commission only days to modify the affected hunts without affecting thousands of other hunters.

MAR 24, 2011 05:20P.M. Action Target Completes New Shooting Range and Retail Store in Piney Flats, TN

There are 4,780 people who applied for the 65 pronghorn antelope hunt permits in the two hunts (one general hunt and one archery hunt) scheduled for 19B. Game Branch Chief Brian Wakeling said “the antelope hunts in 19B are some of the most coveted in the state.” The commission also considered reducing the number of permits in the hunt but after significant discussion, the members felt that option would do a disservice to those who applied, as the area left open for 2011 would differ substantially from that available when hunters applied in February. With the elimination of these two hunts, the draw program will treat any choice where these hunts were selected as if all tags had been issued and move to the applicant’s next choice. The draw examines first and second choices primarily and then third, fourth, and fifth choices secondarily. The majority of the commissioners felt that to be the most equitable approach.

Anti-gun ObamaCare Celebrates One Year of Lies and Screw-ups MAR 24, 2011 04:53P.M. Anti-gun ObamaCare Celebrates One Year of Lies and Screwups

Gene Bishop Gun Owners of America

Bishop was a lifetime hunter, angler and conservationist who served on the CSF Board of Directors as well as the board of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.

Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- Not since “Rosemary’s Baby” – a ground-breaking film about the birth of the son of Satan – has a oneyear-old brought so much bad news during its first year of life.

He was past national president of the Jaycees’ U.S. Junior Chamber International Senate, former president of the North Fulton County Chamber of Commerce, president of the Georgia Health Care Association and regional vice-president, first vice-president and national president of the American Health Care Association.

But, believe it or not, ObamaCare turned one-year-old this week. And what a year it’s been! Remember the promises that ObamaCare would reduce the deficit? Well, that didn’t happen.

Gene also served as Georgia Southern University Boosters Chairman of the Board, where the Bishop Field House at Paulson Stadium on the university campus was named in his honor in 2007.

Remember the promises that ObamaCare wouldn’t affect your gun rights in any way? Well, the law will still compile all your health-related medical records into a massive computer database, which the FBI will be able to cull in order to determine whether you have a condition which would justify a gun ban.

The Veterans Administration then used this as a basis to define him as “mentally incompetent” and stripped him of gun rights — just like the other 150,000-plus veterans who have also been disarmed. Remember the dismissive pronouncements concerning Constitutionloving Americans who didn’t believe that Congress could force them to buy health insurance? Now, 27 states (a majority) have obtained judgments that ObamaCare is unconstitutional. The Obama administration is going on a vitriolic attack against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, whom it fears will be the deciding vote to throw their legislative abomination into the garbage can of history.

Yuma County Sheriff Chad Day, testifying on behalf of himself and Weld County Sheriff John Cooke, said the Second Amendment is a right. “Causing people to jump through government hoops turns that right into a mere privilege.” Sheriff Day cited numerous statistics to show that more citizens carrying concealed is a good thing for public safety.

Constitutional Carry Dead In Colorado MAR 24, 2011 01:42P.M.

Of course, Sheriff Day wasn’t the only law enforcement to speak on the bill. Boulder County Sheriff Joe Pelle (representing “Republican-InName-Only” Arapahoe Sheriff Grayson Robinson and Adams County Sheriff Doug Darr) opposed the bill.

Constitutional Carry Dead In Colorado Senate Dems Kill Landmark Pro-Gun Legislation.

Lobbyist Anne Marie Jensen, who represented the Colorado Association of Chiefs of Police but also normally works for Tom Mauser’s “Colorado Ceasefire Capitol Fund”, said “Sen. Brophy believes more guns will make citizens safer. Unfortunately, the Chiefs don’t agree.” Those advocating for Constitutional Carry should take heart: it took 9 years to pass a “Shall Issue” law in Colorado, and this is a long-term fight. Just remember these votes in the 2012 elections.

Rocky Mountain Gun Owners

RMGO has fought for Constitutional Carry (often called Vermont) since the founding of the group. And as the famous movie line goes, We’ll be back.

Colorado --(Ammoland.com)- Though not a surprise, yesterday the Senate State Affairs Committee voted 3-2 to kill HB1205, RMGO’s Constitutional Carry bill, which was carried by St. Rep. Chris Holbert and St. Sen. Greg Brophy.

About: Based in Colorado, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners is Colorado’s largest state-based gun lobby. It is a group solely dedicated to the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Our strategy is simple: don’t give an inch. Visit: www.rmgo.org

The legislation would have made Colorado a “permit optional” state for concealed carry, joining Vermont, Alaska, Arizona, and Wyoming. Despite overwhelming testimony that states with similar laws did not, in fact, see an increase in violence, Democrat Senators in the State Affairs Committee (Sens. Rollie Heath, Betty Boyd, and Bob Bacon) voted against the bill while GOP Sens. Kevin Grantham and Bill Cadman voted for the legislation.

Senator Greg Brophy told committee members that HB1205 would simply level the playing field for law-abiding citizen, but criminals really don’t care what the law says – and don’t seek permits in the first place. RMGO Executive Director Dudley Brown said that domestic violence prevention groups should support Constitutional Carry rather than oppose it, since the permit process itself is intimidating to many females who don’t want to be on lists and don’t normally think of themselves as gun advocates but might need the means to self defense in volatile situations. “Why should a woman who wants to defend herself from a stalker or violent ex-boyfriend be forced to acquire an expensive permit, just for the permission to protect herself?” said Brown.

accidental rather than intentional. When bodies are dumped away from crime scenes, particles picked up by bullets and transferred to a victim can tie the murder to a specific location.

Techniques Used to Track Ballistics in Criminal Justice

During autopsy, the use of entry and exit hole geometry enables forensic medical examiners to ascertain the position of a victim’s body when struck by a bullet. Generally, entry wounds are smaller than exit wounds and increase in size with higher caliber weapons. By comparing entry and exit wounds to gun caliber, investigators can establish the victim’s distance and angle from the shooter when the bullet made impact.

MAR 24, 2011 01:30P.M. Techniques Used to Track Ballistics in Criminal Justice By Marie Owens

The evolving sciences of bullet cytology and trajectory examination are important forensic techniques through which crime scene investigators can reconstruct a crime. Combined with forensic technology connecting a weapon to a particular person, the results of these tests can serve to confirm or eliminate suspects. However, the most important service offered by forensic evidence is in the trial stage, providing an attorney the capacity to not only prove or disprove witness testimony but to secure convictions for the guilty and exonerate the innocent.

AmmoLand Gun News Manasquan, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- Likely to be the first exposure most people had to forensics, the widely televised O.J. Simpson trial not only piqued public interest in criminal investigation, but its popularity also convinced many that this technology was ready for “prime time.”

By-line: Marie Owens works in security logistics. In her spare time she teaches a female self-defense course and studies law in Washington state.

Today, the growth in amateur fascination with forensics has inspired a variety of dramatic and reality television programs designed to feed this increasing public appetite. The most positive aspect of increased public awareness in forensics is that the laypeople that sit on juries during criminal trials no longer feel like they need to have a criminal justice degree to comprehend the implications and significance of expert testimony and evidence.

The technology used to test blood samples found at the murder scene in the Simpson case, and to identify the DNA of Amanda Knox on the knife used to kill Meredith Kercher have been standard practice in criminal investigation since 1985. However, in the early 1990s, the naissance of bullet cytology introduced advances in the ability to decipher ballistics evidence. By testing tissue cells found on bullets that pass through a body examiners can identify which organs were struck and determine whether a shooting victim’s injury was survivable or fatal, even without the presence of a body.

NEW MCM K1 Paintball Marker MAR 24, 2011 11:54A.M. NEW MCM K1 Paintball Marker

The determination of bullet trajectory is an important part of crime scene investigation and reconstruction. By measuring the angle of entry of projectiles found lodged in ceilings and walls, forensic examiners can conclude the location of the shooter when they fired the gun. The older method of verifying bullet trajectory is to insert a rod into the hole and the slant by which the rod protrudes from the hole determines angle of entry. The modern technique to determine trajectory employs laser beams, which are more accurate and easier to use over long distances. Similarly, investigators can also use technology to get a better understanding of whether the bullet ricocheted or not when the shot was fired. Bullet ricochet regards deviation of bullet trajectory following contact with an object. If proven a bullet struck the victim as a consequence of ricochet rather than aim, the shooting is deemed

Concealed Carry – Its Your Right

It is a huge mistake to think that any of the gun control measures on our books, or which have been proposed, deter criminals. Consider that in Mexico, in spite of a constitutional declaration of a right to have guns, there is only one gun store in the whole country — in Mexico City. If you manage to get a permit, it will be for a handgun of a fairly ineffective caliber, or for a limited selection of long guns. Then you can make your appointment and travel to Mexico City to finally get your gun.

Yet what dominates the news coming out of Mexico? Guns. And the ones used by the drug traffickers are not usually the ones available to the American public. But tens of thousands of fully automatic machine guns have gone missing from the Mexican military. And, strange as it may seem (sarcasm), the same planes and boats that are used to smuggle drugs also smuggle firearms. Gun Owners of America

More civilians were murdered in Juarez last year than civilians in Afghanistan. Right across the border in El Paso, the murder rate is enormously lower. Texans own guns, and many of them carry concealed.

Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- America has come a long way from its 17th century founding. Massachusetts and Virginia had laws requiring travelers to be armed. In Massachusetts, congregants had to be armed.

So, let’s get a grip on reality. Let’s remove the obstacles that impede the sovereign from arming himself where he chooses and when he chooses. It is the constitutional thing to do, after all.

That all changed, though, over the next couple of centuries when states began imposing massive amounts of gun control. These restrictions turned countless Americans into mandatory victims, and many innocent lives were lost as a result.

Larry Pratt is the executive director of Gun Owners of America (GOA). For more information, and to join Gun Owners of America, visit www.gunowners.org.

But now, we are ever so slowly inching our way back to removing the mountain of prohibitions on being armed in public. Prior to this year, three states had stopped requiring law-abiding citizens to first get a permit to carry firearms concealed in public. And now, legislators in Wyoming have added the Cowboy State to this growing list.

Constitutional carry is the term Gun Owners of America has applied to carrying firearms without getting prior approval from the government. It recognizes that the Second Amendment is serious when it says that our gun rights “shall not be infringed.” We hear statists say that all of our rights are subject to being balanced by the “interests” of the government. Such a view would have us forget that “We the People” are the boss, and the government works for us.

Concealed Carry – Its Your Right

According to the indictment, if a person buys a firearm from someone else but claims that he or she is the actual transferee/buyer of the listed firearm(s), the firearm acquisition is called a “straw purchase” and the conduct is called “lying and buying.” The indictment alleges that beginning in July 2010 and continuing through at least Nov. 2010, the defendants made false statements to a licensed dealer to illegally procure at least 10 firearms, that they intended to transfer to others.

MAR 24, 2011 10:42A.M. Federal Grand Jury Indicts Three Dallas-Area Men on Federal Firearms Charges Defendants Allegedly Made “Straw Purchases” in “Lying and Buying” to Illegally Acquire Firearms for Others.

The indictment also alleges that on Nov. 9, 2010, the Osorio brothers knowingly possessed 12 Romarm, Model Draco, 7.62×39 caliber pistols which had the serial numbers obliterated. An indictment is an accusation by a federal grand jury, and a defendant is entitled to the presumption of innocence unless proven guilty. However, if convicted, each count of acquiring a firearm from a licensed dealer by making a false or fictitious statement carries a maximum statutory sentence of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Upon conviction, the conspiracy count and the possession of a firearm with a removed or obliterated serial number, each carry a maximum statutory sentence of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

The Tri-Plex is a patent pending triple-projectile .38 special standard load cartridge containing three stacked conical projectiles which at close range deliver a 158 grain payload that reliably separates and tumbles upon entering tissue. This provides similar energy transfer and physiological effect to an expanded semi-wadcutter hollow point (SWCHP) bullet, but with significant improvements including a larger ballistic wound channel, greater hit probability, lower velocity and less recoil. This makes it ideal for use with the Palm Pistol and other short barreled self-defense firearms such as snub nosed revolvers and Bond Arms handguns. Principle findings, based on testing, were:
