We went to the May IDPA match at Prescott Action Shooters south of Prescott, AZ. We had great weather, lots of fun, good company.

Phoenix PD patrolling neighborhood near 24th Drive and Union Hills after 11-year-old girl was almost abducted on way to school, according to PD. A man came out, saw what was happening, knocked the suspect down and pulled a gun on him. Suspect ran.

Once again, More Guns = Less Crime

Interestingly, this happened a few miles from where I lived in Glendale AZ in the ’90s. Phoenix and Glendale are adjacent cities.

Once again, an armed citizen uses a firearm in self defense. Think a 79 year old woman would have a chance without a gun?!?

What do you do with your handgun when you need to use the restroom?

I was at Gunsite in Pauldin, Az recently and saw this clever device to hold a handgun while using the restroom. It’s a board with two dowels protruding, one for a .45 caliber barrel and one for a 9mm (0.355 inches) barrel.
When using the restroom, place your handgun on the holder. When finished, retrieve and reholster.
That’s my first generation Glock 19 demonstrating how to use this device BTW

Chicago police say at least 11 people were shot, including three who died, in a three-hour span on the city’s South and West sides.

How’s that radical gun control working for you, Chicago??
