I wonder how long until the government issues a subpoena for all FPC member records, including those who have joined since the temporary injunction was issued.2 points

That's the important bit right? I do wish they would drop all of the F-bombs they have on the site and their merch though. The grabbers already see us through a certain lens. I would prefer not to feed it when possible.2 points

Well, despite the lack of account management section, they certainly aren't short on pages to donate money: https://secure.anedot.com/firearmspolicycoalition/fpc?amount=25&source_code=donate https://secure.anedot.com/firearmspolicycoalition/march2023_joingaw?sc=joingaw https://secure.anedot.com/firearmspolicycoalition/join_the_fpc_grassroots_army?sc=joinfpc https://secure.anedot.com/firearms-policy-foundation/quick_donate?sc=quick_donate Also, don't fall into the trap of signing up without paying (yes you can find that along your adventure). That only puts you on the email distro, despite the site saying you're a supporter. The support page seems to have some better details, it even has a renew link, which seems to be the same as the join link. https://www.firearmspolicy.org/support Note for anyone who may do work for FPC: Please, please, please go hire a UX person for a few months.2 points

I voted to legalize pot in Washington, thinking that doing so would remove the criminal element from the trade. It didn't work that way, though, as illegal pot became easier to get and less risky for the sellers. The legal pot is available EVERYWHERE. There are stores in every small town, so if a person wants to be legal they can go and get their dope there. But that dope is taxed, and the business have overhead that makes the legal stuff considerably more expensive than the illegal stuff. So the illegal stuff is still there, and arguably more popular than ever. You can safely carry black market dope without fear of arrest since it's indistinguishable from the legal stuff. The instances of driving under the influence increased significantly in Washington, too, after marijuana was legalized. If I had it to vote on again I would vote against legalization. That law of unintended consequences is a big one.2 points

I love Sako's. That is why I bought this even though I don't shoot this caliber. Since I never shoot this I though I would pass it on to someone who would actually use it. It is a 1967 L61R Sako Finnbear in 338 Win Mag. Overall it is in great shape. The bore is nice and shiny. Another reason I bought this is because it had all of the original paperwork from when it was first ordered. Just made it a little more cool in my eyes. It also comes with period scope bases and a box of Hornady Precision Hunter ammo. Not really looking for trades right now but you never know. $1300 $10001 point

I went to shoot there twice (under both owners) and it was probably the worst indoor range I've been to. Both times I left coughing and wound up with a respiratory issue because the air scrubbing was terrible. Hate to see any small biz go out like that, but I wasn't a fan.1 point

18” LaRue .223 Wylde chamber (5.56/.223) billet AR. All LaRue parts except for grip (BCM, original available) CH (Radian Raptor) and castle nut (PWS ratcheting style). (I changed those parts out, rest was built by the LaRue crew.) Perfect base rifle for an SPR build. These are some of the most accurate AR-15s on the market. I’ve only put a couple of mags through her. I got REALLY into retro rifles and NVGs after getting her. So she’s never gotten a whole lot of use because of that. You’re gonna get a very clean, accurate and all but brand new rifle. $1500 located in Jackson.1 point

Good news. FPC is good people. Go get their life membership, they earned it. https://www.firearmspolicy.org/fpc-statement-regarding-membership short recap: LAS VEGAS, NV (May 30, 2023) — Today, Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) issued a statement regarding membership: On Sunday, May 28, 2023, the Board of Directors of Firearms Policy Coalition made a number of formal changes to the membership structure of the organization. First, the Board granted an Individual Membership to all individual monetary donors of FPC who have supported FPC’s activities through financial contribution(s) of twenty U.S. Dollars ($20) or more from June 1, 2022, through May 31, 2023, inclusive. Those memberships will have an effective date of June 1, 2022, and an expiration date of December 31, 2023, unless the Individual Member renews the granted membership on or before the end of 2023. This granted membership will ensure that all individuals who supported the work of the organization in the period with a financial contribution of $20 or more are officially recognized by FPC as an Individual Member. FPC will update its membership records accordingly on or about June 1, 2023, and then send a message confirming the granted membership status to all such individuals by email as soon as possible. This one-time donor membership program will not affect the membership term of current FPC members.1 point

So once more history repeats itself. I remember in the late eighties when a local agency of LEO’s in my area accused the same of the still new Glock 17. (I’m going to be intentionally vague to a degree as I was present myself for elements of this). An officer had had an “accidental discharge” during a traffic stop with a young lady that he had pulled over on a lonely lakeside road nearby at night. This incident resulted in her receiving a fatal head-wound. The agency involved sued Glock and actually brought Gaston all the way over to testify to his design. (Super-win for me as I got to meet and spend time with one of my heroes). During the course of the trial we went so far as to make 3 drops into a parking garage from an over-looking 16 story building with a sample model loaded G17 for evidentiary purposes. Those were just the official attempts to create a discharge. There were PLENTY of other informal ones. The gun could not be made to accidentally fire despite efforts that got absurd by any standard. Gaston came out rightfully smelling like a rose and further cementing Glock’s patented safety system world wide, with history even citing our studies as further proof in design safety. It seems like it was about a year later that it came out that the young lady involved in the incident was an ex-girlfriend of the officer involved.1 point

If you were a cop, and you knew that admitting to a negligent discharge would result in a suspension or loss of your job, wouldn't you blame that lousy gun and/or the administration that forced you to carry it?1 point

I have an Sig p 320 it stays loaded in a nightstand every night. For years it has never fired by itself. A lot of people like to blame a weapon for their inability to handle a gun correctly Sig had a voluntary recall for the drop problem. And newer models don’t have that issue I happen to be at a range where a person shot himself in the leg. he of course blamed the gun and range. Range had cameras when reviewing it was clear he had attempted to holster the weapon with his finger on the trigger1 point
