Carrying a Gun Across State Lines

This from Fox News and John Lott after the House passed national reciprosity for concealed carry:

For decades, treating licenses for guns like those  for cars was something that gun control advocates wanted.

In his 2000 presidential campaign, Al  Gore promised: “We require a license to drive a car in this nation in order  to keep unsafe drivers off the road. As president, I will fight for a national  requirement that every state issue photo licenses [for handgun buyers]. We  should require a license to own a handgun so people who shouldn’t have them,  can’t get them.”

Buried for 70 Years, Browning Machine Gun Roars to Life

This is a fantastic story (and very well detailed) for Veterans Day and a testament to the quality machining of the Brits during World War II.  After touring the Browning museum in Ogden, Utah this past August, I am not surprised that this recovered relic would fire after being buried since the Big One.  The quality and ingenuity of the Browing family is beyond belief.  If you ever get a chance to stop by the museum, do so.  You’ll never regret it.
