CCRKBA To Seattle, Chicago: “How Are Those Gun Taxes Working For You?”

BELLEVUE, WA – Following the bloodiest January in Chicago in 16 years, a double homicide Jan. 26 in Seattle’s “Jungle” homeless camp and Wednesday’s shooting on a Metro bus, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is challenging both anti-gun cities to explain how their gun violence taxes have accomplished anything to reduce firearms-related violent crime.

At the same time, CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb also wants the backers of Initiative 594, passed 15 months ago in Washington state as a so-called “universal background check” gun control measure, to explain why their new law has failed to prevent teens and public transit gunmen from committing heinous acts. There have been no arrests or prosecutions under 594 despite claims that it has prevented more than 100 illegal purchases, he noted.

“Chicago’s body count for January was 51 dead and a lot more wounded,” Gottlieb observed. “Seattle is off to a rousing start as well with the double-murder at ‘The Jungle’ under I-5 and yesterday’s bus shooting. And let’s not overlook the other double homicide last month in which the victims were beaten to death, a crime that proves restrictive gun laws don’t stop murders because killers will find other ways to commit mayhem.”

Noting that the teenage suspects in the fatal Seattle shooting couldn’t legally carry or possess handguns, Gottlieb said this incident offers yet more evidence that I-594 was just “one more false promise of gun control.” There was no background check conducted in the acquisition of the guns allegedly carried by the teen suspects, and he noted that a police drug raid Tuesday in Burien turned up a stolen gun, which also wound up in the wrong hands, and “definitely no background check was conducted there,” he added.

Both the gun control initiative and the Seattle gun tax are being challenged in court, and a lawsuit has also been brought against the gun tax in Cook County, Illinois, which encompasses Chicago.

“Anti-gunners in Seattle and Chicago need to acknowledge that their gun control efforts aren’t part of the solution to violence, they’re part of the problem,” Gottlieb said. “They are pushed with lots of promise, but they’re quickly revealed to be all flash and no substance. They penalize honest citizens and don’t impress criminals. They lie, and people still die.” Read more

Deer With Upper Canines

February 4, 2016

Last December, Brad Wiley – QDMA committee member with the Upper Hudson River Valley Branch in New York – killed a big 4 1/2-year-old buck on the Otter Creek QDM Cooperative, of which he is a member. In this case, however, it wasn’t the age or the size of the antlers that made the buck such a unique trophy. It was the two upper canine teeth that Brad discovered on the deer’s skull.

Trulock’s New Boar Blaster Choke Tube

Trulock has come up with the new Boar Blaster™ Choke Tube, a 4-inch choke tube with .030 constriction specifically designed to produce the best and tightest possible 00 and 000 buckshot patterns you can get from any choke tube on the market today.

For the Boar Blaster™, they’ve come up with a new forcing cone that is different from any they’ve made before. It consists of 5 “steps” that constrict the diameter of the tube before the shot enters the parallel section of the tube. The result is tighter patterns than come from typical conical parallel interior chokes.

Although the Boar Blaster™ Choke Tube is new, Trulock did a great deal of testing on the range with this choke before releasing it. They found that the new Boar Blaster™ Choke produced tighter patterns at 40 yards with every brand of 00/000 buckshot they tested – 25 percent tighter at 40 yards.

Aside from wanting to make the best possible product, Trulock Choke Tubes takes such pains on product development and testing because they fully stand behind their products, with a guarantee that effectively eliminates risk for the customer.

If you buy a choke from them and aren’t completely satisfied with your purchase you can return it for an exchange or refund within 60 days from the date of purchase. Trulock’s also has a lifetime warranty on all choke tubes. If your tube fails for any reason you can return it and the choke will be replaced at no charge.

The Trulock family wants you to get the right choke for your needs, and has the customer service to back it up. If you’re planning on a hog hunt or a deer hunt with 00 or 000 buckshot this year, you owe it to yourself to check out the Boar Blaster™ Choke Tube on the Trulock Choke Tubes website at www.trulockchokes.com Be sure to watch the video of Scott Trulock patterning the Boar Blaster choke – it gives you a good idea of what the choke is like and the patterns it produces.
