Louisiana: Constitutional Carry Bill Passes House

Knife Rights supported Louisiana Constitutional Carry bill, HB 131, which includes knives, was passed by the House by a bipartisan vote of 71-39. All “weapons,” including knives, are covered by the bill. The bill now moves to the Senate.

We thank the primary sponsors for ensuring this bill covers all weapons, including knives.

Six Reasons to Own a Ruger 10/22

There are only a few guns that one might consider truly ubiquitous. The 1911 is certainly one. The Glock 19 has rocketed up onto this list over the last couple decades. Smith & Wesson’s J-Frame revolver is probably, or definitely, there. And, of course, the AR-15.

The 10/22 rifle from Ruger is, without a doubt, on this list. And just like with the 1911, the AR-15 and the Glock 19, it is one of the few firearms that has given birth to an ecosystem of aftermarket accessory companies.
