This doesn't really count as a gun show schwag photo, as I came home with this stuff from the yearly meeting of the Arizona Citizen's Defense League - basically, Arizona's answer to the NRA.
It was a lot of fun. There I was, in a big ballroom full of 400+ people, where pretty much everyone was strapped....and I never felt safer! Take that, you hysterics who claim that more guns equal more crime and mayhem.
Good food, good companionship (Alan Korwin was there), interesting speakers....one of the better lunches I've had!
David T. Hardy, the author of "I'm from the government, and I'm here to kill you", is a lawyer who's been involved with Second Amendment cases since the 1970's. Very interesting fella. He's of the opinion that the government granting itself legal immunity from any punishment for slaughtering their own citizens is not a good idea. Y'know, in the long run. I'd tend to agree, but then, I'm one of those common citizens that's liable to get knocked off, with no consequences for my killer (as long as he has a badge of some sort). So I'm hardly unbiased - and neither should you be, my fellow peasants.

considering I've nearly been shot by a well-meaning cop at least once that I can recall in recent history i have to agree with you on that one.hole joke is the cop was doing her job and was technically concerned lol.she transferred here from one of the worst game parts of Canada too a little hole in the wall firm town.she was used to any time she got out of her squad car she would immediately on strapped her gun personally remove it from the holster and clock it while still partially in the holster. my car was on the side of the road with the door personally open and it immediately triggered her instinct that somebody had possibly muged me and the poor girl had her gun personally out and was basically walking along the shoulder of the road trying to find my ass dead in a ditch.i was out of breath where this guy's little dog had run out in front of me and i had swerved to avoid hitting the dog and left the door half open on my car ran down the street chasing the guys dog picked it up and walked about a block or so uphill to the guys house taking the dog home and by the time I got back to the car I was in no position to go yelling at her where she was walking along the ditch looking for me lol.i walked up behind her and for whatever reason she didn't hear me and when I tapped her on the shoulder I nearly got shot lol.i probably scare the crap out of her more so that I was quite cavalier about it and immediately identified that she must've recently been transferred from one of a couple cities and that always made her A little paranoid that I immediately recognized where she was from by the way she behaved in certain situations.nice girl but had a pretty quick temper and was always really quick to on holster her firearm or her nightstick usually the kind of behavior you only get from a Canadian RCMP officer that's been in one other rapper cities here for too long. She was part of a antigang unit and it kind of spooked her that I immediately picked up on that.
the bit with the magazine about being safe at home with the little picture of the guy holding the gun and the flashlight every time I see a image like that I keep imagining it some smow who was sleeping with a gun under his pillow and its hes wife or other family member that woke him up going to the bathroom or going to the fridge and at this particular moment they are crapping whatever they're wearing;) it was a gag in one of the police Academy movies back in the day where the fridge got shot up at tackle varies as I think it was him and one of his kids or him and his wife and thar father was visiting and was getting a snack from the fridge at two in the morning .i have no problem with people owning guns it's just always that particular image of somebody sitting in bed holding a gun usually with a flashlight mounted on the gun that draws this secondary image of the light being shined on somebody in a bathrobe going to the bathroom or carrying something to eat lol.
i am all for people having the right to have firearms and fact of the matter is a lot of our gun problems here in Canada are actually due to the way the laws are set up.you pretty much have to be a criminal just to properly protect yourself which is a bit ridiculous! You can't legally have a bulletproof vest here in Canada was a law they passed a few years ago and the joke is 80% of the civilians who had a bulletproof vest are cabdrivers at that point!do too tham being shot and stabed throw the seet.

Yep everybody in the room had a gun, and it was Dodge City all over again, right?

Ah -- you scored a copy of Marshall's 101 Classic Firearms. I saw one at a show in Massachusetts last month (gun shows are effectively illegal in Connecticut, now) and the vendor only accepted cash. Okay, I went to the ATM and withdrew $40. When I got back, he said, no, he now wanted $80 for it. Doubled in five minutes? "Have 'em make your casket a little bigger so they can bury you with it, 'cause nobody's gonna buy at it that price." I'll buy it directly from Dillon (the 'Blue Press' folks) for $30.
