    Glasshole Operators Will Stream Rifle Kill Shots To Google Glass

    TrackingPoint is so cool, I love it:

    I can see it now… I’m just about to pull the trigger on a Taliban head shot, and my girlfriend sends me a video of a dog doing something funny and I LOL… Taliban scum hears me and takes cover.

    How long until Google implements “hunting / shooting recognition” and disables google glass’ use with the Tracking Point rifles.  I wouldn’t run it past them.  They banned google ads on my site and most other gun bloggers sites for various reasons (mine was “violence”).

    All the info is available over at TrackingPoint‘s website.

    Thoughts?  Would operate with?

    Surprise Mountain Bike Robbery At Gunpoint

    Whole event captured on a GoPro.  This went down in South Africa:

    Malcolm Fox was cycling on a trail with a GoPro camera strapped to his helmet when an armed man ran towards him and ordered him off his bike.  Fox can be seen climbing off as two more men approach, before making off with the bicycle and phone.

    Full story – Concealed Nation

    I love these types of posts because it’s when all the criminal scum sympathizers come out of the woodwork after I say my usual: It’s too bad this didn’t end with 3 dead bodies, and the mountain biker using his cellphone to call the police.  Nah you guys are right though, what those robbers need is to be caught and rehabilitated! *smh*

    StrikeMark-GoPro-Glock-MountThoughts?  Spandex carry is kind of tough, but I suppose the guy could have had a tactical fannypack on.

    Magnesium Shotgun Load

    Demolition Ranch puts some science on it:

    My first experience with magnesium was when I had one of those fire starters when I was in grade 9. I brought it over to my friends house where we spent like 30minutes making a big pile about twice that size on his math textbook.  We then sparked it, thinking it would be kind of boring… nope… huge flash, lots of smoke and a big hole in his textbook.

    Demolition-Ranch-ENDO4:52 – Honestly I had no idea those 5 things on the Demolition Ranch shirt he always wears are all shotgun shells.  I guess it makes sense in hindsight, but they definitely could use some more detail.

    Thoughts?  Anything else besides magnesium that looks cool loaded in a shotgun shell?

    The Audacity Of Handgun Bicep Carry

    Running out of places to carry huh?  Look no further than bicep carry:

    Arms-Band-Bicep-Carry

    Arms-Band-Bicep-Carry-Details

    *FLLLLLex* Gun show loop hole?  Will it fit a Deagle brand Deagle?

    A company called Arms Band makes and sells this holster for $35.

    Every time I make fun of anything on here there are always a handful of people who think it’s a great idea.  Not only would this method print like crazy unless you’re wearing a shirt a few sizes larger and longer than your usual size (unless you normally dress like a tent), but you’ll also be flagging everyone pretty much every second after you leave the house.  Oh lawd don’t even get me started on the things that could go wrong during the draw.  At least the manufacturer acknowledges the dangers of the holster on the safety precautions page.

    Developing a safe draw:

    I can’t find a holster review (if one exists) on the USCCA website because it’s such a mess of proportions only attainable by a “marketing company”.  If there is one please let me know in the comments so I can link it.

    Thoughts?  Would bicep carry?  I still think colon carry is the way to go if you’re really looking to fly under the radar.

    Making A 1911 Pistol

    Talking Lead goes to Maximus Arms to check out the process of making a 1911 from scratch, and to have some fun:

    I like Talking Lead because they don’t take themselves too seriously.

    3:20 – MMMMM lost wax casting

    5:38 – For a company I’ve never heard of, they sure look like they are doing well in the 1911 game.  I find this surprising because I don’t know anyone with a non major brandname 1911.

    Colt-M191119:57 – This guy better never show up to work hungover or tired.  That day would be his last.

    I really had no idea there was such much dirty hands on labor involved in making 1911s.
