The Obama has successfully screwed over every US industry, but one. So now he's going after the last remaining light, the firearms industry. And due to the stupidity of our congress critters and those that elected them, especially him, our last glimmer of success will have the flame extinguished.
The only effect will be another hit to the economy. Maybe some day the public will notice that the emperor has no clothes. Naturally we need to pull our heads out of our collective asses first.

On The Edge
Talked to several liberty gun owners at work today. I was wondering how they thought the new gun restrictions would go. Every one has resolved themselves to the belief that we will soon have more liberty stripped from us by big Gov. And every one is wishing they would go so far as to require registration or confiscation. Most are spoiling for a fight, a reason to rebel. The nitpicking has gotten old, so it seems.

Range Report CZ 712 Utility
The ATI adjustable stock is well worth the money, especially the recoil pad. The combination of being gas operated semi-automatic and the recoil pad makes the 12 Ga 00 buck feel more like a 20 Ga hunting load, and significantly tames the recoil from slugs.
It functioned flawlessly with light target loads of #8 and standard 00 buck loads but for some reason didn't particularly like the Win Ranger reduced recoil 00 buck stuff. After a few boxes of shells I'll try them again. Funny thing, the reduced recoil didn't feel much different than the standard loads to me.
With the IC choke installed the #8 pattern at about 50 feet spread all over a full sized silhouette target and the 00 buck pattern was about 24 inches. Also, slugs hit about a foot low and left at 50 yards. The weather turned bad so I didn't try any other choke tubes.
A buddy talked me into trying one of his 3" 12 Ga slugs. Even being a semi and with the good recoil pad, the felt recoil was intense. I won't be buying any of those. I'm not particulerly recoil sensitive, but my bad right shoulder can only take so much.

Correction - the cylinder bore choke tube was installed.

Fun Tomorrow
Unless something unusual happens I'm off to the range tomorrow. Hope to do some patterning with the CZ712 and then some 200 yard work with the 6.5 Swedish Mauser. Meeting a friend that has a new, for him, 30-06.
The CZ712 Utility is OK as is for defense use, but I still plan on a couple of minor modifications. I want to add a 2 round magazine extension, sling, and a co-worker suggested ghost ring sight. I have some light load shot for target, 00Buck and slugs to try. Hopefully I'll find a single choke tube that works for all, but I doubt it.

Confirmed
A little taste.
The excuse that people will start shooting each other is also plain and silly. So it is our politicians saying that our society is full of incapable adolescents who can never be trusted? Then, please explain how we can trust them or the police, who themselves grew up and came from the same culture?
No it is about power and a total power over the people. . . . . . Do not be fooled by a belief that progressives, leftists hate guns. Oh, no, they do not. What they hate is guns in the hands of those who are not marching in lock step of their ideology.
If you're reading this you most likely are a pro-liberty gun owner like me, so this essay is nothing new. It's nice to occasionally get confirmation of what you know.

Pathetic
So the people, especially one particular, has created the largest yearly and absolute debt in the history of this country, and now is trying to make us believe he (they) are heroes for trying to reduce the debt. And their efforts are mostly through increasing the legalized theft. They certainly wouldn't want their empire to deflate any would they. If it wasn't so sad and pathetic I'd laugh.
Squirts for Two
The holidays in the Trajectory family has been good, for the most part. Christmas eve with the eldest and grand kids was enjoyable, but had some negative effects. Didn't know that a stomach issue had been moving through that household. A couple days later it hit the Boss, followed by hitting me. Explosions from both ends of the anatomy. At least it lasted only about 24 hours and didn't hit us both at the same time.
