Mr. Completely has the results of the March e-Postal match up. Mr. C smoked me by 7 points in the rimfire scoped category, so I took second there, but I took first in centerfire open sights. This clearly means we don’t have enough shooters. I hope you’ll consider shooting Mr. C’s April match. Congratulations to BillL for winning the match overall.

If Only It Were a Joke
This is some creative wishful photoshopping. Unfortunately, I think the butt of the joke is dead serious.
Congratulations to Blackfork
Blackfork got one of his photos used on the cover of USA Shooting Sports magazine.
UPDATE: You know, that’s a lot of rifles in that picture that we’re told have no sporting use.
Alaska Carry Removed from Montana Bill
Dave Hardy reports that the requirement for removing the need for concealed carry permits in incorporated areas in Montana has been removed, and the bill remains as an ordinary castle doctrine bill.
There are activists in Pennsylvania who are exceedingly impatient about this issue, and regularly deride pro-gun politicians and pro-gun groups for not pushing it harder. Alaska/Vermont style carry, or carry without the need of a license, has been tried in New Hampshire, Wyoming, and Montana now, without success. If we can’t get Alaska/Vermont carry passed in Montana, which already has no restrictions on carry outside of towns and cities, how the hell are we passing it in Pennsylvania? Sometimes the votes just aren’t there, and yelling louder isn’t going to make it so.
Yes, It’s April Fools
Back to our normally scheduled blogging shortly, even though I’m having so much fun with German cat blogging. Took four years of German in high school. I barely remember German grammar, and only remember simple words, and can construct only simple sentences with any degree of correctness. Haven’t cracked open the German English dictionary I got for receiving the German medal since I went to Germany in 2004.
Yes, somewhere in one of the boxes in my attic is a large medal, meant to wear around my neck at high school graduation, that celebrates my achievements in German. And I’ve used it exactly once (my German, not the medal. The medal was dorky even for graduation), for a week in 2004, in Munich.
Die Jagerkatze
Viele Menschen jagen mit Hunden. Nicht viele Menschen erkennen dass Katzen sind auch Jäger. Richtig gelehrt, Katzen töten können kleine Nagetiere. Sie lassen sie auf Ihre Haustür, in Ihre Schuhe, oder in Ihrem Bett. Aber einmal getötet, sie machen einen leckeren Eintopf. Ihre Katze is stolz auf seine Beute. Respektieren Ihre Katze, und essen Sie die Jagdbeute.
Aber Katzen können sich selbst Beute.
Bitte, Katzen und Pythons mischen nicht.
Die Einführung von Amadeus
Amadeus ist mein Lieblings Katze.
Bitte entschuldigen Sie mich, mein Deutsch ist nicht gut. Ich liebe Amadus, aber er ist ein sehr schlechtes Katze. Er genießt zerstören Rollen Toilettenpapier, und wachte er mich in der Morgendämmerung. Amadeus hat nicht mit mir lebte für mehrere Jahre. Er gehört zu einer ehemaligen Freundin. Bitter is allergisch auf Katzen, so kann ich immer einen im Haus mehr. Wie traurig.
Die Flederkatze
Effective today we will be changing the name of the blog.  As soon as I have all the graphics worked out, you’ll notice the title change. I have decided that I am tired of blogging about guns. Yes. From this point forward, we will blog about cats. Not only will we blog about cats, but we will blog about them in German, in an attempt to capitalize on an under served market; German cat lovers. Now sometimes, we might blog about cats with guns, as in this example here. The new name of the blog will be “Die Flederkatze,” a creative and witty variation on Wagner’s “Die Fledermaus.” The tagline will be “Jede Katze ist wie eine Schneeflocke.”
I hope you all enjoy.
