A national gun rights organization that says its mission is to "help responsible Americans keep their loved ones safe" is launching a super PAC in its push for concealed carry reciprocity, in which a gun owner's concealed carry permit or license is valid in states beyond the state where it was issued.

The proposal allows so-called open carry of guns for people who undergo training and background checks to carry guns hidden under a jacket or other clothing.

The Supreme Court’s decision to take up a New York gun case is sparking optimism for a national concealed carry reciprocity law.
“That certainly gives us momentum,” said North Carolina Rep. Richard Hudson, author of the national reciprocity legislation, H.R. 38.
This week, the court, in its first gun case in over 12 years, said it would hear a challenge to a New York law that allows residents to carry a concealed handgun only after proving a special need.
Opponents said the hurdle essentially bars people from getting a license. Several states allow concealed carry, and some don’t even require a license.

U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- With the rise of compact and subcompact pistols for personal defense use, the big question for many was: “When will tactical lights get smaller?”
Advances in tactical weapon-mounted lights (WML) have been on the rise. Today’s shooter can choose from a multitude of options with brighter Lumens or the integration of lasers, but sometimes, you simply need a light that will fit without the excessive bulk.
While writing a few articles about sub-compact pistols equipped with accessory rails, I had difficulty fitting a WML. In one case the single rail slot was positioned in such a way that I had to get ultra-creative to mount a light. It turned out fine with some creative building, but I thought there has to be a better way.

We were introduced to Kim Petters, a U.S. Air Force veteran who developed PTSD but found relief with Delaware’s medical marijuana program. Due to federal law 18 U.S.C. 922 (g), however, legal users of cannabis can not be legal owners of firearms. Petters, and others in similar situations, are faced with the difficult decision of choosing protection or pain relief. Dr. Corey Burchman, a Navy veteran in New York City, believes CBD can be used as an alternative to opioids, noting that owning a gun is allowed for users of other prescribed forms of pain relief.
