Rifles and shotguns are fun I suppose but I’m really looking forward to getting my restricted firearms license in January with a girlfriend of ours (still trying to talk Jo-Anne into joining us for the safety training and licensing course). That and getting a Bowflex (and actually using it) are my new year’s resolutions. And singing louder in church. And helping conservatives get elected.
But guns first!
There are so many cool handguns I want to fire, and our columnist Mike Adams inspired me to get that restricted firearms license. See his latest column (appearing here at 9:01 PM Pacific time tonight) for his latest review of guns he loves and yearns for, and which he’s resolved to buy (at the conservative rate of one per month) in 2008. I can’t wait to try some.
His January purchase is going to be a Beretta .32 Auto Tomcat. He writes: ““This is a great little gun to purchase if you are having trouble finding a gun that will fit inside the fanny pack you use when you are jogging. Of course, I don’t use a fanny pack when I am jogging but after I buy this sweet little Beretta I’ll have a good excuse to buy one.”
I still wouldn’t wear a fanny pack but that’s just me. And anyway, unfortunately, we can’t carry guns around like they can in most U.S. states, and so many are restricted and not legal here. So luckily, a fanny pack is a moot point.
I like his pick for February: A Walther 380 Auto, pictured at above-left. He seems to imply it’s a chick gun, as the professor writes: “This year I plan to adopt a nineteen year old girl who still has two years of college left (at Bucknell University). Her boyfriend is pretty big but he’s often busy studying for medical school. So I plan to buy her this stainless 380 for personal protection. It is both an accurate and a reliable weapon. Plus, she thinks it’s “cute.””
A “cute” chick gun or not, it’s stainless steel (suitable for Vancouver!) and I’d love to blast off a few rounds with it.
Anyway I hope you all have a safe and fun new year’s eve, and I wish you the best for 2008. Mine’s going to be a blast!
Bang bang!
P.S.
for those of you who are for banning guns and restricting others from owning them using every imaginable impediment in your nanny-state arsenal, you still have the option of applying this highly unrecommended PTBC Sticker for Liberals to your front doors:
Remember though—I highly recommend you
DON’T place one of these on your front door.
