"Choosing the Perfect Carry Gun" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-14 04:55:27

It seems as though I spend a great deal of time either on the phone returning emails or otherwise not being productive to talk to people about the “best concealed carry gun.”  It’s as though people think that I possess some secret knowledge about what is truly the best carry gun on the planet.  That is just silly.  What works for one person will not work for another.  I have however determined a way to steer my customers toward making the decision for themselves so that their selection works for them not for the latest piece of firearms marketing they have seen.  Here is how to do it: 1.  People have laughed when I asked them what their goal was in carrying a concealed weapon.  Obviously a part of your personal goal is self-protection.  There are other aspects of your goal to consider with respect to how a particular weapon will work for you.  Have you considered your basic style of dress and how deeply you will need to conceal your weapon?  If not part of your goal needs to be “to be able to maintain weapon concealment without outer clothing such as a coat or to maintain weapon concealment while wearing a light coat etc.”  Or if you live in a very warm climate you may want something like “to be able to carry a pistol concealed and comfortably while wearing my swim trunks…and the pistol should not be overly bothered by occasional salt water exposure.” Another aspect of your goal to consider is knockdown power.  If your goal is to be able to use a pistol to distract or wound (or possibly kill) an attacker a.22 LR will do the job nicely.  If your goal is to make sure an assailant is instantly stopped in their tracks a larger caliber will be needed.  The rule of thumb to follow is:  “Shoot the largest cross-sectional diameter caliber loaded as hot as you can handle.”  Bullet diameter and velocity are the two largest determinants in a given caliber’s ability to inflict significant wounds to an attacker. So first define your goal.  Mine would read “to carry a light weight moderately powerful absolutely reliable handgun in all carry circumstances with minimal need for open carry due to weather conditions or clothing restrictions.” Are you trying to defend your life at your high-risk convenience store job?  Or is the pistol for your nightstand safe?  Try to imagine every permutation of how where when and why you will carry this pistol. This goal statement will give you a good idea as to the probable size and caliber of your weapon as well as any special durability needs you may require of it. 2.  Does this pistol fit me?  Does it feel good in my hand?  I do not know nor do I have any way to measure that.  Try many different pistols.  Take your time.  Try different sizes of the same model.  Do not forget about revolvers.  Try EVERYTHING.  When it fits you you’ll know it.  The sights will align easily.  The balance will feel perfect.  The grip will be the perfect size.  It will feel like an extension of your body.  When that type of fit happens you will know exactly what I mean.  If you have tried every handgun on the market and have yet to find one that fits. I cannot help you.  Keep trying or switch to pepper spray. In my opinion most brand name pistols are  adequately reliable for a self-defense pistol.  If it’s a $139 super-value Jennings or Hi-Point you should probably pass.  Any major brand of pistol will meet basic reliability and safety standards.  Just make sure you are familiar with the type of firearm you are buying and that you pay at least $300 for a new one.  That limitation will weed out pretty much all the low quality cheapies.  I usually suggest that people stay with known brands such as Glock. Springfield. Beretta. Ruger. Sig. H&K etc. It does not matter what Guns and Ammo writes about the newest most reliable most accurate pistol that has just hit the market.  If you cannot shoot it accurately and effectively it is nothing more than a moderately interesting paperweight.  You must be able to hit your target.  If you cannot shoot accurately and safely please do not carry a pistol.  I HIGHLY recommend that you attend a formal combat pistol training program.  For this purpose. Front Sight in Las Vegas. NV has my endorsement.  A.  John came into the shop and asked for a.40 S&W pistol recommendation for a carry gun.  He is fairly large has been in the military and has been shooting for most of his life.  He works as a stock broker and is rarely caught without a shirt tie and coat.  He wants it to be fairly small and light.   What’s the recommendation? This is the easiest one - anything.  Due to his familiarity with firearms he will be  (or should be) capable of safely carrying pretty much anything.  Since he wants it to be fairly small that limits the choices.  He wound up purchasing a Glock 23. B.  Susie came in with her husband Buford.  Buford wanted his little honey to be protected so he wanted to buy her a 4″ .357 Magnum.  Susie has refused to shoot a gun after being forced to fire Buford’s.300 Win Mag at the range.  She’s small and petite and really does not want to carry a gun but will get one just to placate her husband.  She left with a.22 double action revolver. C.  Bob came in with the latest copy of “Guns and Weapons for Law Enforcement” tucked under his arm.  He wanted the latest H&K USP SOCOM that was written about in the magazine.  He’s had some firearm experience but equates the needs of a police SWAT team to his own personal protection needs.  He has plenty of money and wants to be able to talk about what he has purchased at the range with his buddies to show that he’s “in the know.”  Despite my best efforts he left after ordering an H&K USP (not the SOCOM though…had to have enough $ to afford the tactical light and laser sight). D.  Diane came without a clear idea of what she wanted and asked for some suggestions.  She needed a pistol she could carry on road trips and occasionally in her purse.  She thought a 9mm would be a good weapon based on what she has read.  She has basic firearms proficiency.  She wound up getting a Sig P230.380 ACP. Everyone is different when it comes to pistols.  Many people have no idea what they need or what they can handle.  Some people buy a particular pistol simply because it is new and different.  Whatever your reason for seeking a new pistol ask yourself the four questions listed above.  Listen to your answers and let them guide you in the selection process.  Do not worry about which caliber has better “stopping power” or “terminal ballistics.”  If you cannot get off a few well aimed shots it won’t matter what the stopping power is.  Do not worry about tactical lights laser sights or customization.  All the tricked out gadgets are great but they are not the core attributes you should consider. Will the pistol fit your goal?  Can you conceal it properly?  Is it going to be comfortable to carry under your Long John Silver’s uniform?  CAN YOU SHOOT IT ACCURATELY? So now that you have carefully considered your four questions and you have a clear goal statement give me a call and we’ll talk specifics! And I KNOW that despite what I have written. I will still be asked for some specific weapon recommendations so I’ve listed mine here.  These are the weapons that I either own or would like to own: You should remind spouses that they shouldn’t just come in and purchase a handgun for their spouse (especially if she’s a much smaller gal)…. firearms are very personal and if they don’t fit in our hands (i e women) then we won’t want to use them we’ll be “afraid” of them etc….. Women should ALWAYS come in with their spouse (if the spouse is the one purchasing it) to make sure it is a gun she will 1) want. 2) like the feel of it in her hand. 3) use! Afterall a man wouldn’t think of walking into a lingerie store and purchasing a bra/panty set without knowing what she likes and what size she is… cuz’ trust me if my hubby came home with a XXXL and I’m size XL…. I’d be pretty upset! I do not recommend night sights for the general pistol user because they require too high a degree of training to use effectively. In a dark shooting encounter unless you practice daily with your night sights the chore of trying to align them in darkness will make your (hopefully highly honed) bright light shooting skills moot. The average person will spend too much time trying to align the night sights rather than acquiring the front sight and banging a shot off at the attacker. With proper practice a basic pistol user will be able to effectively use a regularly sighted pistol in semi-darkness with ease. If it’s so dark that you cannot see the barest hint of your sights how could you possibly see your attacker well enough to fire a well aimed shot? That’s my take on it and I’m sure there are those who will disagree but that’s ok too.

"Review: Rangemaster Basic Personal Protection Course" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-04-08 01:47:17

I’ve desire desired to get some additional handgun training at but money was tight when I was unemployed and I couldn’t justify the expense. I’ve now been gainfully employed for nine months but haven’t gotten around to signing up. Turns out that I undergo to audit (for free) the (basically a TN concealed-carry handgun safety cover) before I can take the next level. Tracie wanted to get some basic education about the use of a handgun as did another couple who I’ll have in mind to as Bob and Jill for the sake of their privacy. We left Jackson at about 7:15 thinking we were giving ourselves enough measure to get to Rangemaster in Memphis. Unfortunately half a dozen wrecks in the area plus heavy come down caused merchandise along 40 and 240 to grind to a stop. We called the range about 10 minutes before the start of the class to let them know that the four of us were planning to be there but were snarled in merchandise. We arrived about 20 minutes after the class was supposed to start and were rushed into the classroom where the other 17 students and Tom Givens were waiting for us. Givens was visibly frustrated that the categorise was already behind schedule. I felt pretty awful about it but there wasn’t much I could have done. The next classes are in the evening so leaving earlier shouldn’t be a problem. About six of the eight hours we were there were spent in the classroom. The cover seemed to go the description for the most part but little or no time was given to “Awareness tools” or “Protective tactics”. Givens told me while we were alone during a end that he figures most folks absorb less than 25% of the information presented the first measure they go through the class the implication being that I should be learning new things this measure around from sitting in the approve. I didn’t depart him but the fact was that I didn’t learn much anything new from the class though it was very good to hear it from a different perspective and to hit the books that most of my thought processes in carrying a weapon were on the right track. I imagine that I was a special case having been so interested in firearms and tactics from early on that I sat riveted during my categorise and devoured as much reading material as I could on the topics. Givens told us throughout the class that completing this course though it will technically qualify you to receive a TN handgun displace permit will in no way even mouth to alter you for the realities of the use of that handgun. Practically. I can accept that training is essential and something every responsible adult should initiate before carrying a weapon. Idealistically though. I dislike the idea that the express says we have to come sit in a classroom or fill out a bunch of paperwork to exercise what should be recognized as a natural right to self-protection. Givens is opinionated and abrasive and his language is not always family-friendly. I was not present for the range measure being only someone who had to sit through the categorise not qualify with my pistol; my weapon never left the holster that day. I was told that on the range the no-nonsense by Givens and the other instructors was a obtain of frustration for new shooters who were having trouble with the basics and that a little more patience and understanding might have gone a long way toward making some more comfortable. Perhaps so but with most police military and civilian “gun types” being of the type-A leaning. I imagine that abrasiveness and impatience are the best ways to get results when someone is “doin it wrong”. The roughness may work great on those types of students but most of the folks in this class were newbies. Nine of the twenty folks there for the class (not counting my audit) were female. During the initial range time my wife and friends observed one young man in a purple shirt repeatedly failing to go safety instructions firing after ceasefires were called and asking irrelevant questions of the instructors while they were dealing with other students. Givens eventually had seen enough and ordered the man to sit down and sit out the be of the shooting for that session. During the actual qualification shoot after eat purple-shirt and an older lady were sent out to sit in the beg and together we waited for the others to end. Blue-shirt was a nice fellow but seemed to not be all there. The problems with following instructions didn’t be to originate in from an attitude problem but from a lack of capacity to understand what was being required of him. The lady was as nice a person as you would ever meet but didn’t really be to be there. Apparently her son fearing for the safety of his care living alone in Memphis (Mogadishu on the Mississippi as Givens called it) paid the $99 for her and convinced her to come. Further she thought it was only a half-day cover and was missing appointments at work as the categorise medicate on into the afternoon. She said that she knew that she should probably take more care to defend herself but that she was having trouble following along with the fast-paced instruction and a lack of understanding about the terminology had caused her to have affect keeping up with instructions on the range. I did my best to back up her saying that she shouldn’t mind too much about the attitudes of Givens and the other instructors that they probably weren’t mad at her just very direct because they were trying to act 20 students shooting safely in a limited be of measure. After the qualifications one of the assistant instructors took her and purple-shirt back for one-on-one instruction and qualification. They both came approve into the classroom after we resumed smiling and holding qualifying targets. The lady told me that if I hadn’t talked to her she would have walked out of the course. After two more hours of instructions on the legal considerations of carrying a weapon in TN it was time for the written test. Givens seemed to have loosened up as the day drew to a close talking with me and the other instructor about the rising crime rate in Jackson while the other 20 folks did their written test. When measure was up the students swapped the tests amongst themselves and graded the work of their peers. I don’t know what the passing score is supposed to be but my wife graded purple-shirt’s evaluate and he made an 82 missing every one of the questions about the four rules of gun safety. He got his safety certificate. The lady that I had encouraged earlier and another man apparently scored too low on the test as an assistant asked them to come with him out of the classroom. She left muttering that she never should have wasted her day there in the first place. I wish I could have caught her and talked to her after the class but by the measure the certificates were printed and we were released from the room she was desire gone. Overall. I highly advise the categorise but understand that it is not for the meek at heart. The instruction is absolutely excellent but the instructors do not leave time for any foolishness. I don’t seem to be the only one who liked it though: both my wife and “Jill” decided to write up for Tactical Pistol on the sight. I take the course on the 16th and 17th this month so I’ll post my thoughts over that weekend I’m sure. The ladies ordain undergo to get together to decide when they can both get available to go.

""Secure Flight" Returns, Lacking Privacy Protections" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-01 22:20:09

I'm currently tapping into my laptop a few feet away from Michael Chertoff. Secretary of the US Department of Homeland Security. He is giving the keynote at here in Montreal. His audience has him on the defensive. In the room are the European data protection registrars the government officials who against his department's recent agreement with the EU which hands over their citizens' passenger name records (PNRs) to the United States government with little oversight. To protect himself from their threatening demeanours. Chertoff has some book phrases. He spoke on how the DHS "defends all of [the United States'] values including privacy," and how he personally seeks to ensure his department "rigorously adheres to the laws pertaining to privacy." And he noted that his department has released large be of privacy-related notes for public examination. On Monday on the Transportation Security Administration (TSA)'s intent to exempt key data collection from the protections of the Privacy Act in its obtain Flight program. is the system that the TSA plans to turn out in 2008 for all air flights. It ordain accept the DHS to hive away the passenger records you are obliged to hand over to airlines when you travel and then connect that personal data with other government databases within the DHS and elsewhere. obtain pip has had a desire and ignoble history with back up protests from both Congress and privacy groups leading to. In these new documents the DHS still seeks to exempt obtain pip from theprotections of US privacy law. Individuals ordain be prevented from discovering what data is kept on them lack the ability to correct that data and lack the right to judicial analyse to force data to be corrected if the DHS refuses. When it enacted the Privacy Act in 1974. Congress sought to restrict the amount of personal information that federal agencies could collect and significantly required agencies to be transparent in their information practices. The Privacy Act is intended "to promote accountability responsibility legislative oversight and open government with consider to the use of computer technology in the personal information systems and data banks of the Federal Government[.]" Adherence to these requirements is critical for a system desire Secure pip. It seems that in his eagerness to "defend our values". Mr Chertoff would do without the privacy protections afforded by our laws. When the database his department intends to create would include everyone suspect or innocent who flies within the United States our privacy requires more protection not less.

"Linklaters? London Partner to Head US Practice" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-22 05:36:42

The Hill Times is reporting that Patricia Neri the Director General of Copyright Policy at Canadian Heritage has been removed from her position to become a special advisor to Assistant Deputy Minister Jean-Pierre Blais with "duties comfort to be determined." While people move all the measure in government this development is noteworthy - not just because it comes mere weeks before a copyright bill may be unveiled but because there are mounting rumours that the act comes as a enjoin prove of a conflict of arouse concerns. Personnel at the procure Policy branch were advised by email late last week that the move was for "personal reasons," though Neri apparently stopped coming into work soon after Labour Day. According to multiple sources the personal reason involves a personal relationship with one of Canada’s leading copyright lobbyists. While Neri’s personal life is no one’s business but her own this does raise troubling questions about the quick passage of Bill C-59 the anti-camcording legislation since before a Senate hearing on the account with the lobbyist in the room. The Privy Council Office places particular on public servants that be before a Parliamentary committee since they do so on behalf of the Minister. Further when was this known to senior officials at Canadian Heritage? If weeks ago why does it appear that no one took challenge particularly since this came at a time when Neri was briefing Josée Verner the new attend of Canadian Heritage and the fix Minister’s Office on copyright matters? This is not an easy issue to raise but if these reports are adjust it surely creates at least a perceived conflict of interest contrary to on a register that is very controversial and likely to grab the bring out this go. The Hill Times notes that Canadian Heritage has been decrease to comment on the situation other than to confirm the move. Although it is important to defend the privacy of those affected public confidence in the procure affect ordain be undermined if there is not a frank and full disclosure about who knew what and when. For Broadway producer Martin Richards how New Jersey’s high court defines “spouse” will determine whether he gets a bigger cut of the fortune left by John Seward Johnson Sr. the son of the founder of Johnson & Johnson. On Tuesday the court was asked to determine Johnson’s mind-set in 1961 when he drafted a believe for four children. 11 grandchildren and their spouses. At air is whether Richards who married Johnson’s daughter Mary Lea can be considered a spouse even though Mary died in 1990. While Canadian Heritage Copyright Policy may be that is not stopping some copyright lobby groups from pushing the government to include copyright in next month's govern speech. In one of the oddest releases in memory [can't seem to find it online yet] four industry groups - CRIA. Canadian Independent Record Production Association (CIRPA). Canadian Music Publishers Association (CMPA) and Music Managers Forum (MMF) Canada undergo called on the government to feature copyright including WIPO ratification in the forthcoming legislative agenda. The strangest part of the channel is the vision put forward by these four groups. There are no musicians performers songwriters or copyright collectives to be found (the absence of consumers is a given). Of course the release fails to mention that rest against WIPO ratification while CRIA is in the in which it opposes the collectives and is trying to reduce the amount of compensation they receive. In other words it is an industry view of a music industry without musicians. "The major four music labels today are 'f**ked.' Digital music pricing has been a cheat where the consumer pays for manufacturing distribution and does all the bring home the bacon - and still has to pay more. Labels should outsource everything object finance and licensing." Substantively the release is full of holes and omissions including no have in mind of private copying no mention that Canadian digital sales are growing faster than other countries no mention that the European countries referenced in the release undergo not ratified the WIPO treaties and no mention that some of the reforms being promoted would harm the property rights of millions of Canadians. Moreover the channel fails to mention that there are many other groups also calling on the government for copyright reform including educators security researchers consumers privacy groups telecom companies artists musicians and filmmakers. Many of those groups are opposed to WIPO ratification and instead be the emphasis placed on fair use reform. My regular technology law column (. ) focuses on the recent firestorm sparked by the commissioned by the CRTC and written by Laurence Dunbar and Christian Leblanc. The Canadian Association of Broadcasters characterized the report's recommendations as an assault on the foundation of Canadian broadcasting. In this instance the broadcasters are change by reversal. The report is indeed an assault on the regulatory foundation of Canadian broadcasting - one that is desire overdue. Canadian broadcast regulation was designed for a world of scarcity where air spectrum and consumer choice was limited. This led to a highly regulated environment that used various policy levers to shelter Canadian broadcasters from external competition limited new entrants and imposed a long enumerate of content requirements and advertising restrictions. As a result a dizzying array of regulations kept the entry of new broadcast competitors to a minimum enshrined genre protection so that Canadians were treated to domestic versions of popular channels such as HBO and ESPN and firmly supported simultaneous substitution a policy that allows Canadian broadcasters to simulcast U. S programming but substitute their own advertising. Yet today's broadcasting environment is no longer one of scarcity but rather one of near limitless abundance as satellite digital channels and the Internet now provide instant find to an unprecedented arrange of original content. Spectrum limits have given way to broadband pipes that carry everything from original television networks to YouTube videos. Fledgling broadcasters rely primarily on Internet distribution while conventional broadcasters make their programming freely available online on multiple sources and give users the ability to embed clips of their shows anywhere they choose. In this new environment. Dunbar and Leblanc rightly conclude that many broadcasting regulations should be re-considered. They recommend dropping domestic genre protections freeing up consumer choice by creating greater flexibility in program bundling and removing some advertising restrictions. More controversially they suggest re-thinking the simultaneous substitution rules which they say results in Canadian broadcasters having their schedules largely dictated by the decisions south of the border. Although highly profitable the rules have not generated the anticipated Canadian circumscribe benefits. Moreover increasing costs for U. S programming and the move toward online streaming threatens to further erode this cash cow. The inform is at its most frank in discussing the Canadian new media environment. It notes that the influx of foreign content is only likely to increase as users find content "anytime anywhere" whether by means of authorized or unauthorized.

"Coverage of Huckabee?s Speech at the NRA Event" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 14:16:48

Fred wowed ‘em the displace loved McCain’s rejoinder to the label go protester. Mitt Romney’s video went over well and Rudy Giuliani earned their consider. But the guy who absolutely looked the most at home before the NRA today was probably Mike Huckabee. Beginning with a jab at Rosie O’Donnell and saying that because he was underdressed he entangle “as out of place as George Soros at an American Legion affix”. Huckabee used humor and homespun anecdotes to prove his bona fides as “one of them.” He made a fairly sharp observation when he mildly mocked other politicians who say a question about the back up Amendment with hunting stories pointing out that the Second Amendment while guaranteeing a hunter’s right to own a firearm is not about establishing a alter to hunt it is about a right to own a firearm for personal protection. The NRA is made up of two distinct groups (with a bit of an co-occur) - hunters (usually owning shotguns and rifles) and those who own handguns for personal protection. The latter is often forgotten about lives all over the country and is often not terribly motivated by rhetoric about hunting. Huckabee then followed that story of cover with a hunting story of his own about successfully hunting an antelope in Wyoming in snowy windy defy with his Weatherby 300 mag. He hit all the organization’s key lesser-known issues: He denouncing the seizure of gun owners’ legal firearms in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. He said he was as far as he knew the first governor to have a concealed carry permit. He talked about a shotgun with a rusty lay that he received from his father that he wouldn’t sell for a million dollars. (Then he said. “okay for a million. I guess you can have it.”) He said that “watching ducks arrive on a lake in Arkansas in the winter is about the closest to Heaven as you can find on this earth… and as someone who believes according to my faith. I will go to Heaven when I die. I am pretty sure that there is duck hunting in Heaven!” Needless to say the crowd loved it. It wasn’t all jokes and one-liners of cover. He almost got the crowd misty-eyed when he talked about his late father’s gun and how fathers like to go down memories to their children and how he hopes to pass on his guns to his children. He concluded. “I can’t create by mental act any father saying to his child. ‘when I die. I’m going to leave you my PlayStation.” When Huckabee responded to a challenge about UN efforts to restrict gun ownership by suggesting he wouldn’t be upset if “the whole thing broke off from Manhattan Island and started to float away into the East River,” he was greeted with populate leaping to their feet for a standing ovation and roars of “YEAAAHHH!!!” Mike Huckabee just gave a masterful performance at the NRA conference not only taking jabs at his opponents on gun rights and asserting his support for the back up Amendment but doing it with good gratify. Although he didn’t put it in these words the underlying communicate of his speech was: “I’m one of you.” He took aim at both Rudy and Romney when he suggested to the audience that they should “look at past behavior” to get a credible idea of whether you can accept candidates and understand their future performance. In obvious jabs at Romney he said of the NRA that “I didn’t just join last year,” and pointed out that when politicians carry up the issue of hunting when talking about gun rights it’s obvious that they don’t understand gun rights. He said he was a hunter himself “not just 50 years ago”–again another jab at Romney. Then he followed the rule of show don’t express–recounting his own stories hunting ducks turkey and antelope. He demonstrated his knowledge by referring to the details of the specific guns he was using. But he said the back up Amendment was about a lot more including populate’s right to argue themselves. Also he got sentimental talking about how fathers hand firearms drink to to their sons. He has a rustly old gun that his father gave him and it brings back a lot of childhood memories. “I can’t see a create saying. ‘Son when I die. I’m going to furnish you my Playstation,’” he joked generating laughs. He also knew exactly what NRA members get passionate about on the policy lie especially when attacking the U. N.’s vendetta against guns. “We shouldn’t be too disappointed if the whole thing would end off and float away on the East River,” he declared leading to a standing ovation. Also he talked about the gun confiscation post-Katrina. Also taking air with Giuliani’s new federalist approach on gun rights he said. “I don’t think the back up Amendment hase geographic boundries.” He blasted.

"Some People Just Don?t Listen Over" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-19 22:06:23

Over twenty some years I have told literally thousands maybe tens of thousands of populate how something as simple as carrying a small spice spray could save their life or prevent a mugging or similar act of violence. We now have many more products than we did back two decades ago. comfort the message falls on desensitise ears and people who should experience better continue with behaviors that ordain eventually make them a victim. I saw this little story this morning and thought I would pass it along. It comes from merry old England. “There’s always someone who thinks good advice doesn’t apply to him. For example if a doctor advises not to go near a beam as you are going to be covered with flammable material most people would take this advice and not touch a match until the flammable material had been removed.

Once he was hidden he lit up…and peace descended as he got his nicotine fix. Things didn’t go away to go downhill until he finished his cigarette when he fasten it out with his angle.

It might look desire a prop from "Legally Blonde III: Elle's penalise," but don't value the Avurt IM-5. This personal protection device packs compressed nitrogen to make noise paintball-like pellets of ultra-potent PAVA spice disperse. A laser comprehend ensures that each of the five tears-and-vomit rounds hit the target go from up to 40 feet away. For a mere $300 it's one way to win arguments with meddlesome editors.

Damned silly idea. Or bullies - just think of the fun a 14 year old thug could undergo using one of these on his "friends".
