A Chinese general officer visiting Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., holds an M4 carbine May 9, 2012. Chinese Minister of National Defense Gen. Liang Guanglie and the rest of the Chinese delegation were touring several U.S. military installations at the invitation of Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta. The purpose of the visits was to highlight the improvement in the United States’ capacity to cooperate in areas of mutual interest, such as humanitarian assistance, disaster relief and addressing nontraditional and transnational security threats and counterpiracy.

They didn’t give the general a magazine.

Darrell Issa Threatens to Find Eric Holder in Contempt Over ‘Fast and Furious’

House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) released a staff memo today arguing the House should hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, saying the Department of Justice has refused to produce internal documents relating to a botched operation.

The DOJ says it’s cooperating and has released over 7,600 pages of documents already.

The memo released today said the DOJ has not released materials in 12 of 22 categories of documents demanded by Issa.

“For over a year, the department has issued false denials, given answers intended to misdirect investigators, sought to intimidate witnesses, unlawfully withheld subpoenaed documents and waited to be confronted with indisputable evidence,” the memo stated.

‘Justice for Trayvon’

May 3, 2012 | Author Murdoc

15 Whites Beaten By Gangs of Black Thugs… So Far

David Forster and Marjon Rostami are just the latest victims of brutal beatings tied to the Trayvon Martin shooting, and some Virginians are outraged that the newspaper did not report the attack for “politically correct reasons.” The attack was revealed not as news, but in an opinion piece.

And here’s something:

On March 24-25, a string of attacks in Grand Rapids, Mich., by mobs of black youths injured seven whites in separate incidents. Five of the injured filed police reports. Examiner reporter Kyle Rogers interviewed one of the victims, Jacob Palasek, who had been beaten with a chain. Palasek stated that police investigators feel that all the attacks were related to the Trayvon Martin story. Local news media stand accused of burying the story to keep racial tensions from rising to a boiling point.

Visitors can carry guns openly in Virginia parks

A long-standing prohibition on openly carrying guns in Virginia state parks is set to officially end Monday, a victory for gun rights advocates after a protracted political battle that spanned four administrations.

More than a year in the making, the state code is being changed after Gov. Bob McDonnell in January 2011 ordered the Department of Conservation and Recreation to stop enforcing the regulation banning guns from parks…

People 18 and older in Virginia who can legally own a gun can carry one openly in the state without a permit, as long as it’s visible and holstered. But they were not allowed to bring a gun into a state park. Repealing that regulation affects a significantly larger swath of the gun-owning population because there are far more legal gun owners than concealed-carry permit holders.

Springs and Buffers

Gunsmithing the AR: 3 Tips for Buffers & Recoil Springs

Some of the carbine buffers can be found made of a plastic moulding instead of machined aluminum. These will be filled with lead shot. While they weight much the same as the proper aluminum carbine buffer, they are a cause of unreliable function. A carbine containing this buffer should have the wretched plastic abomination exchanged for a proper buffer.

“Wretched plastic abomination.” Nice.
