Gun store owners need a person who can work on guns, but they should be careful how they refer to that person. Many stores have a knowledgeable person on staff they erroneously call an armorer. Others compound the error by referring to the same person as a gunsmith. Odds are the gun counter “expert” is neither. Bryan Hendricks explains the differences between the two in "Gunsmith Or Armorer?" https://lnkd.in/gWVnU9QW

The Armorer's Proven Breach in Responsibility During 'Rust' on Set Shooting 📲https://lnkd.in/d8rwBpdi A New Mexico jury deliberated for less than three hours before delivering a mixed verdict in the case of the embattled armorer in charge of weapons at the “Rust” movie set, where Alec Baldwin fatally shot one person and injured another. Hannah Gutierrez, now 26, was found guilty on charges of involuntary manslaughter but acquitted on charges she tampered with evidence after the accidental shooting. Gutierrez, who had been released on bond during the trial, was immediately taken into custody following the conviction.daily trial updates button Baldwin, the lead actor and producer of “Rust,” was pointing the gun at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins when the fatal shot was fired. Director Joel Souza was also injured in the accident. Baldwin claims he pulled back the hammer of the gun but did not pull the trigger. Six live rounds were ultimately discovered, some in a box of supposed dummy ammunition brought on set by Gutierrez, in the gun belt worn by actor Jensen Ackles and the bandolier worn by Baldwin.

NOT EVERYONE IS EQUIPPED TO BE A PROTECTOR NOTE: This is copied and pasted from an email missive, abridged. QUOTE: "Your rights don't trump your responsibility to train to ensure you don't take an innocent person's life." As mentioned many times before, once you acquire a firearm, it becomes a 24/7/365 responsibility. This includes where the bullets go if the trigger is pulled . . . Even if it's a deviant 14 year old child who pulls the trigger! Sometimes it's a choice and sometimes it is genetic, but not everyone is equipped to be a protector . . . At least not using a firearm. Look at the bullet holes all over the place that this gentleman points out in the shooting range. In all fairness, it's not a question of "if" but "when" there will be a negligible discharge or shall we say, a premature discharge before you're on target at the range. It can happen easily. For example, you've been firing a pistol that has a heavy trigger pull and then you pick up one that has an extremely light trigger pull and "bam" you've "prepped" the trigger like you've done before and you've launched lead. Think about this next time you go to the range. If ANY of your rounds go outside the human outline on the target, ask yourself, where would that round have gone in the real world. If you cannot consistently keep your rounds in the kill zone at a certain distance, understand that this is your limit beyond which you should not shoot unless you KNOW what is beyond the object or person you're firing at. ONE COMMENTER: @laanierhae 2 months ago I agree 100%. I started taking classroom firearms training - state laws, etc. before I bought a gun. Then I started training, then got my CCW, and I still train with a qualified instructor and I put in solo time at the range. I'm a 5'1, 46 year-old female with no military or law enforcement experience, didn't grow up around guns. If I can prioritize this responsibility and take it seriously so that I'm not a danger to the public or myself, I don't understand why that's so difficult for many of the people who are complaining about what you've said in this video. If you're going to carry, consider this fellow's advice. The proper choice in method of carry cannot be over emphasized. If you elect to appendix carry, it is going to be difficult to holster/re-holster without sweeping your body with the muzzle of your pistol. You might be fine taking it slow and easy on the range, but in a real world scenario your tunnel vision might not allow you to see that zipper pull that just got between your trigger and the trigger guard. Personally, I don't want the business end of a firearm aimed at my junk. . . . Instructor sweeps his groin with the muzzle when re-holstering. Backing up on a shooting range because you know there is nothing behind you is a bad habit to acquire! https://lnkd.in/dSDxV6vZ

#FirearmsFriday for suppressors. I'm mostly a cloner autist & gun collector. Spending all day #Importing, #Exporting & #Dealing in guns means that when I have free time, the last thing I want to do is go shooting. A good 90% of the #Firearms I own are either #Military clones or surplus, #Guns from #Movies, #Police guns, or ironic cringe. Very few of the #Weapons I own are owned for practical use. But most all of the #Rifles I own for practical use, have a suppressor. Being an FFL/SOT as a sole prop #ExpertWitness, I typically have a dedicated can for each one, because I'm lazy & I hate #Money. Many people get suppressors thinking they'll be #Hollywood quite, where you can shoot them during a mediation retreat & nobody will notice. Reality isn't quite like that. Even with suppressors, I generally still wear hearing protection when #Shooting. The exception is when I'm using them around the ranch shooting hogs or whatever. There they allow me to shoot without further damaging my hearing more than the US Army already has. Cans are a cool tool, but if you're expecting Hollywood type quite, they're going to be disappointing.

The 13 Rules for Gunfighting, often associated with the U.S. Marine Corps, are guidelines that emphasize the practical, no-nonsense approach to survival in a gunfight. While not an official doctrinal list, they are widely circulated and appreciated in military and tactical communities. Here are the 13 rules: 1. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all your friends who have guns. 2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive. 3. Only hits count. The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss. 4. If your shooting stance is good, you’re probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly. 5. Move away from your attacker.Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movement are preferred.) 6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend with a long gun. 7. In ten years, nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived. 8. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running. 9. Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on “pucker factor” than the inherent accuracy of the gun. 10. Use a gun that works EVERY TIME. “All skill is in vain when an Angel pisses in the flintlock of your musket.” 11. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty. 12. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose. 13. Have a plan. Have a back-up plan because the first one won’t work. These rules emphasize the importance of preparation, mindset, and tactics in any deadly encounter.
