(Admittedly, GFSZA prosecutions are rare. In this article, Williams cites a 2020 case in which a prohibited person was offered a deal to plead to a GFSZA violation as a lesser charge but, to my knowledge, most prosecutions have been of people committing other, serious offenses within 1,000 feet of schools and the federal GFSZA offered the chance to “put them away” for longer terms than did applicable state laws. Nevertheless, the GFSZA remains a potential minefield for otherwise law-abiding gun owners. In fact, Williams misstates the exemption that he quotes – the requirement is not that the gun owner be licensed to carry in his home state but that he be licensed to carry in the state in which the school zone is located. Thus – and F Troop has been clear about its interpretation – when it comes to the GFSZA, it matters naught whether you travel to a state that recognizes your home-state license/permit; if you are not licensed to carry in the state that you're visiting, you're in violation of the federal GFSZA if you possess a loaded firearm as you drive or walk within 1,000 feet of a school in that state.)

Good info on the drop safety of handguns.![]()
Stephen P. Wenger mentioned the following info in an excerpt he wrote about this subject......![]()
I'm among the trainers who advise letting a dropped gun go to ground even though I believe that I've probably shared more reports of dropped-gun discharges than of caught-gun discharges. The greater risk with caught-gun discharges is that the muzzle of a pistol is more likely to be pointed at the head as the person bends to catch the gun. Most of the dropped-gun discharges making it into the news have involved low-price guns, including mini-revolvers, typically carried in pockets without holsters to help keep them in place. There were several lawsuits involving dropped-gun discharges of Taurus's early striker-fired pistols, despite claims that at least some of the users had engaged the thumb safety – a step that the manual stated was necessary to ensure the function of the firing-pin safety. Some list members will recall the brouhaha over the potential for the original, civilian models of SIG's P320 to discharge if dropped and impacted at one or more angles other than those in the SAAMI/HP White test. While there have been several reports of in-holster discharges of P320's, I don't recall don't recall whether any injuries have been reported with dropped ones. In discussing this topic on my Website's Firearm Safety page, I include: “Unfortunately, as discussed above, there are still some handguns on the lower end of the price scale - typically mini-revolvers and inexpensive pistols - that may not be drop-safe. [Instruction manuals – typically available on the websites of manufacturers - will usually mention such things as firing-pin safeties. You may also want to do an internet search for lawsuits and settlements to help determine which brands have had issues, even with firing-pin safeties - such as those that require engagement of the thumb safety for full protection.]” I remain amazed at how many gunners who will spend well into four figures on a gun that they will only use at the range will only spend a few hundred dollars on a carry gun on which they may be staking their lives.

Accidental Discharge or Negligence![]()
I'm sorry but an Accidental Discharge is one that is out of your control. A Negligent Discharge happens when you handle the firearm improperly. The most common of these being 1. Muzzle pointed somewhere improper (yourself or others when not in a defensive situation)2. Hand in front of the muzzle (which is part of #1)3. Finger on the trigger when you are not on the target and ready to shoot (on target on trigger-off target off trigger)Many negligent discharges happen when people do not load and unload a firearm properly. It is a skill that many do not teach. We want to make excuses for people who don't or won't follow the rules of good gun handling. For me, I teach and always will, you have four safety rules we all know them (or should). If you violate rule #2 (Muzzle direction) the most important rule of all, and you touch the trigger on that firearm YOU ARE NEGLIGENT.......What is a proper muzzle direction? It is not down as so many have taught in the past. It is pointing the firearm in a direction that is ok for a bullet to launch from the gun. If that happens to be down then so be it. Too many people believe down is a rule. It is not!! Down is a choice you make based on the situation you are in. Get it together people there are no passes for mishandling a firearm!

Denver7 data analysis finds jump in firearm assaults, murders in major Colorado cities
www.koaa.com
Murders and aggravated assaults with firearms have increased significantly in major Colorado cities.
From GOA, Again: I [Erich Pratt] wrote to you last week the anti-gunners are hijacking the annual military funding bill known as the National Defense Authorization Act (or NDAA) again with gun control. This time they've added an amendment to set-up a program for so called “safe-storage.” If this passes, you can count on them using this to justify extreme gun control... This amendment does not tackle the root causes of the high service member suicide rate, as its proponents claim it does. Rather than actually helping members, this amendment would blame the tool, rather than the root problem, for causing such tragedies. Removing the rights of our service members does not help them and will not reduce the suicide crisis in our military. Our only hope is if you pressure lawmakers NOW to tell leadership any and all gun control is unacceptable. Demand your two senators and local representative call for all gun control to be negotiated out of the NDAA! Anti-gunners think the idea behind so-called "safe storage" laws is that anti-gunners think if its harder to access a life-saving firearm when you need it, you'll be safer. Inevitably, for this to be enforced, there would need to be inspections by the government on civilians on how and where guns are stored. Even if it’s a voluntary program, this creates a precedent so that the government will figure out the most effective means of investigating your home and figuring out how many firearms you own, where you put them, and how you are able to access them. If this passes, how long will it take for this “voluntary” program to become a MANDATORY program?![]()

Our forefathers would be proud of our efforts to continue waging the fight for freedom that they started. A lot of people think the American Revolution was only fought over taxes. But they forget the inciting moment of the Revolution was because of an attempted gun ban by the British. When the tyrants came for the guns held in Concord, they were met by no-compromise Patriots, and the "shot heard around the world" was fired on the Lexington grounds. Our government has changed a lot since 1776, but our God-given rights have not. And we will continue to fight to preserve them for the generations that follow us.![]()

Some good advice from: ConditionZero![]()
![]()
With the colder season approaching, and with it already freezing in some parts of the country, remember to keep your carry ammo nice and warm or they’ll begin to shrink and shrivel back up into their casing! ![]()
In all seriousness, bullet setback is a real, preventable, problem that can occur to those who don’t know how to prevent such from occurring. ![]()
•What is bullet setback? ![]()
Bullet setback occurs when a round is repeatedly chambered and the projectile of the cartridge strikes the feed ramp, or other internal parts, and pushes the projectile deeper into the casing. ![]()
•Why is this bad?![]()
Over time, the C.O.A.L, or Cartridge Overall Length, will decrease. Depending on the cartridge or caliber, pressures inside the casing will exceed maximum pressures allowed and cause the casing to rupture. This can potentially lead you with a malfunction that cannot be cleared by hand or can damage the weapon. Which is NOT what you want when it’s time to go to work with your weapon. ![]()
•How can I prevent bullet setback?![]()
The answer is simple. Stop re-chambering the same round. Or cycling the top two every time you leave the house. This is a common occurrence I see far too often. Someone comes home, removes the round from their chamber for “safety” then when they leave home the next day, they chamber the next round in mag; thus creating the perfect opportunity for bullet setback to occur. ![]()
Chamber your round, holster your weapon, and forget about it. When the time comes for training or cleaning, which you should do after every training session, cycle that previously chambered carry round to the bottom of the mag. (see below)![]()
Sincerely, some guy who wants you to understand that safe weapons handling isn’t just physically controlling the weapon in a safe manner by following the 4 rules, but it’s also safely, and responsibly caring for your weapon and its food.![]()
