By now, many people know that a fringe element of the firearm prohibitionist movement called for a boycott of Starbucks beginning 02/14/2012. That didn’t pan out too well for them as within hours of releasing their PR Newswire release, gun bloggers across the United States and many grassroots RKBA groups called for their membership to help out a business being targeted solely for respecting the right of their patrons to lawfully protect themselves and their families.
Valentine’s Day came and went. Nobody was hurt, maimed or killed despite the shrill protestations of the gun prohibitionists. Now however there seems to be a bit of “gun blogger remorse” floating around.
The thing is, when you organize a family reunion the event includes the whole family including ‘crazy’ Uncle Jed, goofy Aunt Jen, and everyone in between. Yes, the annoying spawn of distant cousins from backwater NYC who married will be running around, screaming, misbehaving while the adults try to talk, “Big” Al will probably burn the burgers & dogs on the grill and it’s certain that cross words will be spoken between at least 2 men & 2 women, but no harm usually comes from it. Surely there will be whisper & gossip about someone wearing something just a little too tight.

Recently Beretta USA introduced a new pocket pistol, the “Nano”, chambered in 9mm. The dimensions are quite favorable to pocket, glovebox and ‘backup gun’ carry methods. Scored at a local gun show for under $400 The gun has some good potential in a crowded field. How the gun compares and shoots along side some of the existing competition will prove interesting and perhaps entertaining.
First off, this gun is small. “J-frame” small. Not quite pocket .380 small, but for a 9mm chambered gun it definitely is well placed in the market. Smith & Wesson’s J-Frame revolver is considered by many as the “Gold Standard” for pocket carry and the J-Frame is certainly carried by many very often. It’s also true that they’re shot very seldom by many. Take a look at a side by side size comparison:

Many of the RKBA / 2nd Amendment community have been buzzing about a Republican candidate who can beat Obama. Recently there have been a lot of statements along the lines of "don't let the perfect get in the way of the good" or otherwise trumpeting that whomever the Republicans nominate the gun community MUST vote for them. A recent document dump called the Romney book contained 200 pages of campaign dirt on Mitt Romney. We stripped out the non RKBA / 2nd Amendment data and here it is.

There is an old political adage: "never let a good crisis go to waste" and here is a great example. The Obama regime has declared that the terrorist attacks at Fort Hood, Texas by Nidal Hassan have now morphed from an act of terrorism, or mass murder if you prefer to "workplace violence". If that's workplace violence, you might want to know what the government defines as terrorism. Here's an insight into some of the "indicators"
How does the government benefit from all of this?
