On July 22, New Zealand’s Labour-led government announced a wide array of new gun control proposals. The move came amidst the island nation’s ongoing program to confiscate commonly-owned semi-automatic firearmsfrom law-abiding gun owners that will last through December 20. The government’s most recent attack on gun owners is likely to engender further civil disobedience to the firearm confiscation scheme.

Compulsory Gun Ownership Will Not Save Liberty

With this year’s revision and destruction of famously libertarian Swiss gun laws, the world has started to look closer at the gun culture of Europe. Under threat of Schengen Area exclusion, the EU, which Switzerland is not a part of, changed their gun laws in order to fall more in line with barebones Union restrictions. Swiss gun laws are now stricter, requiring further background checks and more extensive licensing paperwork. However, they are still lawless in comparison to countries like the United Kingdom or Australia. But this investigation by those on the more libertarian side of the gun rights argument leads to the rediscovery of compulsory gun ownership both in Switzerland and in the United States.

When bullets fired from a passing car sliced through the St. Louis night one Sunday in June, they hit two children, killing three-year-old Kenndei Powell and seriously wounding another little girl, age six. Police in the Missouri city were not immediately able to identify or find the shooter, and Powell joined the grim ranks of the 36,000 people killed by guns every year in the U.S., on average. An additional 100,000 are injured.

The excellent award-winning Sig P365 that I reviewed here a little over a year ago has won a lot of awards. It is a well-respected, sub-compact concealed carry pistol with excellent features which Sig Sauer designed around a uniquely tapered 10-round magazine. Some of the 365 awards include “Handgun of the Year” for 2018 by Guns and Ammo, the NRA Golden Bullseye Award from Shooting Illustrated “Handgun of the Year,” and the “Top 10 Guns of 2018” by TFB.
 

The Truth About “Smart Guns”

“Smart guns” are firearms with some type of electronic or mechanical locking system that prevents unauthorized users from discharging the firearm. The Armatix iP1 (pictured above) tested by NRA staff in 2014 wasn’t a particularly compelling firearm. Even beyond problems with its “smart” features, staff members struggled to get the pistol to fire an entire magazine without a stoppage. It also “featured” an incredibly heavy double-action trigger pull that led one staffer to wonder if the trigger pull itself was an attempt to make the gun impossible to fire.
