    Seen at GunPundit, the Steve Lauer and Michael Bloomberg bobble heads. Steve told me about these when I was up there. He said they called Bloomberg a few times, asking what gun he should be holding, and in what color. The Mayor did not respond. Go figure. Just one more reason I love those guys.

    Lauer started with DuraCoat, which Mayor Bloomberg decided was a risk to police, because criminals could color their guns to look like toys. This turned out to be better advertising than Lauer could hope for, and sales spiked. Bloomberg also opened the door for them, so “The Bloomberg Collection was introduced. In talking to the…

    Lauer Custom Weaponry is selling an “I <heart> Mayor Bloomberg” button. Now, this may seem a little crazy coming from a weapons maker, but the story goes something like this: LCW develops DuraCoat, and makes it available in a wide array of colors, from camo, to parkerized looking, to electric colors.

       If you haven’t heard, Wal-Mart has entered into an agreement with Mayor Bloomberg’s “Mayors against all Illegal Guns.” As you can imagine, this agreement is going to cause more problems for gun owners than criminals. Borrowing a little from Sebastian’s letter, I wrote the following:  To whom it may concern, It was with great regret…

    Paul Helmke & The Brady Campaign weighed in on the colored guns debate. I have to agree with Sebastian on two of the main points in his post. I don’t like people telling me what I can and cannot do with my property, and may well have to find an excuse to paint a gun in neon…

    Kim du Toit already weighed in on this one, but I felt compelled to chime in, being about fellow Wisconsin resident Steve Lauer and Lauer Custom Weaponry.
