JRH Enterprises is running a Labor Day weekend sale on new 3rd Generation Pinnacle Autogated AN/PVS-14 night vision scopes for $2,695 for the standard model and their upgraded version with higher line pair specs now at just $2,995. I bought one of the latter from JRH several years ago, and I have been thrilled with its performance. Order yours, before the sale ends!

Dan. M. sent this news article from Ohio: Cops Confiscate Lakewood Lady’s Arsenal; Motive Pending. JWR’s Comments: Since the guns were deemed “legal” we can conclude that the “Thompson sub-machine gun” was in fact either a lawfully registered Class 3 gun, or that it was a semi-auto only clone. It is sad that the guns were taken without cause in the first place and downright disgusting that the owner had to resort to the courts to have her property returned. This leads me to ask: What have they done to Ohio? My great-great-great-grandfather is doubtless rolling in his grave! (In 1801, John Rawles was an original “entryman” pioneer in the portion of the Northwest Territory that two years later became Pickaway County, Ohio.)

A friend in Germany sent this: Pakistan to ban encryption software (and VPN tunneling, too. It is sad that the law-abiding suffer for the misdeeds of others.)
