Until the Supremes come out and say 'the Second allows unrestricted ownership of firearms', there is always going to be states like Virginia, Washington, California, New Jersey, New York and Illinois (not all inclusive) that will try to insist that private citizens have no right to self defense, using the justification 'if it saves one life, it's worth it'. I forget who said it, but 'an unarmed citizen isn't a citizen, he's a slave'.

Simply too much money and not enough people can or doesnt donate to the cause.
And corruption within the courts and politicians

A few pics. BTW the Anti-Gun Rally that was supposed to go down later in the day was canceled due to "safety concerns". Estimates have 22,000 people showed up for the Pro Gun rally.

I didn't take these pics but I thought they were good. Many people opened carried and I bet even more concealed carried. Saw a wide range of guns, from 22 pistols all the way up to a Barrett M82A1.

Good. More than a few hundred showed up. Wow 22k is a very good start

The liberal MSM is saying 22k. More conservative news sources are saying closer to 50k. TBH it’s hard to say who is right.

The news said only one person was arrested. Didn't hear for what for.

I read somewhere that it was felony wearing of a mask or some such.

She was warned twice to stop wearing her mask/bandanna before they arrested her. It’s not lawful to wear a mask for the purposes of hiding your identity in VA. The rumors are she has links to the governor and was trying to start trouble.

Comes to no surprise that in the aftermath of the rally there was no destruction of property, no vandalism, nor any trash left on the streets. People even scrapped fallen stickers off the ground. A great contrast to many left wing rallies and protests. (FYI I didn't take these pics)

Anyone here own a Glock 17? Your thoughts?

I had one, chambered for 9mm, for a while. Nice gun but didn't fit my hand very well and I found the safety-in-the-trigger to be a little disconcerting. It seemed to shoot well (only shot one box through it). I'd still have it if it were more comfortable in my hand.

Gen 4 or 5? They shouldve kept the front serrations on the 5, they also put night sites on it

. Not a big fan of Glocks in general, but Ive heard of nothing but good things as far as reliability.
