I’ve been involved in
the firearms community for nearly 20 years as a
defensive shooter, a licensed collector, a
right-t0-arms activist, a hobby gunsmith, and
now as a licensed dealer in Washington.
Throughout this time, I’ve also been a student
of the history of firearms, the politics
surrounding their place in society, and the
philosophy and practice of their use for lawful
purposes.
M. D.
Van Norman trains with Ryman Tactical at
the Angeles Shooting Ranges, California,
AD 2012.
I established Dancing Giant
Sales in response to tightening laws, but it
also serves as a platform to share what I’ve
learned with my fellow shooters. Firearms
are wrapped in hype and hyperbole, so if I
can cut some of that away and help my
visitors make informed decisions, then so
much the better. Maybe that leads to a sale,
or maybe it doesn’t.
I am happy to offer advice and guidance on
selecting firearms, ammunition, holsters,
and other components, but the end user
should always make the final determination
about what is most suitable for the
particular need at hand. In other words,
there is no one best firearm or weapon
system. There is only what works best for
the individual user in a given application.
The wrong tools can sometimes be forced into
doing the job by a determined user, but they
will never do the job as well or as
effortlessly as the right tools.
The links on the right are just starting
points for more information. Therein are
several standard references and resources, a
few gateways to further discussion and
knowledge, and even some of my own
observations and opinions. The information
revolution has opened the once cloistered
and arcane realm of firearms and the
shooting sports to the eyes of the world,
but it has yet to be determined whether this
development can protect and promote the
civil right to arms in the face of constant
assault by the forces of chauvinistic
prohibitionists, state authoritarians, and
their various sympathizers presently in
control of the mainstream propaganda
machine.
Join the national conversation on guns and
defend your right to keep and bear arms.
