I've always heard left-leaning liberals were notorious for gaslighting, but I never really experienced it first hand until recently. I got into a "debate" with someone I follow(ed) on Instagram about the Second Amendment, in light of the recent tragedy. And while I wasn't completely shocked at the position they took, I was a bit taken back when they ridiculed my military service and their lack of

One of the things I love about Facebook thread comments posted by left-leaning types, is that they inevitably reveal themselves for their true nature, which is most often characterized by their self-righteousness and their mindless willingness to ignore true facts and skew said facts to fit their view and narrative.I offer as an example the following thread posted by a Facebook "friend" who is

I'm sure this will come as no surprise to you Republican voters and Trump supporters (I am a Libertarian, so I cannot therefore being accused of being a Trump supporter per se, although, I do prefer him as President over old Creepy Joe), but as you can see in the comment thread below, left-leaning, anti-Trump liberals care not about those pesky things called facts. They seem only to care about

Admittedly, I had been advised by friends, and read a few negative reviews, that the Sight Mark Red Dot Ultra Shot Pro Spec and 3X Magnifier combo that I bought was not considered to be a high quality product, considering the almost infinite amount of options when it comes to selecting a red dot. But price is always an issue for me, and throw in the fact that I don't use my AR-15's for

I had originally set out to join the local El Paso Moms Demand Action Facebook group to see if I could slip a satirical meme past the group administrators and gauge the reactions to it. The meme is a photo of an M1 Garand rifle, with a Moms Demand Action logo and the text “The 2nd Amendment is for hunting rifles like this… not weapons of war”. The joke, of course, is that the M1 Garand is one

A good friend of mine called me up yesterday afternoon wanting to know if I would like gas up my Jeep and follow him (in his Jeep) for a little off-roading and landscape photography West of El Paso in the area of the Portrillo Mountains, on public land (Bureau of Land Management area), the mountains themselves are part of the Organ Mountains Desert Peaks National Monument. It's a beautiful

There's a hidden gem of the firearms world located, surprisingly, in the small town Cody, Wyoming (Population 9,885 as of 2017). The Cody Firearms Museum is perhaps, the single most impressive display of firearms in the United States, perhaps the world (according to Wikipedia, it is the most comprehensive firearms collection of American firearms in the world). It is certainly the largest

There's a neat little air museum at Dallas Love Field that houses a nice collection of historic aircraft. It doesn't quite stack up to the likes of the Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson, AZ but it offers enough for an enjoyable 2-3 hour visit. Quite frankly, the most impressive displays at Frontiers of Flight Air Museum are the countless model airplanes, the construction of which and

Fort Hood, Texas is home to two modest military museums, the 1st Cavalry and the 3rd Cavalry, both with a rich and colorful history. I had a chance to visit both recently and wanted to share the photos with you. It's a massive photo gallery, 149 photos in all, I think. Honestly, I expected a bit more from the 1st Cavalry Division Museum, I mean, we are talking about THE First Cav! Both museums

The tragic events of yesterday in my beloved El Paso are a stark reminder that the world we live in is not now and has never been, a safe place. As a society, we have agreed to create and abide by laws that are intended to keep us safe. This system of laws works, but only for those who abide by those laws. It's easy to forget that evil doers, the criminally insane and lawless thugs care nothing

P40 Thunderbolt on display at War Eagles Air Museum, Santa Teresa, New Mexico The War Eagles Air Museum can be found just West of El Paso in the border town of Santa Teresa, New Mexico. The entirety of it's collection, save for three aircraft, are housed in one hangar. It's an impressive museum collection, given it's small size and what has to be a relatively small budget. The

http://www.campblanding-museum.org/ My affinity for military museums is no secret, so when I was sent to Camp Blanding, Florida on official duty recently, I made sure to set aside a little time to check out the Camp Blanding Museum. Camp Blanding was a major training center for the Army during World War II and is now a Florida National Guard and Reserve training base.  By most

I am fully aware that I have not authored a blog post of substance in quite some time. It might be writers block. However, posting a Girls with Guns blog post requires no brain power, I just have to push a few buttons... so here we go and I hope I can break through this writers block soon.

I've always stayed away from politics on my blog. I've always wanted to highlight the positive, fun aspects of shooting sports and firearms collecting. However, now it just seems like things are getting too out of hand to not use this modest soapbox called My Gun Diary to try and change some minds and open some eyes about the events which have been unfolding over the past few years, not just in
