Oregon: Portland's gun control idea misses target Portland Mayor Sam Adams has proposed a number of ill conceived gun control ordinances, most straight out of the gun ban lobby's play book.

San Francisco: City?s only gun shop fights to reopen As city authorities prepare today to consider the request of High Bridge Arms to be allowed to sell guns at retail in San Francisco, the Mission District has become ground zero for the larger issues surrounding gun control. Texas: Gun shop owners favor allowing handguns for younger Americans East Texans' love for their guns and the gun sports and hobbies they're used for is well known. But not everyone can participate based on age requirements for handguns. Now, the National Rifle Association hopes to change that. Casey Evans, co-owner of Evans Brothers Gun Store and Range in Huntington, believes they can do it. "The NRA is the largest lobbying group in the country and probably the most successful," he said. North Carolina: Midway debates change to town discharge ordinance About 30 people who showed up at the Midway Town Council meeting Tuesday evening spoke out against a proposed change to the town's current gun law.

Obama's backdoor gun ban President Obama is afraid of the M1 Garand, the U.S. rifle that helped win World War II, defeating Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan.

NRA CHALLENGES CONSTITUTIONALITY OF FEDERAL HANDGUN BAN FOR LAW ABIDING 18-20 YEAR OLDS San Francisco: Groups mobilize to deny permit to gun store San Francisco's only gun store could lose its permit to sell guns at a hearing today.

Texas: Carrollton City Council debates gun shops Guns took center stage at Tuesday evening's City Council meeting. Specifically, they talked about Big Slim's Firearms, which upset some residents when it opened last week across the street from houses and in the same mini mall as a liquor store. Council member Terry Simons proposed a new ordinance -- to be discussed at a future meeting -- that would restrict future gun shops from opening near liquor stores and certain other retail establishments. Venezuela to introduce new rules on gun ownership The National Assembly will pass a law in the next few days that will prohibit anyone from carrying weapons in public, ban those younger than 25 from owning a gun, and limit the number of bullets a person can carry to 25. Venezuela's current gun laws date back to 1928. The National Assembly is controlled by Socialist allies of leftist President Hugo Chavez.
