… I am a gun enthusiast, not a military arms dealer …

I have enjoyed running this blog and getting to know the gun blogger community. Thanks for all your encouragement.

And thanks to all the readers who took time to participate in discussions and let me know about interesting content to post.

A special thanks to Michigan Slugger for contributing the excellent article Accurate Slug Shooting Made Easy and my brother who frequently helps me with the blog (often correcting my awful spelling that my blog client fails to pick up on).

A few months ago the bug finally bit me and I love it! My husband was thrilled and bought me a Glock 17. I decided to blog about my entry into the gun culture and start shooting IDPA competitively (wow, I suck).

You can check out my blog at www.prettypistolera.com

AAC Rimfire Suppressor.

I hope more and more businesses in the firearm industry start blogging and actively join in the gun blogging community.

If you have any problems with the blog please let me know.

Thanks.

I am still loaded with more work that I can handle, so posting is going to be restricted to one post / day, for the next couple of week.

Sorry about any inconvenience.

Unfortunately I will not have internet access so will be unable to respond to email.

Have a great New Year and a prosperous 2008!

I had a very interesting interview James Clark from Magpul about their new Masada rifle and will be posted that soon.

Unfortunately I will not have internet access for most of the time I am away and I will not be able to respond to email.

I will be getting back into the blogging in the next few days!

Many more photos here.

Advertising that promotes firearms or weapons of any kind is not allowed.

Neither does yahoo:

We will not show results on pages that contain problematic content, including but not limited to:
….
Weaponry, ammunition, fireworks or explosives

Nor does google:

Sales or promotion of weapons or ammunition (e.g., firearms, fighting knives, stun guns)

Google’s restriction is only restricted to sales but this has not stopped them from banning gun bloggers.

Unfortunately gun bloggers are out of luck with Microsoft, Yahoo and Google: the mainstream advertising network.

the content of your site is largely focused on firearms, the site is not a good fit for the AdSense program.

I just realized that Google itself advertises on it’s own ’site largely focused on firearms’! The Google Groups rec.guns group!

Here is a screenshot of Google ads on one of the rec.guns posts:

If this isn’t a double standard I do not know what is.
