The African Serval wildcat is still running loose in Decatur. The animal, probably not a threat to adults, but very much a potential threat to small children and pets, was a private "pet" owned by, well, this guy in Decatur. Yeah. That guy. Here's the story from WCIA: DECATUR, Ill.…
Good news breaking out all over. Alec Baldwin gets to sweat a felony in New Mexico. Purchasing some ammo today didn't result in an ammo background check at a notable retailer. And I'm saving the best for last: The Illinois State Police have taken down the ammunition caliber tracking function…
Poor Alec Baldwin. He just can't catch a break. He shot and killed his Director of Photography and wounded someone else on his low-budget film set in New Mexico back in 2021. Prosecutors eventually charged him with serious crimes but then charges were dropped. He probably thought he was gonna…
So one of our members heard about a "Flightless Honor Flight" coming to the Mattoon-Charleston area. He got some additional information nailing down a time and a place. We're sharing this for those who don't want to make the trip in person because of health/medical issues. This is your chance…

Steve Inman does a great job "narrating" fight and crime videos, leaving his audience in stitches laughing so hard. He recently did the Chicago video of the couple coming out of a high-dollar hotel only to face an armed robber. I've added a few others that are particularly amusing. Some…
How could this have happened? Belgium has some pretty strict gun control laws. Yet a violent Muslim started shooting people in Brussels, killing two and wounding an unknown number of others before running away. Police have yet to catch him, but rest assured, they'll be looking for him. Attack…
Got kids or grandkids? Want to teach them to actually hit targets with a shotgun AND give them a chance to go hunting for some pheasants? I've got something for you then! It looks like a combination Wingshooting class (they're awesome, by the way!) and an afternoon Pheasant hunt after…
We're not sure why, although we can offer a couple of solid guesses, but the Lake City Army Ammunition plant has cancelled civilian contracts to sell excess 5.56mm ammo production. Why should you care? Well, Lake City ammo typically makes up about 30% of American civilian ammunition. Take away 30%…
