Gun Crime, Pabst Blue Ribbon and Mikey on the Hamster Wheel

Gun Crime makes me sick. But just the “crime” part, not the “gun” part. The whole “about to vomit” thing comes from the fact that I can’t get my laparoscopic adjustable gastric band around the fact that… To me, that’s like believing you can wave a magic scepter to vanquish all of the Pabst Blue […]

About Tom McHale…

Hello, my name is Tom McHale. I'm the creator and primary author of the Insanely Practical Guides series of how-to books.

I also write lot's of articles for various shooting related magazines and websites. You'll find my work at Shooting Illustrated, Concealed Carry Magazine, Tactical Retailer Magazine, Beretta USA, OutdoorHub, GunsAmerica, American Handgunner Magazine, Bearing Arms, AmmoLand, The National Shooting Sports Foundation, Grand View Outdoors, and Shooting Sports Retailer Magazine.

I help explain complicated things in a fun and easy-to-understand way. I believe that things don't have to be so complicated, although I suppose excessive techno-jargon keeps lots of well-intentioned lawyers in business.

If you want to learn about the world of guns, shooting and the American way, check out some of my books. Have a laugh or two.
