The Truth About Guns

The Truth About Guns The truth about guns. No more, no less. We've been at it ever since.

The Truth About Guns was founded in February of 2010, to explore the ethics, morality, business, politics, culture, technology, practice, strategy, dangers and fun of guns. And apparently, we've struck a nerve, for our little site has grown exponentially, to serve up over 2 million page views. That's kind of remarkable, in that we've built the site on word-of-mouth, strong writing, and an attitude that you won't find anywhere else.
