South Carolina's GOP governor Ms. Nikki Haley received a Beretta PX4 Storm in 9MM for Christmas and shared
the news with the public. Mostly cheers followed. But of course a few jeers from the anti's.

As a followup, 12 hours later her Democratic opponent shared his shotgun story.

She needs to start bagging Coyotes with that thing.

Seeing as the Beretta PX4 Storm was the appropriate gift for a Governor that is currently wooing Beretta to relocate from Maryland to South Carolina, the shotgun is a pale and pathetic attempt.

The fact that the Storm has either 15 or 17 round mags (depending on whether compact or full size model) -- both of which are illegal to possess in Maryland -- the other implicit part of her message to Beretta is "you and your products are welcome here".

The shotgun brand wasn't even mentioned. I wonder if it is a "Crazy Uncle Joe Premier Home Defense Shotgun". You know, the one where you step onto the balcony and fire off into the air.

Well, sure helped Perry in the polls. Wonder how many folks think that actually happened? A one shot kill at 25 yd with a .380 LCP is mighty fine shooting, when you consider the size of the kill zone on a coyote ( 8" or so) and the heightened heart rate from jogging. I have a laser on my LCR but it doesn't seem to help me much at that distance. I wouldn't have taken the shot. (But, I wasn't running for office.)

And, to put in a plug in for the PX4, that's one of the best looking, sweetest shooting guns I've ever owned.
