I'll list mine...they are conservative, mainly news blogs:

http://www.littlegreenfootballs.com (http://www.coxandforkum.com run their editorial cartoons as an affilliate for em).

http://www.michellemalkin.com

http://www.powerline.com

http://www.jihadwatch.org

I also watch http://www.dailykos.com because they like taking LGF out of context or taking the extreme posters to heart.

+1 on all those.

I can't get jihadwatch to work on an RSS feed, though.

Other gun blogs I peruse:

http://mrcompletely.blogspot.com/
http://smallestminority.blogspot.com/
http://www.alphecca.com/

Off the top of my head, the gun blogs I like:

http://booksbikesboomsticks.blogspot.com/

A blog by a hot woman who works in a gun store. What's not to like?

http://xavierthoughts.blogspot.com/

Cool blog by a male critical care nurse who also does some gunsmithing on the side.

Another blog I frequent:

http://www.two--four.net/weblog.php

Billy's not for everyone, but damn if he doesn't call it exactly like he sees it. He takes no comments, but is a fun read. NOT P.C.

Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, writes a really fascinating blog. He occasionally comments on Dilbert (mostly censorship issues) but mostly focuses on taking really complex problems and applying simple solutions to them and watching his visitors go nuts in the commenting area.

One of his more prevalent hypothesizes: There is no such thing as free will.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned "Captain's Quarters" as he is apparently rather well known and a Minnesotan:

http://www.captainsquartersblog.com/

Since Dave Barry "retired", the only way to catch his humor is via his blog (when "24" is on the air, the episode recaps are outstanding):

+1 Jihad Watch

http://www.armscontrolwonk.com/
Arms control as in nukes.

http://olegvolk.livejournal.com/
For the photographs of the guns and young ladies holding them.

http://coxandforkum.com/
For the cartoons.

And wandering a bit far http://arstechnica.com/index.ars to get my computer arch fix from Jon Stokes. The man knows his stuff better then 90% of the grad students I have talked to, and his has a Ph.D. in History.

An intelligent, thoughtful, amusing pro-gun blogger. His volume has dropped to near zero since the election (I think he's quite demoralized), but the archives are excellent.

John Farnam
http://www.defense-training.com/quips/quips.html
It's not, strictly speaking, a blog, but John Farnam's "quips, quotes and lessons learned from the field" has all sorts of interesting and useful info about arms, self defense and the history of war.
(Oh, yeah. I made this into an RSS feed for my own convenience: http://www.ponyfish.com/feeds/9929XxkfdxTj )
