    How do you dispose of Rimfire ammo?

    Dude, it's a freakin' .22 round. Burn it, trash it or hit it with a freakin' hammer. It's silly threads like this that make me question posting here.

    Spent Cartridges flying over 3yds

    My SKS chucks em' like 20 feet in the air and 15 feet away from me. Almost scary shooting it under a covered bench, I got some poor guy with one and it left a knot on his head.

    AK Vs. SKS

    If you are a russian soldier, which rifle would you rather go to war with, a fixed magazine 10 round semiauto rifle or a detachable magazine fully automatic rifle? I'll take spray and pray in any wartime situation, thank you. Now, as a range plinking rifle, i'll take an SKS over the AK and an...

    Best 9mm ammo brands

    I like the RWS orange box at Wal-Mart. About $12 a box and it's loaded to NATO specs, makes my Hi Point 995 very happy.

    How do you dispose of Rimfire ammo?

    This question really needed to be asked? If I picked up all the unfired .22 at my local range I could probably fill up a couple Federal 550 round boxes. If worrying about things like that is what makes a responsible gun owner then count me out.

    Ear Protection

    I can't stand hearing protection. Plugs is the most i'll use. Thats shooting big bore rifles. Nothing fancy, just some blue Winchester branded plugs from Wal-Mart. Muffling the sound takes away from the experience. I also like loud fireworks...

    Settled on a Super Sniper but what power?

    I've got a 20x that came on my Howa 1500 .300 Win Mag...Really wish it was a 10x, 20x is just toooo much for anything under 500 yards. I plan to keep it for a future AR build but it's going to be replaced before this years deer season kicks off, I want something around a 4-12x for hunting...

    Public or Private Range

    Public, always. 5 miles back in the woods on a dead end road with 5 covered shooting benches, only 100 yards though. No way am I paying $150 a year plus a mandatory NRA membership, while having some range officer tell me how to shoot. I go out every November into the deep woods filled with...

    Hi-Point Firearms - A different take

    I agree 100%, Hunterdad. Just their customer service alone should win the hearts of every man and woman here, they are a model of what every company should offer. Not even to mention that their guns aren't really bad at all, and their carbines are downright excellent. Can't understand how...

    another Hi-Point thread

    Actually I believe a Hi Point Hater sawed that one in half, I remember hearing of some jerk that did that to a perfectly good gun. That looks waaay to clean to be caused by shooting. Edit: Send it back to Hi Point, you'll get basically a brand new gun!

    Gun Snobs lighten up!

    I love my Hi Point 995 rifle, and any man or woman that dare heckle me at the range can either put up or shut up. As far as HP pistols go, my LGS can barely keep them on the shelf, and he's only had a complaint from one person. Same goes for the rifles. The day I bought mine if I had...

    favorite non-target targets

    Lava lamps. Looks like a firework going off. Only when shooting stuff in a dump though, wouldn't want to blow glass all over a real range.

    Threshhold for hearing protection

    Wow - You guys would die if you knew the things I do. I shoot .22LR (and in most cases, much larger rounds) without hearing protection, turn the radio up to 100 anytime i'm in the car and whenever I go to a concert I stand right in front of the speaker stack for the best sound. I'll be deaf by...

    Federal 9mm fmj, $9.97 per 50 rbd box

    Our Wal-Mart doesn't even carry Federal 9mm. Only WWB, Remington UMC and the new RWS Orange Box. I buy the RWS because it shoots the best, and is loaded alittle hotter (NATO spec) than the other two. All three sell for around $13 a box. I guess as long as they keep getting Federal .300 Win...

    Anyone still into and shooting SKS's ??

    Picked up a Norinco a few weeks ago...I really like it but I haven't got to shoot it much. Got to kill a monster water moccasin the first day I bought it.

    Hi Point customer service

    How you people can call the 995/995TS ugly and glorify the Kel-Tec Sub2k is beyond me. The Hi Points might as well be a Da Vinci sculpture compared the the Kel-Tec. Maybe my eyes are just weird.

    What Happened To Maglite?

    Eh, I think thats the problem. They haven't kept up with other flashlight makers. It's pretty bad when a 9 LED $4.99 chinese piece of crap makes a maglight look like an oil lamp. I'll give them build quality - the body of my maglight is bulletproof (Although the LED bulb in mine had to be...
