    Rifleman's assault weapon

    http://www.angelfire.com/art/enchanter/rpg.html This is the best source I can find on the thing--scroll down a bit over half way--and it's only a couple of paragraphs. I'm looking to put a source for the thing in my bookmarks, but haven't been able to find anything, even on Wikipedia...

    AR-10 big bores

    "Big bore" meaning over .40. And AR-10s, not AR-15s. Big bores for the -15s have been hashed over repeatedly here, as the last hour of searching showed. I remember reading somewhere a thread about a few big bores intended for the big brother of the AR family. I couldn't find it though, so it...

    My turn to post a story.

    The rail gun was a mish-mash. While the design in his hands, and the capacitors to make it work, were well beyond earth’s current technology, the gun had the feel of the old Springfield rolling block guns Ben had in his collection. The plastic stock had been patterned to look like wood, and...

    An idea, post Heller

    Bear with me, I'm being optimistic here, and skipping a lot of legalese that would go into a polished bill, while Whereas the Supreme Court has held the Second amendment to be an individual right, this historical opinion supports this decision, quoting various stuff, Congress enacts a Second...

    Foam darts

    I've seen these at the stores, and just tonight did a bunch of surfing. I found a lot of good reviews, but finally found the manufacturer's site. http://www.buzzbeetoys.com/USglobal/RSAirBlasters/index.html There's a motorized semi auto, as well as a lever action and a SxS. Some really cool...

    .50 AE necked down?

    I had an idea, thinking a bit about a near future scenario, and how to equip a power armored warrior. With the power armor, recoil and other issues are much less of an issue, and power needs to go up anyway for penetration. One thought was to put an 8 or 10 inch barrel on a desert eagle. It...

    M1 carbine wildcats

    I got curious about this, after reading those threads on the carbine, and seeing that a .45ACP fits loosely(VERY loosely) in the magazine. It's much too short, but I was looking at the fact that it fit at all. Got me wondering, so I pulled out the gun, made some measurements, and did a little...

    What do you put on that rail?

    Was in the toy store the other day. Happened to go by the Nerf guns between the Legos and Mega Blocks, and the paltry selection of remote control cars and such. The most amusing sight met my eyes, and I thought that I just had to snap a phone pic and bring this item of amazement here to show...

    Dardick pistol question

    I'm throwing it here since there was a revolver made, but it might work better in general. I'm working on something for a project I'd like to do eventually, and I was having difficulty with the loading of the gun mechanism. It's a railgun, to let that out now. Anyway, I was looking at ways...

    damascus barrel question

    Something smells funny about that idea. I'm not really qualified to say much though, but just lining the barrel I don't think would be enough. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damascus_steel Someone here have a wiki account that would care to fix it?

    Reifsnider Natural Area, MO this saturday

    I'm heading down with some family and friends, weather permitting, and thought some people here might like to join us. We plan to get to the range by ten, and shoot for two or three hours. THought I'd see if anyone else was interested.

    the false lead

    This was something I saw this week, and wasn't able to find much on here. http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/04/18/updates-on-virginia-tech/ Scroll down to "Questions on the First Attack." The blog entry links to a NYT article, but they require you to register, so I can't paste it...

    Something relating to "right to protection"

    http://www.wlky.com/news/12629015/detail.html How would things like this apply in connection with the "no right to police protection" rulings, and the VA Tech killings?

    strict scrutiny

    I"ve mentioned this in a couple of the Parker threads. Having read a bit on it, I was wanting to get some info on how it works, and how it would apply to gun laws post-Parker if we win. I found the Wiki article to pretty much match what I'd heard, though it says it probably has issues...

    gun poster idea

    A fire extinguisher in it's case, with the usual "break glass in case of fire" blurb. Similar case right next to it holding an MP5 or something, saying "break glass in case of homocidal maniac" or something similar. If you can zoom out enough while still letting the messages be read, you can...

    statistical studies for D.C.

    Parker stands a good chance of destroying the DC gun ban. Is there an effort being made to be ready to collect data on this? It's rarely happened that a ban like this ends, and I think it would be a good idea to be looking at the right stuff, so that we can point out the drop in crime that...

    proposed amendment(defining interstate commerce)

    I'm not particularly interested in hearing about Congress. From what I've read in the Constitution, you need 35 state legislatures to pass the amendment to propose it. You then need 38 to ratify it, and it becomes law. While Congress can be involved, I don't think Congress would appreciate us...

    Funny thought

    I've seen a couple of Oleg posters that had old revolvers with multiple barrels with a multi layer cylinder, with capacities ranging into the dozens. I don't suppose they make modern repros or versions in modern calibers? Might be amusing considering some of the political shenanigans lately...

    Commerce clause

    We've heard of Wickard v. Filburn, but I have an epiphany in my American Politics class. The textbook mentioned a case by the name of Gibbons v. Ogden in 1824. Curious, I went ahead and checked out a book summarizing "leading cases on the Constitution" to quote the title. This was originally...

    need a short essay critiqued

    This is something I'm looking to post places to raise opposition for 1022(ironic that a bill to ban guns has the number of one). Let me know if anything needs modifying. Stick and Stones May Break My Bones... But words will never help. And that's all a law is, words. A law can only be...
