    When did a Mini 14 become an assault rifle

    As crazy as it sounds, I don't really believe in the rubber stamp term "assault rifle". If someone points a rifle of any kind at me, it's an "assault rifle", be it a chipmunk .22, I feel assaulted! To blatenly call a rifle "assault", because of the way it looks, is just out there. I don't...

    Update on kiddo's cardiologist appointment

    For those that did not see the original post, my 6 year old was scheduled to see a pediatric cardiologist for a possible heart valve being restricted or collapsed. The appt. was on halloween, so it was a busy day as you can imagine. I've worried, had sleepless nights, not eating right (you...

    Horrible news today

    I'm really hoping after the appointment.... I can post on here feeling embarrassed because it was a false alarm. With all the thoughts and prayers I truly hope it happens. I am a nervous wreck, as you can imagine. Today we went to a friends for a cookout. We spent loads of time running my...

    Horrible news today

    Thank you everyone for the kind words, information, and prayers. Sorry I did not clarify what was going on. With this flu thing she had, she would start coughing, then fall back unresponsive for a few seconds. The coughing and being unresponsive has continued after the fever/flu and...

    Horrible news today

    Thank you very much. I'm really not in a right frame of mind now to be posting anything, as you can understand. Tired, can't sleep, searching the internet for information.

    Horrible news today

    I have been a little busy lately doing house remodeling and have not been on the forum much. Now a really bad health issue has hit my family. After a doc appt. today, my youngest daughter has been scheduled to see a pediatric cardiologist at Childrens in Oklahoma City. The earliest the appt...

    Kimber - are they still to be avoided?

    I own a Custom TLE RL/II and love the pistol. I carry it for work and have no regrets. Ok, well, it's takes more time to clean than a Glock and I wipe it down after I get rained on. I shoot it better and is more comfortable to hang on too, it fits. The malfunctions I've had were due to...

    Polygonal rifling does it matter to you?

    I really don't care what it is. I don't know how many rounds of reloaded cast bullets my friends and I have put down barrels on Glocks. I never really noticed much buildup in the barrel. Of course, we would shoot a few jacketed bullets every now and then while shooting. On the flip side of...

    thinking of a 10/22 suggestions

    10/22's are fun, and you'll find yourself shooting loads of ammo. My 9 year old can hit a 3" gong at 100 yards with a cheapy 3-9X40 scope, along with bowling pins (benchrest). I don't recall the grouping when on paper though. She was shooting my rifle, bull barrel, scope, VQ internals. The...

    Monday will be rough

    When shooting the MP5... She did have the squishies in her ears. And, it is suppressed. The ammo was subsonic so it did not really make any loud crack. The particular sling on the MP5 is a 3 point and not really good for a hasty hold. That is a SWAT weapon and not used for long range...

    Is This All I'd Need to Start Reloading?

    From what I read on the site, looks like a pretty good deal. I will say I am not a fan of single stage presses. I have 2 dillons and won't go back. I loaded single stage with my father when I was a child (and the teen years), but I've now graduated to progressive. while growing up, my...

    Ammo shortage squeezes police forces

    "In Oklahoma City, for example, officers cannot qualify with AR-15 rifles because the department does not have enough .223-caliber ammunition — a round similar to that fired by the military’s M-16 and M4 rifles. Last fall, an ammunition shortage forced the department to cancel qualification...

    Switchblade

    I have a few automatic knives. Great idea, but not practical. I've carried them on duty, had a couple make nice slices in my pants. If the safety is used, just one more step and slow's you down getting it open. If your looking for a novelty, go for it. Everyone likes to play with them...

    Is it just me or is there a conspiracy going on?

    The sandbox has created a limited supply of .223. The last thousand I bought was $139.00, that was 2 years ago (I think, maybe 3). Heck, if I could find it for that now, I'd buy 5 or 6 thou. That was for 55grain fmj.

    How Many Change Carry Guns?

    I opted for different guns. Actually, I'm only allowed to carry two guns, my Glock 22 and Kimber 1911. Those are the only two I I took and qual'd with thru my dept. I usually carry my Glock (when I carry) unless I travel. Then I carry my Kimber and have the Glock in the vehicle. A State...

    Monday will be rough

    I'm not so proud that I won't take advice. Heck, I'll take advice from anyone that can shoot well! And this lady can shoot WELL! I've been trying the stance that she showed, and pushed, twisted, pulled me into (which was kinda fun in itself). I just don't feel right, been shooting in one...

    Monday will be rough

    Ha ha ha.... Yes, she is an amazing shot and we had a good time at the range. The AR pic, she just popped in a mag and getting ready to shoot. Would be nice if she could stay longer, but wants to go to other places in America. She said she will return next August. Well, actually..... We...
