I've sort of looked,but still confused.I was under the impression that you couldn't register any "new" machine guns.Such as,if you found your grand dads WW1 Thompson MG.But 2 shows on TV,the Red Jacket one and Gun Smoke show are pumping out MG's left and right and doing the "paper work" to make...

don't want to restart the 40 year old ammo fight,but wonder why some AR-15 makers still say their rifles can only shoot 223 ammo ?? I've read all the AR-15 forum stuff,BS,theories,dreams,ect. I've known folks who shoot mil-surp 5.56 in their 223 chambered rifles,have for 40 years without any ill...

not sure this goes here. was flipping thru the chanels the other day ,and on one of the "Swamp people/Swamp thing/Swamp brothers"was a couple of guys pulling 100 year old logs off the swamp bottom,and to dislodge them,they were making and using pipe bombs.I thought bomb building was a Federal...

often see threads asking if a cylinder from one Mod.29 can be used in another Mod.29. if timing is correct,ect,ect,ect. but I have seen black powder shooters swap cylinders in B/P pistols without any problems,especially the 1858 Rem. pistols.I have a spare cyl for my 1858 that I use ,have a club...

with all the hoopla about Rugers new LCP and compairing it with the Kel-Tec,I was wondering why you don't see a compairson with the North American Arms Guardian in .380? I've really never seen much talk,for or against the NAA pistol. jwr

was removing the crimp from some berdan primed 7.62X51 brass and got to wondering,if the crimped in primers on most military ammo is really needed.reason I ask is there must be tens of thousands of commercial and reloaded ammo shot in machine guns and (forgive me) assault weapons,without any...

been shooting BP pistols bunches of years,have read and still read all I can,one thing I have never had a good grip on is BP measurement.I know it's by volume.how does one relate volume to say 25gr of FFFG? to me 25grs. is a weight,something I can check and see.if I'm told to pile up 25grs. of...

was watching the news the other night,had a story about the increase in theft of large farm equipment,tractors,combines ect.,taking place in daylight hours.well,my first thought was,most farmers I know keep firearms around for pest and predator control,and if I was going to steel farmer John's...
