    What's the oldest (by date of manufacture) ammo you've fired or own?

    For me it is Polish surplus 7.62x25 ammo from the 50s. It is almost as old as I am, I've had no issues with it, shot four spam cans of it, still have a couple left.

    Braced Pistol stamp Watch Thread

    Two submitted Friday May 12th, a few hours apart had control numbers 684 apart. The second form was approved Tuesday July 25th by Kristan Miller. No news about the first one yet, but only like 75 days so far for it I used a "roll your own" fingerprint card kit from Amazon.

    Origin of "booger hook off the bang switch"?

    Don't know if it is relevant but the Garand safety is inside the trigger guard so having the gun on safe and finger in the trigger guard is "maximum readiness".

    Any point to owning a 9mm AK?

    I've got a 9mm AK that takes Glock mags. Other than the mags and caliber it handles exactly like any other AK. Minimal recoil and a lot less expensive to shoot, at our club we can shoot pistol caliber carbines and SBRs at the plate racks.

    Bullpup as home defense rifle?

    Of the two people I know who have actually fired a shot at a home intruder, both report never hearing the gun go off. One was a 4" .357 Mag, the other a 5.56 AR 15. Somehow in this stressful situation I doubt the "mushy trigger" will be noticed either. Both intruders fled, home owners...

    Are Amnesty Brace Registrations Proceeding During the Lawsuits?

    Does anyone know if the amnesty brace registrations are proceeding, or have they been put on hold by the lawsuits? Sent two in on May 12th that quickly went "submitted in process" and I got the pdf cover letters and mailed in home-rolled print cards that arrived before the ten day deadline...

    Panzer M4

    I thought the Panzer M4 was a Turkish knock-off of the Benelli "inertia" system.

    The Gun Is The Cheap Part!?!?

    If you practice regularly it doesn't take too long to spend more on practice ammo that you did on the gun.

    Holosun Red Dot w Chevron Reticle

    The main issue with "details" like chevrons and circle dots is they tend to attract your focus to their image which is counterproductive to using a red dot effectively, you have to look "thru" the dot and focus on the target. I do like circle dots because they are so easy to pick up but...

    What do you think ATF will do about Binary triggers

    Great, apply that logic to ARs and AKs. I don't hunt, so it is OK to ban hunting, right?

    Wishy washy ATF "ruling" clarification?

    How about some examples of the prosecutions? Our local news is full of felons caught with firearms again and not prosecuted by either the local DA or the Feds for this. They drop the 10 punishment crime and let them plead to a simple robbery charge and they are out in a year or two if that.

    What do you think ATF will do about Binary triggers

    This whole can of worms is why I was miffed the NRA rolled over on the Bump Stock ban. Any semi auto can be bump-fired if your grip is sloppy enough, lays the foundation for outlawing semi-autos. Haven't binary triggers been on some high end skeet guns for a long time?

    Wishy washy ATF "ruling" clarification?

    Funny how they never seem to prosecute "Felon in possession of a firearm" violations.

    Affordable 22LR (Lowest shipped pricing)

    I don't have an accurate way to measure them, and I may have jumped to a conclusion that it was OAL because I put them back into their plastic carrier and ran a course file over the tips to knock a little off and these all fed fine, so the obvious conclusion was OAL. But it may be a...

    Wishy washy ATF "ruling" clarification?

    NASA has been competent and effective at doing things that had never been done before, although the efficient part is debatable, since we used to joke we needed a pile of paperwork taller than the vehicle before we could launch it. But Musk and Bezos are showing that the private sector will...

    Affordable 22LR (Lowest shipped pricing)

    I hope Aguila has fixed this but I got 5000 rounds of their 40gr Super Extra Standard Velocity in the "normal" period between our most recent two shortages, and it is too long for many pistol mags particularly my Beretta Neos and Browning Buckmark. Lots of closing on an empty chamber because...

    PistolBrace Amnesty Registration, any "how to" Guides?

    I gave up and hit the back button. Left the "page" and logged in again. Everything seemed to have saved, and I got past the "electronic documents" page this time. Got my confirmation, all seems well. Now on to the fingerprint cards, I got a "kit from amazon", if this doesn't seem to work...

    PistolBrace Amnesty Registration, any "how to" Guides?

    I'm on the ATF site and at step 7 of 8 "electronic documents" Browser appears to be hung with a "spinning" animation. I don't believe as an individual applicant that I need to upload anything here. Frustration.

    Went to the DACA Gun Show at South Fork today

    Funny the same thing seems to have happened to the HGCA and their large shows at Reliant, now all they have are small shows at some venue in the "Heights" north of downtown.
