    How many types of magazine-before-trigger handguns are there?

    there was a smith and wesson designed lever action pistol that gave rise to the winchester repeater. the KRiSS. there are tons of target pistols built that way. I cant think of anything other than the KRiSS that is modern and it is realy just a terribly small sub machine gun

    Got My First M&P Auto

    I just got an m&p .40. took it out of the box, put a few drops of lube here and there and proceeded to go through my annual firearms recert with it. flawless. It has performed perfectly for me. If the slide is not staying back it would either indicate it is not going all the way back under...

    Boycott Bank of America

    JP Morgan Chase Allows its employees in bank branches to concealed carry if the state allows and they are properly certified. Very few employees do carry but they are allowed to at least.

    M16 in Afghanistan

    what sucks in a-stan is the long range engagements from mountain side to mountain side. The DMs and m240s can reach out with authority. the mk262 out of a 20" barrel with optics will do very well, the guys with a 14.5" m4 and a red dot CCO are gonna have some trouble. While the m4 is awesome...

    Is an ACOG worth it?

    The biggest question no one seems to have raised is whether you want/need the magnification. If you do then the acog is a very sturdy piece of equipment for the job. If you do not then I think you might find an aimpoint very easy to get along with.

    Body Armor: ridiculous or prudent?

    If I hear a bump in the night i go check it out with nothing but a pair of boxers or pj pants and a flashlight. I live in a town where the last murder was a couple of years ago and was the first one for almost a decade as far as i have heard. When I lived in Racine I lived in the bad area and...

    What do I need to switch barrels on a Savage?

    If you have one of the new savages you need a pipe wrench and a new nut. The smooth nut is hard to torque properly anyway so just use the pipe wrench to remove it and replace it with one of the old style grooved nuts and a wrench designed for them.

    Winchester, Remington, Savage, Weatherby, Sako, or CZ bolt actions?

    Savage 111 (blued), 116 (stainless) if you want polymer stock, and 114 if you want wood stock. 30-06 is a very versatile and easy to find all-round hunting round. You can find a round suited to just about anything in this caliber. The savage package deals are an excellent entry level...

    XCR or AR15 + mods?

    if you are in such a world perhaps the best thing you could have is an ak47 or 74 so that you can fire all the 762x39 and 545x39. If you want rugged dependability just get an ak. Im not a big ak fan but if im living in a world where spare parts are an issue I want the rifle that can survive 20...
