    2014!

    Can anyone confirm this? I read on another forum that only class 03 FFL holders will be allowed in for 2014.

    does anyone actually dislike the AR15?

    First impressions usually stick with you....that being said, the first AR I shot was in basic training in the Air Force. I detested it then and I really don't like it any better now. Just my opinion.

    Why shorter BBL have more recoil?

    A short barreled revolver has less mass(weight) and a long barreled revolver tends to soak up the recoil to a point. My 686 Smith has a 6" barrel and it smacks hard. My 44Mag Ruger single action has a 7.5" barrel that pushes on ignition. Heavy bench rest rifles hardly recoil at all with small...

    I filled out my survey this morning. I asked about making a bolt action specialty pistol in rifle calibers.

    Do you own any type of 10/22 rifle?

    My 10/22 has a Shilen drop-in bull barrel and the stock is a black laminate thumb hole model. Shoots just fine....even the cheap Rem yellow bullets.

    XD-S

    Looked for one at the local gun show this past weekend. No such luck..... all of the dealers (locals) said there wouldn't be any in the Las Vegas area until late August. Can't wait to get my hands on one.

    Do you own any type of 10/22 rifle?

    Yep, my 10/22 has a Shilen bull barrel and Fajen thumbhole laminated stock. It's topped with a 4X Redfield scope.

    7x57 versus 7-08

    It's similar to why there are three different and separate loading tables for the .45-70. The ammo manufacturers want to limit their responsibility if Joe Sixpack loads rounds meant for Ruger #1's and fires them in an 1870's vintage trapdoor Springfield. Yes, I've noticed that the latest...

    Worst myths you've heard about guns which are meant to scare the general public?

    How about those "terrible exploding bullets" that are often portrayed on TV. Funny how people keep re-electing the likes of Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer. Those that do deserve them! Know when a politician is lying? Their lips are moving.

    Cable Gun Shows - Which is the worst?

    American Guns by far the worst of the worst.....unless you want them to build you a punt gun...

    Top Shot (Season 4)

    My best guess about the carrying of backpacks is strictly for effect. Kinda like your favorite TV hunter carrying one when he never ventures further than 10 yards from his pickup.

    How do you use the High Road?

    As far as I'm concerned THR is the Encyclopedia Britannica of shooting on the web. I enjoy the interaction of like-minded folks. It makes me thankful for where I live and sorry for those who live in a non gun-friendly state. Good luck with your thesis.
