    Bad Day ...Rust

    a really good way to destroy rust i found is take some oil and steel wool and gently rub it away. one of my dad's old .410's was covered in rust when i found it, and the finish was well long gone, so idk how it will affect ur finishes. you should definately look into putting a rustproof finish...

    armor piecing "military bullets" in Austin area, Texas report

    they are talking about bullets that hav a steel core instead of lead or watever else. that is why they call it armor piercing because the steel pierces the armor whereas the lead would just smash up against it denting it.

    .38 Special or .357 Magnum for self defense?

    im pretty sure .357 has a greater force to it, but either one would work. S&W makes revolvers that use both rounds that would be great for defense.

    Self Defense In An Apartment

    "If rubber bullets are sometimes fatal (Northern Ireland, Israel, etc.) why wouldn't rubber pellets be?" they can be lethal, but have a less chance then lead or steel. all kinds of loads are out there, just take ur pick of what you feel is best for you.
