1) M1A 2) Garand 3) SKS (you have this covered) 4) Remington 795 or Ruger 10/22 (these will help you learn to maximize the effectiveness of our rifles above) The SU-16 will be a huge disappointment for you, as I suspect the Remington pump action. Neither of these rifles are designed to...

Slappy, Your program already exists. It is the Appleseed Project www.appleseedinfo.org. Over 350 events for 2009, and near 800 for 2010, well established and nearly universally available. About 10,000-12,000 people going through the program in 2009, with about 2000 participating on the...

find an Appleseed Shoot near you. http://www.appleseedinfo.org By the end of Sunday, you will have worked out some issues in all your position shooting.

Appleseed does not have videos. At $70 for the course (Free for women and children under 21), a family can attend pretty cheaply. Appleseed is non-profit, all volunteer. Here is a link with some good info, may help you out some. http://appleseedshoot.blogspot.com/

Interesting how the detractors above have not been to an Appleseed event, and chose to be critical of a single person in a program that has thousands involved, over 300 events nation wide and is making great progress at getting people out, active and energized......yep, our biggest threat is not...

Here is their web site http://www.appleseedinfo.org Here is some press coverage of them http://www.appleseedinfo.org/news.htm Here is a good site that explains how to be better prepared for one. http://appleseedshoot.blogspot.com/ I'll let others tell you about their experience at an...

Hey RX, make sure you send several friends in your stead ;) That way, when the next one gets brought up (and we hope to have 4-6 here next year), Ft. Bliss folks will be eager to do more shoots :D You can still make it a good shoot, by spreading the word.

The Second Amendment can be legislated out! Just like the fact that they can legislate the fact that all politicians can steal your wife and daughters for their own sex slaves at any time. Like they can legislate the fact that they can shoot you on site, just because they don't like the...

The 20" barrel will give you fragmentation with mil-spec ball ammo out to about 200-250 yards. 16" barrel to about 100-150 yards 14" barrel ? I don't know what to tell you about commercial soft-point ammo, perhaps looking at velocity charts and expansion rates from some manufacturers...

Hey All, There is an Appleseed Shoot at Ft. Bliss, Rod and Gun, on October 18-19! This is a great facility, plenty of covered room for the firing line. Room to go to 500 yards, so bring the 22 for the 25 meter portion, and a centerfire for actual distance. Here is a link for more...

The Cheese state is really picking up speed on the Appleseed trail! I imagine this is the last one for the season up there, unless there is plans for a "snowsuit shoot" ;)

You can join RWVA via internet or mail http://www.rwva.org If you shoot at an Appleseed Shoot, that meets the marksmanship/shooting requirement. If you already have met the shooting requirement, in other ways, you an still join RWVA to meet the club requirement. The fee is $20. While...

The above mentions of Appleseed are pretty good. You can get more information and look at the national tour schedule here http://www.rwva.org Thanks

You will find both the AR and M1A rifles very nice, but two different tools designed for different jobs. You mentioned Appleseed, and some shooting competitions. If one is interested in getting into serious competition, you will do yourself a disservice to try to buy the "best...

They deserve what they accept....in the case of liberal cities, what they DEMAND! Hey, if you come to my house, you live by my rules. If you want to live by your rules, take care of yourself. If you are "ordered" to leave, and you 'choose' to use government funded programs, you live by...
