Yes, it would but I just met him at the range and don't know his name or how to contact him. IF I ever bump into him again, I'll find out what happened and post it here.

Yes! As a matter of fact they do! It's even camo colored! Funny, the real stuff that I used was always white just like regular TP. :)

I think you answered your own question. It's finally become cool to be a soldier again instead of them being spit at as so many of my generation were. I've noticed that the Tacti-Cool movement seems to largely be people that were never in the service AND never got to play "war" as children...

I have a Marlin '97 (the predecessor of the model 39). Mine was made in about 1912 and the rifling is almost completely gone but it's still accurate and it's one of my favorite shooters. In fact, I like it better than my BLR 22 and 9422. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another if I could find one...

Frankly I think this law will only be the first step. First, as several of you have already pointed out, if the ATF is notified that someone has bought more than two guns then they will have to investigate and that means eventually going and asking the buyer if he still has them and what he...

I agree with RW. There was no such thing as a .308 Jungle Carbine. Since there were very few SMLEs even built in .308, the are chances are about 99% that that rifle was converted to .308 from .303. In addition, MOST of the Jungle carbines that I find aren't even originals, they're earlier model...

I just read the article at the link above and also found that Sabre had been raided by the ATF. I suspect that had more then a little to do with them shutting down! The article said that everyone leaving the building and all their automobiles were searched. Anybody have any idea what they were...

Not exactly shooter's but plenty of gun related ancestors. I'm related to the Rigdon of Leech & Rigdon, manufacturers of handguns for the CSA. My step father was direct descendant of Oliver Hazard Perry who earned the title "Hero of Lake Erie" for leading American forces in a decisive...

I 2nd CraigC's recommendations but I'll add a suggestion. A lot of dealers want an arm and a leg for out of print books (not necessarily OLD books, just out of print) but if you search the internet you can frequently find them in somebody's stock at the original price. For example I just bought...

Hmm. Maybe the young "man" spent too much time listening to Chuck Schumer, Nancy Polisi, Sarah Brady and the rest of that ilk!

It's hard to tell the sizes from the picture but the LH part looks like the rammer for seating primers. The center items look like a depriming punch and case expander combined. Since you say it's marked .30 M1 then they should be for the M1 carbine case. The item on the RH side are shell...

Well what do you expect! It is CANADA after all. I was born there but there's a reason that I don't live there!

I'm waiting for the OP to state his case before speculating. FWIW I do know of couple of people that have been charged with DUI on a bicycle and one more that was charged with reckless driving so that's not just a rumor.

Spikes is located in Apopka Florida just outside of Orlando. They sell a LOT of ARs in this area. Probably well over half the ARs at any local gun show have Spikes' receivers. No body else even comes close to selling an AR for the same kind of money. Helped a buddy of mine buy one last week...

I have two of these that were legally imported in the '60s before the '68 GCA. The name on mine is Xthos. (sp?) I think they may have also imported them with another name on them but I'm not sure. I don't remember where they were built but I don't think is was Switzerland. I have ammo too but...
