    Cleaning friends severly leaded 45/70 barrel.

    dont use steel brushes. brass only. brass doesnt damage the barrel like steel does. those tornado brushes are steel, but are relatively mild compared to regular steel brushes. use lots of solvent and let it sit wet for hours then brush it. repeat till its clean. might take a long...

    AR vs AK Pistol Ballistics

    cpileri, what i mean is the sound of the bullet. it begins its flight supersonic. it slows down due to air resistance. when the bullet velocity drops below the speed of sound its own sonic boom catches up with it and disrupts its flight. how much of a disruption i dont know. true...

    "I'd use a blowtorch to render it a pile of slag out of remorse for the family of said victim." ok, money where your mouth is time. would you buy ajax a new pistol to replace this one if he agrees to slag it? yeah, i thought not. a gun is a tool. if someone misuses it blame the user...

    .44 Mag out of a 12 Ga

    ive used the 38spl/357 mag adapter. havent used the 44 mag one yet. the pistol cartridges work fine in shotguns. they do not bang around exiting. they are accurate to pie plates at 50 yards but the drop is considerable so you have to adjust. yes, they are slightly quieter but i think...

    taking a felon shooting?

    pilman, you misunderstand. it was said by someone above that taking a felon shooting might result in them hurting or robbing someone. i stated that there was no chance of that because no one else would be there.

    taking a felon shooting?

    i think its humorous that people will automatically assume im dating the girl. i read the 922g section and it says somthing about the felon having to have spent over a year in jail/prison. since my friend spent only 30 days in county, would that make her able to go shooting? or is there...

    taking a felon shooting?

    ok, heres the situation. a friend who got into trouble 6 years ago wants to come out shooting. my question is if i would be breaking any laws letting her shoot with me. the guns would be mine and she would not be unsupervised. edit: i am in california.

    R Lee Ermey

    to the people who have met him, i believe the reason you feel somthing off tilt in him is because he is an actor. a good one. actors are strange people and many actors are down right disturbing even when they are friendly. ive studied acting a bit and have done some limited stage, film, and...
