    the state of my local gunshops, disturbing.

    My local shop told me I could fire .308 winchester in a .30-06 and a .30-06 inside a .300 win mag, depending on what my target was and how much recoil I wanted. Needless to say I stopped going.

    Suppressed 223

    Any way a New Yorker...not from NYC, could get a suppressor for his M-4?

    Free float question

    Well congrats on picking a great rifle and the .308. You have a few options when it comes to free floating the barrel but it might be good to ask "do i need to"?. The point of making it free floating is to increase accuracy, if your gun shoots great now...don't worry and be happy, if not keep...

    wooden furnature on AR

    HAHA, I kind of like it, it might keep the hippie liberals off our backs with the end of the "big-bad-black gun". But I do like my black plastic AR more.

    Underwater Submachine Gun

    That things got to be so inaccurate and have such a limit of use that I don't think anyone would ever use it. Divers would be better using a cheap spear gun which doesn't release a massive could of bubbles and a create a shock wave that would probably hurt like...well you get it...every time...

    AR15: I know chrome-lined is better but...

    Heres a nice little trick to see if its chromed. Take a Q-tip and putit in the tip of the barrel about 2 inches down, take a look. The white tick and cotton ball at the end of the Q-tip will reflect the light in the room or off a flashlight very well and if you see a very shinny...

    .308 Silver Bear ammo?

    So I was searching the net for cheap ammo, I was just wondering what you all thought of Silver Bear .308win 145grn SJSP ammo for target shooting up to about 300 yards. I am also wondering what you all thought about the powder/copper fouling and any other remarks about the ammo. The cheapest I...

    Safer cartridge portfolio

    Look before you load the gun. Simple...guns are dangerous and all aspects of handling and firing a gun should require your attention. The question you ask is similar to asking " what can I do to make sure my bullets don't shoot to far and kill someone?" The answer to both is to think before...

    Wolf Ammo?

    I shoot it almost exclusively at the range and practicing days. It never fails to fire or extract under normal conditions. I have had problems however when shooting until the gun is hot then setting it down with a round in the chamber until the barrel cooled. I think it is a problem with the...

    ar 15 questions

    The bohica rocks. Gingerbreadman gave good info for ya to look at also. As for the .50 BMG Bohica...they weigh the gun down more but shooting them is pretty easy. If you have ever shot a heavy turkey load from a 12ga shotgun its very similar, the 50 might be slightly more potent but the...

    next gun for son?

    .17 HMR. Very accurate, wont break the bank to buy the rifle or ammo, great on small game and for target shooting, almost zero recoil, relitavly quite so he can shoot all day without bugging you or the nebhours (if you have any). I would not get a 12 year old a center fire rifle because kids...

    Sign the Petition against the Assault Weapons Ban!

    Done.... Killers don't follow laws..but I do. Take away my guns and I can't stop my killer. "Outlaw guns and only outlaws will have guns" Don't remember the author. More people have died in Ted Kennedy's car then by my gun. I go to a technical college (where myself and only a few other...

    New York AR-15 laws

    So i recently purchases a bushmaster and wanted to buy a collapsable stock when a friend of mine told me it was illegal in New York (that being that I don't have any special licenses or FFL...). So fellow THR residents whom are aware of the screwy/S!@t gun laws in New York, what do you tell me...

    fastest gun?

    I was just wondering what the fastest firing firearms are, small arms through vulcan style cannons. If you make a claim, please include a web URL or other proof. Also, I am aware of the electronic/magnetic firearms, not very interested in them because they are still only prototypes (a nice...

    Service Life

    A life time if you treat them properly. Keep them clean and well lubricated and you will hardly ever "out shoot" the guns mechanical parts. Barrels will be worn out over time, but a new barrel jobs are pretty cheap and will be few-and-far-between if you keep the guns clean and dry. War...
