    Contemplating 50BMG.

    What ever you get you will probably have fun. I have a Serbu and it is accurate as well as fun to shoot. The recoil is not really too bad but any effective brake wil create a lot of blast. I have shot over 40 rounds in a day without any real discomfort. Just wear good hearing protection. I...

    SKS and AK, which gets shot more?

    I have an SKS that I bought in 1991. I don't shoot it a lot but I am always impressed with how reliabe it is and how well it shoots. I bought a Romanian SAR 1 less than a year ago and it is already sold. Nothing personal, I just didn't like it.

    If the new ban passes, what will we call our rifles?

    What if the AWB sunsets? Will there be pre-ban, post-ban (after the sunset) and "ban-era"? If it does sunset, it seems that the firearms produced during the ban will have to be called something besides post-ban. I just hope that they don't call them a poor investment! I like mine and they...

    No guns at work?

    I work for the Federal Gov and having a firearm on the property is prohibited and a felony. Pre 9/11/01 things were different and I MIGHT have taken a chance. Now with warnings of possible vehicle searches (we had on site security for about a year) It is not worth the risk of losing my job...

    lurkers vs posters...

    I lurk here and a couple of other boards and rarely post. I do most of my surfing on breaks at work. The rule there is that while it is ok to go to any appropriate site it is not ok to post messages on discussion boards. Sometimes I see something I would like to add to so I send an email to...

    Electronic Hearing Protection

    Because I have to pass a hearing test every year to keep my job I am very carefull about hearing protection. I have the Tac 7s because of the high NRR and I also wear the best foam plugs I can find. The 7s are big but I wear them to shoot everything from skeet and sporting clays to 50 BMG and...
