Thank you everyone for your responses. I'm thinking the Ultratech is the way I'm going to go, or possibly one of the smaller Microtechs if the Ultratech doesn't carry well in a dress pants pocket. I've found some other more tempting designs out there, but the Ultratech is already scraping the...
In just over a month, the repeal of my state's ban on automatic knives will be taking effect. I'm thinking I'm going to celebrate by picking one up. Currently all my practical knife needs are met by two different fixed blades, so this would most be a "hey, this is neat" type of purchase with no...
What poll is that from? Universal background checks have wide support in about that area, but a mag capacity limit is only marginally less contentious than an AWB, with only few percentage points more in favor vs. against.
There are some instances where absolutism has its place and compromise...
I don't think so. I believe it's deactivated via pulling of the trigger, so if the gun is dropped hard enough and at the right angle for the weight of the trigger system to trip the sear, it would trip the firing pin block as well.
My carry gun and my bedside pistol both have grip safeties pinned from the factory. I like it because with a pinned safety, you can get a much smoother fit between the safety, frame, and mainspring housing that feels much better in my hand. I've found that unpinned, this shape is a bit difficult...
Well, silly me, when starting this project, I never thought to just go to powder manufacturer's site to see if they had had data. "This is far too weird a combination of powder and bullet," I said. "Manufacturer data is usually pretty limited comapred to manuals," I said...

There was a company making aftermarket aluminum Glock frames for a while. I don't know if they're still around. I heard that they didn't work very well because the Glock design required a little bit of frame flex to work properly.
SVI shares the 2011 patent with STI. Whereas STI opts for the a more "production gun" business model with a variety of off-the-shelf models you can alter a few options on, SVI is a full-custom shop that only makes a few hundred guns a year. They also put a bunch of time into R&D, with some...

I had the same issue for a when I really started getting serious about Bullseye shooting. I'd consistently shoot low-to-mid 90s on timed and rapid fire and low 80s in slow fire. Its an over-thinking thing. The key to good, consistent shooting is constant repetition to build muscle memory. You...
Does GIT have a student shooting organization or any sort of shooting teams? When I went to Purdue, it was no guns like most every other campus, but the student shooting club had storage space in our on-campus range that we would let members who lived in the dorms use.
The JP Recoil Eliminator is the best on the market or close to it. If you want a more traditional profile or to keep your rifle 3-gun legal, I'd recommend one of their Tactical Compensators. I have one on my 16" FAL, and that gun now shoots softer than an AK.
I got a DSA Para FAL that's been light-striking lately, and since I'm more of a pistol guy, I was hoping some of the experts here could help me troubleshoot it. I haven't pulled it apart yet, but here's what I'm thinking I should check for:
1) Gunk in the firing pin channel
2)...
You're not going to find any muzzle device that helps with sound reduction without paying $200 to the ATF. That being said, suppressors are fantastically effecient brakes and dramatically reduce recoil, and you can reduce noise to hearing safe if you get a good one.
If you meant a brake that...
I've shot MOA a handful of times, but based on the low number of shots in those groups (5) and the low frequency with which it happens, I think they're flukes, a result of statistical clustering. I've held 1.5 MOA 20 round groups many a time, and although I can't print them without fail there's...
