    Selling ammunition

    So, I find myself in need of some cash, and have a bit of ammunition laying around. I'm looking to sell 1k rounds of Wolf 5.56mm steel cased/polymer coated, and I'm wondering what suggestions people would have as to the best way of selling it - online, on Craigslist (if they'll even let me?)...

    AHSA staff member rips up NRA

    I'm not happy if it's true that the NRA has endorsed McCain, but I'm thinking I read somewhere that the AHSA is just another front for Soros, et al. Is that correct? The article is reposted here, primarily because I don't trust them not to take it down; if it's a problem reproducing content...

    DPMS AR-15 magazines

    Can someone give me a definitive answer on the difference between grey "dry film" magazines and teflon magazines (shown on sale at the DPMS store)? I was under the impression that the grey dry film were mil-spec, but I'm curious as to exactly what's different. Jadecristal

    CNN story with misleading referenced to assault weapons

    Perhaps someone who will show the appropriate amount of tact could take the author of this piece to task? Otherwise, we could discuss it sanely - I know the media isn't known for playing nice, but I really wish there was *something* to do to help encourage them to keep the stories factual...

    Removing rust

    My father (also a member here, though he had lots of interests in life, and so didn't post a ton) was recently killed in a head-on collision on his way home from work. In the process of going through some things, I found a patch of rust on a Remington 870 - left side of the receiver, most of...

    Hit up a social network site link

    Digg has a story up from 1911forum.com about why CWP holders are nice. Everyone that has a digg.com account should go digg it up. Everyone that doesn't should get one, then digg it up - assuming that you all agree with it, that is...

    Teen takes gun and shoots carjacker

    From http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/L/LA_CARJACKER_SHOT_LAOL-?SITE=LABAT&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT A couple things really get on my nerves, and as usual it's from the police - telling you to just "cooperate" so "no one gets shot," as if there's a contract between you and the...

    MSNBC: Mental health and guns

    The guy kinda seems to get it - it's not the guns - but still complains about them. Comments, or would anyone like to email him?

    AR Magazines - DPMS questions, etc.

    So, I recently bought a couple DPMS mags with Magpul upgrades - their self-leveling follower and the Ranger floorplates - and I find that one of those mags with 30 rounds doesn't seat nicely on a closed bolt, while the Bushmaster 30-rounders do seat nicely on a closed bolt. I also got a couple...

    "Assault rifles" at bank robbery

    I'm in a hurry, so I'm not going to be quoting the whole article like I usually do, but the media is reporting that the recent bank robbery involved two "assault rifles." Does anyone have more information at this point? Is it even worth correcting this kind of stuff anymore via an email, or...

    More Guns, Safer Schools

    I'm really beginning to like mises.org. Some emphasis (italics) and links were stripped as a result of copying and pasting the article; see bottom of post for link to original source. from http://www.mises.org/story/2354

    A "Crime Emergency"

    I find this new article difficult to believe, and wonder if/how the statistics are being skewed. I'm especially concerned about the comments about gun crime rising several percentage points. Would anyone care to offer comments on this? Is it just more media fear-mongering? Jadecristal

    Deer hunting: 5.56mm, .308, etc...

    I'm considering deer hunting for the first time this year. The only rifle I have is my Bushmaster M4gery, which I understand IS legal for hunting deer here in WI, but... I'm not convinced that it's a good idea. On the other hand, I REALLY don't want to spend more money that I don't have, if...

    AR-15 Flip-up sights

    I have a Bushmaster M4gery. I removed the upper carry handle, and put an EOTech on, but would still like flip-up iron sights. Does it *matter* which ones I get? If so, or if not, what's recommended? Jadecristal

    .22LR upper receivers for AR-15 platform

    I have a Bushmaster M4A3. I'd like to get a .22LR upper for it, so that plinking is even less expensive. I'm looking for: 1.) A company that's been around a while. Major AR-15 manufacturers preferred, in this case. 2.) A rail on top (A3, or whatever). I might want nice optics later...

    Re: Getting an M4, or other military weapon.

    I have some questions which hopefully, some of the more legally astute here can help me with. 1.) In US v. Miller, my understanding is that the SCOTUS held that military weapons *were* covered under the 2nd. Thus, why can't one simply file suit, have one's lawyer point to US v. Miller as...
