It anyone is looking for the definition of Range Nazi, you just found it.

My AR-10 Carbine with a 16-inch stainless steel barrel is the most accurate rifle I own. It is also the most unreliable rifle I own. I've been battling that thing for seven years now, including one trip back to ArmaLite and several trips to local gunsmiths. Tried many mags of various...

Get US Infantry Weapons in Combat by Mark G. Goodwin (Scott A. Duff Publications, 2005) if you want to read about the personal experiences of soldiers in WW2 and Korea. For instance, Jack Walentine of the 25th Division was going down the stairs of a Korean schoolhouse and met three Chinese...

I know someone who had one of those ports. He made a pad for his shoulder out of a folded towel and cut up a mouse pad to make a recoil pad for his FAL Para (metal stock). Nothing bad happened... except to the centers of numerous targets. He's still alive. YMMV.

I knew an E-4 armorer once too. He was assigned to that job because he was such a fool. The commander put him in the arms room by himself to get him out of everyone's hair. I learned to ignore him pretty quickly. I suggest you do the same with that fellow you know. I think it's funny...

Do you have more than one pair of jeans? TV? Car? Credit card?

Anyone watch the biathlon today? I didn't see any competitor who didn't have a large flap extending from the rear of the sight over to the left to block that eye's view. OK, maybe they were using both eyes and that thing allowed them to avoid scrunching up the face uncomfortably. But what...

You guys and gals need to read the Heller decision. Right now.

Taxes on exports are unconstitutional. Article I, Section 9: "No Tax or Duty shall be laid on Articles exported from any State."

Testifying before the Warren Commission, FBI expert Sebastian Latona described the Mannlicher-Carcano as a "cheap old weapon." Army expert Ronald Simmons, also testifying before the Commission, said it was not an exceptionally good specimen or one that had been refurbished. When three expert...

From your question I assume you have never bothered to read the most important Supreme Court decision relating to the Second Amendment in the history of the Republic, District of Columbia et al. v. Heller. That issue was addressed: Some have made the argument, bordering on the frivolous...

A tattoo is like wearing your favorite shirt... every day... for the rest of your life. I used to work in an employment agency. By getting a tattoo you are not doing yourself any favors if you are looking for something other than a blue-collar job. Are people small minded? Petty? Prone...

There's one in .308 for sale on the FAL Files right now for $3,750 face-to-face or $3,900 shipped. That will give you some idea of what you're looking at. They aren't cheap.

I've shot four Paras, two of which had the 16-inch barrel and short handguard combo which some people say is problematic. Not so in my experience. They're shorter, lighter and look extra wicked. What's not to like? Some people knock Paras in general, with special attention to cheek weld...

Browning Hi-Power Mark III

CZ223, do you actually think you are going to get through to those people? Bigotry is by definition irrational so all the evidence and logic in the world isn't going to penetrate their thick skulls. I'm with you, but this is pointless... as some of the responses have clearly shown.

That's outstanding for her first time. You obviously did a good job communicating, and she absorbed what you said and applied it. Well done, both of you. I too have seen thousands of dollars spent to get only basketball sized groups. Equipment gets you just so far. Aside from your good...

Welcome. First-time jitters are perfectly normal. It sounds like you are on the right track. Read, pick people's brains and practice. Advanced technique is really just mastery of the basics when you get right down to it.

Jake, I lived in the Golden State in 76-77, the Monterey Peninsula in fact, which is about as scenic as you can get. It was beautiful, without a doubt. But a lot of blood has gone over the dam since then. I'm glad I'm not there anymore no matter what the view from my window used to look like...

Nice set, Tinpig. Where's your 1911? Oh, and I say keep both Garands and save up for the 03A3.
