    Ohio/Cincinnati - Any one else catch this bit on 50 calibers?

    Channel 12 (WKRC) ran a bit on 50 calibers last night (11:00 pm). I wanted to know the opinions of those who saw it last night I didn't think it was as biased as the ones ran by 60 minutes, but there could have been more clarification. As usual they got the VPC to talk. I did get pissed...

    This is a bit long, so please bare with me. OK, here's the deal. For christmas my dad wanted to get me an 870, as I have mentioned wanting one. He wasn't sure what model I wanted, so instead he got me a gift card at dick's sporting goods, which he later regretted (as I am limited to...

    Question regarding ballistic forensics - tv inspired quesiton

    I realize that forensic capabilities are often exaggerated on TV programs. That said, here is my question. I am watching "Criminal Minds", and they claim that with the recovered bullet, they can determine the type of gun used - as in specific brand and model. I call BS - as far as I know...

    Opinions on GG&G's Modular Tactical Free Floating Forearm?

    I'm thinking an AR build in the future. More like just putting an upper and lower together, then put some other junk on it. I want to put a rail system on it, But I don't like the idea of having to removing the front sight or barrel to put on a free float rail. Thats why I'm looking at the...

    9mm ammo - did I get a good deal?

    I just picked up 2000 rounds of Norinco 9mm for $160. The cases are brass, and they aren't magnetic. Berdan (sp?) primed, but I don't reload so it doesn't matter reguardless. It says it is non-corrosive. Did I do good? or did I buy a bunch of junk? Cyanide

    Is the media gettting dumber? (AWB)

    I just heard less than 5 minutes ago on Fox news that "the brady bill" was going to expire monday. :banghead: First they can't represent the conditions of the law correctly, then they try to convince people that assault weapons are machine guns. Now they are saying that the assault weapons...
