    Military qualification terminology

    Ok cool, that's what I've figured but haven't found any hard information on. How about the period between the M1 Garand and the M14? I haven't seen anyone in the late 50's that had qualified with both of these weapons yet so I don't know... I don't know when the Army brought around the...

    I will say that when I first heard this show was coming out, I thought it was going ot be nothing more than a high detailed, let's talk trigger polishing today type show. While I can understand what it takes to make a show interesting, I do tune in every week for the new episode.

    Military qualification terminology

    Hahahahaha, ok I can see that I've either really failed at trying to convey my question or people aren't reading what I'm asking. Yes, I've Goggled the answer and I've even read AR-600-8-22 on the subject, but even the reg. hasn't answered my question. What does the Army define as a...

    sons of guns new episode

    Exactly, in the first season that kid that walked in an wanted to buy the SBS for a hunting trip that weekend that got bent when he was told that there is a lot fo paperwork that goes into getting walked out. That shows that guns are just handed out like candy. I watched this, what did I miss?

    Military qualification terminology

    What I have seen was on late 60's and early 70's DD214's, before the Army phased out the M14 completely. Now though, the M16 is just a rifle, but back than they called it an auto rifle, only if you had qualified with the M14 as well though. M60 or M2 for the machine gun bar IIRC, the M249...

    Military qualification terminology

    I think I missed the mark when I wrote the OP. I talking in terms of qualification bars that hang on Marksman, Sharpshoot and Expert Badges. I understand how these weapons function and there role in combat, but when it comes down to getting an award how are they determined. Does that make...

    Military qualification terminology

    I’ve been researching military weapons qualifications and have a question regarding the terminology. My questions regard what is the difference between a rifle and an auto rifle, as I have seen people from Vietnam era qualify with the M-16 and while one says rifle, the other says auto-rifle. I...

    Title II "Loophole"

    I'm sure I'm wrong, but I thought that to be placed on the trust you were subject to a background check, therefore any transfers wouldn't require additional checks for everyone on teh trust, only the purcahsing person.

    Henderson Certified Century Golani

    I know that seems like a bit of a stretch, but if it's a true Hederson certified rifle, they would be held to blame for letting it out like that. That's all that I was checking for.

    Henderson Certified Century Golani

    Well I looked on Henderson's website, just to see if they've had problems with people selling fake rifle's under their name but I didn't see anything. If it's truly one of their rifles, I would contact them and ask how it slipped through. Mistakes are made, no matter how large or small, but...

    Some things just shouldn't be done

    I like it. As others have said, function over form is what that's all about. I think a smaller dot sight would look better, but I bet it get's the job done.

    vomit-flashlight

    Pilgrim A girl I went to highschool with had a seizure while stopped at a red light. Cause? The car in front of her that had a rapid blinking turn signal (one light was one) had triggered hers. I agree with others, I've never seen one of these things but I've seen strobe lights many times...

    Best AK-47 under $600?

    ^^ IIRC since it is a one peice buttstock and pistol grip combo it only counts as one part. God I need to get off my butt and do my conversion, need to rewatch that walk through and get my tools together.

    Best AK-47 under $600?

    :faceplam Being a fear monger does nothing. If there is no official annoucment on this, then all you are doing is assuming. Nothing in print currently states anything about intent to ban Saiga S12's from being imported, but many have taken the study that you linked to and turned it into a...
