    IL Mall Shooting

    You people are a pretty nasty and unpleasant lot - 5 innocent people are murdered and you can think about is making derisive remarks about gun control and Cook County? Also, to correct DonP's "scoop" on the laws in Tinley Park, I can attest, through living part of my life there, that there is...

    Dangerous prank calls draw SWAT teams

    +1 for what wally said. Heavily armed police units operate with near impunity and are used far, FAR too often. I think situations like these could be averted by more active police work: instead of sending in the SWAT unit right away, there should be experienced police officers on the scene to...

    Broken Wrists from Heavy Recoil: Actual Reports?

    The worst damage I've ever done to myself was when I was working on accuracy with my Mosin Nagant and ran through about 120 rounds of 7.62x54R in about two or three hours. My shoulder was pretty sore at the end of my range session, but my the end of the day and definately the next day I had a...

    Firearm tattoo in 2 weeks

    As someone I once knew said, as mullets were to the 80's, tattoo's are to the 90's/00's. Joking aside, you sound exactly like me when I was 18-20. In fact, I was also planning on getting some pretty inflammatory political tattoo's, but I eventually relented, and now that I am older I can't...

    Steyr Scout Accuracy Experiences

    Steyr Scout's a phenomenal rifles and you can expect 1 or less MOA shooting with average ammo and sub-MOA groups with a little practice and good loads. Also, there is no contraversy regarding Steyr and Iran- a few HS's (less than 3) made there way to Tehran via a completely legal sale...

    Black rifle lovers, if you could have a US made legal version of one of these....

    LOL....exactly who was so bored that they went trolling for threads they posted on IN 2003?

    Nazi Weapons

    If anyone is interested, here is the pricing info on those new made FG-42's: Get me one too while you're at it... In all honesty, I'm sure the guy who is making and selling these is doing it as a labor of love that has cost him thousands of hours and tends of thousands of dollars at...

    Acog clones?

    This is the kind of blanket statement that really shows how uninformed some people are. While it's true that "knock-off's" are pretty much universally not worth buying, but when it comes to getting ACOG or holo-optics made in the Russian Federation (or former Soviet Union) you can get some...

    Question on "grandfathered" weapons

    Which would simply mean there would be massive lines at all police stations of people turning in their firearms. A few would dig a hole and hide them, but very, very few would actually *do* anything. Most Americans won't even sign a petition online much less get involved in a peoples struggle.

    STG-2000, what the heck is that?

    These rifles are by no means better than a stock AK--of any sort. These are an attempt to re-make the German "Weiger" rifle with WASR (I believe) part and some plastic externals. Of all the AK people I know across the web that have messed with them, none of them have been impressed or...

    AK-47 catches fire!

    What a complete idiot. He is either a partner in some SOT business or REALLY REALLY wealthy, and not only that, he's a complete moron for potentially risking his life to perform a moronic stunt. He could have very easily injured himself and his friend if a bullet had cooked off or if there...

    Rifle for a small woman?

    If you lived in a free state I would recommend getting her a TANTAL or an AK74U in 5.45x39. 5.45 has remarkably little recoil, is nicely accurate and is also a smaller cartridge which helps make the rifle nice and light. Also, it doesn't hurt that the rifle is damn near indestructible and very...

    Before and After L1A1

    You took an ugly duckling (I have never cared for the FAL thumbhole stocks) and made a beautiful rifle with your improvements. Good on ya'

    HK 416

    I'm amazed that people are willing to pay $3K and more for a piston AR upper which isn't any better than a DSA or POF upper. Again, HK hates you.

    What did George H.W. Bush do that was a major help for the Second?

    GHWB, just like his idiot son GWB, is part of the most wealthy and elite power-brokers in the world, and they know full well that armed populaces are dangerous to business interests (which is all they are really interested in). Some people devise elaborate conspiracy theories involving...

    Heres something to send to the anti's

    That's a phenomenal video that should be more widely distributed to inform non-shooters about what modern rifles are and aren't. In fact, I think the NRA would be wise to buy the rights to this video and distribute it to non-members when it comes time to vote on serious measures that will...

    HK XM8

    As Correira mentioned, HK could give two sh|ts about the civilian market.

    R Lee Ermey

    Instead of celebrities, how about someone who is better politically connected that can actually get some serious work done on rolling back anti-gun laws. I know the NRA is wealthy and powerful, but I can't think of any major accomplishments that they have achieved recently that have directly...

    UK Muslims Demand Public Schools...

    What does this have to do with shooting? This story is mostly a joke and something to get Islamaphobes panties in a bunch. Anyone with half a brain knows that nothing from this silly story will ever be instated and this is all a red herring.

    Modern equivalent of the "Liberator" pistol (or rifle)?

    There was a moral high-ground in the Soviet/Afghan War? Last time I checked, that conflict was a pathetic and sad attempt by a superpower to grab a strategically rich territory by force with another superpower shooting itself in the foot by arming the territory with hundreds of millions of...
