    The physics of limp wristing.

    I know that it will lead to misfeeds and jams in most auto's I know that it will actually damage a Desert Eagle. :cuss: I know that it keeps things from timing and moving the way they were designed to, probably because of axial friction between the moving parts. (But I'm only guessing on...

    Handgun Scope Help

    I have Leupold on my Desert Eagle .50AE. I went through several other brands that had the innards shoot loose before I got to this one. No problems at all with this one. Pay close attention to your mounts too. You'll want something that lets you see the iron sights, and something very...

    Received poor service at a gun store. (Formerly "not really a gun discussion...")

    +1 on Kingpin008... It's not the rude employee that would take the hit if you take your business elsewhere. It's the owner, that may or may not know that he has a problem. It's only fair to point it out, and then make a decision based on expected performance...

    Anyone arm themselves at Home?

    I stay armed at all times. I have a comfortable rig and it is just as much a part of my outfit as underwear and socks. If I'm dressed, I'm armed. If I'm nekkid, chances are it's close, but only if I thought about it... (yea, we live in the country and nekkid wandering sometimes happens...)...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    I just picked up a Safari Arms Matchmaster frame with a Colt MK IV slide and all the nifty 1980's race gun accesories and add-ons... Safety-sear-hammer interface isn't quite right, but it's very nostalgic! Ohyea! I paid too much too!!!! sigh....

    Kids At A Gunstore?

    The secret to that question is: Well behaved children are welcome almost everywhere! The secret is the "well-behaved" part. Well behaved and curious is an even better combination. ;)

    How Many Women Shoot

    Mine almost always carries, and let's me know I'm on my own if she doesn't carry for some reason. Luckily, it's seldom that she leaves me without a backup...

    Different Guns for Different Attire

    re: the original question... yes, without a doubt. I have several weapons that I regularly carry and stay very proficient with, and my attire, destination, mood, and company do have a good bit of influence on what I carry. re: concealed carry, does not always mean nobody knows it's...

    new gun ban ?

    He sure was good for business though.... It pains me to admit that, but it's true. I do think it wise to be ever vigilant. There is no telling what the hoplophobes may try to sneak through. (think Health Care....)

    Gun Show Curmudgeon

    We have one of those crusty old curmudgeons in my town too... He runs the shows and has a shop front. He and all but one of his counter staff are of the same cut of disrespectful, unwelcoming, "don't touch my stuff" mentality, both at the shows and in the shop. The shop's been on the...

    Gun collection poll

    Why would you lock a thread? IMO threads are not like fruit. They do not just "go bad" after a while because they've been sitting in the reefer. I think they just go out of fashion for a while and then come back...

    Let's quantify "better than a sharp stick."

    Well... From the arrogance of being on the winning team for the fight last night, I can safely say that i KNOW what the best weapon is. Here's the background... Pack of intellectually impaired folks fires up the 4X in the park next door, and proceeds to do a few donuts. Knowing that...

    A different way to see guns

    houston, that rocks! All the silliness aside, and the technology that most folks aren't familiar with, etc... Those are cool! Just ignore the doubters and post some more. A: Shoot some old stuff, like an Enfiled .303. I'd like to see how the wood/metal bit comes out. B: I bet a bowl...
