I hate to throw water on everyones hopes for an end to the ban but people often kill the messanger that tells them bad news. I would encourge everyone to support your favorite pro-gun organization because when the bill is made permanent it will undoubtabley change and it will change for the...

Sir you seem to be a highly intelligent person so I would like to hear your views and explanations of the tests that P.O.Ackley conducted with the .220 Swift. As we all know it was a .22 caliber projectile weighing 48 grains traveling at about 4,100 fps or even a little less than that being...

To my knowledge original stocks on original guns are legal, adding a reproduction stock would entail registering it with the Government and paying a fee.

If a Mauser has a good bore the accuracy is astounding because it is basical a fixed barrel weapon. The barrel does not tilt as in many automatics. The barrel which is part of the receiver does move but it moves straight back. The velocity will vary according to what brand of ammo you use...

First of all congradulations, every man and boy dreams of getting such a wonderful present. You have one of the finest handguns ever made in the history of the world. And I might add on of the most accurate. I will give you some fatherly advice though and do not take this the wrong way...

Come on Tamar get serious. You have a TV set don't you. If not just call NBC, ABC or CBS they could probably give you a list a mile long. Where do you think I saw this, right on TV. AS a matter of fact I just suddenly rememberd yet another one right in the Cleveland area. A young boy...

I both agree and disagree with you. On the one hand outlawing something will temporarily keep it out of the hands of the average knuckle head crook but if the need or desire becomes great enough this type of weapon and ammo will simply be smuggled in and sold on the street. Its done very...

I both agree and disagree with you. 1. The woodchuck and the steer are much better test mediums than non-living objects such as ballistic gelatin. 2. That there are other creatures such as pigs that are much closer to humans in size and internal organ similarity. No pun intended.

Correct but very misleading. You are attempting to compare a high velocity rifle bullet with a much slower and bigger moving handgun bullet. Not only is this not comparing apples to apples and unfair but also proving what I have been saying all along, i.e. that smaller high velocity rounds...

I always take service life reports with a huge grain of salt. Factors such as how well the person cares for his weapon must be taken into the equation. A weapon that gets no lubrication or gets inferior lubrication due to the type of lubricant used or inadequate amounts even of good a...

Chucky boy comes to the rescue I think what is needed is help from a very charismatic, good looking and sensationalistic gun writer none other than "Chucky Boy". Chuck could give us a big write up on the cartridge. He could claim a 170,000 round service life (a very tough test considering...

Good Question Mr. Cratz. There was a good reason I called it the 30/357 and not the 30/40S&W. As of late there has been a lot of bad press about the 40 S&W. To sell a new cartridge you must present it in the most favorable light and not only has there been not as much bad press about...

Come on Mike, even your smarter than that , the .32 Magnum would not fit in a pocket pistol. Well Mike if you were a real hunter with practical experience and not a person who hunts from a computer key board you would have discovered the following years ago. Although the 7mm Magnum is a...

The two quotes you quoted have nothing to do with each other. What I was saying is that why would anyone condemn the new necked down pocket pistol cartridges when the originals the .25acp and .32acp are lower velocity rounds? Why anyone wouldn't want one of the two newer cartridges is as...

Your way off the mark in regards to the 25/32 and 32/380. If you were paying attention to what I was saying you would have realized that given the right promotion along with a weapon that the people perceive to be of quality (notice I said perceive) that these cartridges have a lot to...

Among the vey few Connoisseur's of 9mm owners the question is an easy one to answer. There are only two. Those two being the Original forged frame Browning/FN Highpower and the immortal elite of all 9mm's the Sig Neuhauser P210. The original Classic High Power was made before circa 1988...

You forgot the 40 S&W and it did not flop. There is also the new .480 Ruger. There is the new S&W 50. But even more interesting to a lot bigger crowd of people is the new pocket pistol cartridges. There is a necked down 32/380 and a necked down 25/32acp, now this is the first big...

I guess it all depends on how much money you have and how much you like to shoot. $4.00 a box adds up real fast when you shoot in excess of 6,000 rounds a year just in 9mm alone, not counting all the other pistol calibers I shoot which includes cast rifle bullets as well. Besides if I was...

For those of you that think the 30 Mauser could be chambered in many of the more modern handguns I suggest you take a round and stick it in the 9mm magazine. I tried it on a Berretta and it in no way would be able to be chambered in this gun unless some serious enlarging of the frame took...

I guess we totally agree to disagree. Penetration is paramount if incapacitation is the goal. A bullet that does not reach the vital organs does not incompacitate or terminate the target. When a round refuses to penetrate one materiel it usually fails to varying degrees in other materiels as...
