    Head of Moms Demand Action defines "assault weapon" as 10+ rounds fired in 1 minute

    I was wondering if anyone would bring this up. Those Brits could lay down some lead with those bolt-action rifles.

    Beretta PX4 or another M9?

    I've always wondered why Beretta didn't make the two guns compatible in terms of magazines. I'd probably own both if I could swap mags. I can only assume they wanted to just sell more magazines, but maybe there is an actual engineering reason.

    Best 7.62 AK pistol for an eventual SBR?

    I'm no suppressor expert, but I think I've heard that short barrel plus rifle cartridge doesn't work well with suppressors. Suppressors often have minimum barrel requirements to ensure that the powder fully burns before the bullet enters the suppressor. Ever seen the fireball on a video of an...

    record your guns!

    I keep mine as a google doc. Of course that means the NSA probably knows what guns I have. ;) But I can access it from any computer (including my phone) that has the Internet. If my house burns down or my computer hard drive dies, I don't lose the information. Plus you can have google drive...

    Guns you would buy that will never be made

    I'm pretty sure this has been done by some folks in a few variations (though probably just one-off projects). http://airbornecombatengineer.typepad.com/airborne_combat_engineer/2005/01/the_maadi_griff.html As with all rifle-caliber pistols, I would assume that it is extremely loud and...

    Time to rise up an support Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.)

    I read another story today how the antis are sending victims family members in a "grass roots effort" to all the town hall meetings of "centrist" senators in an effort to sway and/or shame them into voting for UBC when it comes back up again. I've also seen it on CNN (break room at work, not...

    After The Panic, What Do You Want To Buy?

    The list is pretty long. Also I would love to buy (or at least handle and evaluate) a few firearms that were hard to come by even before the panic. For example, S&W Shield in 9mm and the KSG. I don't know when those two in particular will ever catch up with demand even after the panic...

    Will "the panic" end before 2016?

    I was at a gun show in the Salt Lake City area yesterday and there was a fair amount of ammo still there when I arrived in the afternoon (though no real supply of .22LR that I could see). The prices weren't at pre-panic levels, but they weren't horrific either. I hope that the market is...

    What's the point of sporterizing mil-surps?

    Velocette, those are beautiful! You won't hear me calling them "Bubba'ized"!

    If a UBC passes, would you continue to buy or stop?

    Interesting thread. I agree with Cosmoline, it might be hard to do anything with a "registry," but I'm still not sure what I would do. I'd need to think this over some more. A similar question you could ask is whether you will be sharing any of your guns if this law (the version waiting to be...

    Beretta CX4 -92FS Version?

    Where do you get these 30 rd MecGars? I have some 18+2 that work great. I tried some ProMag 30s and they sucked.

    Shotgun News , getting lesser in advertisers

    I loved looking at that magazine! My neighbor would give me his old copies in the mid-to-late '90's, and this teenager would sit there and drool over every page! I do recall it being rather thick, but I would practically memorize the content.

    Semi-auto ban affect Double-Action Revolvers?

    Is anyone going to answer the actual question at hand? I'll give it my best interpretation: No, it is not a self-loading mechanism, and is therefore not semi-automatic. The round is not chambered before you pull the trigger.

    Colorado: Ballot Initiative Proposed To Repeal The Idiotic Magazine Ban

    +1 on this being great for getting 2nd amendment voters to turn out. Even polls and articles that show 2nd amendment supporters to be in the minority (depending on the demographic/state, political climate when the question was asked, and definitely depending on the way the question was...

    When the supply chains return to normal what's the first thing youre going to get?

    I don't agree. Right now we keep hearing that ammo manufacturers are running at 100%, but unwilling to expand capacity because they don't know if the demand will stay this strong. I see two eventual outcomes: 1) The demand dies down and availability and prices stabilize. 2) The demand stays...

    Do you have guns for which you have no ammo?

    I like having a couple years worth of ammunition for each firearm I have. Of course at this point my collection is only full of newer, fully-functioning firearms that I like to shoot. I only go shooting (on average) about four times a year, so I only need a few thousand rounds on hand for each...

    Colorado Legislators Grill Raped Student.

    Yeah, totally unrelated numbers. That makes me sick. To compare apples to oranges (which is what they are trying to do), you need to look at percentages, not absolute numbers. What percentage of women who were attacked and had guns were successful in fending off the attack? What percentage of...

    Magpul will not sell items to agencies or LEOs in banned states.

    Good for them! I have to say...I called it: http://www.thehighroad.org/showpost.php?p=8777675&postcount=24 :) I didn't think of the oath part, but I did say their best move was to "suspend" sales to LEOs in ban states. From the reaction I see in this thread, it was a good idea! Of course...

    Stupid gun comments on "Elementary"

    I saw that episode a couple weeks ago. My wife had to listen to me explain what a rifled barrel was and how stupid the writers of the show were. Didn't he also say that one of the reasons these criminals use this weapon was because it could easily be fired accurately with one hand? I've never...

    Is Magpul playing both sides?

    I've been reading and considering this thread all day, and I think the best solution for them would be to take the "political" route (leave options open) and make a statement akin to this: I know they already released a statement to give Coloradans priority, but I don't think they've said...
