    New CTD Catalog...exercise in futility.

    A friend of mine who works there says the employees refer to the company as "lower than dirt". While it's true that the customer sets the price, they have other unsavory practices such as halting firearm sales during unfavorable political climates that are reason enough for me to never purchase...

    Can we present a united front re: the "Modern Sporting Rifle"?

    They are semi automatic rifles. A technically accurate term devoid of political bias. Yes they have detachable magazines and pistol grips, adjustable stocks and threaded barrels. Those features do not warrant a seperate classification. Assault weapon is an agenda driven semantic with clear...

    Why keep bringing up the 2nd Amendment?

    I don't know if it's been mentioned in this very long thread, but Jared Lee loughner was not subdued during a reload. He was subdued when his gun jammed. He then attempted to change magazines which is standard protocol in malfunction clearing. The window of opportunity to subdue him had much...

    Which AR-15 should I get?

    Yes but if this "noob" is wanting to purchase one, the price is what the price is. And to answer his question, the stock can be replaced in a few seconds without any tools. Pay attention to whether or not the buffer tube is milspec or commercial.

    New York Gun Felons Better Run and Hide-Gov. Cuomo Has Your Number

    With a 40% hit rate (better than nypd) and 2 hits per assailant (bare minimum to incapacitate), you now are unlikely to be able to fight off more than one aggressor. They have leveled the playing field between an armed citizen and two thugs with their bare hands.

    toughest most rugged pistol ever made

    If the thread is about "toughest, most rugged" then a plastic chew toy is right out. Glocks are great guns, but not the toughest, most rugged. Not by a long shot. What if poochy had chewed off the trigger? Your pocket knife isn't gonna fix that.

    Feeling on 3d printable rifles and mags?

    Firearms manufactured for personal use are not required to be serialized even when sold. There is no limit to the number of personal use firearms that may be sold, so long as they were not manufactured with intent to sell.

    Feeling on 3d printable rifles and mags?

    Yes it will still, for the foreseeable future, be easier to buy a hi point off the street. Even with a 3d printer in every house.

    Feeling on 3d printable rifles and mags?

    The 2nd amendment doesn't specify "free men and women" it says "the people" Someone without the financial resources to afford the same quality of personal protection that you can. I haven't ever bought a paper printer, but that doesn't stop me from making prints. I got to Kinko's or borrow a...

    Second Amendment Foundation Sue NY

    Yes, you see there's nothing to worry about. Just be very diligent when loading your magazines and don't put that 8th bullet in there or you'll lose your 2nd amendment rights. Totally reasonable.

    toughest most rugged pistol ever made

    The impression that weapons are rarely subjected to high heat in combat situations is a mistaken impression. Also, you can shoot an AK until the hand guard catches fire and shoot a Glock 18 until it melts. The difference is that the AK will keep running. IMO polymer guns are excluded from the...

    Drafting a Gunowners Bill of Rights

    Here you go: No government, corporation, individual or group shall make any law concerning the possession of arms, or the acquisition and commerce thereof. That about covers it all.

    Feeling on 3d printable rifles and mags?

    It's always been legal to manufacture personal use firearms. Yes as technology advances, manufacturing becomes easier. A 3d printer is less capable and more expensive than an endmill when it comes to manufacturing firearms. Are civilian owned machining tools a bad idea? Ban metal?

    Feinstein is lying

    She was referring to the confiscation of "assault weapons" not all firearms. The high road has no place for twisting anyone's words regardless of whether we agree with them. She made it clear in her current proposal that there would be no grandfathering. She has a concealed handgun permit and...

    toughest most rugged pistol ever made

    Another good stress test is a high heat endurance test. Can the gun function after being left on a woodstove overnight or dropped into a fire for a certain time frame? Glock fanboys never include such tests in their "torture" testing for obvious reasons. I can think of many firearms that can...

    zip .22

    The atf have determined that a vertical grip added to a pistol places it under the aow category. A couple problems with this: AOW definition specifically excludes rifled bore firearms. The logic used is that adding a foregrip makes the firearm no longer a pistol since a pistol is designed to be...

    toughest most rugged pistol ever made

    Ingram's MAC line of pistols, obviously. You could jam a piece of hickory in the magwell and use it as a sledgehammer. Ridiculously overbuilt and heavy.

    Great! Shootings in CA and TN this morning...

    Impossible. People aren't allowed to have guns on school grounds. There are signs and everything.

    Are background checks necessary?

    There are two types of people in the world, those that define what is good for themselves and those that define what is good for others. The only universally applicable definition of evil I can verbalize is: the enforcement of your "good" on someone else.
