    Gun owners flex their right to openly carry arms ...in California!

    We actually did a carry event like that in Pacific Beach last spring. Unsurprisingly, most of us who came were with the short haircut club.

    Taurus 85 prob.

    That's frustrating. I'm one of those people that doesn't like to send in machines or electronics like that for service. Allright thanks.

    Taurus 85 prob.

    Hi all, this is my first post for quite some time, and unfortunately I have a problem. I was aware of this problem before I purchased. I thought I had fixed this. The cylinder keeps falling out after firing. I disassembled the side plate but the crane, cylinder retaining pin, spring, and...

    New York .50 Ban/Turn-In?

    We did exactly what needed to be done, we just didn't apply any "follow through".

    Pirates Beware: Soon Rifles That Kill from a Mile Away (TIME magazine article)

    I actually know someone working for an aerospace research department that claims to be working on a project just like that with a .338 Lapua rifle. Edit: Speak of the devil! There's a discussion and a link to an article in the "Flying sniper rifle" thread in the rifles section. Way to go SDL...

    Shotgun training with Doom

    Well, I'll be the first to admit I'm kind of a high strung person if that has anything to do with it. Then I don't imagine you'd like F.E.A.R very much either. Another gory PC classic.

    Shotgun training with Doom

    Don't get me wrong. I loved Doom, and in a nostalgic way continue to do so. But no. Just no. Funny story though, I do think it can cause some subconscious twitches. I first got Doom 3 my last year in high school. Sometimes the special ed section would be escorted around the hallways during...

    Cap on ammo sales.

    Ah yes, policies such as these should be implemented. In fact, let's call it the "fair share act". This'll guarantee that no one individual or group gets more that what they need. We need to be socially minded in trying times such as these. Remember, society's needs come before the individual...

    Need A Way To Wrap AR Buffer Tube With 550 Cord

    Always keep his stock extended and have the 550 cord be kind of a soft cheek weld?

    Whats new at SHOT so far

    Why suppression of an unruly mob, of course! It's for the children. Hell, it won't be long before LEOs have access to armored vehicles, full auto weapons, helicopters, sniper rifles, and mounds and mounds of on demand, instant profile data collected without a prior arrest or transgression...

    Anybody in Basrah?

    A garrison without a coffee source is a sitting duck, just waiting to be overran. Along with an armory, perimeter defenses, command post, and barracks, a coffee distribution center is critical to the operation of a post. It's warfare 101.

    Pirates and Idiots

    It seems that in a lot of places, pirates and narcotics smugglers may not necessarily be after ransom of a crew, they're after the ship itself. They could give a crap about ransom so they just tie weights to the crew/passengers and roll them over the side.

    "Small Caliber Leathality" or Why .223 Doesn't Suck

    Yes, although I believe that the DOJ ruled that in actions in the 'war on terror' we can use HP, frangible, etc. ammo anyway. I think most troops don't just because of logistics, but I know for a fact that there are certain units that do.

    Does everyone's AR-15 go "SPROINGGG"?

    What's the matter with all your rifles? Mine never does that! Oh wait, it's cause I have an AR180 without that infernal tube. :neener:

    The .223 is a nasty caliber...

    If that's what a .223 does, imagine what a .308 does :cool:

    Stock in Firearms Companies

    Alliant Tech Systems or ATK: Owns and operates the Lake City plant in Independence, MO, which I believe makes all small arms ammunition for the US military. They also own Thiokol propulsion and a host of other defense and aerospace related enterprises.

    Question for those trained in long range target shooting with a Barrett

    That shot you mention wasn't done with a Barrett. It was done with a McMillan TAC50 and a Leupy 16x by those Canadians. To give you an idea on the more intended purpose of the M107, the reason the Marine Corps refers to it as a SASR (special application scoped rifle), rather than a "sniper...

    Happy Birthday Marines

    Yut. Have a meritorious day.

    Non-issue weapons in the military

    The Marine Corps is an organization totally afeared of firearms. This is compounded in my case by the perception of firearms in California. This doesn't seem likely as Marines stationed at Pendleton come from all over the place, and the Corps mission itself is wrapped around shootery, but if you...

    carbon fiber barrel

    I know one issue I've heard of with machining flutes into a heavy barrel is that the mill work might change the size of the bore slightly. That's why they cut the flutes, then bore/ream so I've heard. I would think the same would apply to the above mentioned procedure. Wouldn't it be better to...
