I think that the argument against the roster is not so much the safety requirements, but that it is cost prohibitive for manufacturers to sell handguns in the state. Every model number must pass the testing, which, from what I gather, is fairly expensive for each. By model number, that means...

I think the problem here is that the government is disarming EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the house where the felon resides.

I was a Range Coach in the Marines for many years, as well as being a combat marksmanship instructor. The best solution to someone who was cross eye dominant was to teach them to shoot with whatever shoulder matched up to their dominant eye. As many other have already written, it is awkward at...

As has already been stated. This really does not change anything. There has always been a federal military response to disasters. The only difference now is that the responding unit has already been identified and will be a lot more coordinated. There will not be service members stationed...

If the item was not as described, then it is a fraudulent sale. Shipping both ways should be refunded.

I know of no banned list concerning pistols, that list concerns "assault weapons". I think that what you mean is that it is not on the APPROVED handgun roster. If you are bringing this pistol into the state from ND, then all you would have to do to make it legal would be to fill out the form...

So not wanting to come to work on THEIR weekend liberty for something not work related makes them a jerk? If I was asking someone to come and open up an armory just so I could do some personal shooting, I would be sure to have something cold and wet for them in thanks. It is not their fault that...

If you haven't BZO'd before you get in country, you will BZO before you leave the wire. It is mandatory, and just about every base has a range. In fact, it is the prefered method to BZO your weapon in the climate and altitude that you will be fighting in, that stuff really makes a difference. If...

Jdude, If it is illegal then there are probably quite a few military members as well as FFLs that are guilty. It is a very common practice for military members to buy firearms in their Home of Record state. All it takes is a drivers license with a physical address in the state to fulfill the...

Your father can buy you a firearm as a gift and give it to you. The flip side is that if you compensate him in anyway, then it is not a gift and would be a straw purchase. I am not a lawyer and may be wrong, but that is how I have usually seen it interperted.

It is the most important with handguns. With such a short sight radius, small errors cause a great decrease in accuracy. Here is an example from personal experience. I have small hands and small fingers. Every year when I qualify with the M9 (Beretta 92F) I blow the rapid fire shots. It is...

My grandfather worked construction all of his life and lost several digits in the process. I remember one story where he cut off his thumb while working on a roadway. They laid the thumb in a form they had just made, and it got covered by cement, he bandaged his hand and finished out the day...

It was a Micronesian church, kind of figures that the shooter was the same ethnic type as the congregation, isn't that how a lot of murders go?

I was once waiting in my car parked outside of store my wife was browsing in. My son was asleep in his carseat in the backseat. I saw a man and a woman start arguing about 25 meters away, the woman was getting pretty abusive, but was about half the size of the man. The man seemed to remain calm...

Disgraceful. That is all I have to say about that crap.

Edman, I did not see anything in the article to support your anger in this instance. The parents said they thought the shooting was a mistake, which, from the details of the story, it could have been. Remember, Glass has the right to a presumption of innocence, just as does Lemes. I understand...

You are probably right. It all comes down to money. There is just not enough money to scramble the air support and bring out all available assets for every single murder search. Now, I am not an LEO, but I completely understand and agree with the reasoning for going after cop killers with so...

SAWs can already accept Beta C mags. They are just horribly unreliable when using any kind of magazine. Personally, I would rather have a belt for an automatic weapon. It is so much easier to break out a ready to fire drum from the ammo crate than to have to keep reloading 100 round mags.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that there is no physiological effect. Like I said in my post, I do have noticeable hearing damage. I have tinninitus, and have trouble holding conversations in areas with a lot of low level background noise, such as crowded rooms. My ears are also more sensitive...

It is kept and either refilled from the bandoleers in our packs, or at the earliest opportunity to get more ammo. Our ammo does not come packaged in magazines, it is loaded onto 10 round stripper clips. My basic loadout last time I was in Iraq was 12 mags with 30 rounds each of 5.56, so 360...
