    MA Assault Weapons Ban upheld in US District Court for the State of Massachusetts

    A Brief History of Second Amendment Jurisprudence As it turns out, That title is a bit of a misnomer. It would be hard to write about the history of second amendment jurisprudence and not be brief, as the second amendment has only been interpreted by the supreme court in six cases. The second...

    Force on Force observations

    Eye opening combatives class last night. I may have to rethink my EDC. Tonight’s class has been in the works for a while. We all had to get training versions of all of our EDC gear before we could run it. The instructor set up 10 self defense scenarios, 5 were ambush scenarios, 5 were escalation...

    Mechanical vs Practical accuracy

    I thought I kept impeccable records. I can tell you the exact number of rounds fired from every firearm I have ever owned. I can tell you the serial number of every firearm I have ever owned. I can tell you how many rounds I have fired from AR-15/M16 style rifles, how many of those have been...

    Mechanical vs Practical accuracy

    This exercise was as much about learning SPSS as it was about shooting for me. I have to learn SPSS for work and I have a lot of shooting data available. "typical range conditions" from "practical conditions" because my AR shooting at paper targets (the only targets that allow group measurement)...

However, the vast majority of the rounds fired were under "typical range conditions" I.E. decent weather, good lighting, known distance, low stress, ect. While range...

    Mechanical vs Practical accuracy

    the data set for these results was collected over 381 months wit 17 AR rifles and 54,605 rounds fired, the most questionable part of the results is the "practical conditions" results because only 7,342 rounds were assigned this value and that assignment is a bit subjective. Another possible...

    Mechanical vs Practical accuracy

    OK, I am a bit of a nerd. I have kept very meticulous records of my shooting for just over 3 decades. Over the past 6 months I have devoted an inordinate amount of time setting up and entering shooting data in SPSS (SPSS is a statistical analysis program for those of you not familiar with the...

    books on fundamentals of shooting?

    If you can find a copy, "The Complete Book of Shooting" by Jack O'Conner, Roy Dunlap, Alex Kerr, and Jeff Cooper is pretty good.
