    Hardest kicking gun you've ever shot?

    S&W 629 Classic .44 Magnum. Only rifles that I have shot were in 5.56x45 NATO and .22LR chamberings. Nothing too harsh.

    glock not "detectable" on X Ray!!!??

    I'm pretty sure that I read something that stated the Glock was 80% Steel by weight, and has enough Barium in the trigger alone to set off detectors.

    USMC: IAR vs SAW

    I've got just the deal for you Mr Marine! How about some of these babies. They only weigh 14.5 lb, which is almost down to your max, and they are sorta reliable. They have 30 round magazines rather than a belt, a rear pistol grip, and none of that pesky quick change barrel nonsense either...

    Which gun, for a one-gun user, in a worse-case scenario?

    I would love something like that. The 'Glock CCU with a Quadrail installed along with some accessories' looks like a lot of fun, and hey, plenty of magazines and ammunition can be had for cheap!

    Does this guy really need a gun? Really?

    That man could probably CC a LAR Grizzly or Desert Eagle. :D Good on him, he was well spoken, polite, and came across very well.

    I Open Carried Today - people's reactions

    If I saw someone with a handgun openly carried in plain view, but holstered I wouldn't give it too much thought. If I saw the same person constantly fiddling with it in the holster, or having it drawn and constantly fiddling with it I might get a bit nervous. For the most part I would mind...

    Scotland Yard Moves to Baby Glocks to Get Women

    Hell, don't we still have a load of Browning Hi-Powers lying around, surely? Those have a lovely grip (slimmer than a Glock at least) and still carry 13+1. Unless they don't want anything to do with a SA pistol. :(

    UK: Cracking Down on Deactivated Guns!

    You guys do know that article is a year old, and that the Labour Party are not in power any more? Basically, some guys were 'reactivating' some 'old-spec' deacts for gang members, and this got some bad press for deacts as a whole.

    I'd want Deer Hunter's shotgun. :evil: Remington 1740: My Project Begins

    Took my little sister to the range last weekend.

    Keep up the good work, guys and girls!

    Article on gun owners and video gamers

    Depending on which one of them you believe (if either of them), two of the infamous Bravo Two Zero guys claimed to have carried about that much. The total weight of each member's kit was estimated at 95 kg (210 lb) by McNab and 120 kg (260 lb) by Ryan It's worth pointing out that when...

    Has there ever been documented dual wielding gun battles?

    Real life? No idea. In something like the Matrix (where they are plugged into a huge video game for life, basically), Neo having eleventy-billion guns under his coat makes (relative) sense. Say you have a couple of Glock 18s that are expendable and you need a massive amount of rounds in a...

    Article on gun owners and video gamers

    Weapon degradation is indeed pretty cool. STALKER games also have it, though not everyone is happy with just how fast some of them degrade when fired enough. Of course, all you need to do is open up the LTX weapons files with Notepad and change the values! I do think that shooters in...

    Article on gun owners and video gamers

    I hate to be 'that guy' of gaming forums (PC fanboy :D), but I will point out that Crysis on PC has some lovely weapon models. A lot of us realise how unrealistic game weapons and ballistics (in the games that feature things like bullet drop - ie Battlefield 2 and STALKER), and some...

    Army's Proposed New M855A1 to Use Solid Copper Bullet

    I can attest that clearing stoppages in the LA85/86 weapons (in my admittedly limited experience) are not exactly fun, but luckily I'm a civvie and never had to try it in combat.

    Project 7.62x54R

    Cool idea, bit like a Commie version of the Jungle Carbine. :D

    Army's Proposed New M855A1 to Use Solid Copper Bullet

    I think the concern is more for the bullets that end up in the water supply and elsewhere.

    Will the AR be replaced (in the private sector) anytime soon?

    People often stick with what they know and/or love. Many civilian shooters weren't always civilians, and even those that were might just have a hankering for military (current or ex) hardware. People still use Mosin-Nagant/Mauser/Springfield/Lee Enfield rifles for more than just nostalgia. They...

    AR-10 vs M1A vs FAL

    Mainsail: What the heck is that? :D

    AN-94

    First heard of the rifle through the STALKER games, though the two-shot bursts of the real life weapon seem even faster and more effective. :D
