    Reloads

    I bought a bunch of reloads at a gun show from a reputable company last year. As I was loading my .45 mag, I happened to feel something funny on the bullet. The picture below is what I found. Moral of the story, check what you buy before you load it. This was one of a thousand in the box but...

    Browning Buckmark and CCI Stingers

    I picked up a new Buckmark last week. When I went to buy ammo, the owner of the store said to be careful with the buckmark and CCI stingers. He implied that there was a KB problem with that ammo. Has anyone had any experience or heard about this? I don't believe myself. There's nothing in...

    Great Letter to the Editor

    Someone sent this in to the San Diego Union-Tribune in reponse to the U-T's editorial supporting the AWB. In it, they cited statistics from the VPC. This guy rips em a new one. I removed his name and city but he deserves a hand. Read and enjoy. I wish I had written it. Focus of assault...

    SOG Flash II

    I was lucky enough to go with my Mom to the local Marine PX and saw this knife at the sporting goods counter. The salesperson let me look at it and to my amazement, the lockblade flew out of the handle. It's spring loaded and according to SOG, perfectly legal. I'm still trying to find out...

    SAS: Are You Tough Enough?

    There's a show on the Outdoor Life Network. It's a reality show from Britain. I just picked it up tonight but they're putting 16 civilians (out of ~50 that started) through realistic SAS training. It looks tough. They've had had them climb a mountain twice with 55 lb Bergens twice. Check...

    The Final Option

    I saw this movie last Saturday on cable. Awesome SAS training scene and a great hostage rescue in the end. I wonder if the real SAS guys can shoot as well as these guys did. It was made in the early 80's so there is some outdated cold war stuff. If you have a chance to see this one, do...

    44 Minutes

    A movie about the LA shootout is going to be on FX Sunday at 8:00 PST. I just heard an ad for it on the radio but I'm sure we'll all be lamenting it's pro-gun control bent. The ad itself was pretty much hype. "What happens when two bank robbers get military rifles and body armour?" :barf...

    SW99 .40 S&W any good?

    SW99 .40 S&W compact any good? I'm looking for a compact that I will have if I'm approved for CCW. A gentleman working the counter suggested the SW99 with the 3.5 inch barrel. It was approved last month for sale in California and I really like alot of the features (DA, De-cocker, etc). I...

    Google Gun Ban

    I was looking for a scope mount for my M1A and came across a story about the Google search engine filtering out firearms related search results and banning firearm ads. I don't know how accurate the filtering part is because I found this site via google. YMMV. More details can be found here...
