    AR 10 or AR 15

    7.62x39 is priced nowhere near 5.56. When prices were stable, you could get 1000 rounds of 7.62x39 for anywhere from 80-100. 5.56 was going for well over 200 for decent ammo. Brand new 7.62 Nato is going for a bit more than 5.56, but you see a lot more surplus on the market, and it...

    Issue at the Range with xd.

    That could have been a nasty kaboom. It's just a squib round, I don't think anything would be damaged by that. As long as the rifling in your barrel wasn't damaged during the punching process you should be G2G. If you'd had a kaboom, it would have provided us with some nice insight into...

    Legal self defense for a teenager

    When I couldn't carry a gun, I carried one of those keychain lanyard things, only the buckle (detachable portion) was metal with a bunch of resin stuffed in it, added a few keys that I didn't necessary need. It makes a decent flail I suppose. Just know that A) hitting someone once in the...

    SKS or AR-15? Which is better for defense?

    I'd put my money on 10 guys with SKS' against 1 guy with an AR but let's be reasonable here. I'm assuming the poll is about *your* gun, for *you*. So we're talking one gun here. That said, the AR is a significantly better firearm in nearly every way, plain and simple. Reliability...

    Shooting at Jewish Federation Center in Seattle

    I wouldn't generalize. Plenty of American Jews are pro-gun (JPFO.org). BUT, many are latte-liberals. They aren't anti-gun because they're Jews though, they're anti gun because they live in seemingly nice, safe, suburban communities, and like every other latte-liberal, would crap...

    ISP trooper pleads guilty

    As guardians of the laws which they've been entrusted to uphold, they should receive a harsher sentence for violating that trust. I can't believe some people here actually think that their sentence should be lighter. Police favoratism at best, and outright dangerous bias at worst. And...

    Tell me about carrying in PA

    I carry in PA, and when I'm in the city as well. You can carry in the city, but it has to be concealed, whereas in the rest of PA you can conceivably carry open. It's legal, but a cop will probably eventually bust your balls about it simply because they don't realize it's legal. In...

    This Is Not The IDF I Remember.

    The Arabs say more than they do, and the Israelis do more than they say. This is just the nature of the conflict. An Israeli general was interviewed after the 6-day war. I don't know the specifics, but the gist is this: American (reporter?): why did you not tell us that you were OK after...

    What Gun Are You Carrying Now?

    XD9 service IWB with 147 gr +P bonded sabres.

    Is rape = great bodily harm

    The law is written strangely. Unless it explicitly states it, it would probably be up to your lawyer to argue effectively. People have said that "grave bodily harm" can include being attacked by someone significantly larger than yourself. How much larger are we talking here? How many...

    Sword for HD?

    If you're serious about a sword, ie: LEARNING HOW TO USE IT, you can't beat a Wakazashi. It's a short Katana. You could conceal it, but if you want it for home defense I guess that's OK too. If you can't have a firearm, I guess a sword is OK, just know that it requires FAR more training...

    $500 9mm compact challenge

    Try farting around with an XD. For all intents and purposes of interaction, it's a Glock with a grip safety, though the manner of operation is entirely different. I haven't shot myself with mine yet.

    Do you keep a rifle for home defense?

    AR15 with a light under the bed, AK in the basement in case I just got back from the gym or otherwise don't have my carry piece on me. Handgun is usually on me at all times, except when I'm in gym clothes. With the rifles I don't keep one in the chamber.

    Someone Pulls a Gun On You and You're Unarmed!

    HSO, where can I pick up the magic 8 ball that tells me whether or not the BG is going to shoot, comply or no comply? :o

    Body Worlds is a where to shoot how to

    Saw it in Philly as well. It was pretty incredible. Mommadukes was wondering why I spent so much time looking at the artery sections. :uhoh: As a fairly big guy (bodybuilding big :) ) it made me take comfort that my subclavian is pretty well protected by the trapezius. I thought it'd be...

    What .223's will handle wolf ammo?

    I personally shot about 1000 rounds of Wolf through an Oly AR without any problems. FWIW, a friend of mine bought a new AR, fired 3000 or so rounds of Wolf through it. When he went to sell it, he had a smith inspect it and found extensive throat corrosion. YMMV, and this isn't personal...

    AR15 vs. 12 gauge shotgun for home defense

    ctdonath, in criminal court it won't affect you. In civil court, if you've got a scratch that *looks* like a bodycount strike, they're going to bring it up. Civil court is a circus. Whether or not it'd weigh heavily is one thing, but the prosecution would DEFINATELY bring it up in a...

    These aren't the WMD you were looking for......

    Gopguy, the anti-war "he doesn't have WMDs!" crowd doesn't care about whether or not he has WMDs, IMO. They're against any and all violent conflicts, even in self preservation. Saddam could have been farting Tabun and Soman, and they still would find something else to complain about. :)

    These aren't the WMD you were looking for......

    GoRon I totally agree with that quote. Question though...do you think that our plan has backfired a bit? I mean, we wanted to go to the middle east to assert ourselves: smash things and kill people. But now, we've shown that: Every time an American soldier has some fun making Hadji...

    AR15 vs. 12 gauge shotgun for home defense

    I'm no lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that if you nail a guy with a suppressed SBR, they're gonna say that you're the type of guy who looks for trouble. To be quite honest, I think that the suppressor is a bad idea. Even if you don't get nailed for the suppressor itself, it still just isn't as...
