    Replacement recoil pad too many shapes to choose from

    Anybody want to recommend a brand/shape recoil pad for a shotgun used in home defense and some range work. I will be using a more squared up stance. From reading, maybe convex (curved out) is better but not sure.

    Does practicing with a 22 pistol improve defensive carry of bigger caliber pistol?

    By practicing I mean shooting at the range. Maybe competition like IDPA if that's a thing. Ammo price difference is so big. Can mean a lot more practice.

    Appleseed questions

    1. Is kneeling an alternative to sitting as a shooting position? I'm just curious because kneeling would seem to be faster to get into than sitting, and more manoeuvrable after. 2. Everything I have heard about it (the techical aspects) sounds to be derived from that two part rifle...

    Bryco Arms lawsuit question

    I was just reading briefly about the Bryco Arms case which they lost because their gun was designed to "require the user to disable the manual safety before unloading", and just thought, isn't that exactly the same as a 1911? You can't pull the slide back to clear the chamber unless the thumb...

    Federal court rules against arbitrary suspension of habeas corpus

    Just thought everybody should know somebody cares about the constitution. Doesn't even look like he's a citizen. If you support the indefinite detention of a US resident just because the President labels him an "enemy combatant", just remember one day when they come for your firearms they can...

    Super sniper side vs rear parallax adjustment

    Hi can anybody mention how important the difference is between the super sniper SS10x42M (side parallax adjustment turret) vs SS10x42 (rear parallax adjustment). It cost $100 more for the side parallax adjustment. Would be my first scope, so I'm not sure the importance.

    Question about lee anniversary kit

    Got the kit today. Have a question regarding the case trimmer that came with it. The instructions say attach the left object to a shell holder... how? Also the right object can use a rod of some sort to align itself with the case, where do I get such a rod?

    Math question for you guys

    My rifle's POI is about 15 inches above POA, at 100 yards. How high should I raise my front sights (maybe fabricate a new one), to get POI=POA. The distance from rear sight to front sight is 22.5 inches.

    Recommend bino/monoculars to see holes on paper

    Can anyone recommend a bino/monoculars for me to see the holes I punch on paper? 50 yards to maybe 300 yards or more? I'm tired of walking to the target. Is a rifle scope overkill?

    Explain rifle rests to me

    Think I read somewhere here that a proper rest should be used when shooting paper targets. What are the features of a proper rest? Are sandbags a proper rest? Or a cardboard box? What is a bad rest? Thanks.

    Accuracy of AR15

    Hi can someone explain why AR15s on the market can achieve such high levels of accuracy? Is it because 1. Huge market share, many companies develop variants, and the quality and tolerances of some variants are extremely tight (and expensive) 2. A mechanical/design reason, such as direct...

    From a survey about Iraq

    What's the feeling on this? Looks like half the soldiers don't mind violating military codes and standards to protect a fellow soldier. Which is more important? Are those that report or those that don't report considered bad apples? If torture is accepted to save US soldiers, should we allow US...
