Here's my first poll! OK, here we are in mid-February 2009. Obama is the President, Congress is utterly controlled by the Democrats, Holder is the AG, the antis are salivating in anticipation of the time when they can put together another AWB and other legislation. So, you have a few...

I found this gem today: http://www.backwoodshome.com/articles2/wood115.html If anyone has any suggestions for improvements, sources of supply for some of the products used in the article, or can identify the rust preventative oil used, please chime in. After all, with the Obamessiah about to...

I came across this and thought that it'd be interesting for anyone who has ever lubed a gun, or worried about not doing so well enough. This is not available now, but it is more slippery than Teflon and is permanent...

Does anyone have any experience with the military surplus M1A/M14 magazines offered by Widener's? Are these US surplus, Taiwanese, other? I'm a bit tight for money, and I'd like to pick up these $15 mags-but only if they are of decent quality. If they're crap, I'll spend 2x as much for the...

In Field and Stream. http://www.fieldandstream.com/article/Hunting/Special-Report-An-Exclusive-Interview-with-Senator-Barack-Obama/3 LICATA: You mentioned common-sense gun legislation. Would you consider the assault weapons ban and registration of guns to fall into that category of...

I am on the horns of a dilemma. I've got a Remington 700VS in .308 that I acquired about 12 or so years ago NIB. I've got around 500 rounds through it, and I'm pleased with its accuracy (roughly 1 MOA) with 168 grain bullets (mostly SMKs, but also some AMAXs and some Noslers), but I'm not...

I've recently come across some data for the mil-spec loadings of various .30-06 and 7.62 x 51 rounds. Many of these use IMR 4895 as the powder. I have none of that, but a fair amount of H4895. You can see the question coming, can't you? Can they be used substantially interchangably from...

I got my Lee Classic Turret Press a few weeks ago, along with the Pro powder dispenser, double disk kit, etc. Naturally, after reviewing this forum, I also got the powder measure riser. However, in the course of operating the turret - specifically, in changing turrets to set up new calibers -...

I got my Lee Classic Turret Press a couple months ago and have successfully loaded both 9mm (about 500) and .45 (50 last night, no problems), both using Hogden Titegroup. I've been using the Lee autodisk. However, I also tried to load .38s using Unique, and while some of the loads came out...

OK, not literally. However, I just got a card from the South Texas Blood & Tissue Center (San Antonio) offering anyone who donates 2 pints between May 1 and August 31 a $25 Walmart gift card. Donate now, then sometime in August (after your 8 weeks have passed), and you get to spend $25 in...

I've got an opportunity to obtain a large number of .30 carbine bullets (110 grain) for a pittance. I have no M1 Carbine, and I'm not planning on getting one. This would be for other rifles. Some are pulled from US ammo, some are higher-quality foreign manufactured. My question is: Can...

Does anyone have any experience loading this stuff? I saw some good reviews on the Midway website about it, which commented on uniformity of weight, consistent dimensions, etc., and a few who said that they got better results in bolties even before getting fire-formed cases. I'd appreciate any...

Are there any states (not DC) which don't: 1) Guarantee some kind of right to keep and/or bear arms in their constitution? or 2) Guarantee some kind of right to keep and/or bear arms by statute? I had a discussion with someone who claims that the Parker decision is unimportant...

OK, I've got about $400 of "gun money" saved up, and that old familiar itch is really beginning to bother me. I wish that I had a tax refund coming, but I owe money, so I'll have to make due with this amount. Another option is to accumulate this totally discretionary money, which I add to at a...

I have a good friend who, owns a bunch of guns and who has a CHL (he and I are both TX residents). His wife and he both come from families with a history of ADD or ADHD, and he told me that they both have lots of problems concentrating on tasks, etc. (i.e. signs of adult ADD, according to him)...

I just got a Lee Classic Turret Press and a bunch of the spare turrets, one for each caliber. I've loaded a bunch of 9mm and am starting on .38 specials, and it is a HUGE time saver while producing very consistant ammo (i.e. the powder throws and the OAL). When I switched from the 9mm turret...

I got a Lee Classic Turret a few weeks back from Midway. Its mounted, I've got dies set up just the way I want them in one of the turrets for 9mm (I have 7 others for calibers that I'll also load on it), and everything is perfect...except that the powder measure is throwing powder all over the...

http://newsbusters.org/node/8064 Well known liberal Rosie O’Donnell used the shooting at an Amish school in Pennsylvania as a springboard to promote gun control. O’Donnell, who famously sparred with Tom Selleck (video), stated on Tuesday's edition of ABC's "The View" that the event should...

Has anyone heard of this stuff or used it? http://www.tc-11.com/ultimate_gun_care.htm The homepage has a bare metal comparision test http://www.tc-11.com/index.html , and this stuff comes out way better than CorrosionX (which surprises me, given the great rep that it has). Comments welcome...
