Have been to the gun show held at the Riviera in January. This is a good size show, and as I recall had a lot of antique, collectable and high end arms. Can't remember is this is the show where one vender had a trash barrel stuffed full of AR's of mixed manufacture and configuration, your...

30mag What is your major going to be? I know one of the Ag related colleges is supposed to have at least one scholarship that has a preference for gun related activites.

Dillon Precision as far as reloading equipment and other gun related accessories. Prompt, friendly service. In my experience their no B.S. warranty is just that.

A friend of mine has a Chip McCormick drop in trigger that he seems to really like. They come with either a straight or curved trigger, as I recall he said he liked the straight trigger after he got used to it. Not sure what the theory behind the straight trigger is though.

On LRB's it seems like I saw on their website that they will custom build to customer specs, but I guess I am rather uneducated on what options are available and would be wanted. Also regarding a dedicated optic rifle, I have had in mind to have a scope with quick connect mounts that would not...

I have been kicking around the same issue of trying to decide between an AR type and M14/M1A type. Want something to put a good scope on, and think the AR's can handle that issue with no problems. On the M14 type, does anyone have any experience with the M25 style rifles such as maybe the...

An old man years ago told me that if you hang a handkercheif from a clothes line (don't remember if silk or cotton or whatever) and shoot with a .22 that it will not put a hole in it (the bullet will slide across the material and push the handkercheif out of the way. If you then take a .22 round...

CMP website is www.odcmp.com so you can do some research on the requirements (affiliated club membership, etc.) ahead of time so you will be ready to go. I got an SA through the mail and have been very happy with it, but I agree would be nice to look at them in person if possible. CMP website...

MSNBC.com Killings turn focus on San Francisco sanctuary law Undocumented immigrants, including felons, shielded from deportation The Associated Press updated 5:18 a.m. CT, Thurs., July. 24, 2008 SAN FRANCISCO - The scene repeats itself daily on city streets: a driver gets stuck bumper to...

As others have stated, dry firing helped me too. I would rack the slide each time rather than just thumb cocking the hammer. Would line up the sights on my target and hold steady untill after the trigger was pulled. The sights should not move from the point you pick on your target as the trigger...

I have shot some phenolic plastic that is used for counter tops and toilet partitions. Shot some scraps from a counter top which were prob between 1" to 1 1/4" thick with 38 super and 45 ACP. 38 super went through like butter (they were handload 150 gr lead @ around 1400 fps) while the 45 ACP...

I have been in a gun shop where the employees all are carrying, and even have a sign saying something to the effect for the customers to keep their hands in sight. These guys are aware of what is going on in thier store, would not be a good target for a robbery.

Checked into a hotel and went to the room and opened the electronic lock with the card. The door was latched from the inside and the lights were out and all was quiet (this was in the afternoon). My first thought was the maid left the latch on while accessing the room through a door that adjoins...

I have seen revolvers jam in a couple of situations. First a squib load jamming the bullet between the barrel and cylinder, which has to be driven back into the cylinder in order for the crane to open. Second the ejection rod unscrewing under recoil and wedging against the frame so tight the...

TSRA is an affiliated organization with CMP (Civilian Marksmanship Program). Membership in TSRA meets the requirement by CMP for being a member of a CMP affiliated organization, which is one of the pre-requisites for purchases from CMP including rifles.

I thought TSRA backed the legislation that passed in the last session that clarified and made it easier to legally carry a gun in a car.

Wasn't there some research being done at some point on electro-magnetic rail guns that were intended to overcome the physical limitations on how fast a powder or explosive could expand in order to acheive higher velocity?

I was on the range shooting a qualification in a class with several new shooters. The instructor gave the rules, including if you have a problem or question to raise your hand so he can halt firing and help remedy the problem. During a reloading period, the girl next to me raises her hand and...

We had been out in the desert for a long weekend of camping and shooting. On the way back into town we flipped the jeep we were in, scattering the contents including numerous rifles and pistols all over the place. I got a ride in an ambulance, and my friend who was driving got one in a...
