    O'Reilly response to anti-gun writer on his program

    I think O'Rilely is basically on our side and I congratulate him calling out Rosie O’Donnell. I think the whole 10 minute think was kind of dumb but I don't think that really means he is an anti just a bit confused. He admitted at the end of the segment that even a week long waiting period would...

    Stuck Cartridge

    I had the same problem with my sks it was my first rifle and I was devastated when it did not work right the first trip to range. I would be willing to bet it's just a bit of Cosmoline in the chamber. Especially if it functions well the first shot or two. If you have already disassembled and...

    Are you a new AR owner?

    I built mine first one this year. I hope it won't be my last one. I probably would have gotten an AR at some time but the last election, the next election and HR 1022 moved the AR up to the top of my list of guns I want to buy.

    Call me Paranoid

    I've had great luck with federal bulk packs. Federals are about the only thing that feeds well in my ruger mark 2. I will say I have had a box of winchester bulk pack that was just horrible. You could clearly see that some of the bullets looked way different than others. To use up the ammo it...

    AR vs AK vs SKS

    I own an sks and im buying an AR. I have a good friend who has an AR and an AK. I think the SKS is a great first Semi Auto gun to get, its cheap accurate enough to plink with, and rock solid reliable. The only advanages I see in a semi auto version that the Ak has over the sks are 30 rounds...

I am an intern and today I was at lunch with some of the younger employees at the company and the other interns. One of them is a RA at his university. He was talking about how they had caught...

    .22lr in .22mag?

    Im pretty sure that guns chambered for .22 mag should not fire .22 lr, long or short. The diameter of the bullet is slightly bigger in a 22 mag. 22lr guns with tublar magazines can sometimes use 22 shorts and longs but magazine fed guns ussually can not feed them because of the different...

After unpacking every thing I wonder...

    becoming a better shot

    Thank you all for the advice. I am in eastern Iowa and I don't believe there is a club within an hour of me. I think I will have plenty to read but I am still curious if anyone has any experience with the NRA classes. I would love to have a double action .22 revolver but when I bought my mark 2...
