    Could this become a Waco/Ruby Ridge? Happening RIGHT NOW!

    Their little MP5 squirt guns won't save them from getting their heads blown off by a rifle, assuming that's what he has. And they know it. They'd be awfully stupid to just kick in his door, use a flash-bang, and try to run in there. He's probably behind cover, waiting with his rifle. The...

    Buying a .50, questions.

    I wouldn't go so far as to say that NO clubs will allow you to shoot a .50. Even my gun club, which is pretty anal about a lot of things, allows the .50 BMG on the 200 yard range (I'm not sure about the 100 yard range).

    Buying a .50, questions.

    I'd be a bit concerned about putting a .50 BMG upper on an aluminum AR lower. I wonder if the recoil could do damage to the takedown pin area over time. The Ferret has a steel lower available, which should eliminate that concern. For a relatively inexpensive .50, the Serbu is also well worth...

    The Police And You

    The profession of policing could be very honorable if its sole purpose was the defense of peoples' rights. That would involve going after people who harm the innocent: murderers, rapists, robbers, burglars, etc., and arresting them using the minimum force possible. And there are some cops who do...

    So many AK's! Which is the best?

    I'm with Roscoe regarding the .223 AK (although mine is in 7.62x39). The .223 is probably a deadlier round, it's more accurate at longer ranges, and high-quality steel core ammo is available. A good .223 AK should be about as reliable as any other AK. Mags for the .223 AK are probably scarcer...

    VERY, VERY SERIOUS QUESTION

    Well, yes and no. Read on... These things can be bought on the black market if someone wants to. They can even be fabricated by someone with the necessary equipment and skill. Granted, that's not nearly as easy, safe, or convenient as doing it legally, which you're obviously right about us not...

    shower gun?

    Well, maybe if they're left in salt water... Is there a more rust-resistant pistol out there? :confused:

    VERY, VERY SERIOUS QUESTION

    None of this discussion is illegal, since we are speaking in hypothetical "what if..." terms.

    VERY, VERY SERIOUS QUESTION

    Unfortunately, it might not be as far as it seems. We're certainly not at the point where people are being dragged off to concentration camps yet. But as you know, we've already seen a taste of gun confiscation (New Orleans, post-Katrina). And several states have already nullified the Second...

    VERY, VERY SERIOUS QUESTION

    You're right, AP: Our rights do not depend on what the majority believes, and we should never accept a tyranny of the majority. While working within the system is something we need to keep doing as long as we can, let's not forget that the Powers That Be can manipulate or change the system...

    VERY, VERY SERIOUS QUESTION

    This thread will probably get locked, but here goes anyway... Absolutely, without hesitation. My hatred for those who would attempt to disarm and enslave me is extreme and FAR out of proportion to any fear of death I have. We're all going to die one day anyway, and it might be from something a...

    California ALERT! Semi-autos in danger!

    The same could be said of those who drank alcohol in spite of Prohibition -- that they were responsible for fueling the violence committed by people like Al Capone. Of course, now that alcohol is legal, there are no longer gigantic profits to be made from its sale on the black market. So the...

    .50 bmg question

    Interesting information. Could it be that the Raufoss tends to go through a person before detonating? That would make sense if the round is designed to have a delayed detonation so that it goes off after penetrating the armor of a vehicle.

    The Wonderful Cheap Gun Cleaner, Windex

    Ammonia-based cleaners CAN damage chrome lining (by causing oxidation) if they're left in the bore for a long enough time. They're probably fine to use for rinsing the bore, etc., after shooting corrosive ammo as long as they're followed by enough of something else like CLP not too long afterward.

    Thoughts on Obama, Mccain, and alternatives

    Definitely go with Ron Paul in the primary. Every single person who cares about RKBA has a grave duty to support him. If he doesn't win the nomination, then it's Libertarian for me. Will that mean I threw my vote away? No. It will mean that all the gun owners who didn't vote Libertarian threw...

    shower gun?

    Glocks don't rust, so they do fine in humid environments.

    Warrantless Wiretapping Program Brought Under FISA Court

    Demiurge, Safety is not supposed to trump freedom in this country. This is supposed to be the "land of the free and the home of the brave," where it's "liberty or death." These aren't meaningless or idealistic slogans; they reflect the principles this country was founded upon. Freedom always...

    WAKE UP AGAIN

    Rojoko, thank you for your efforts on behalf of the RKBA. You deserve an "attaboy." I agree that the NRA is not doing nearly enough. This has come up a few times here recently. I'd like to see them (and the GOA, etc.) go on the offensive and start lobbying hard for the repeal of the laws on...

    Warrantless Wiretapping Program Brought Under FISA Court

    If we suffer an attack it will be the Democrats' and Republicans' fault because they insist on spending trillions of dollars and thousands of lives creating bitter enemies in the Middle East instead of using those resources to seal America's borders. Sometimes I think the Ds and Rs want...
