Hey guys, I just started my final undergrad semester of mechanical engineering and have to do a capstone project in which I design and build a novel product. Given how universal rails are, I'm interested in designing a new rail attachment that would fulfill a need and be marketable. So...

So I heard a presentation by a police officer the other day on 4th Amendment rights concerning seraches/seizures. Talking about how if a cop asks to search your car/bag/etc. you can say no and he can't force you to let him look. We all know that. One thing I hadn't heard before, is that in...

Just wondering if anyone else has this issue or if I just have a special rifle. On my WASR-10, if the bolt is pulled back slowly enough, it will catch on the top of the hammer/trigger assembly near the back of it's travel and stay open until a bit of force is applied to push it back past this...

I've been into guns for many years now, and always try to introduce new people to the sport, including my parents. Just happy to say that yesterday after several range trips with me, my father got his CHL. Now starts the fun of looking for a good CCW. Any recommendations other than Kahrs...

Like the title says, do any of you keep hearing protection by your HD gun? Before everyone freaks out on me about wasting time and not being able to hear what's going on, hear me out: I'm talking about those electronic muffs that take all of half a second to put on as you grab your...

Hey guys, I've been wanting to get a side rail scope mount for my ak. I basically had my heart set on the BP-02 / BP-02C low mount but I'm having a heck of a time finding one in stock for a decent price. Anyone know of anywhere? I sent an email to Tantal for the newest price list, but last...

So I bought a WASR a few months ago... a pretty good one too. (The rifle at least... one of the mags was jacked up and a clip on the mag pouch is missing). The wood looked alright but was pretty rough, so I sanded it with 400 then 600 grit sandpaper and it was incredibly smooth. I had...

I'm going to get a BP-02 mount for my AK and I want to get a red dot sight to test the accuracy of the rifle. I don't plan on having it mounted on the gun all the time, hence the quick release mount, but I do want the option of having a more precise sight than the irons. I'm having a hard...

I shot the best 3 shot group I think I've ever shot yesterday. I was excited so I figured I'd post some pics. :D Rifle: Savage 110 .308 Scope: Bushnell Elite 3200 10x40 Mildot Ammo: Federal Gold Medal Match 168gr BTHP Range: 100 yards Conditions: 10mph crosswind from left gusting to...

I bought a WASR-10 AK several weeks ago. It was pretty expensive by previous market prices, but since everywhere is out of stock, how did I really do? I paid $760 for: -WASR-10 AK rifle -2 30 round magazines -Cleaning kit -Bayonet/sheath -Mag pouch -Sling -60 rounds of 7.62x39...

Just wondering if any of you guys check other the targets of people next to you at the range? I have a pretty competitive mindset and I shoot in precision competitions... I can't help but look and see how other people are shooting (and of course what they're shooting). I generally find that...

I've been all over town looking for a good deal on a semi auto .22 and found something ridiculous. 2 out of the 3 Walmarts around me no longer sell guns at all! Their 'Sports and Leisure' section now just has one small aisle for crappy airsoft guns, some cheapo scopes, slings, some cleaning...

I don't have a .22 :what: I need one. I have specific criteria. What's a nicely priced (under $200 with a cheaper scope) .22 rifle that will fit what I want? -Semi-auto -Uses detachable magazines -Magazines hold at least 10 rounds, are available, etc. -Black sythetic stock -Black...

I started thinking after buying my WASR-10... If I had to grab one of my guns right now and have complete faith that it would fire every time I needed it to with no problems whatsoever, which would it be? So here's the question. If you had to get up right now from where you are sitting and...

Hey guys, I just picked up a WASR-10 Romanian AK clone with a couple mags and all the goodies. Made sure there weren't any of the common problems with it. I have a couple questions though. Who makes the best mags and where do you get them? I want standard looking 30 round mags. Does...

Hey guys, So despite my thread about wanting a polymer frame handgun, I think I've decided on a Beretta M9 series. I've used them several times and like them a lot. Very comfortable, good trigger, good balance, etc. Anyway, I need to know what I should be looking for when I go out to get...

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a semi-auto pistol within the month and would like a few good recommendations to fit these specific criteria. - Range use and home defense - 9mm or .40 - Polymer grip/lower frame - Full size - High capacity mags - Laser grip or laser spring guide is made...

Hey guys, I just saw a future weapons episode about the new LWRC IAR... Infantry Automatic Rifle. Perhaps it has its uses somewhere, but the way they explained it made it sound completely reduntant and useless. Mack's walking around with an M249 with a belt of ammo slung over his arm like...

While at the Air Force Academy a few weeks back I was in an engineering seminar and one thing they discussed was the Magnus Effect, which was noted for its effect on the point of impact for artillery rounds. For those of you not familiar, here's the basics...

Hey guys, I have a Savage 110 as you can see from my sig line. I like it a lot and it's darn accurate as long as I do what I'm supposed to. There are a couple more things I want to do to it though. 1. Some form of cheek rest. I shoot prone and benchrest, and with the stock I have it's...
