    Carry gun while driving a commercial vehicle?

    *adds a wikipedia "citation needed" tag* Ha! Keep in mind, LEO vehicles are commercial as well, mr stephens. The officer you called out, will for sure leave his arms back at the precinct now after he heard that! I drive a truck and some states (such as CA) I ask about various laws about the...

    This website is banned,

    My friend is in the army and they use (depending on where you are at) a lot of filtering. Sad to say, a lot of it was caused by (sorry, vets):cuss: solders releasing sensitive information out (such as an equipments weak spot) on their blogs and whatnot and then having terrorists (and the public...

    This website is banned,

    now I am curisous to see if some networks I am on ban cabelas. I bet they would. What is fun to do, is the location many filters use is at their website. The website also has a "submit new site" function, and you can list the catagory. When I get those, I type in their website, and list it as...

    This website is banned,

    You are reminding me of when I did some of that programming at an apartment setup - had a lot of tenants doing lot's of different stuff. I never really was into blocking particular content - didn't bother me they can view what they want to view. I blocked services and various program...

    What happened to Cabelas?

    I am all over the US so I am usually going by a cabelas every day or so. I usually make myself not go in as I will be at LEAST 500 bucks poorer than when I went in. Usually buying a bunch of reloading supplies. I like going into the one in Wisconsin as I like their cheese balls and orange...

    checking a handgun at baggage counter in Newark airport

    I never flew with a gun before but I would probably contact everyone I could think of that would be primarily involved, at least in the beginning of some major problem scenario. I would make sure that the contacts would at least include the airport security and the people associated with...

    Your First Gun...Still Got It?

    Yeah still have the first one, but then again, I never get rid of guns. I don't get rid of anything really for that matter;) - it is all still around.... somewhere. Oh, and yeah, my first was a 22LR. I bet that is what most people have had as their first. At least my first vehicle was...

    What is a high powered rifle?

    Hmmm....I would say it would be a powered rifle for use up high. Perhaps on some high roads. Probably a lot of them up in the white mountains. Maybe one for over 50,000 ft. What elevation is the high road at? I would put it at the same as the roads. No 50,000 ft roads, so guess we're back to the...

    BP charges weight vs. volume

    Thanks for the info B.F.! So BP was really measured in "weight", but they use volume tools as a means of getting that weight, being evident by using units of weight rather than volume. Confusing - but it does make sense if you realize that BP weapons were "loaded in the field" - not the case...

    .308/30-06 debate im having with myself

    Seems many readers are having problems with one of my posts, especially because I stated "I barely shot either" in it. That is because my conclusion was not based on personal experience but on physics and similarities to cartridges of known good accuracy design. I apologize for being vague or...

    Help With Home Defense Shotgun

    I don't think the criminal will care what size barrel you have, how many rounds you have, what shot size you are using, what type of stock you have, what choke the barrel is, what type of sights you use, what color.... etc etc. All he (or she!!!) is concerned about is if you are able to hit...

    BP charges weight vs. volume

    BP is measured in grains (weight), however, the new "replacement" powders such as pyrodex and triple se7en are altered to make the VOLUME the same, not weight. If you use REAL bp, you can use either type of measure, if you use a "replacement" then you have to go with volume, or use weight with...

    .308/30-06 debate im having with myself

    ART EASTMAN: Good comment. That is true to remember that the 308 was intended as being suitable as a machine gun round. Like the 50 BMG are not 'high end' load designs (case capacity vs caliber), but medium. They are meant to shoot one round after the next without over heating/fatiguing the...

    .308/30-06 debate im having with myself

    John4me, I would say that, first off, the speed increase of an 06 compared to a 308 really is marginal, it is not all that much more. In the cases where you really need a quicker moving bullet - so the time of flight is reduced so the bullet would be under the influence of disruption to accuracy...

    500 S&W Squibb/Dudd round - any ideas?

    Thanks for the info all! I will have to go and dig them up now - i'm curious. I will check the crimps and charge weights. I do have some H-Titegroup that that link above showed good for plinking rounds. I'm sure it would still pack a good punch at a campsite bruin. What is different in the...

    500 S&W Squibb/Dudd round - any ideas?

    I will have to dig up some other rounds from that batch and check the crimps - I ll post a pic when i find them. I would assume I would put a good crimp in it - especially since it has a grove and its not the single shot. But that could be it - H-110 may only burn correctly under high pressure...

    .308/30-06 debate im having with myself

    negative There is a better edge (relative!) to the older stats as there are better powders for the '06, but the 308 is still more accurate. You are too confused by speed being the determining factor to accuracy. Just because you push the bullet faster than that same bullet in a slower...

    .308/30-06 debate im having with myself

    Accuracy has more to do with consistency rather than trajectory. The 308 has less velocity than the '06 but that doesn't mean anything as far as accuracy except in unpredictable windy scenarios where you would rather have the least time of flight. The most accurate cartridge to date is the 6mm...
