    DREAD weapon system

    Someone should point out that that thing isn't a firearm, and hence isn't a machine gun. It's civilian legal.

    Unorthodox Gun Ideas and Designs

    Probably not good ideas: 1: Autoloading rifle using repulsion of neodymium magnets instead of a spring to reciprocate the bolt. 2: Autoloading pistol incorporating a small compressed air cylinder to rack the slide, enabling those without much strength to charge the gun.

    What did you get for National Buy a Gun Day?

    There's a National Buy a Gun Day? I had no idea. I bought this last Tuesday, which is close enough: AR-180B

    Why Are Sexual Predators Ever Released?

    If we'd quit locking up millions of drug offenders, we'd have plenty of prison space to give forcible rapists and child molesters real life sentences - until their last breath life sentences. In principle, I wouldn't be opposed to executing rapists; only the chance of wrongful conviction gives...

    In the unlikely event that I ever come into possesion of a Lorcin, I'll tape it up at the 25 yard line and use it as a target for a real pistol.

    Makarov VS. Hi-Point

    an important point: .30 Luger is not interchangeable with .30 Mauser/7.62x25mm Tokarev. The .30 Luger is shorter and would not chamber properly in a 7.62 Tok gun. I love my CZ-52, but I wouldn't use one for any serious purpose due to the unreliability of the decocking safety - it is prone to...

    Biggest Gun You have ever seen? (Size-wise)

    Biggest handgun? My 8 3/8" Smith .500 Biggest rifle? A H&H .700 Nitro Express - fully engraved with a $250,000 price tag, in a gun store specializing in high-end items. The same store had a matched pair of 4 and 8 gauge double shotguns at the same time as the .700. Biggest artillery (in...

    Smith & Wesson 2 piece barrel 620 Wave of the future?

    Not the same thing. A Super Redhawk has two inches of barrel threads in that frame extension. The Alaskan just bobs the barrel flush with the end of the extension, but it's a conventional barrel.

    460 Magnum information here: http://www.smith-wessonforum.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/016559.html If I had been consulted, I'd have suggested "457 S&W Magnum."
