    Wrote to Governor Gregoire in protest.

    What is this...? (video heavy)

    Haha, there was a crossbow on the front of that AK monstrosity!

    Fn Gpn?

    Anybody heard of a Fabrique Nationale prototype light machine gun called the GPN? I ran across it being mentioned as the inspiration for an old airsoft gun, but haven't seen any references to it anywhere else.

    Greatest Shot ever taken?

    I thought the Canadian sniper was Cpl. Rob Furlong. And didn't Hathcock try to recreate Oswald's shot and found it all but impossible?

    is there a gun you wouldn't want?

    What's wrong with the M76? The Joker seems to like it alright! ;)

    AN-94 Abakan Internals

    Perhaps the sear is of the rotating kind, like the M16 burst limiter. The first two notches would be spaced closer together, letting the hammer fall twice in short succession then is trapped on a third position that lets it wait a little longer. The fire control selector would simply disengage...

    M16 family of rifles...3 round burst accuracy?

    That would be the G11, so you're right, never issued. The AN-94 does achieve 1800 rpm in a two round burst.

    FAD assault rifle

    I too am intrigued by the short action; the only bullpup with the magazine that close to the butt that I know of (besides the mythical TKB-022) is the Magpul PDR. Sure, with this furniture it's ugly, but not because of the basic configuration. It's just unfinished. And as for the circular...

    AR from Pistol to Rifle?

    Dang, I wonder what the bolt carrier speed is on those first two!

    Gun Ban In Seattle

    Sent the mayor an e-mail. Can't have politicians chipping away at my freedoms before I'm even old enough to exercise them!

    New Magpul Dynamics Carbine DVD

    All of the new Magpul Dynamics videos have exceptional photography and editing. I'm pretty impressed.

    Unusual concealment methods?

    How about that Taxi Driver/Equilibrium style spring loaded sleeve rig? Is that purely a thing of fiction?

    Why so few short-recoil rifles?

    The AN-94's barrel along with the entire receiver group does recoil, but the action of the bolt and pulley system is gas operated. At least that's what I understand from Mr. Popenker's page on the matter.

    Gun Related STUPID Movie Mistakes

    All miniguns are 7.62mm. That's why it's called a minigun: the 7.62mm round is quite small compared to the 25mm or 30mm rotary aircraft cannons. I think Shadow meant that the brass were clearly blanks, although I never noticed that. I'll have to look closer next time. In The Terminator...

    Dumb question, would this work?

    Ok, thanks all! That makes a lot of sense. Hah, it never occurred to me that the action would have to cycle again after it fired! But that's interesting about the shotguns. Would you fire it that way? It seems like there'd be situations where you need every millisecond after you pump it...

    Dumb question, would this work?

    I have no handguns yet to try this on and I wouldn't want to at the range because it sounds like a really stupid idea anyway, but with that said: If the slide is locked back, you insert a magazine, hold down the trigger, and then unlock the slide- would it fire? My limited experience with...

    one for you gunsmiths and inventors out there

    Icebones, I came up with a very similar list of requirements for the zombie gun I'm designing, although without the STANAG magazine (we want reliability under all conditions, right?), and AL-7 type recoil balancing instead of the Kriss bolt. I'm designing mine right now in Cinema 4D (not the...

    Armatac quad-stack magazine

    Long time lurker, first time poster. Apologies if this has been posted before, I searched but couldn't find anything. Armatac, the makers of an obscenely expensive 150rd drum magazine for the AR, show a developmental quad stack 50rd box magazine on their website...
