    Best gunfighter.

    Simo Hayha. He was a Finnish sniper with over 700 Soviet kills to his name. He had a confirmed 505 kills with an iron-sight Mosin Nagant and an additional 200 plus with a 9mm Suomi. He did all that in about 100 days that had very limited daylight hours. He averaged 7 kills a DAY. He...

    Should I tell the Fire Department where my guns and reloading equipment is located?

    You can disregard that statement as blatantly untrue. Most every firefighter individually and fire department collectively will take every reasonable risk possible to stop/control/contain a fire and limit the damage. In most cases they are highly trained and highly motivated to fight fire in a...

    Officials said the compound bow and arrow is as powerful as a machine gun

    Obviously we need to regulate, license, control, and even possibly ban them. Oh the humanity. b

    Name that gun!

    Close enough. Its a Iver Johnson Safety Automatic. The same kind of gun incidentally was used by Leon Czolgosz in the assassination of President McKinley. Your turn! b

    Accuracy and MOA Question

    Its the basic stainless model, the FSV I think? I originally set this rifle up as a tack driving squirrel gun and stuck with a 4.5power scope. However, the way the Marlin has been shooting with bulk ammo, I'm thinking that will be the squirrel gun and the Savage will be turned into a target...

    Accuracy and MOA Question

    Interesting. Having re-done the math now it still is a bit short of where I want it, but every little bit helps I suppose. What's really frustrating at the moment is that the $100 pawn shop Marlin Model 60 with the mediocre trigger and fixed 4 power BSA $15 gun show scope in dove tail...

    Accuracy and MOA Question

    And all this time I thought it was 42! ;) Thanks so much for the explanation. I was about to pull what little hair I have out last night trying to figure that out. If you can't tell, Math ain't my strong suit. I do have to admit I'm a bit discouraged by those numbers, but I suppose for...

    Accuracy and MOA Question

    Hello all, I've just gotten back from the range today and saved a couple of targets with 3 and 5 shot groups on them in order to check the accuracy of the rifles I was shooting. I'm quite happy with both of them as they were both able to shoot shotgun shells off a tree limb at 50+ yards, but...

    Name that gun!

    I've looked for it as an anti-tank rifle, as a shotgun, and as a light machine gun. No dice. I give up... b

    Rimfire Bi-Pod

    I've got a Savage MKII that I'd like to put a bi-pod on. I've not ever added one to any of my rifles before, so I'm kind of clueless about how to do it right. I'd like a light weight bi-pod that would allow me to shoot offhand if I need to without making the gun totally front heavy. Also...

    Scope, rings, base questions? tikkaT3

    I cant reccomend DNZ gamereaper mounts enough. I have them on several of my rifles. Since I started using them I've become a big fan of 1 piece mounts. Size wise, if it helps, I have a Medium DNZ mount on my Marlin XL7 and it has an Ospry International 50mm objective scope on it. That...

    Phone Case that Fits Thick Belts

    5.11 makes a case that will work on anything from a slim dress belt to a 2" wide duty belt and bigger. I got one at my local gun and police supply store for less than 10 bucks, and it is by far and away the best cell phone case I've ever had. I wear it every day without fail to carry my...

    Silly looking ammo

    Wow... I wonder what the increased resistance of pushing a bullet through water does to the overall pressures involved in shooting one of those. I'm thinking SAMMI doesn't have specs for that... b

    2011 ruger products

    They had similar hype last year regarding the release of the SR9c. Oh well. I'm sure I'll fondle one at the gun show and be momentarily swayed. Then I'll go back to drooling over a 4" GP-100. One of these days I'm actually going to buy that damn thing... b
