    Anyone ever used a Bang Stick?

    There is no worry about using the bangstick under water as the head is in direct contact with object. It must be depressed to fire and the concussion is directed and absorbed by the soft tissue mass of the shark. I think the concussion is just about as devistating as the shot into the body.

    any regulations regarding shooting on one's own property?

    As an additional comment, I am not from Ohio but I do have close friend there. They are trying to pass a Township (similar to county) regulation there which will prohibit discharging a firearm if there are a certain number of residences within a square mile. I believe the figure is 10 but not...

    any regulations regarding shooting on one's own property?

    not only are there 50 states, there are hundreds of times that in counties and townships, each with its own regulations. However, if the land is over 10 acres and the rounds do not depart the property or endanger the other residents, I would think you have the right to shoot on you own property.

    Norinco 97 Trench Gun

    Maybe I spelled it wrong, but it is like said above used on musical bows and also in sports. It is the stuff in the little white bag pitchers use on their hands in baseball or rock climbers use in the little bags on their belts. Get the finely powdered kind. I bought a box at he drug store 30...

    Anyone ever used a Bang Stick?

    having been a SCUBA diver since late 60's I have seen the Bang Sticks and Shark Darts talked about. I have seen and used the Bang Sticks in .44mag and 12 ga. Liked the 12 ga best. Not only did I feel better damage but felt safer if had an accidental discharge, since 12 ga was shorter range...

    Norinco 97 Trench Gun

    back in the late 60's when handgun scopes were just starting to become popular and noone had drilled frames, Bushnell had a scope mount which was a spring formed to fit around the top strap. They supplied a small vial of rosin with it to help keep it from slipping. I have used that technique...

    Scary thought

    The history channel did not say tha only one crime has been committed. It said only one murder had been committed. I had always heard it was crime, but the show said murder. That is why it caught my eye.

    Scary thought

    That's kinda like the optimist saying the glass is half full and the pessimist saying it is half empty. Wouldn't it have been more effective if they had said half of the machline guns are owned by the general public.

    Name this automatic rifle, the county of origin, and the caliber.

    Essentially the converfsion consisted of fitting a cylinder on the right side of the weapon originating at a point approximately midpoint of the barrel and extending beyond the rear of the action. This cylinder acted as a gas cylinder in its forward part and a piston tube for the remainder...

    Is Cobray still around?

    Sorry, made mistake. I should have said RPB after MAC and not SWD. SWD came after Leatherwood, I believe. My 25 guns were RPB's Most RPB's were Marrieta MAC's stamped on other side with RPB

    Cold Barrel - 1st shot in real life?

    The research I have seen has nothing to do with temperature. It is the first shot down an oiled bbl, even if you remove as much oil as possible. I have noted on my accurate guns that if I don't clean they have the same point of impact. Only first (fouling shot) after cleaning is off and...

    Is Cobray still around?

    If I remember correctly, MAC (Military Armament Corp) was Werbel's and Ingram worked with him. These are the origional Powder Springs and Marretta open bolt subguns. MAC went Chapter 7 and SWD took over (that's Daniels). The Cobray was the logo that Daniels bought at the bankruptcy auction as...

    Fav semi-auto "assult" rifle that you have OWNED?

    "assault rifles"??? Since none of these are really assault rifles, I will concede to the press related change of nomenclature and go for the M-1. However my favorite is not listed the AR-10. I have had most of these in full auto configuration and each one is has its own advantages, but really...
