    Highly Disappointed in "The Daily Beast"

    I liked The Daily Beast on Facebook because I like to get my news from a variety of sources. I know they probably have a bias, but all news sources do; that's why I like a variety. Fox News AND NPR... Yesterday they had an article by Cliff Schecter, called "AK-47's, Now Made in America. The...

    Savage 110 barrels

    Just bought a cheap old Savage 110 in .270. I would like to rebarrel to a stainless 6.5x55 Swedish. Who sells good barrels at reasonable prices?

    Wall Street Journal on Mass Shootings

    Here is a very good article from the Wall Street Journal talking about the psychology behind mass shooters, and how a change in how the shootings are reported could reduce the number of mass shootings. http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303309504579181702252120052

    The Sound Barrier

    I'm not sure if this is a gun question exactly, but hear this out. When you go back and read about Chuck Yeager, they keep repeating that they were not sure Yeager could survive going faster than the speed of sound. They thought he might smash against a wall, or come apart. Didn't they...

    Patton

    I read somewhere that the reason Patton did not carry a 1911 was that he once had a negligent discharge with a 1911. Can anyone on THR help me find a reputable source for this rumor?

    Missouri/Arkansas reciprocity

    If I had a CCW license for MO, could I carry legally in Arkansas? Also, is there anything I need to know? For example, do I need to inform law enforcement, etc?

    Glock 29sf vs. xds

    Just for giggles, which do you like for concealed carry. I love XD's, but I have always wanted a 10mm. I would love you hear your thoughts. :neener: And by "xds", I mean the new, tiny, .45acp XDS. Not plural of "XD."

    List of Averted Mass Shootings

    Yesterday I was listening to Sean Hannity, and he was reading off a list of incidents where a shooter had walked into a crowded location and opened fire, and then was quickly stopped by armed citizens who were present. Does anyone know where I could find such a list? a) It could be handy in...

    Question that will probably make me look dumb...

    In recent years, tactical, vertical foregrips have become popular. I understand why - I think they make for more comfortable shooting. My question, though, is on AK and AR rifles, is there any reason why you can't just hold on to the magazine?

    458 socom

    I don't mean to talk trash at all, I am just curious: How much is 458 socom actually used by the military? I read "Blackhawk Down," so I know some military felt that the 5.56 was not enough to knock enemies down, but I've also read "American Sniper," where he says the best way to stop a...

    Blockhead Glock Question:

    Fact: I know absolutely nothing about Glocks, so I apologize in advance if this comes out sounding foolish. Can you put a Glock 35 slide on a Glock 27 frame without doing major modifications?

    Book related rifle question:

    I am reading a book right now. The author claims he was trained until he was an expert with "...the heavy, powerful 300 Win Mag bolt-action .308 caliber rifle." I won't say what the book is yet, because I don't want to skew the poll, but this struck me as odd phrasing.

    Why no 10mm Hi-Power?

    There are 10mm 1911's, 10mm cz75's, 40 cal Hp's, but no 10mm Hi-powers. Why?
