If you want to fix all the small arms problems, just ask Johnson's wiz kids. They know everything.

If weapons are in such short supply, I wonder how good the training can be.

Look up ballistics on the Internet and make a graph with a pen and paper. Connect the dots. You'll get the idea. Or buy the computer software offered. Just enter "ballistics" in your search engine. You will get too many hits to read in one lifetime.

When I was in Vietnam there were always those that did not take care of their weapons. They were the few, but they were the ones that had problems, too. Some did not appear to understand how things worked and others just could not be bothered. I was a Navy Corpsman and saw the results of...

I'll shoot about a hundred rounds over about three or four sessions in the months before a hunt. I'm trying loads and sighting in the gun I shoot at different ranges up to 100 yards. That's my self imposed limit for 375 Winchester. I try to guess the distance to different targets we set up...

For me it's a Winchester M94 BB in 375 Winchester. I load them myself, use a tang sight and don't take shots over 100 yards. The 100 yard limit has not been a problem. Last year we had six hunters that claimed 400+ yard kills shoot at a target 400 paces away. One hit it every time and five...

1911Tuner...Thanks. It's been a long time for both of us. Majic said... "I just can't seem to warm up to DA/SA triggers on pistols...." For me, one of those two shots with such a pistol is a trow away. The harder I try to adjust, the worse I shoot. To me people that can shoot with a...

I have tried many pistols, both autoloaders and wheel guns. I have found the answer to which one is best after a lot of target shooting and plinking, not reading magazines. It's the Colt 1911. Why? Because I can hit what I aim at, better than any other pistol I have tried. I don't know...

I guess the good Senator was right and I should be protected from owning a rifle with a dangerous pistol grip. So let me get this right. Only bad guys will have this dangerous pistol grip and citizens will have the safe rifles without such a grip. I'm glad to hear that the law makers are...

Is an AR180B a better AR15? What exactly makes it different and is it better at anything? Is it a newer generation or just different? With the assult rifle ban is the AR180B legal in California. And what's with the statement a California State Senator made about assult rifles. In part he...

You're right, as Yoda says, 'Do or do not, there is not try'. I wish there was a way to try out different sight systems. As you may have guessed, I like to try things out, and do the best I can with things I have before trying something new. For home defense what's the difference in...

Speaking to the issue of ease of use we experimented in the barn yesterday. The time to bring the M94 to bear and fire a first shot, 25 feet and actually hit a 4 inch target was quicker with the M94 than an AK47 or any of several shotguns including a R870. The M94 shots were also solidly near...

OK, now the last of my questions about an M94 for home defense while living out in the sticks with no neighboors closer than 250 yards, and then only two. The question is sights. The stock sights are working ok but I have been looking at the ATN Ultrasight on the internet. Anyone have any...

Thanks for the hardware info for a flashlight. Now, anyone used one? How will does one work. Are you making yourself a bright bull's eye?

The police raid turned up guns, stolen property, cash, credit cards, but no drugs. There was also a laptop computer with schedules and maps with a spreadsheet listing property to be sold. Armed invaders are not always restricted to the drug trade. A lot of recient traffic appears to be in credit...

I'm trying to get my shots in before the owner tears the barn down, during Christmas break. Anyone have an idea for attaching a flashlight to a Winchester 94? And about my barn range. Yesterday I used a dummy as a target, with a wig, a jacket, all made up to look like a bad guy with a...

My pistol is a Colt 1911 and I don't own a shotgun. My other possible rifle choice is a 94 BB in 375 Winchester, but my wife won't shoot it because it kicks a bit harder. With the 94 30 30, I'm very accurate and practice in an old barn at night. With a bit of moon light I can hit moving...

I put targets in the brush and taken shots from various positions and ranges up to 100 yeards. I took shots that I thought I would take while hunting. I don't shoot through brush at deer any more, and I was using a 375 Winchester. with 220 to 250 gr flat nose bullets. You either miss the...

I've had a 9mm pistol for home defense with 147 gr hp's. A police raid of a group suspected in home breakins in our neighbor city found all had body armour. I now have a Winchester 94 in 30 30 with 150 gr hp's by the bed stand. Any thoughts?

The M1 Carbine was issued to officers and sargeants and was to be used in close quarters combat. Sounds like a ticket for home defense. I shot one in the military and considered it a good plinking gun, very reliable and field stripping was one screw and the whole thing came apart. The...
