These are not rates, but total numbers of injuries + deaths per year. The smoothed line is simply a four period moving average. Do we hunt sharks to extinction? Do we forbid our kids from going to the beach? Do we worry ourselves sick about shark attacks? Do we arm life guards with harpoons...

Using data from a recent article in Mother Jones and from the Univ. of Florida Natural History Museum, I compiled this comparison of shark attacks and mass shooting frequency in the USA by year. Please distribute this chart, I think it speaks for itself. FYI, visit the new New Mexico Gun Forum...

Man, its still down. What the heck. Maybe it was raided by Deval Patrick for subversive content threatening state control by the Commiewealth. I heard they were not going along with the Dear Leader's new gun control package.

AG = attorney general. Has God-like power in MA. Can ban guns on a whim, stop importation of ammo or anything else she wants.

Probably got shut down by the AG, just like everything else... I can't get on either. A few hours ago, it was serving up a blank page with a "cgi-bin" directory.

Not exactly. As much as I would love to jump on the Swiss-loving bandwagon, there is a critical difference between the Swiss model and the US model. When he says the Swiss people are the government, he really means it. In other words, their arms are not for protection against tyranny. They don't...

Let me summarize: Obama was elected, Democrats have nearly a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. Translation: we are all screwed after the economy recovers. :what:

Never had a problem with aluminum Blazer in my semi-auto handguns. Never had a problem with steel cased Wolf in my AR-15 (that I could actually definitively blame on the ammo). If you look at the rockwell hardness data online, you will see that aluminum is typically a little softer than brass...

I need pre-ban mags anyway (go to school in MA), so I am stocking up now since I planned on buying some anyway, and I might as well do now just in case the availability of pre-ban mags shrinks suddenly. But it would be at least a year before a new AWB went into effect, I would imagine. So its...

Hand Size The P22 has a very small grip. For most men, this basically makes the P22 worthless. If you have average man sized hands, get the SP22. In addition, if you want more of a target shooting gun, get the SP22. The P22 is really a tiny little toy plinker.

The LED is quite bright and the construction is very well machined aluminum. It is very high quality. However, do you really want the TLR-2 with the laser? I say this because it is not the best accuracy wise. For one thing, it is very far below the barrel, increasing the parallax problem. Your...

One thing to keep in mind, is that on a S&W Model 41 that has never been disassembled or has not been so in a long time, the barrel can almost get "stuck" in the frame. What happens is that gun powder residue, wax and old grease solidifies in within the barrel locking "lugs" and/or the latching...

The smallest caliber I WILL carry is a .22 short. Of course, I would only do this if I had no other option.

Buying some extra high cap magazines probably makes sense, especially if you don't have any or many yet. As for buying extra rifles, just get an extra AR-15 stripped lower for $120. Just a nice insurance policy for minimal expense. Its not like anybody really needs anything better than an AR-15...

For those of you with monitored or censored work internet, you can get cell phones now with inexpensive internet access that is very fast for not much more. This way you can send and receive private e-mail and browse the web. Another option is to use a VPN (encrypted virtual private network)...

High Standard is well respected, but I have a S&W Model 41 and I love it! I also prefer the styling. That said, don't get a MKIII whatever you do.

Arg, don't get a Ruger MKIII---especially the 7" barrel, competition "slab sides" model. Here are the problems with all MK IIIs: 1. Sprays hot gun powder residue on your hand 2. Easing the slide forward can pinch your fingers (General Ruger design issue) 3. Stupid loaded chamber indicator...

Mags will be worthless/priceless after the new AWB. It will be like CA's AWB. It will not permit the transfer of high capacity mags.

Why don't you just move out of the house and buy all of the guns you want? Your parents know nothing about guns, and chances are you will not be able to change their minds. It is a religion like any other. I suggest you disprove their crackpot theories by moving out, being a gun owner, and...
