    AR question

    I have shot quite a few that do that. My current issues do not, nor do the ones at home. Nothing to worry about unless it is a pet peave.

    Holowpoints & Softpoints in Combat

    Our current standard issue body armor to the average soldier will not stop 7.62x39mm ammo nor 5.56 regardless of projectile launched. The highest available for standard issue for vest and helmet are level 3a, pistol/shotgun class protection. A lot of guys are wearing 1a and 2a with a trauma...

    In Vietnam Ak or M16

    The OP states in Vietnam. That means the M16A1 vs AK. The M16a1 as issued in Vietnam was a piece of trash. Over 45 years later they have most of the bugs worked out. Still not a champ in sand though. A few months back was a story of a camp over run in Afghanistan. Some of our guys died with...

    Hate to be a basher, but it sounds like they needed two more rounds.

    Least useful modern caliber?

    41 action express. You can still find the barrels everywhere for the uzi but no ammo in sight. I will have to say even though I never owned one. a 41 cal on a 9mm case is much brighter than a 25 acp. 5mm rimfire. They reintroduce the round, yet no one decides to make a new firearm for it.

    Hidey Holes for guns

    The cheap safes bolted to the wall studs seam to work well for a lot of folks. Not being coy at all, it's just that you don't necessarily need to be thinking of dropping 2 grand on a safe right away. A cheap safe is better than none at all.

    Carry where not allowed by accident?

    Work on a US army base myself. There is no forgetting. Not worth a Federal charge. The funny thing is I have a duty weapon locked up on base and carry open,,,,,,,,,,,,just not allowed to bring one in. Funny world.

    did i take a big hit on this ak..?

    Yep, you burnt yourself. Straight out would have been as high as I would have gone. That would have been if I really wanted it and had another pistol for carry. The Yugos are parts guns just like all the rest on the market today, nothing makes them special. You could have gotten what ever set up...

    Police officer thinks barrel shroud is a suppressor

    The cop did nothing wrong. An open trunk is plain sight. A non locked container in the trunk, especially a gun case is subject to search under probable cause.Standard procedure is exactly what he did. In your presence or not. The probable cause is easy to provide given the circumstances. He...

    Do you bargin with local high priced dealers

    I can not deal with the 3 in my town. Not really worried if they go out. They are usually 3-400 above on EBRs than a store 40 miles away so I go there. I buy enough that they give me deals without asking for them. Occasionally I will buy online if it is a very cheap price or something I can not...

    Time for a new fun gun....what to get/

    Kalashnikov did an interview on the ak. During the process told the reporter that the 5.45 was a mistake. The Russians had to keep up with the Americans. Showed the 5.45 in ballistic gelatin compared to 5.56 and 7.62x39, not that impressive. He told them the 5.56 is a good round and made for...

    Draw your weapon to fire or to scare away?

    Quick draw. please tell more on that story if you don't mind. I think a lot of these folks are a little liberal in their thinking. But this may be attributed to living in an anti gun area, being fearful of prosecution for self defense. Or possibly they over analyze situations. Plain and simple...

    Marvel Mystery Oil?

    I read a report on lubricity for a penetrating oil. ATF and acetone mixed 50-50 beat out every liquid wrench type product. It is quite cheap to make as well.

    Need XD info

    I have carried a glock for 12 years on duty. 10 years was a 21(45). Last 2 years a 23 (40 compact). I personally favor Springfields. I have the compact 4" with extended magazine and grip filler. I carry it with the short 10 rd and no extension in winter. I would carry a subcompact but they don't...

    Most Accurate Handgun in 9mm / .357MAG

    The most accurate 9mm I ever had was a Browning Hi Power. Before I got into 45's I had about 15 9mms over a little time. The hipower could hit milk jugs at 100 yards resting the magazine on the bench. Would hit the jug every time. I could hit sometimes with some of the others but never with any...
