    Cleaning a Browning BPS

    Alright, so the manual said that you should take off only the barrel for cleaning (!) and further reading has made it clear that it can be a pain to actually field strip (or do what would be equivalent to field stripping in every other gun). Is there any way to actually clean it without taking...

    Ghost rings for clays?

    I'm looking to get a shotgun (my first) for clays and home defense. For those combined uses, should I get ghost rings or bead sights? There's also the option of getting multiple barrels, but most ghost ring sights I've seen have the rear sight mounted to the receiver, so I don't know if...

    PA - AR-15s are now pistols, apparently?

    I don't have a source, but I've heard from multiple dealers that the State Police are now requiring a white pistol form be filled out for every AR-15 lower receiver and even complete AR-15 rifles. This would mean that AR-15s (and possibly Sig 556s as well) are considered pistols in Pennsylvania...

    sunglasses as eye protection

    My shooting glasses are clear.. not ideal for really sunny days. I have a pair of Oakley sunglasses. They're ANSI Z87.1 high impact rated, but they are smaller (cover less of my face) than actual shooting glasses. Am I good-to-go with these, or is it a better idea to get actual tinted...

    S&w mp-15

    One of the local gun stores has a few of these in stock for around $1000. Is this a good deal? Also, this would be my first rifle. Any reason that's a bad idea?

    Standard M1A and related/first gun questions

    I've always really liked the look and function of the M1A/M14 and I've decided it's time to actually buy a rifle of my own.. So I have questions! I've heard that there are currently supply/availability issues with the M1A. Can anyone comment on that? Is it related only to specific models? Is...

    Why does Ron Paul (R-TX) have "B"?!

    The NRA gave Rep. Paul a B grade. Why!? Is he too pro-gun for the NRA? :banghead: He is one of the extremely small amount given an A+ by the GOA.

    Odd Note on NRA grades

    http://www.nrapvf.org/elections/State.aspx?State=PA Click on "What the grades mean" (It's not an HTML link, which is why I did not link directly). Obviously, this is true. But why did they include it? Do they not rate Libertarians, but want people to know they are pro-gun anyway? If...

    Self defense shootings - homicide?

    I've heard from a friend that if someone is killed in self defense, it is both considered a homicide, and counted on the list of the number of murders every year. Can anyone verify/discredit this?

    Mini-30 and accuracy?

    Just curious - is the Mini-30 known for having accuracy problems, like the Mini-14?

    Gotta love those magic 9mm rounds...

    I was just watching "The Delta Force", starring Chuck Norris. The Delta Force soldiers had Uzis, and they were silenced. The problem is that they had no silencers. They just sounded silenced. Or, they sounded like Hollywood always makes silencers sound like, so they actually sounded more...

    CCW Permit in PA... Why?

    From what I have gathered, the exact same criteria are required for receiving a permit as owning a handgun - so I fail to see the point of needing a permit to carry in PA. I suppose the .gov just wants the $19 fee, but it's still pointless.

    Assault Weapons Ban Renewal - "between" guns

    For the sake of discussion, lets say the AW ban gets renewed on Sept. 15th. Will this "gap" without any AW ban allow all the firearms made 1994-2004 to become essentially "pre-ban"?

    Iwb?

    Just curious - but how is a IWB firearm actually concealed? It seems people would notice a bump or soemthing like that.

    College and Guns

    For college, I plan on getting a Masters in some form of engineering. The problem is that many of the really good engineering schools are in states like New York and Massachusetts, and I really don't want to deal with the complications that would bring with firearms. So, can anyone...

    AKs and Uzis

    What is with the apparent gun grabber obsesssion with keeping "AKs and Uzis off the streets"? It hardly seems like they care about M16s, Tec-9s, etc... Just AKs and Uzis. Are they the most recognizable to a non-gunner? BTW, this is a serious question. I am curious as to if there is a...

    Criminals have no gun control

    Congressmen and the NRA

    Is there any way to see which congressmen are members of the NRA? I have only been able to find sources that list the organizations they are a leader of, not just members. Also, are there any sources that list the RKBA stances of various celebrities/famous persons?

    Revolutionary War firearms?

    What were some commonly used firearms in the revolution? I already know about the Brown Bess and Pennsylvania/Kentucky rifles, but what were some others? I think this goes here.
