    This is NOT satire

    This guy has it all thought through. "The only way we can truly be safe and prevent further gun violence is to ban civilian ownership of all guns. That means everything. No pistols, no revolvers, no semiautomatic or automatic rifles. No bolt action. No breaking actions or falling blocks...

    I am a Democrat for RKBA

    I completely agree with the OP (except for the part about background checks. We don't need more laws). While gun-rights are a serious issue, it is hard to vote for someone who you disagree with on every other issue. There are a hell of a lot more liberal gun owners than you guys realize. It...

    Show everyone this simple guide on "assault weapons"

    Here is a very easy to follow guide on what assault weapons are and why it is silly to ban them. I'm sure most people here know this stuff, but it is a good thing to share on facebook or with your friends that are uneducated about firearms. http://www.assaultweapon.info/

    Did I sufficiently 'neuter' my preban 30 round AK mag?

    If everyone gave up as easily as you, we would have no chance. This is not England.

    How to close one eye?

    I shoot with both eyes open. Probably pretty tough to do if you're trying to shoot with your non-dominant eye though.

    Looking for a new barrel for a VZ-24 Mauser

    I do shoot corrosive ammo out of it, along with all my other surplus rifles, and I have always cleaned them afterward. When I first looked at the Mauser after it had been left out, the bore was completely rust-colored inside. I assume the bore rusted because it was not protected, and the rest...

    Looking for a new barrel for a VZ-24 Mauser

    Thanks for the link NCsmitty. The bore rusted because it was left out in the weather, not from corrosive ammo. I had to put a taller front sight on this rifle to be able to sight it in at 100yds, so I can use that on a replacement barrel. Arbor

    Looking for a new barrel for a VZ-24 Mauser

    Hi, I have a very nice VZ-24 8mm Mauser (Czech) that I bought from AIM a couple years ago. It was my most accurate rifle. I was amazed at how well I could shoot it. Then I lent it to my grandfather so he could hunt with it. He left it on a gunrack on a side-by-side ATV for a couple months...

    For those that carry a flashlight everywhere...

    Fenix LD01. 1 AAA battery (rechargable eneloop), 3 twisty modes (IIRC med 27lumens, low 9 lumens, and high 81 lumens). Completly waterproof; I had mine underwater, wth it on much of the time, for 6 hours and no water came in whatsoever. I got mine for $35 on amazon. I'm very happy with this...

    Elk hunting in Oregon

    I am getting tags for the Oregon Cascade and coast bull elk seasons this year. I've never hunted elk before. Does anyone have any good input as far as where to go? Most of what I've read is just getting away from the roads is the most important thing. I am in good shape and am willing to walk...

    "Assault weapons"

    She has many other videos on gun control, some of which have ratings enabled. Good news: there's about 100 times more thumbs downs than thumbs ups.

    Experiences with Ruger 1022?

    With a little polishing and Volquartsen extractor, they are EXCELLENT guns. I love mine and it is very very reliable and fairly accurate.

    Copper-colored primers

    Remember that if you don't seat your primers deep enough, that can cause failure to fire as well. But if they were struck nicely that was probably not the case.
