    CBS News questioned about Mike Wallace's appearance at Brady fund-raiser

    So if a correspondent wants to do a hit piece they need to do their story BEFORE they come out of the closet. Apparently that's acceptible conduct.

    What is the single most important thing to practice when preparing to shoot IPSC?????

    Mega Ditto Safety. You cant go fast till the gun handling issues become unconscionsely competent. Once that's wired then next most importnt skill is calling your shots.

    M1A accuracy?

    Out of the box my shot 4 to 5 inches with surplus ammo. The rear sight was loose. Tighten that up got me to 3-4...maybe 2-3 with match ammo. The front sight on my gun was very tall and required the rear to be very tall which wasnt as consistent, so I filed the front down so the rear would be...

    Mark Steyn on Islamist radicals - good read

    Bottom line is Islam has not adopted a doctrine that allows it coexist with the rest of the secular and religeous world. This is a change (their religeon) or kill them deal....most of the world hasent figured that out yet.

    Applying for my CCW

    It wouldent hurt to provide a second good cause. Somthing that would cover you when you're not working. Its not unheard of for a permit to be issued that says "valid only while enguaged in [insert your good cause here]". If you could add something like "Additionally I (shoot competetively and...

    Springfield M1A - What needs replaced in them?

    My Scout model has a couple thousand rounds through it. As it came the rear sight was loose and way to high (20 something clicks). I peened and polished the sight base to tighten up the loop, and I filed the front sight to bring the clicks down to a more stable height. During a match the...

    Your Advice: New Orleans Shotgun

    I think I'd just go buy a new riot SG set up how you want it with a marine finish.

    Mossberg 500/590 comparison

    Handle both... you'll find that the A1 has the "brick excrement house" feel that is lacking in the lower end models. If that rock solid feel appeals to you, buy it.

    Another "compassionate" liberal Democrat. Aren't they lovely?

    Make no mistake....the belief system of the far left liberals is a seed that has the potential to grow into the Brown Shirts of tomorow.

    M1A - Gas Pistol Corrosion/Erosion Question

    This gun ejected its bolt parts a couple months ago at a match. I practically begged the Springfield rep to let me just send the bolt back for a rebuild, then I begged him to just send me the parts and I'd rebuild myself. "Nope" he said, they need the whole rifle back on all repairs so the...

    M1A - Gas Pistol Corrosion/Erosion Question

    The problem w/ springfield life time warranty is that they want the entire gun back....literally, lock stock and barell. That means you get to go by a hard case, a box to go over that, spend a bunch of time packing it up, risk loosing it to a dirty UPS employee, wait who know's how long for...
