    Interested in the History of 1990s Gun Control? Go to the Clinton Library Website

    I do believe that HRC was a 'consultant' on the writing of the AWB.

    For Gun Shop Owners, It’s No Longer Hip to Be ‘Square’

    Square has been anti-gun for close to a year now. Try Flint.com.

    Anyone deduct hobby expenses?

    I do but then again I have a company set up to run training and soon will be getting my 01/03 and then adding gun smithing.

    Is 5.56 Penatrator(green tip) not the same as 5.45 steel core?

    And it's an import from Russian factories ban, not the round itself. I wouldn't worry much about the 7.62x39 or 7.62x54R as there are a LOT of spam cans of it already here or outside Russia to not be an issue.

    Pushing the envelope on SBR regulations

    Also, with a build using either a barrel over 11.5" with an A2 rifle buffer tube the overall length will be greater than 26" which is long enough that a vertical forward grip is GTG. This is thanks to the Franklin XO-26; unfortunately there are a LOT of field agents who don't know about that...

Got a used barrel (11.5" with a pinned brake) for trade of three filled PMAGS in November, 2012. Had $0 to spend on a barrel, got VERY lucky with the unmarked...

    What to do when attacked for pro-2nd Amendment views

    "No Confidence" gets many of my votes. The last Liberal I've seen on a ballot was Jon Huntsman and his position on how much interferance folks should endure in their private lives has increased. Most of the RKBA backing Liberals/Lefties I know - myself included - see individual defense as a...

    Gun Instructors - what do you expect?

    As a newly minted instructor for Basic Pistol and CCW, I'm careful to know my limitations. I'm not a lawyer, not a cop and never served in the military but do know where common questions regarding use of force and sceific laws for the states I will be running classes will come in. My goal in...

    trigger pins for AR-15?

    KNS pins are my suggestion as well. Anti-walking pins will not walk. ;)
