    Failure in Situational awareness

    One doesn't even NEED to speak with the person, but better self defense would mean one isn't even in that poor situation in the first place.

    "Without hand fighting skills, you are just a walking holster"

    His rank doesn't impact whether he's correct. As far as CCW holders go, how well can they draw when someone is in their face or attacking them? Not just for a gun but also for a knife, I find it amusing that so many people think their folding knife is a legit self-defense tool, if you can't...

    "Without hand fighting skills, you are just a walking holster"

    Regarding the Muay Thai instructor's attitude, for anyone that is offended, why? Is it because he's incorrect or because he's quite correct.

    .276 Pedersen and the M1 Garand

    The ammo we had in stock was soon used up in training, so why is it not a good idea to use ammo that allows for a smaller rifle that uses less material and costs less, along with ammo that uses less material as well? That's aside from the fact that soldiers could have more rounds in the gun and...

    Army's Proposed New M855A1 to Use Solid Copper Bullet

    First off, why would there be increased muzzle blast? One can have a bullpup that is the same overall length as a short M4, so the barrel is the same distance away from the shooter's face, the bullpup just allows more barrel length to burn powder, so if anything they should suffer less from...

    Army's Proposed New M855A1 to Use Solid Copper Bullet

    Shawn, From the accounts of soldiers that use bullpups I haven't heard complaints about mag changes, they might complain about reliability, especially in the case of the Brit L85, and the round ejecting right into one's face is an issue, but mag changes aren't. Apparently just practicing the...

    Army's Proposed New M855A1 to Use Solid Copper Bullet

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBbJhv39IUM Shawn, I think those concerns are way overblown, this guy seems to change mags just fine. Also, suppose you are correct in that the bullpup reload is slower, the bullpup is going to send bullets quicker given the same barrel length and will likely...

    Army's Proposed New M855A1 to Use Solid Copper Bullet

    Part of these issues could be alleviated by replacing the M4 with rifle like the Keltec RFB. http://www.kel-tec-cnc.com/rfb.htm It's shorter than the M4 and has a lot more barrel, making the 5.56 ammo more lethal. If you really wanted to increase lethality you'd go the bullpup route and...

    Modern Point Shooting

    Sighted fire is just as fast, and often faster, if scoring solid hits is your goal. Maybe "being sure of your target" is not a priority for everyone, but it is for me. 1) Sorry but this simply is not true, to bring a pistol to eye level from the hip is a greater distance then firing from the...

    Cross-Eyed Dominance: Does it even matter?

    5.56 ballistics from a 24 inch barrel?

    I'm mainly looking to see how much one will gain by going up to a 24 inch barrel from a 20 using common loads. A range buddy claimed to have clocked his standard 62 grainers at 3450fps coming out of his Bushmaster varminter, which seems pretty amazing.
