I have been thinking of getting my concealed carry permit since we need permission from our own goverment to carry firearms. My question is this: how long is a concealed carry permit good for? I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but I live in the state of Missouri. Thanks

Is there a way to get rid of the annoying "ping" sound that the M1 Garand makes whenever it fires the last shot and the clip is ejected? Has anyone ever made such a modification or know of someone who has? If so how did they do it?

I was watching this brief video on the Steyr AUG and a guy in it said that the Australian military adopted this rifle because ".....they have a very strong tradition of being a rifleman's culture". Never heard that before. I also recently read that the Swiss also have a very strong tradition...

What was the last war that Switzerland fought in? Anybody know? What was their main battle rifle in that war? They did not participate in WWI or WWII... nor any war since then (that I'm aware of), as they always declare themselves "neutral" whenever conflict breaks out. How do they get away...

I have recently become interested in comparing the WWI and WWII main battle rifles to each other trying to figure out which is the most accurate. It seems to me after doing initial research that the Springfield seems to be the most accurate against the Mauser, Lee Enfield, Arisaka, Mosin Nagant...

Wow, thanks for all the excellent ideas, maybe someone would be kind enough to set up a poll for this thread.

After reading more about the Galil, it seems to be nothing more than an improved version of the AK-47. Since the AK-47 is such a well-known and high profile assault rifle, then why isn't more said about the Galil since it is an *improved* version?

I'm looking for the very finest rifle scope that money can buy. Who makes some of the very best in the world? Price is no object and money is no object...

What are the "insurgents" using in Iraq as their main battle rifle these days? I have to ask because video of "insurgents" using their main battle rifle never get shown on TV! Only video of our troops using their M16's get shown on TV, so I have no idea what the insurgents are using these days!

So Israel used the FN FAL before they switched over to the Galil, correct? What did they use before the FN FAL?

Can the Israel-made ones be bought here in the U.S. in 7.62x51 NATO?

What is everyone's opinion of the IMI Galil in 7.62x51mm NATO? What are it's pro's and con's? Can it be made to use .308 Winchester cartridges?

Does anyone make or has anyone made an AR-15/M-16 patterned rifle or a Bullpup rifle in .30-06?

Please rank the following rifle cartridges from most powerful to weakest (put the most powerful at the top of your list and the weakest at the bottom). There are 20 rifle cartridges in this list: .223 Remington .308 Winchester .30-06 Springfield .22-250 Remington .243 Winchester .270...
