    Neutral/Positive RKBA article in Tucson Daily Star

    http://azstarnet.com/article_03967e0...e84669630.html I hope "Beyond Bread" doesn't panic and post a sign. It is one of my favorites when in Tucson. Some businesses face quandary as the state warms to firearms Eateries wrestling with AZ gun laws Tim Steller Arizona Daily Star |...

    Projection system / laser pistol training

    The college where I teach also has a police academy. Along with all of the police agencies in the county, the academy bought into one of those training systems where scenarios are projected on a screen and the trainee has a Glock 22 with a laser system and has to determine shoot/no shoot...

    M1903 with *factory* polymer stock?

    So, a few weekends ago, my wife and I took our annual pilgrimage to one of those "world's biggest swap meet" kinda places, where vendors come in their RVs from all over the country to sell their wares. She has family near-by, which is why we go every year. Well, many of these vendors also have...

    I wanted to like the Glock, I really did! M&P won.

    I took a bunch of stuff to trade at my favorite gun shop today (where I already had about $200 in trade credit) and ended up with a total of $490. Most of it was ammo for guns I don't have anymore (what fun that it adds up to so much!). He had two things that are on my current wish list - a...

    A couple of questions on HK-USP Magazines

    ...a few months back - the issue of non-existant pre-ban USP45 mags (see http://hkpro.com/hicap.htm). The reason I ask is I am curious if HK started making unmarked 12 round USP45 magazines *after* Sept. 2004, and if so, is there any way to tell them apart from the ones mentioned at HKPro.com...

    Kids and Hearing Protection: Morons at the range AGAIN!

    I managed to get to the range again yesterday (Sunday) There was a couple of 20-something fellas shooting .22s and an AR. They asked what my Mauser in the modern target stock was, and when I told them, they asked "what's a Mauser?" Oh good, I got to do my two favorite things: Shoot and teach...

    Future Weapons on Discovery

    Anybody watch this show? Last night they were demo'ing Dragon Skin Body Armour, and the "Former Navy Seal" host was shooting 7.62X39, .223 and 9MM at the thing showing how even the "big stuff" wouldn't penetrate this body armor. What bugged me the most is that the tone of his voice whenever he...

    Why I can't go shooting today

    ...to go shooting? Unfortunately, no. The local shooting range is in a dry lake bed that isn't so dry right now.:D :D I live in a place where we *see* snow every year (we're at the base of a 10K mountain) but (according to my neighbors) the last time it snowed this much was about 1980. In...

    Anti-gun gun owners

    OK, it's my last weekday before the spring semester begins, so I take advantage of the day to go to the range with my brother's HK91 and M1A. I'm already annoyed with myself because I forgot my optics and I'm shooting three round groups at 100M, and I've walked about a half mile to check...

    SA M1A Disassembly problems

    ...noticed that there appears to be absolutely no gaps between the stock and the metal. I'm wondering if someone might have glass bedded this thing, F**'d up big time, and glued the metal parts into the stock. I'm hoping someone who owns one of these could answer a few questions: Is the fit...

    I need to stop going to the Gun Shop (S&W M&P)

    Dangit. I don't make enough $$$ to keep taking an interest in whatever is under the glass at the gunstore. I held, for the first time, S&Ws M&P .40. I was quite impressed. It felt better in my hand than the XD. THEN the owner showed me the interesting gripo-chango thing that came in S, M...

    Bersa and CCW

    ...is easy to pocket carry, and I have a cheap holster that keeps it from printing and makes drawing from the pocket pretty durn easy. Second, it *is* reliable. I've seen a few people on several forums trash it as unreliable, but I've run about 200 rounds through this thing with no failures...

    Poor training or double mag?

    ETA: Or Bogus Pic (which is how I see it now). Anyone here subscribe to [email protected]? A user sent the following to the list this afternoon: I don't know. What do you guys think? Poor training or just a poor picture of a double mag setup?

    Opinions/Information on Independence brand Ammo

    I have several boxes of Independence brand (Lewiston, ID) 45 230gr FMJ ammo that I brought home from my brother's house after he passed away. I recently loaded some up in his P14-45 LDA (which I had already fired quite a few other brands out of with no problems) and this stuff kept jamming...

    Doom and Gloom, or underestimating the Bradys

    Pardon me for making a "dual post," but I just posted this in another thread and I thought it deserved to be a thread of its own. There have been a lot of threads about how we as gun owners have lost everything. Then there are the replies like "you're all full of Doom and Gloom" and "a lot...

    Yugo M48 Replacement Bolt?

    Anyone know where I can find one without paying tons of $$? The one I have does not need replacing, but I have one of those Advanced Technology stocks that mounts a scope. I have it on an older Mauser with the barrel shot out, and it improved its accuracy enough that I want to put my M48 in it...

    Colt Accurized Rifle

    I notice both their sporting division and their LE division have this listed. Anyone know if there is any difference between the two? The Colt Defense web site says they are two entirely separate companies, which would imply two entirely separate rifles. They look the same to me. :shrug...

    Odd "Failure" with XD45

    I just acquired a used (barely) XD45. Gun shop owner (I know and trust him) told me a prison guard needed $ to pay bills, so sold his off. A believable story in my state. Our prison guards work for peanuts. SO, I take it shooting expecting no failures. I was traveling this weekend, but knew...

    Shooting and fitness

    Back when I was young and physically fit, I got bored with my usual two mile run, so I made it a shooting game. I used to go out to this road out in the middle of the desert. On the end that had a safe backstop and plenty of visibility (so I would know if anyone was coming) I would set up 18...
