Pushing on the muzzle to disassemble is a bigger turn-off for me than pulling the trigger. That just gave me some serious heeby jeebies. But it is an interesting design in spite of my experience-based (but not scientifically informed) aversion to blowback actions. Great work! I don't mean to...

Heh, sarcasm much Varminterror? I'm not sure which makes less sense, policy strategy from teenagers or from celebrities.

One day on my way home from work, I heard 2 guests and one reporter on NPR talking about requiring or forcing teachers to carry guns. That's the straw man that frequently comes up, even though I've never seen any suggestion of it on the policy side. There are 4 states that allow teachers to...

I have 2 5.56 ARs built from PSA parts. Nearly a thousand rounds through each. The only problem so far is one cheap Tula steel casing wouldn't eject. Both my PSA barrels are FN-manufactured, and I blame the ammo for the one malfunction. I did buy one of their early 9mm AR pistols and had...

What you're describing isn't "bargain" to me, but just "cheap crap." If your Convoy lights are like those, they are fakes. Convoy does sell branded hosts, and unscrupulous manufacturers will put garbage drivers and emitters in them. But the 2 sellers I linked are reputable, and only sell the...

Good link, thanks. I almost laughed at the old Maglite in the Ayoob and Chapman holds. The '80's called and they want their dim, beastly flashlight back.

The reason I started buying pistol lights was a local-ish range has mini-IDPA "Fun Shoots" twice a month. A couple of times a year, they turn off the lights. It really sucked trying to hold a light and shoot. It also made the required reloads a LOT trickier. My wife requested a light for her...

I do have some Duracells stockpiled, since the claimed 10-year shelf life is pretty attractive for disasters. But the lights I have for them will also run on 14500's, so I don't have to deal with alkalines until the next disaster AND my lithiums go dead. Love that Fenix, but that's way over my...

That's a nice light. I know a few people who have it and are happy with it. Personally, I can't stand alkaleaks any more. I've also gotten really tired of the low capacity of NiMH rechargables. Realistically, 28 lumens from your Streamlight is enough light most of the time. But when I want...

Their are lots of cheap, crappy flashlights available from China. But there are also some high quality units from reputable manufacturers at amazing prices. In my opinion, the Convoy flashlights, especially the S2+, are in the latter category. I'm completely unqualified to comment on the...

It's even worse here. We're what the MSM would call the gun community (some here might even qualify as experts). So when things like this show up here, the spin in the statist media is that "even experts within the gun community oppose this legislation." And they're technically not lying...

Uh, maybe you should actually read the statute:

On the ballistics, this is the best I've seen: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/tech/cold-case-jfk.html Especially the part where they get access to some previously sealed medical information. The fracture pattern of the skull clearly indicates the bullet came from the direction of the book...

I've done my own gel tests for one of my son's science fair projects. There is a HUGE difference in reliable expansion between the least expensive JHPs I've bought (Fiocchi) and the second least expensive (Federal HST). I carry the HST in 124g, beause it's inexpensive, outperforms much more...

Utah: If you like outdoorsy stuff, you might like Utah. Lots of great mountain biking and skiing, just to name a couple. Lots of hunters (but not me). I grew up in NW GA, and moved here to go to college in the 80's, and stayed. Lots of great jobs, especially in IT/computer fields, but not...

I've done it in .30-06, .22-250, and 8mm Mauser. The POI was a little off, but they were very accurate at 50 yards, and fun, quiet plinking ammo.

I can't decide between this one: https://munchkinwrangler.wordpress.com/2007/03/23/why-the-gun-is-civilization/ And this one: http://www.ironwordranch.com

The Stupid Is Strong with Weld Try to listen to this interview with Bill Weld (Johnson's running mate) on guns without losing a few IQ points yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnc_v9ZuEls "The 5-shot rifle, that's a standard military rifle. The problem is if you attach a clip to...

Possibly politically astute First, I voted no. BUT Due process, as has been pointed out repeatedly, is an up-front process. What if NRA-backed legislation required a grand jury to get added to the list? First, it would never pass. If you have a grand jury and the right to face your...

I have one big Harbor Freight knife. It lives in my range bag and it's for slicing my clear ballistics gel. My leatherman blade is just too short. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
