    pistol caliber vs. 223/556 in a 7" barrel

    If you found yourself in a need/want for an AR pistol in the 7" barrel variety, what caliber would you get? at a 7" barrel, is a 223 not as useful as say a 9mm or .45? does the .223/556 loose enough benefits so that its on par with a pistol caliber with a huge increase in noise? what...

    piston bolt system.....an idea.

    the circular gas system on another thread got me thinking about an idea... Could you theoretically get rid of all springs in a gun? the drawing does not show where the hammer that activates the firing pin. That is located in between the arm. it does not show a slight off center on the...

    Arguing the nuclear strawman

    When arguing the some anti-gun people, the straw-man question of "should a private citizen be able to own nuclear weapons" sometimes comes up. Now I know this is a straw-man but it got me thinking. What are the laws on owning highly destructive devices like thermonuclear weapons or the like?(not...

    Lever action 7.62x54r?

    Is there such a thing? I thought about it because: 1. uses a relatively cheap rimmed cartridge(3rd cheapest center-fire out there) 2. has some power behind it 3. and most of all, sounds kinda cool:neener:. oh, and if they don't, how hard would it be to convert a 45-70 into one?

    a ripple in time and gun history

    I was thinking about what would happen if a gun or caliber was invented/adapted out of order. for example what would happen if the united states somehow adopted the 7.62x39 or 6.8spc instead of the .30 carbine for use in the m1 carbine during WW2. Would russia adapt the .223/556 in the AK...

    building a .308 style AR-10

    forgive me posting everywhere but I seem to have a lot of questions. I know I can/could build a AR-15 for about $500/$600 and that seems alot cheaper than in-store pricing. So if I built a .308 AR, would would it be cost saving for me to build it myself? Now I know about the problems of...

    defending yourself indoors without hearing loss

    forgive me if this thread seems like i'm overthinking this. I've been thinking latley about what caliber would be a good defense caliber, and it occured to me; the larger the caliber, the louder the bang and the greater chance of me damaging my hearing. Hearing protection seems impractical...
