I was trying to think of a clever name. And I succeeded. Kind of.

How are the special grenade blanks different? Could we reload some cartridges to similar specs?

I don't want cheese or wine. I want some support from people who are supposed to be on my side. This is how we lose, we destroy ourselves with in-fighting. There will be no cohesive front if we continue like this. "My state is better than your state", red state vs blue state, "snipers" (high...

How many times have we been over the fact that "move to America or be brainwashed into a red pinko left wing gun grabber msm hollywierd tactikewl commie socialist fascist gang banger" is NOT productive? It makes no sense to abandon the country's most populous state and a huge part of the...

You should use both hands. It's much easier when you're using a finger and a thumb on the hammer with the other hand holding the gun, versus a finger on the trigger and that thumb on the hammer.

Well, most people use their cars for their intended purpose every day. I hope that doesn't happen to your CCW. And getting a backup firearm is a lot cheaper than a backup car.

Y'know, 50 said that he took photos of the rioters - NOT that he burned buildings or whatever.

A real Singer 1911.

Metapotent, I have virtually no experience with live swords other than "oooh, pretty", so I'm gonna have to trust you there. But the thing is, they're testing if you can shoot a lock like they do in the movies and break it. Yes, a shotgun filled with breeching ammo and shooting the lock...

Yes, it would be more efficient to shoot downward. But that's not how it's done in the movies, which is what they're testing here. And I suspect that MP5 is a police department one. They've used MP5's on the show before IIRC, and I believe they stated that they used police department firearms.

Well, no, you forgot both gas and recoil operated semi-auto rifles. Rotating bolt or straight bolt, roller delayed, direct impingement vs gas piston, etc. Plus, with the bolt action there's control feed, push feed, and the occasional straight pull (K31 probably the most notable example) as...

Miami Vice was pretty good. Not as good as Collateral, but heads and shoulders above most action flicks and summer movies. The cinematography was brilliant, as always, and the gunfights are well-done. The plot, though, should have either been cut or had its length blown out to three hours to...

um... totally off topic, but why's the reporter's name partially blanked out?

Y'know, I think we are overlooking a very simple solution to all these physics issues. Let's just send somebody into LEO with a couple guns and find out what happens. I'm sure if we all chip in a million each, why we could certainly get somebody into space within the decade!

Part of the rationale behind banning tracer and incendiary ammo in CA is that it would light up random brushfires in the southern part of the state, if I remember correctly.

Speaking of Extreme Shock(TM) - Box O' Truth recently did a test on their ammo.

Part of the problem is that people use "Muslim" as a synonym for "Arab". They're not the same. One of the most notable Islamic terrorist groups in the world today is Abu Sayyaf, which is comprised mainly of Philippinos. Conversely, Lebanon has something like 40% Christians. While the...

They're British, designed for the SAS, so I'd imagine they'd have nothing at all on the wings. My question is how hot does his boots get when a turbofan is on?

I'm concerned about what will happen in 20 years when I go to the range, and we're worried about China if "beware the swarthy people at the range, they could be terrorists!" is any predictor of future behavior. I'm Chinese American. Emphasis should be on the second part, though some can't get...

Xring, is there any specific reason why you don't trust the Arab world?
