Here's the deal: there was this guy at work whose armatures were wound too tight. A couple of months ago, he sent some vaguely threatening emails to everybody in the support department. Those were forwarded to the boss & nothing much happened. Well, he got fired this past Friday. I'd never...

There's this guy at work. He's in his mid-20's, city kid. He was raving about joining the FBI earlier this year and spends a lot of time playing the shoot-em-up computer games. On Monday, I went out at lunch and bought a LEO-only marked magazine. Why? Just because I could. Anyhow, I wandered...

I know of Rifle, CO & Winchester, KS. What else?

I finally got around to taking my 1943 91/30 apart for cleaning. After looking closely at the stock, I found stamped symbols all over it. A small "k" in at least three places, the Cyrillic character that looks like a backwards "R" a couple of times, and a square with a diagonal line. Do these...
