    POTUS: "by a fully automatic weapon in that case, sadly."

    http://m.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2013/04/04/remarks-president-dccc-event-san-francisco-ca Does President Obama really believe this, or is he intentionally telling a mistruth to pander to his base out in San Francisco?

    What Is This?

    In a friend's stash of gun stuff, I ran across this item. Neither of us know what it is. It looks a bit like a big version of a 1911 sear, but obviously it isn't. Only markings are what appears to be "ACE" on one side and "3" on the other. It was amongst reloading equipment, so it may be...

    User NoAlibi: What Happened With Your Airplane Project?

    About a year ago, THR'r @NoAlibi posted a thread about mounting a machine gun on his homebuilt airplane. For whatever reason, I cannot PM him, nor post to the old thread, to find out what happened with this project. Any updates?? http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=622251

    RCBS Dies and Lee Classic Turret

    Just moved up to the Lee Classic Turret...only to find that the turret holes are too closely spaced for the size of the lock rings on my RCBS die sets. Bummer. I was initially tempted to purchase Lee lock rings to install on the dies, but they look a little flaky with the rubber o-rings...

    What Kind Of Sight Is This?

    This was in a box of stuff picked up from an estate -- appears to be a rear sight from something. It doesn't have any markings other than the increments on the aft left side of the leaf. Can anyone identify what it is or what it's from?

    Help to ID Old H-Press

    A year or two ago I acquired an old H-Press that I cannot identify, and was hoping a THR'er might know what it is. The previous owner thought that it had been built from a kit or plans, and it seems to have an aluminum base and side braces. The dies are currently .45 ACP, but I'm hoping that...

    Wood/synthetic full size stock for AR-7?

    My Google-fu hasn't yielded any leads, so hopefully the THR community might know something. I'm looking for a replacement stock -- some kind of "full size" stock in the style of an M1 Carbine -- for an AR-7. Google reveals that such a beast was produced by an unknown manufacturer many years...

    Advice on how to display spent ammo

    THRers - This summer I was deployed to Afghanistan, and had the opportunity to strafe Al Qaeda and Taliban troops who were engaged against friendly forces. It was a very memorable experience, as one of the most satisfying experiences I've had in my life (being able to make a difference...

    Hard Chromed Star BM 9mm (warning: photos)

    Back in March I picked up two Star BM 9mm pistols from Military Gun Supply. I was impressed by reports about them I'd read on the 'net coupled with the very attactive price. I picked up two for about $160 each, and here's what I got (a photo I've posted a couple times before on THR)...

    "Westchester Cops Lock Up Gun Nut"

    What exactly was this guy's crime? Obviously he is a complete idiot for shooting in his house (not trying at all to defend him), but the article makes it sound like his crime was owning a lot of firearms! Seems to me that there might have been some NFA guns in there he wasn't licensed to...

    AR-7 part / help needed

    I have an old Armalite AR-7 that I fished out of my father's attic...it hasn't been cleaned in years. I started to detail strip the reciever/trigger group, and forgot to take photos of what I was doing along the way...so I currently have a pile of parts. Anyone have any on-line help that I...

    Polish SKS bolt carrier face?

    I recently purchased a Yugo 59/66 SKS. After doing the standard milsurp breakdown, de-cosmo, stock refinish, lube and reassemble...I noticed something I hadn't previously seen while closing the bolt. The bolt carrier, when closed by the force of the spring, would sometimes hang up about 1/3"...

    Joined the SKS club yesterday...

    I just purchased a Yugo M59/66 SKS yesterday. I'm usually only into US battle rifles (have a Garand, M1903, 1917, and an AR-7), but the price over at AIM Surplus for the SKS was just too good for me to pass up. I've been pretty snobbish over the years about the SKS, mostly because my only...

    S&W M10, looking for info from any 'experts'

    Hi all - I'm typically an automatic type of guy, but I want to take the plunge into the revolver world. Unfortunately, I don't know much about specific values and desirability of different models. I'm looking at a Pawn Shop gun right now, an ex-LEO S&W Model 10, blue, 4" heavy barrel. SN...
