    Want to find AP M955 or similar if useful

    I would like to purchase AP ammo or bullets for 5.56.Anybody test these against lightly armored vehicles? Is the 5.56 too light to be effective in this role? If not, can I just make my own out of hard steel and a jacket on a lathe? In WA state. Thanks.

    New caliber discovered. Need info

    While waiting to ship off my Sig for repair, I happened upon a very unique looking Colt 1911. It looked to be Nickel plated. I looked more closely, and saw under Caliber .38 Super. Then I saw it was a single stack with a 10 Rd capacity. I was intrigued. Oddly, I had never encountered one...

    Tired of polymer but on a budget

    What is a working guy to do? I sold off my Glocks, Ruger LCP, KTs etc due to the financial bust. Now I am back in the market. I started with a mouse gun. I started fondling some 1911s, but lack the cash to do one right at this point. Instead of my usual polymer something or revo, I decided...

    NAA Guardian 32acp

    NAA .32 Guardian I have spent years with many different mouseguns. I like to carry polymer, but always find myself drawn back to steel. After ridding myself of all KTs and my LCP, I was on the hunt. Tried a Couple Bersas, but they just were not small enough. Then one night, I stopped by a tiny...

    Want to start with .54 Hawken BP

    But I cannot find cans of black powder anywhere. Is the Pyrodex as good? Why not get a bunch of ffg Goex? Where? I figure the real stuff is the best. Is that so? Shooter429

    WA State Patrol SWAT gear stolen by criminals

    FYI-very disconcerting: fullly auto M4, flashbags and the usual assortment of goodies plus armor emblazoned with POLICE all over it. a) I have known a few of these guys from county and state. The Staters I knew kept their vehicles and gear locked in a garage, when not on duty and vehicles...

    Heavy metal and the shooting sports

    Metallica rocks, but that is actually not the kind of metal I am interested in. I was watching a forensic science show about a guy who was poisened to death with heavy metals. Then I got to thinking about how I routinely handle Pb, Hg, Cd, Sn, Ni, Cu, Bi etc. in both solid, liquid, and...

    Black Water SOF in Somalia shipping

    With the recent resurgance in piracy in and around Africa, there appears to be a new front for US SOF protecting shipping lanes from pirates. Why not require shipping companies to employ armed U.S. trained operators and escort boats (like the brown water navy of Vietnam) in order to protect...

    Media bias and semantics

    I watched a news report of "more gun violence" at a local mall where "two groups of friends" got into a fight and suddenly gunfire erupted. The shooter was described as a young boy who was with his freind. Of course I knew before they interviewed the participants who and what they all...

    Browning service is great!

    After recently switching to Browning Buckmarks, I has a little misshap. I lost a spring during cleaning. So I went to the local gun shop to buy a new one, and was advised to call Browning and have them fix it. It was my fault, and I was willing to pay. So I called Browning, and the phone was...

    S&W Model 60-14 extensively tested

    I will start with a brief description of the gun. It is a Smith and Wesson Model 60LS in SS, .357 Magnum with wood grips. It has a matte stainless finish that looks classy withought causing glare or reflection. The trigger I would estimate at under 11 LBS and butta smooth. But single action...

    Most fantastic 1911 I ever fondled

    I never would have imagined one could find a nearly-perfect 1911, right out of the box for under 1 grand, much less one that could double as a hunting arm. I am still kinda shocked. I was looking at Cabela's and I spotted this rather strange looking commander-style gun. When I...

    Glock 22 and Blackhawk CQC IDPA legal

    I want to try IDPA, and I have a BH CQC and Uncle Mikes Kydex mag holders for the Glock 22. Is this combination legal? I read the rulebook, but i am still not sure. Also, do I have to buy 10 Rd mags? Or are do they allow the Hi-caps? Do I have to count the rounds in the Hi-cap for an...

    Best semi-auto for home-d and casual games

    I have been shooting doubles and pump guns of various types brands like 870s and 500s for decades and have been just fine with them for both defense and sport. Recently, however, I have noticed I don't enjoy the magnum recoil of BS or slugs like I used to and have also slowed down a bit (and...

    Keep your friends close and your enemies closer!

    With the obvious infiltration and, in some cases, sabotage of "conservative" websites by leftist radicals on many boards that embrace traditional American family values, including RKBA, I think that it is prudent that we do the same for them. We need to learn and expose their ideologies and...

    .32 Magnum and Cor Bon ammo

    Everybody that loves the .32 H&R Magnum, please help me out. I have been using Cor Bon ammunition for years in all my guns and love it, but I have not been able to find any Cor Bon in this wonderful little magnum caliber. I saw the new DPX line, and knew it would be perfect for a hot load in...
