Depends. When I am shooting groups on paper for testing a load I run the bolt slow and smooth, especially if I am using sandbags or other supports for groups. If I am shooting freehand for hunting or time, I will run the bolt faster.
Corrected that for you. But yes. Hot and/or elevation drastically effect combat effectiveness and weight allotments. This is why at certain elevations, plate carrier armor is used instead of IOTV or IBA armor. It is only 6 or 7 pounds lighter. But walking on those mountains, you can feel the...
Its even funnier when they carry weapons unloaded. Last time I went into this unusual gun store in Hoover I noticed the owner carrying a modified Glock. Took a look at the spare magazines and they were empty. Noticed the same thing on any employee that was carrying a revolver.
Lets make it a "Hearts, Minds, and Ears" campaign where we airdrop earplugs with airline style diagrams on how to use them.
I actually didn't lose my hearing overseas. I lost the most of it at the qualifying range before going overseas. That is what happens when your NBC mask pops out your left...
The beauty of the .327Mag is you can fire almost any .32 round if the sound/flash/recoil of the .327 is an issue. .32 S&W Long and .32 H&R Mag are good alternatives to shooting the full power .327. Although I never had much issue shooting 85gr soft point rounds with sound using standard ear...
I'm on the LCR bandwagon. I have handled many revolvers looking to add one to my exclusive semi-auto collection and the LCR has been the smoothest and probably the lightest DA trigger pull on a revolver I have felt on a new firearm. I think the only factory trigger that was lighter was the...
Smith and Wesson M&P for 35 bucks. I am on my 4th one after losing 2 and the third having too much wear and tear to be useful. Great little knife for daily use that doesn't break the bank.

Senate Democrats released a "Guide to Guns." While most of the termonology that causes us to have issue such as using clips and magazines interchangably have been "corrected" they still harp on their favorite one in semi-automatic characteristics:
Full guide here...
The biggest Achilles heal in this discussion is logistics. The military by and large would rather have a one sized fits all solution as far as weapons. For example, a SDM (Squad Designated Marksman) is a shooter who has gone through extra training to farther than the standard 300 meters. The M16...
Nope. I sometimes I think I have dyslexia trying to remember a load I tried or use with how many grains of powder I use. I keep a notebook of all loads I have checked in a particular rifle. Their bullet, powder and mass, COAL and mass, primer, brass, and trim length. When fired I measure the...
Not always. I worked up a load for my .35Rem that is very accurate, roughly half inch groups at 100. I haven't chronoed the loads but they are probably in the ball park of 1900-2000 FPS. Which is considered a rather slow speed for that caliber/powder/bullet mix.
I can't think of any factory 870 that comes with a pistol grip like the Moss do. I put a Blackhawk stock on mine that doesn't have the advanced recoil absorbing springs so it didn't hurt the wallet much. Still handles recoil very well...
This is the website that tells what year a Marlin was produced. Any Marlins produced after December 2007 were under Remington.

Nothing wrong tactically. You avoided the weakest area of your home (doors and windows) while CONSCIOUSLY keeping in mind the risk of stray rounds. You didn't run outside which could have made you the person of interest for the police car coming down the road. You were prepared with a fine...
One of my LGS is a little off the beaten path so they started posting what they have on their Facebook page. Private Facebook with everyone being previous customers. The other day they advertised that they had 10/22 and Mossberg 500 back in stock for 279 and 400 respectively and 12 of each. Only...
That is why I put "arsenal" in quotes. Anytime I read a news store about police finding weapons in a house, anymore than 3 is often considered an "arsenal."
I am in a similar situation with having to move to another town in the next 3 months or so and would have issue moving my 600 pound RSC. So I did some looking around and found a RSC that you build in parts, might be something to fit your needs
