    Why is my AR-15 so loud?

    Ok, I just got an AR-15 in 5.56 with a 18" barrel, and to my surprise it is considerably louder than my VZ58 in the same caliber with a 11.75" barrel, using the same ammo. It sounds louder at a distance, and also up close. I thought it wasn't going to be that loud because of the barrel length...

    Hey, well I am 14 years old and I'm looking to get a first handgun. I already have experience with handguns, both Autoloaders and Revolvers, in many calibers, but I still don't have one of my own. I was looking for Auto's in 9x19 and Revolvers in .357/.38 special.

    Shooting .44 spl in .44 magnum

    Ok, I know it is safe, but a friend says that shooting shorter cartidges than what the gun was designed for (we were talking about .44 spl in .44 mag) would increase erosion of the forcing cone, chamber etc. I DON'T agree with this. But what do you guys think?

    Norinco 1911's. Are they junk?

    There are plenty of these Norinco 1911's here in Uruguay, but are they any good? I'm interested in the 9x19 mm one because for .45 ACP you need another permit.

    Maybe some of you remember a thread I started some time about a VZ58, and I had to decide between three barrel lenghts 7.5", 12" and 16".

    Recoil question

    Hi, I'm looking for a rifle caliber with recoil comparable to that of 12 gauge 2 3/4 inch loads. My dad never tried my 12 gauge shotgun. He says it's because he doesn't like shotguns, he likes rifles. I think he's just scared of the recoil :rolleyes: . So I want to see if he will shoot a rifle...

    Can you get concussion from a 12 gauge?

    Just shot a few 12 gauge shells and the headache worsens with every shot. No ear protection, but it's a 28" barrel so it's not loud. Anyone experienced this?
