    Hokus Pokus

    Is it a part of your self-defense plans? I believe there is a great advantage to using the element of surprise and I often incorporate it into my self-defense training at the range. Found some good reading tonight. It is written about sword play but it doesn't take much imagination to realize...

    About the finger thing

    Here's something I've always wondered about... Why do some people hold their trigger finger straight, outside the trigger guard? That's is really odd looking to me. Were they trained to do that? Is it because they have short fingers and can't reach the front of the front of the trigger...

    Benjamin Marauder

    Just got and shot my first ever air rifle. It is a 22 caliber PCP (pre-charged pneumatic) which holds up to 3000psi and can supposedly attain velocities of 1000fps using either CO2 or compressed air (scuba tank). The gun has a barrel shroud and is so quiet the pellet hitting the target makes...

    Remington 1100 malfunction

    Click, click, click... Three shells ejected.. Not a one of them had a dent in the primer. What's up with that? Firing pin gone? I just got the gun from my dad, first time I tried to fire it. Never owned an 1100 before. Looks like I am going to be doing some disassembly sooner than later...

    Kriss V [Range Report]

    Thought I'd share... Bought this a few weeks ago. 45acp, 16" barrel, folding stock, "recoiless". Haven't had the time to shoot this yet, planning on next week, but I did shoot the rental gun at the store before making this purchase. The rental was the exact same model, only difference...

    Conspiracy Theory Study

    http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/01/070116093354.htm An English study. Check out the last paragraph. They come close to insinuating that pro-gun arguments are a conspiracy theory since it's influence is beyond one's ability to resist. Nice try but as far as I am aware...

    Local Death

    Here's proof that good shot placement placement makes the 22 caliber "enough gun". The 19 year old marksman had also reportedly been drinking alcohol. The GF said he did ths to scare her. I bet he succeeded real good! He was mistaken about the safeties though. Every gun (even Glock) has...

    New Anti-Corrosion Coating ?

    http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/06/060616130207.htm It's a bio-film (bacteria). Sounds interesting for long term storage of firearms. Wonder how well it would work against fingerprints? Cleaning solvents would probably kill it off requiring repeated applications (or get it drunk?)...

    I can only have one gun

    Until I get my darn gun locker fixed. The key quit working on me and I am limited to my carry piece. Not being able to get to my long guns is the pits! Did a little research and found out that the end on these circular tumbler keys are a load bearing surface. They are said to be tougher...

    Scare Tactics for Dogs

    Put 8 pennies into a popcan and duct tape the top to keep them in there. Don't ask me why but dogs fear this thing when it's rattled on some deep down primitve and instinctual level. I keep a couple spread around the house myself. Set one of those cans on the sofa and the dog won't go...

    Talk about a heart attack!

    As the snow melts on my roof these huge chunks of ice build up along the rim. They keep breaking of and falling onto lower sections over my doorways. Everytime it happens I go into code red because it sounds like somebody just kicked in my door! :what: This isn't fun.
