I've been wondering exactly how accurate the reporting from Iraq is, and I think I finally found an answer from a source I can believe. The following is an excerpt from an independent site for military members both active and non-active. I think this says a lot about the MSM and how they are...

I just finished reading an article about handgun grip technique and I really would like to get an idea of what others are doing in this regard. Apparently there have been a number of different philosophies here from "firm handshake pressure" to "firm enough to cause slight tremors". As for...

I came across this on another board (sigforum). Normally I don't cross-post, but this is truly interesting info that needs wide dissemination IMO. This information comes from documents and info captured from the site where al-Zarqawi was killed. Like many, I have been guilty of...

I had an incident with the local police last night and although I generally think they handled things pretty well, there were a couple of things that are still bothering me about it. First, the call was initiated due to a verbal confrontation I had with a bus driver who had blocked access...

I get so tired, as I'm sure many of you do, about various gun myths from gun store clerks and firearms instructors. How about we start a thread here busting some of the more common gun myths? I'll start: MYTH: Don't keep your magazines loaded as it will weaken the springs and cause...

Having followed the numerous stories regarding abuse of position and authority by LEO's as well as a somewhat callous disregard in the Presidency for protecting the BOR for law-abiding citizen's, I'm beginning to wonder if there is a fundamental flaw in the way our government is set up for...

Granted, I'm not like most folks here as I haven't owned guns my whole life. I'm a recent newcomer. But I do wonder if we as gun owners don't do ourselves and our sport a disservice by accentuating self-defense as the prime motivator for owning guns. I'm an average, normal guy who got...

An interesting thing happened to me this morning. I found out that one of my son's friends from when he was younger got arrested over the weekend for aggravated battery. For those not aware of it, aggravated battery differs from aggravated assault in that the weapon was actually USED on...

I have a pretty decent collection of guns at this point including several handguns and some AR-15 variants. I've begun to notice that it appears a significant number of gun owners have shotguns. Since I'm not a hunter and typically fire at an indoor range which only allows slugs, would there...

I've got several autoloaders but I've recently started to get interested in getting a cowboy action SAA as well as potentially a lever action rifle, but I really don't know my way around that area too well. Is there some kind of FAQ somewhere that goes into depth about the different...

After reading a number of posts regarding problems with the Sigarms GSR, I decided over the weekend to go ahead and take the chance on one. For clarification purposes, this was the GSR Revolution model without the rail, so it really wasn't that much of a chance. First off, let me explain...

I'm relatively new to shooting and I have two Glocks. I'm really intrigued by what I've read about the PX4, but I'm concerned about the DA/SA design. I really like the idea of a consistent trigger pull first shot to last. I'm sure otheres here have gone through this dilemna. I'm interested...

It seems the new controversial "no-retreat" law that went into effect in Florida last month has seen it's first test and passed with flying colors. Evidently this poor guy, who has some mental problems, who was being harassed and teased by his neighbors, had been complaining to the police who...
