This is a propaganda video of what appears to be Iraqis building scoped rifles for sniping purposes. An AK is given a bullpup modification, probably for shooting from vehicles. A scoped supressed bolt gun is test fired. Finally a scene from their supressor making factory where they show off...

I was just thinking, that this would be a great idea for an outdoors pistol. You'd get greater range and penetration than any existing revolver. Plus the ammo is cheap. The other thing is the cylinder length would be identical to 5.56 and the 6.8SPC, (6.5 Grendel should they become...

Where can I find some information on this pistol? The Beretta USA site has a picture of it but nothing else. Edited: Ah never mind, Beretta calls this the 92-SD on its website, everyone else calls it 92G-SD. No wonder I couldn't find anything. Their website still sucks.

The surplus ammo is so cheap it would be cool to have more bolt guns to shoot it with. In particular are there newly made guns chambered in this cartridge?

Watch this video, what options did the victim have in this situation? Crazy Gangbanger Attacks Motorist

It seems to me 9mm wheelguns ought to be more popular than it is. The 9mm Parabelum is the world's most common pistol cartridge and a backup revolver to fire the same ammunition goes together like gin and tonic. Why is it then that Taurus is the only manufacturer to realize this and no American...

This was taken today from NYC. Anyone know what caliber they are chambered for?

Okay my idea is to shoot a good size bullet out of a blowback gun like the SIG-P230. Blowback pistols are reliable, accurate, and compact. The only problem is none of them are chambered in anything bigger than a 36 caliber. A 10mm short should be based on a 10mm auto or 40 S&W case shortened...

Okay you got two 45acp rail guns at comparable prices. Which would be your pick as a homedef, ccw (not necessarily edc) pistol?

I'm curious, how do lefties deal with revolvers? I'm right handed myself and am left eye dominant. I've been advised to shoot left handed. This works fine with some ambidextrous autos, but revolvers seem problematic.

A friend asked this question and I couldn't answer him. Why DID police departments issue revolvers instead of the standard military service pistol? The only thing I could say was revolvers were easier to use. But surely the average GI was no smarter than the average copper.

I am thinking about the recoilless antitank rifles and I'm thinking why not recoiless revolvers. The way the rifles worked was they they perforated the case with tiny holes that allowed a portion of expanding gases to blowout the back and counteracted recoil. I think this can be done with...

This item seems quite popular with collectors. What's so special about this type? It is a rather dead end design no?

Oven Gets Hot, Woman Gets Shot Mon Mar 29, 2004 SAN ANTONIO (Reuters) - A Texas woman heating fish sticks was shot in the leg by a gun that had been stashed in her oven, police said. Roxanne Perez, 29, was taken to a local hospital where she was in good condition, police said...

Cousins, Age 70 and 85, Die in Pistol Duel Thu Mar 11, 2004 MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Two Mexican peasant farmers, cousins age 70 and 85, argued for years over water rights and finally faced off in an old-fashioned pistol duel that killed both, a judicial official said Wednesday...

My eyes aren't so good. This is a still from the movie "Broken Arrow". Looks like a S&W Mountain Gun, is that right?

I'm interested in a Ruger SA 45colt/45acp convertible. Problem is I really like their Stainless blackhawk with the unflueted roll-stamped 45colt cylinder, but that model does not come with a 45acp cylinder. So could I just get a Vaquero 45acp cylinder from the aftermarket and install it, or...

The 625 being so well received, why not have a revolver that shoots the 45 Win Mag? It would still shoot 45acp, but now has serious backwoods potential. This gun would be very flexible, 45acp for competition/bedside, Magnum for outdoors. For the smiths, could this be made from boreing out 629...

What if the famous British breech loader was available 20 years earlier and the British gave manufacturing rights to the Confederates, would it have changed the outcome of the war, or was it not a decisive advantage?
