Update to a long-term experiment on Polymer deterioration started back in 2015 in this thread: https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/protecting-polymer-ar-magazines-from-sun.783489/#post-9954725 Updated further in the same thread and then in 2017 Here...

I've been running a long-term experiment on UV exposure of polymer rifle furniture. It started in this now closed thread back in 2015: https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/protecting-polymer-ar-magazines-from-sun.783489/ Here's the latest: The graying isn't sun damage it is just...

...And weakly plea for the ATF to "do something." http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/08/us/politics/obamas-lofty-plans-on-gun-violence-amount-to-little-action.html?_r=0 “This is a very modest plan,” said Joe Vince, a former administrator at the A.T.F. who now teaches criminal justice. “I don’t...

Obama signs law allowing sale of surplus guns? Am I on crazy pills? http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2015/11/foghorn/breaking-obamau-s-army-1911s/

I seem to recall there used to be a huge thread full of awesome revolver pics in this forum. I've done searches but I can't find anything. Am I having a false memory, or does anyone else remember it too? Better, does anyone have link?

I just inherited this Ruger Security Six. It is a 150xxxxxx serial number that has been carried a lot but shot very little. Lots of wear and the frame is turning a nice plum color. Trigger pull is amazing. I'm not a fan of the aftermarket grips, the bare frame seems to fit my hand better so...

I just built this .458 SOCOM and I test fired it for the first time yesterday with reloads created in the field. My 7 year-old son is manning the video:

...Of Kieran Klein Hammer Down Forge Knives. They are both beautiful and of superior craftsmanship. I haven't put them through their paces yet, and the one with walnut scales may end-up just being a showpiece. The one with the bolster I've named "Strata" because of the many layers, and...

I love bolsters on knives, but I'm seeing fewer and fewer makers offering them. Are they falling out of favor? Are they hard to make? Is there something wrong with bolsters?

President Obama Believes in the Second Amendment. He Also Believes in Common Sense. Thank you for your petition. President Obama strongly believes that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to bear arms. That's never been in question. But the right guaranteed by the Second...

This is the first installment of my amateur Berry's Beta Bullets Test and Evaluation. Here is the description of the bullet from Berry's website: .45 (.452) HP 185gr 250ct sample packs of our new hollow points, first lot from the machine so we are calling them "Beta" hollow points. Look and...

Today is a state holiday so I had time to get the 550B all set up (except for the priming mechanism) Once all the dies were in proper position and locked I got started. I already had 300 pcs of .45 ACP brass that I had already primed so I skipped Station 1, pulled the pin out of Station 2, and...

My First Dipper (.308) Updated with New Design Pics! I made it this afternoon, this dipper measures 42 gr. Varget for .308. I used a 30-06 shell and brass rod. Thanks to THR for the idea and the data. Here it is all cleaned up:

I was out shooting this morning and I found a dozen-ish .45 cartridges while scrounging for brass. The primers had been hit but they hadn't fired. I scooped them up and took them home and dismantled them for parts, look at what I found inside all of them: That is some serious corrosion...

I'm not a huge fan of using Open Carry as a political statement, but this has me very proud: This was from the SLC marathon yesterday. Gino, U D Man!

I'd just like to point out that everyone is still talking about the Sandy Hook shooting but the Christopher Dorner story has vanished completely. IMHO, this is due entirely to relentless press coverage and that is due to a confluence with a specific narrative. Think about how we are being...

If any of the proposed gun bills become law they will fail. This failure will be blamed not on the bad law(s) or the lack of enforcement, but on the perceived lack of severity, definition, inclusiveness, NRA, and the uncaring gunowners. This failure will spur more calls to action from our...

Dick Cavett has been writing a series of OP-ED's about guns. He is taking a very condescending and superior tack in these articles. While simultaneously parroting long-debunked arguments, numbers, and positions. I highly recommend logging on and informing him of his errors. Here is one of...

Welp, there ya have it. I don't even know what to say about the NYT printing this, especially now. I wish comments were open to see what kind of support it is generating. Let's Give Up on the Constitution ETA: I just realized that this isn't exactly directly related to Firearm issues as per...

I did a search and couldn't find anything about this. Looks like another Zumbo gets outed
