AK's are more popular than ever before in this country, I see that as a good thing. :cool: The basic design is solid and there's a lot more you can get out of the action than is encountered in most commonly available AK's. More and more AK parts are being manufactured domestically. It seems...

I don't know what the right way to put the idea into action is so I'm posting it here in the hopes we might be able to brainstorm on it a bit. Here's the deal... self defense is the natural right of every living organism as is abundantly evident in nature. Self defense is a basic human right...

So, would you say that a law enforcement officer should have at least a vague passing familiarity with the laws he or she is supposed to be enforcing? I ask because a while ago I was caught up in one of those highly dubious random checkpoints while I was doing some business. First the LEO...

I was just thinking about how many people we have in our country and how many of them are shooters. Obviously that adds up to a whole lot of lead down range. I'm aware of ecological issues because I have enough sense to realize it's dumb to foul your own nest so I don't do much shooting on my...

Would a stainless or carbon steel barrel be better for high pressure ammo? From what I remember carbon steel is generally tougher. Along those lines is a harder or softer barrel better at high pressure? More softly tempered steel is usually tougher but higher hardness steel usually has...

It seems I know a lot of people who have had problems with ProMag over the years but I haven't heard much about Triple K. They make some after market mags for some guns that are hard to find mags for. Does anybody have much experience with this company's magazines?

I am trying to find a 7.62x25 caliber extended barrel for my TT-33. I found a stainless extended and threaded barrel that was apparently of European origin so it seems that the 7.62x25 barrel should exist out there somewhere. Does anybody know where I could find one?

There is a company in Canada that has some 9 round magazines I would like to buy. They are willing to sell and ship to America but I wanted to be clear whether or not customs or the ATF or anybody else will give me hassles as far as actually recieving my mags. Anybody know?

I've heard conflicting stories on this but I've never seen any hard facts. If you wanted to manufacture gun parts and accessories like stocks, slings, mag releases, followers and rail mounts would you need an FFL? I would think no because none of those are regulated components but I've heard...

I've got an M-39 Finnish Mosin w/ wartime stock and SA marked cleaning kit. Obviously it has been used in a war but I've never shot this one. Anybody know what it might be worth these days?

What is it about Thompson that appeals to his supporters? The only thing I know about him is that he supports the Patriot Act. If somebody could post his voting record it would be interesting to review and discuss.

Go to www.2008horserace.com and take a look at how Paul has been singled out with "spammer" in big red letters over his poto. Then vote in the poll and take a screen cap. Come back a little while later and watch in amazment as they delete votes for Paul right before your eyes. I watched it go...

He has them so scared they want to silence him to boost their failing "front runners." Here is a petition with thousands of signatures already to oppose this B.S. http://www.petitiononline.com/RPRNC08/petition.html

Ol' Wolfie was trying really, really hard to beat down Paul over the whole "blaming Americans" B.S. and Paul made him and Giuliani look like complete dupes. Here, watch the video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sy4Eugc0Xls The only thing Giuliani managed to do with his phoney baloney...

If so, what do you think about'em? I always thought they were really cool when I was a kid for some reason, maybe it was an 80's thing. I also always wanted a Beretta Bobcat but it ended up being better in my imagination than it was in real life. On the other hand AK's ended up being...

I used to carry an MK-9 just about everywhere but I decided it didn't have enough capacity to be carried when I wasn't at work and was too big to be a deep cover piece for work. The other problem was that it just isn't a gun you can shoot all the time. The recoil spring wears out in about 500rds...

The more I learn about it the more I realize what a great caliber .22 magnum really is. Right now I can think of only two interesting handguns chambered in this little giant... the NAA minis and an 8 shot revolver from Taurus. The Grendel P-30 was the only semiauto .22 mag I've ever heard of...

I don't know how it happened, but I accidentally ran across some info on the Serbu BFG-50 a few nights ago, and, well, I've been a little giddy over the idea of getting a .50 instead of .308 ever since. I guess I'm kind of looking for feedback and input on various .50bmg rifles out there that...

This kind of stuff is excellent intel if you're worried about rogue government or UN takeovers, or whatever your pet Us against Them scenario is. It really shows you the capabilities and limitations of thermal imaging. I'm familiar with the tech, but there's a big difference between working from...
