I did a search of the archives, and didn't see anything like this so I am asking now. Does anyone have experience with laser bore sighters? I mean the ones that you put in the chamber and send a laser down the barrel to the target so you can more easily sight in your scope or iron sights...

I wanted to get some advice or documentation on the following problem: I took some friends to the range last night - they are buying a shotgun and wanted some help on using it. We rented a Benelli Nova 12 ga. and I showed them how to to load, hold it, and fire it. The problem is that the wife...

I saw Mr and Mrs. Smith on TV a couple of nights ago. During the fight between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt that took place in their suburban home, Jolie used a slick looking shotgun. What kind of shotgun was it? Thanks in advance for answering my question. Bill

Hi, I just bought a Remington LTR in .308. I am getting it for 3 gun competition, and target shooting. I don't know much about scopes at all, and have a budget of about $400.00 for the scope. I am looking at Leopould scopes, but wanted to hear what people on this forum thought. Also, I...

I was watching Future Weapons on the Discovery channel this week and they had a show on CQB weapons - the Criss sub mg, an auto shotgun and the AT-4 anti-armour rocket. The narrator, the ex-Seal guy, was saying that the automatic shotgun (I can't remember what the model name was) had very...

Below is an article from Slate magazine. It refers to the shooting of the bridegroom last week just before his wedding. The author discusses contagious shooting, where one person shoots and it causes others to start shooting. I have never heard of this before; the author mentions it as though...

Below is the url and part of an article on a poll of the military on social issues. It appears that on the issue of gun rights the majority of military people in this survey are not opposed to restricting gun rights. I tried to copy and paste it but only the piece below came across, not the...

Over the Memorial Day weekend, I attended Front Sight’s 4 day tactical shotgun course. First, my background in shotguns – I have competed in several 3 gun competitions with shotgun/pistol and have taken a local 1 day course in self defense shotgun but other than that I have not had any training...

I have had trouble with it jamming on slugs, and while I was at the shot show last week I had a chance to talk to Benelli factory reps. One of them said that the Benelli was rate at firing 1 1/8 oz loads, and since the standard slug was 1 oz., that would cause it to jam (he also said the sabot...

I was watching NCIS last night, and the hot new female agent is in a tight spot and throws a knife underhanded at one of the bad guys (actually a bad woman) and of course it is buried to the hilt and the baddie dies. I was wondering, can you actually throw a knife and have it be effective, let...

I'm curious if the article below is accurate. It sounds as though the LAPD is still having huge problems and has been this way for awhile due to political correctness. Do any of you out there, especially LEO's, know about this? A long article...
