    Where do you sit

    Depends on the schedule, the number of us on the team that show up, and where we have 'holes' that need to be filled. I was moved from my scheduled spot yesterday because I was about 10 minutes late, so they swapped me and another guy. I'm stationed in a handful of different locations that are...

    Prices creeping up

    I started watching the Fostech Echo triggers on Gunbroker. I have plans to use one in my next AR build, but now is not the time to buy! Back toward the first of August, they were selling for $350-ish, which is a good price: http://www.gunbroker.com/item/689737551 This past weekend, they were...

    possible legislation to ban bump stocks

    This is like the 'shoestring machine gun' because all manner of bump-firing any gun will then "illegally convert the said firearm into an unregistered machine gun". All you need is a thumb and a belt loop and you have made a machine gun. As seen in many bump fire videos: I couldn't vote in...

    Republicans push gun silencer bill

    Nope, he never liked the two gun bills in congress, he's a spineless tool. If the bill is wrong to keep alive now, it's wrong to ever bring back to life later. His act of surrender to Hillary's tweet is irreparable and the Democrats know this. But again, Ryan never wanted to relax a single gun...

    Politicians pulling guns at public events

    I was surprised that, through as much searching as I did, there wasn't a thread to be found regarding Judge Roy Moore's recent event where he pulled a handgun out of holster while on stage at a public campaign event. I don't recall any politician in my lifetime ever doing something similar...

    National Guard To Seize Guns, Ammo Ahead Of Hurricane Irma

    I'm not up to speed on the US territories' powers in these circumstances, but I thought they were also governed by the US Constitution. This article unfortunately does not get into those details at all. Here's a copy of the signed order...

    What Stupid things have you done?

    I know a couple guys who "plea-bargained away" false DV charges under advice from their respective attorneys, resulting in their 2A rights being forever removed. I know both wish they could do that over again.

    Another Canadian shatters the wold record confirmed sniper kill on ISIS fighter... a 2.2 mile shot!

    Canadians, right? Them and their McMillan TAC-50 rifles.

    Bulletproof elk can know if you're carrying a bow vs. rifle, then change their behavior accordingly!

    Never knew elk cows lived past the age of 20!

    How can you measure the height of a shooting range's berm / backstop?

    Let not your heart be troubled, I've been following the thread with interest. I'm going to go back to this initial idea as illustrated by jmorris. I think I've rounded up enough hose that I can do this. But as I had mentioned, getting up to height, down in the range is really the only obstacle...

    How can you measure the height of a shooting range's berm / backstop?

    I had considered that, but I don't think I have a way to get up to 25 feet or so to reach the water level, out in the range, away from the dam. Even using a 12' step ladder in the bed of my pickup, I still don't think it'll get me high enough, and then the falling hazards get real. Here's...

    How can you measure the height of a shooting range's berm / backstop?

    Half a foot or less? The only thing I'd come up with was a water column level, but that would require many dozens of yards of tubing; maybe 60+ yards or so just for the 'B' vertical. There would be no way I could get a hold of 200 yards of tubing for the 'A' measurement. Also, I'd have to have...

    How can you measure the height of a shooting range's berm / backstop?

    This drawing is a relative representation of the shooting range on my land. I shoot into a dam that I can only guess is 15' - 30' high, and for that guess, I'm using the vertical identified as 'B' in the drawing. As you can see, the bench is a few feet in elevation above the low spot where the...

    Vote between these three scopes for my 20" AR build

    Thanks guys. I own more Leupolds than anything else, but I also own Weavers, Burris and Nikon. They are all on hunting rifles, so I guess I just don't shoot enough through glass to have noticed a difference. They've all killed what they aim at. I've been wanting to get into Vortex with all the...

    Vote between these three scopes for my 20" AR build

    I recently built a fairly nice 20" AR that I have yet to scope. I've spent ~$1,600 so far before the optic. I'm leaning more in the direction of two of the three choices, and between the two, I keep bouncing back and forth. I just wanted to see where you guys might land if you were to add a...

    Biggest gun bust in Brooklyn history sees terrifying haul of more than 200 weapons seized as police

    Simple solution... just pass a law prohibiting this kind of stuff and that's it; no more gun trafficking. You simply just have to think up the specifics of a law that criminals will obey, and you're good to go.

    What's the deal with Python hunting?

    They are here to stay. Just like wild hogs in the southern states, Asian carp in the Mississippi River, these non-native species are too dug in and will never be eliminated via the current efforts in place. Having handled, been bitten by, and raised pythons and other snakes in years past, I...

    Ginormous Rabbit

    My daughter is going to love this video when I show it to her this evening. She's watched all of Julia's videos (you need to make more, quicker!) and she is a big fan. She also likes to eat the cottontail that we shoot or trap off our land. Slow cooked is the way to go.
