That thread deteriorated and was closed. I had one question that I was surprised to see never addressed. While the gentleman who made the video seemed to be well within his rights according to Michigan law, was it not in violation of federal law, namely the Gun Free School Zones Act?

Apparently it is legal to hunt humans now.... I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't hear it from that states own senior Democratic Senator...

Do you own firearms for which you have no ammo? I don't necessarily mean that you are temporarily out because of the shortages, but guns that you just don't ever stock ammo for. I have noticed that as I accumulate more firearms in various calibers I simply don't keep ammo on hand for all of...

*Updated- Looks like it wasn't a double charge... check Page 4* A cautionary tale for those getting into progressive reloading... I have been reloading for about 6 years now. I started with a Lee hand press, moved up to a single stage bench mounted press, got a second single stage and have...

Does anyone know where I might find any shellplates for common calibers (.223,45,9mm) in stock? MidwayUSA is showing the #45 shellplate as being backordered through 1/2014 !!!

I recently came into possession of a paratrooper stock M1 carbine. The serial #'s put its date of manufacture in 1944. It has no import markings. The person I got it from told me he bought it from a guy who claimed his uncle brought it back from WWII. It also came with 2 15-rd blued steel...

I want a .40 S&W carbine. Not for any serious use, but pistol carbines are tons of fun and there is a local range that requires pistol carbines for their 3-gun match. I also want it to use Glock magazines. I'm not a fan of Glocks, but I am forced to use them for work, so I have a ton of 22...

I just acquired an Armalite AR50. Factory .50 ammo costs are heart-stopping, with match ammo running $6-9 a round. Now that I finally have a .50 and a place to shoot it, this is just unacceptable, so I'm going to start reloading for the .50 BMG. I have been reloading for traditional...

I've recently come into possession of a Armalite AR-50, with the armalite base and one piece scope mount, with a $90 POS scope sitting on it. Now I know its never been fired with that scope, and I'm afraid to shoot it because I don't want pieces of that made in china scope in my face when it...

I recently have found myself in a sticky situation. I have a friend who recently plead guilty as part of a plea deal with the FBI and US attorney's office to a few counts of wire fraud and bank fraud. He basically lied on some federal forms in order to get millions in tax credits, which were...

Anybody ever seen one of these in the wild? I've been looking for one on all the online gun sales websites for a while now with no luck. Most of my LGS haven't even heard of one, and they certainly don't have one in the used gun section. I've even searched past auctions on gunbroker and...

I'm looking for a red dot that can be mounted on a picatinny rail that keeps a very low profile, and more importantly can be viewed with a very low stock weld. This is intended for mounting on a M500 with an Ace stock, but will probably also go on an AK with a standard stock. I've tried...

Are full auto guns manufactured 1899 or prior not regulated under the NFA? The only ones that come to mind are early Maxims and copies. I seem to remember that artillery pieces manufactured in the late 1800s could be owned without paperwork, not sure if the same applies to full-autos.

Looks like I am going to have a bit of money to burn in the near future, between 1-1.5K. Since my shooting budget for the past year has been practically zero, and I have been trading away all my excess stuff for ammo and reloading supplies so I can keep shooting, I am itching to buy myself a...

And its delicious. I'm used to the sulfurous sweet smell of burnt smokeless powder. I was shooting this weekend and a friend brought Walmart bought Tula ammo in .45, 9mm, and .223. It was my first time shooting Tula and I noticed that the .45 was quite smoky and smelled distinctly of ballpark...

I have accumulated a few pounds worth of bad brass, bullets, and spent primers. Seeing brass, copper, and lead prices I figure on taking them down to the local metal recycling yard and getting a few dollars. Do any other reloaders do this? What are your experiences at scrap yards? Do I...

So I had a couple bags full of miscellaneous range-pickup brass, mostly .45 and .40. It was a muddy wet day, and it has been sitting in the bags for a few months (work has been keeping me busy), so needless to say it was all pretty gross. I tossed the lot of it in my ultrasonic cleaner to get...

Last week I ordered an No. 4 Mk. 1 SMLE from J&G Sales. It arrived yesterday, and I thought I would share my experience with anyone who is interested in one of these rifles. This was my first purchase with my C&R, and my first dealings with J&G. I like to collect old military arms, mainly...

I am curious to know how many THR members consider themselves collectors or shooters, or both. A shooter is someone who views guns as tools, whether for hunting, self-defense, or competition. A collector is someone who views guns as intriguing pieces regardless of their practicality or...

I have custom build rifle with a stainless barrel, and another on the way. My smith swears by stainless barrels for accuracy, and with the results so far I can't argue with him. However, I hate bright shiny barrels on my rifles and wanted to know the best, most durable finish or coating...
