    Are these merely Terry stops, or is this acceptable policing?

    This was sent to me by an old friend in NYC- Since the odds of someone carrying legally in NYC are somewhere between slim and none, could an officer then articulate that any "bulge in clothing" could be construed as a "reasonable" cause for NYPD's "stop and frisk" policy, or did the NYPD take...

    Yeah, another AR question...

    I've decided that the next addition to the family will be an AR. I've narrowed it down to either a RRA Elite CAR4 or a Colt 6920/6721. The RRA & 6721 have a 1:9 twist, the 6920, 1:7. I'm leaning towards, but haven't committed to, the 6920. Will the 1:7 shoot lighter weights such as...
