    NIJ armor rateing and shotgun shells

    This has been bugging me for a while, I can't find anything that talks about rating armor against shotgun shells. I know there's a lot of variables but there must be some basic idea of what they can and can't penetrate. Also if anyone has any idea where I can find info on the energy (or muzzle...

    Conceled holster for long arms.

    okay, me and my grand father both have a bit of a problem. We have long arms and short waists. While we can use hip holsters they are not comfortable or quick. Drop-leg holsters are what we find most comfortable but people don't like open carry and i hate the mall ninja image that goes with...

    Biodegradable magazines? A possibility?

    Okay, I wasn’t sure where to put this as it doesn’t pertain to any one fire arm type. I was down at the local café today. I have been going there so long that the biodegradable utensils (takes them about six months) are nothing impressive. But I realized something. If you could make disposable...

    Calico M951S or Beretta CX4 Storm?

    Okay here’s the thing. I’ve been looking at a 9mm carbine for some time and I am down to two options, a Calico M951S or a Beretta CX4 Storm. I was thinking of the H&K UMC but one, its too expensive, two I don’t like H&K (long story), and three I don’t like .45’s especially when I’m looking for...

    Magpul magazines

    Okay, I’ve seen the PMAGs, the EMAGSs; I can’t find the LR-PMAGS (the 7.62x51mm/.308) and I want to know if anyone here has any experience with any of them and if they know if the EMAGs will be sold in smoke tinted. I have watched these things be torture tested and can’t argue with the results.

    A message to all anti’s

    If you got the chance to say or force them to do one thing to all of the worlds top anti gun lobbyists what would you say/ make them do? I would make them go out to a firing range and make them shoot a wide variety of weapons so they would at least comprehend what there standing against.

    Who do you think makes the best guns?

    What company do you think makes the best (performance vs. price) guns and why? I’m not trying to start a fight but I was just wondering if I was the only one who favored European guns over U.S. domestic weapons? Mostly because I see no innovation in American guns, just the same old ideas, in the...

    Introducing a foreigner to guns

    Okay I have a question for you. If you knew someone who came from a foreign country with extremely strong gun laws such as Japan (No one can own guns unless they are involved with the JSDF [just call it a damn army already] or law enforcement) and they had just moved to America would you be...

    how does a Mateba Autorevolver work?

    Okay, won’t lie, I know basically jack about most pistols. I mean yah hand me one and I can tell you how it works after an hour of looking it over. I understand the Different actions and all, but this one has me stumped. The Mateba Autorevolver, how does it work? And how reliable is it? I’m not...

    What holster to use for a .410 revolver?

    Alright, I have been looking at a Taurus Judge Magnum for a while now, for those of you who don’t know its five shot revolver that fires .45 colt or .410 shotgun shells. Yes this thing is legal despite having a 3" barrel because it has rifling and is there for a “handgun.” My question is this...

    A practical take on the Bullpup vs. Conventional argument.

    I have been hearing a lot about this in recent time so I figured I would throw in my two cents and see if I get shot down. All weapons compared use 5.56x 45mm NATO and do not include light machinegun variants. Bullpup Rifles Based off the F2000, FAMAS, L85/SA80, AUG • Length: 630mm to...

    The Calico M100/900

    Okay, I am big on military style weapons. Now, in the movies Total Recall and Space Balls two weapons showed an odd similarity. In both I assumed them to be just sci-fi guns but they caught my attention because of them both having similar large “tubes” on the back of the weapon. I fist looked up...

    Help with shotgun ID

    Okay, I was out the other and a friend of mine asked me if I could ID a gun from a video he had on his Creative Zen. I said I would take a look and this one threw me. At first it looked like a lever action shotgun, but after firing four rounds they reloaded and started using it like a pump...

    NS2000 legality

    Okay who here knows what a NeoStead NS2000 is? If you don’t it’s a shotgun, reverse pump action, bullpup, it is 27 inches long, has a 22inch barrel, holds 12 rounds, shoots 2 ¾” 12 gauge. Everything I have seen says they can’t be imported into the US, but other than the magazine size, what keeps...

    Is society pushing guns out?

    Why do guns seem to be taboo? I was raised around them, my dad bought a .22 LR for me a week before I was born (nice little lever action, some difficulty with ejection but still nice) and I have always been taught that they are tools, well maintained and careful handled they are relatively safe...

    FN P90 costs how much!

    Okay, who here loves tactical style weapons? I do. But have you seen the price on them! I was looking for some thing that was just a little more than a .22 LR (Walther G22 rifle) but still cheep. After exhausting the .22 WMR and the .22 Hornet (I even looked briefly at the .222) I finally turned...
