    Wife

    I'm shopping around a bit. She has used one of my single stack 1911's off and on for a few years. But she wants her "own gun". We stopped by one of the local gun shops on the way home from the chiropractors the other day. I knew they had a SIG Mosquito and Walther P22 in stock. Mosquito...

    Negligent Discharge; ongoing account

    Here you go guys. Time for a little sobering up. ***WARNING; Graphic picture advisory*** http://negligentdischarge.com/leg.html ---- IMO This is a good idea by this guy. His bad decision can be for our benefit. Though a gun is just a lifeless tool, one should treat it with respect. Review...

    Looking for sword info

    I'm looking for some information on two specific swords. I'm looking for an old family heirloom. Would have been found in Paris, mid-late 18th century. Not military swords per se. They would be long, and have a rounded tip. Any aficionados here of that time period in revolutionary France?

    M1A rebarrelled in 7mm-08?

    Anybody ever heard of this being done? I'm considering putting together some bolt-actions in this caliber, it would be nice if they were the same as my M1A's.

    Bionic Arm a machinegun?

    http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/07/18/robo_hand_gets_big_hand/ This article made me wonder if we might find prosthetics someday classified by the ATF as machine guns...

    1911; To locktite, or not to locktite...

    I have a quick question. This is an excerpt I sent to one of our THR members, but didn't get answer: I don't want to name names, but I PM'ed this a fellow that has 1911 in his member name, and he's known for "tuning" a lot of 1911's. :D I'm sure he's just been busy, or hadn't noticed my...

    Iron Sights; for night use on a rifle

    Alright, this is kind of a weird question. And I tried searching for an answer last night, but came up with very little. (One reason is because searching for "XS" yields zero results). My intention is to have a non-battery solution for aiming at night, for some AR builds I am doing. (But not...

    Which LPK

    Okay, I know. I should post this over at ar15.com. But I know there are also some guys here that have done multiple builds of AR's. I've got three new builds to do, and considering the last build I did was, hmm...like three years ago, I don't know which trigger package to get. The last one I...

    Mass School Killings

    This is in response to the thread regarding the VT shooting. That shooting too shall pass. Please reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_School_disaster I believe that is the highest mass school killing in US history. No matter what the weapons available as you can see from this...

    Doublestack 1911's; looking for holster

    Hey all, I've got a couple BUL M5's. (Similar to the Para's) I'm looking for a NON-competition, non-speed holster. Something for use as range holsters. Or standard carry. They don't have to be concealable or anything like that. Anybody have an idea where to look? [EDIT] Oh BTW...

    1:8 twist rate

    Okay, I'm still shopping AR parts. Lowers are on the back burner for now, until I can find a decent supply. So I'm onto barrels; I'm thinking of going with 18" barrels to give myself a mid-length gas system. I'm even sort of considering 20" barrels just so I could use a rifle length gas...

    POF Lowers

    Okay, in light of this thread I am looking to use POF lowers for my short range rifle. Questions; 1. Who has them? 2. Who likes them? 3. Who hates them? 3,a. If you hate them, why? P.S. Yes, I searched through AR15.com last night, (I hate their search engine...

    Time for a house cleaning...

    Ok, here’s the deal. I want to consolidate my firearms down to a select few types. I have way too many different types of firearms, most of them I don’t shoot. Some I have never shot. This is sort of a “which SHTF/if only one gun/best overall” kind of thread. But it’s not quite that. I’ll tell...

    Don Hamrick

    Hello all, Figured I would give an update about this fellow. I don't know who remembers him. Basically he's just another angry white male, a little disgruntled with his country. In a lawful manner BTW. He just rubs people the wrong way (especially the US Marshals :D ). Abrasive, loudmouth...

    AR Upper Buy/Build: Left-hand eject

    Okay, I am helping a friend find/build an upper for his Bushmaster lower. Unfortunately he wants it to have port side eject. I have found DPMS builds complete rifles and uppers with left hand eject. And Stag Arms completes, completed uppers and kits. Is this it? I have browsed THR...

    Darwin Award (maybe, can't confirm)

    One of my coworkers Emailed this to me. I couldn't confirm it's true though. I tried to Google. I also searched the board here. Either it's brand new, or fresh off the press. Can anyone verify? ----------------------------------------- Donald D Hawkins, Early Candidate for...

    Sling/carry strap on pistol?

    Hey, anyone know the legalities of putting a sling or a carry strap on a pistol? I'm tenatively planning a hiking/climbing trek later this year. A buddy and I are probably headed out west into no-man's land. We were thinking of just going out for a week or so. Obviously a holster with a...
