I have an older S&W Model 10-5 with an intermittent problem. Once in a while, say 5% of the time, after firing a round (or dry firing), the gun will lock up. IE, trigger won't move, hammer can't be pulled back. I can open the cylinder, and close it, and it will work fine. No obvious...

What I heard on local radio was that the jumper managed to get a pistol away from an officer and fired a shot. In the ensuing hilarity, the idiot got shot.

I am a permanent resident alien and was incorrectly denied early last year when the rules changed. Permanent residents can purchase firearms, temporary residents can't. The NICS operator screwed up and denied me, but a NICS supervisor I talked to a few minutes later confirmed I was OK, but...

So Mr Mullethead thought he was protecting his privacy by running outside, yelling, cursing and pointing a gun at someone with a video camera? I.e. by making a spectacle of himself? Good way to remain anonymous, NOT!

From the original issue, I thought the problem wasn't that the police came and checked him out, it was that they were clumsy and rude when they did it. It wasn't an issue of "violating his rights", it was of handling a stupid noproblem complaint with a lack of civility. IIRC it was when he...

Really? Where in the Patriot Act does it do so?

There are many documented cases of this occuring in Canada as well.

Don't forget armored strikeplates and door reinforcers around the lock. The tough lock won't help if the door breaks or the strike plate gets torn out. I went with the High Security Schlage dead bolts. From what I could tell the Kwikset locks were not ANSI rated, which made me nervous.

I'm a Canadian citizen, US permanent resident. Washington state has a Alien Firearms permit requirement. The US gov tightened the rules about 2 years ago and temporary residents can no longer legally buy guns if I follow it correctly. I got rejected on a firearm purchase by the NICS folks...

Hmm. I recall a news article a few years ago about a man that was beaten to death with a frozen salmon. I guess any fish shaped items should be offensive as well.

Joel Rosenberg is very good. He is a CCW instructor, and I know he posts at Glocktalk. editted to add: Mr Rosenberg posts here at the high road as well.

Some facts on this artillery shell. This explosion occured a few days ago. Another Sirin gas shell was found as well. The shells are old, about 15-20 years old. They are not marked as they normally would be. It sounds like the Iraqi insurgents found a stash of them.

Given Moore's record for being "creative" in his movies, wanna bet those "soldiers" are NOT in Iraq or Afghanistan, and are NOT soldiers?

I didn't know they actually built the Maus. I understood it weighed 1500 tons (or something equally huge) , way too much for any bridge in Europe.

Quartus says Why do you say that?

So, um, where's the violation of my rights bit in the Patriot act?

Um, what liberties did the Patriot Act take away?

To "prove" gun control laws work you will need to show a causal relationship, not demonstrate a correlation. For example. The UK has tough gun laws, and no shark attacks off its shores. The US has looser gun laws, and there have been many shark attacks off its shores. Conclusion...

Teflon coated, or moly coated? And how does Teflon coating make them cop killers again? And how does Teflon coating make the bullets armor piercing?
