Given the nature of one of the most horrific mass shooting incidents in American history, we realize that emotions are running high, as they should be. However, this is not the time to consider what should or shouldn’t have been done, nor the time to speculate on its future effects on our...

Hey guys! I'm looking for a half decent digital game camera as a Christmas gift, so I need some quick answers. It doesn't have to be state-of-the-art. I'm hoping for a minimum 4 megapixel camera with IR flash, date/time/temperature stamp, and reasonable battery life. And, I need all that...

And I thought hunting deer from the air was illegal :D. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20110617/us_nm/us_deer_power Parents, hide your kids, or weigh them down with concrete blocks :eek:! Seriously, has anyone seen or heard of anything like this? And if you could train an eagle to hunt for you...

A friend recently inherited an H&R model 999 "Sportsman" .22 cal. top break revolver. This gun is in excellent shape, but there is one small problem: When the gun is opened, instead of the ejector popping the empties out, the whole cylinder pops out. There is a notch at the base of the...

Here's something a little different for a change. While browsing Youtube, I stumbled on this little goodie. Yes, it's loaded with tons of safety failures, but that aside, I'm curious as to what's actually going on there? On the surface, it appears to be just another good ol' boy gathering...

During the summer of 2009, the Pastor and members of a small, rural church here invited me to a church get-together... in the form of a fun shoot! :cool: This was a total family affair. The Pastor opened with a prayer, followed by a reading of the 2nd Amendment and a "sermon" on the importance...

Durn burn it! I had a website bookmarked awhile back that showed a slow-motion, animated internal view of several guns (one was a Glock, I remember) cycling, and somehow I lost the darned thing. I've been trying to explain the inner workings of some semi-autos to a new shooter and this would...

A friend of mine recently bought a used Marlin 882, bolt action .22 WMR. He's experienced a series of misfires that appear to be from a light firing pin strike. Through a little experimentation, we noticed something strange. If he closes the bolt easily, it misfires almost every time. But if...

This youngster is absolutely amazing! He's shooting a course that a lot of experienced adults would find challenging, and still maintains great muzzle discipline. :cool: He ain't bad at magazine changes and racking that slide, either. (Especially when you consider that the gun is half as big...

A couple of months ago, I was wandering through Cabella's bargain cave and spotted a neat little flashlight. It's a Cabella's Alaskan Guide that appears to be a Surefire wannabe, and has 3 red LED's and a 6V Xenon bulb. The price was right so I bought it on a whim. It actually turned out to...

Well, the scope on my Ruger 10/22 gave up the ghost, so I went shopping. This gun is only for plinking / fun, so I was looking for something cheap, but decent. As I was bumbling through Wally World, I spotted a Center Point, Adventure Class scope with some nifty (but totally unnecessary)...

We've all heard the debate. When unholstered and not pointing at a target, should the muzzle be pointed up or down? The "proper" way has done a 180 over the years, so which is it? Here is a highly detailed article that sheds some interesting light on the subject. Granted, it's aimed mainly...

I don't like having to close other folk's threads, I really don't. Some of you may not believe that, seeing the number of threads I've closed over the last few days. Back when Erick posted his "Pendulum and Scythe" thread, I wondered if perhaps he was being a mite rough on folks. I'm...

:D :D

Ya gotta love 'im! :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_QjEL0uUgo

For the last couple of days, my dept. has been engaged in our semi-annual re-qualifications. Today was make-up day and I had time to shoot a few pictures. I didn't get to the range in time for pistol or shotgun requals., but I did manage to get a few with our M-16's and Colt 9mm DEA subguns...

A little help here please. A good friend has been looking for some time now for a double action revolver chambered in .45 Colt. He recently found one, never fired, for $650. Here's the gun: The problem? The gun is a S&W Rocky Mountain Ram, and only 300 were ever made. I've never heard...

OK folks, easy (I hope) problem for y'all to help me solve. Went out shootin' a bunch of stuff today and encountered a problem with my Model '94 Winchester. After about 20 rounds, I found it impossible to load the magazine and discovered that the magazine tube had pulled out of the receiver by...

Late last year, I got one heck of a deal on a Smith mod. 25-3, 125th Anniversary Commemorative in .45 Colt. The finish is absolutely mint, and is like a black mirror with zero dings, nicks or scratches. Not even any cylinder locking pin drag marks! And, it works as well as it looks. All of...
