A few days ago, I sent an e-mail to Windham Weaponry asking what the differences were between the "Compass Lake Chamber" and other types of .223/5.56 NATO chambers. Here's my inquiry, and the much appreciated response from Erik Winter at WW. The bold type and underlining is mine...

Hey there Mods... what does a big white blank screen with the words "502 Bad Gateway" emblazoned across it mean? I've been getting that several times in the past few minutes, instead of being able to go where I want to go or post. This a issue on my end, or a forum issue? Thanks, C

Here's one to chew on. Do you think holo and/or reflex sights will be fit as original equipment to combat handguns in the near future? We see them more and more on Glocks and 1911s... and even "ready to install" on guns like the FN 45. Will they replace iron sights completely, or will they...

So I'm sitting here, watching "My Classic Car" on the tube, and they're doing a story about the "Beatersville" car show... I think in Louisville, KY. We all know what a "ratrod" is. A DIY hotrod with a nice patina of primer, rust, grease and baked on roadkill bits. Usually, they go like a...

Anyone building an AR right now that has some out of the ordinary features? I'm not talking about caliber, but rather interesting and uncommon parts like... Fail Zero BCGs, Teludyne "StraightJacket" uppers, White Oak match uppers, monolithic uppers, special or hydraulic buffers, laser range...

Howdy all, I had an idea earlier today. I was reading this thread and it came to me that the member 'Scorch' probably invested a bit of time and effort in finding the information requested by new member 'poho1579'. As you can see from my post in the thread, I suggested that, if poho1579...

Watched a new show on TruTV, "Combat Pawn" this morning. I DVR'd it from last evening. First show in the new series, this is set in a Fort Bragg, North Carolina gun shop by the name of "Guns Plus"... owned and operated, apparently, by vets. In the first transaction, a guy comes in with a H&K...

The recent post here got me thinking. I've been contemplating painting a Benelli M2... no skulls or zombie apocalypse stuff. No ducks in flight or turkeys with a surprised look on their faces. No geometric patterns. Something completely out of the ordinary... perhaps contradictory, but no...

Anyone know who will be carrying Olympic shooting and archery on the tube... or the interweb for that matter? I have NBCs shooting and archery schedules, but no clue as to broadcast or cable showtimes if any. Not that it matters much, but I'm on the left coast. Gratzee, C

Interesting... a 3-D plastic AR lower. Goodnight... enjoy! Cheers, C

Recently, I've noticed on this and other forums that there are more and more target rifle shooters taking loading equipment to the range. Good for you! I've also noticed that few recreational shooters know what a powder chart is. For decades (centuries... millennia?), competition, varmint and...

Just for fun, lets play the "what if" game... shall we? What if... You just inherited $5000 from a semi-rich, somewhat reclusive aunt. Her one stipulation is that all the money is spent within 36 hours of receipt and that the entire amount is spent on at least one but no more than two...

I'm bored right now... snow on the ground, cold as hell in the shop and not much to do, so I decided to write what I call a "cautionary tale" for new and potential tactical shotgun owners. Is any of this gospel? Nope... just opinion based on experience and observation. Take it for what it's...

I wrote this article a few years ago. It was published in the .50 caliber shooters newsletter, but in no other format that I'm aware of. I thought I might share it with everyone here. As this article is a few years old, some of the tools, equipment and techniques discussed may have been...
