    Producing a gun a national security issue?

    Our current administration has decided that posting gun plans for 3d printers to the internet is a issue of national security. http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2013/08/08/as-3d-printed-rifles-get-real-are-changes-to-gun-laws-coming/?intcmp=features In this specific case the gun is printed off a 3D...

    The most current and most complete defensive handgun book?

    I am looking for a fairly recent and as far as possible complete book of defensive handgun techniques with a emphasis on techniques. I know new books have just rolled out on this in recent months and I do not want a rehash of the same old information. I get it the basics don't change but within...

    Civilian Drones and Handguns

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jplh7uatr-E People assume their are no such things as civilian drones... Simply not true, any remote controlled aircraft could be considered a drone. This video looks at the dangers and hazards that could easily be leveraged by a BG. Further imagine controller run...

    What the Right To Keep And Bear Arms Means to Me

    First off this is not an all-inclusive summary of what I believe the right to mean, this is a single incident that has stuck with me to this day... Hurricane Mitch occurred in 1998. I was one of a hand selected crew of military people who was sent to provide humanitarian support. I volunteered...

    The 1911 (45 ACP) with greater capacity than any production Glock

    Ok I have a hard time believing this is real.... And despite my rabidly despising all things Glock, I’m not looking to bash it in this thread..... So what do you think! :) http://www.shottist.com/beltfed.html It has to be a joke.. I cant imagine how it would deal with links... Real or not? And...

    9MM Major?

    I just learned about this 9MM Major round idea which seems a little funky.. Isnt 357 Magnum basically the same thing? Has anyone shot this round and what is your perception of your experience?

    Potentially deadly donuts

    This morning my wife and I were in a mood for a good donut... We drove to a little artisan bakery that is only a minute or two from my house. As usual they had a very nice selection of heart stopping goodies and we picked stuff and ordered. So while were standing there waiting for some things to...

    SIG P224 & 938 super mini review

    I got to handle both pistols at a Official Sig event today along with the Sig 716 Rifle. The P224 felt very much like my SIG P220 Carry in a shorter grip version... The trigger was very much the first class smooth as glass signature of Sig. The gun balanced well in my hand and the shortness of...

    Very short SIG 716 Review

    Today in Little Falls Mn, Sig Sauer and other manufacturers of firearms put on a gun show in the drizzle... I got to handle the P224, P938 and shoot a single round through the SIG 716. I didnt get to look at the weapon very long because of the demand of other to look at and shoot it but I can...

    In the past few days I have read material on this forum that I hadnt heard concerning Minnesota having laws that somehow (supposedly, I do not know factually) are more generous concerning the display of a gun in public... I have yet to find the answer but Im looking for it... But while looking...

    Israeli Carry

    I know of at least three people that Israeli carry despite my having explained in depth why it is a poor choice to do so.... The constant reply I get from my friends is that they feel its safer and I reply with if you feel your guns unsafe or cant be trusted then get a new gun... I even went so...

    How long are the NICS Checks taking?

    For years whenever I purchased a pistol the NICS checks always get delayed and then about 4 hours later (often less) I get the go and return to the store and pick up my purchase... I have no convictions of any kind for anything.... Never charged with anything, not so much as a speeding ticket...

    Is your web presence a threat to you and your family?

    I have a cousin who lives in West Virginia, about a week ago one of his neighbors had 3 men kick or somehow force the front door in and proceeded to execute a home invasion. The 21 year old man who was the primary resident of the house was stabbed three times and shot once. (I do not have all...

    LEOS constantly touching weapons, Is it Legal, is it policy or is it training?

    The Canton PD thing really got me thinking about what I have seen LEOs as a group commonly do in the past two years. The one thing I recall as a constant personal observation is that many, heck almost all LEOS I see seem to clutch and grasp their sidearm almost continually even in situations...
