    "Mexican beauty queen arrested in gun-filled truck"

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081223/ap_on_re_la_am_ca/lt_mexico_beauty_queen_arrested When I saw the headline "gun filled truck" I was thinking that there would be 50-100 AK's loaded in the back or something like that. Leave it to the leftist anti press to turn 2AR's, a handful of handguns, and...

    Mumbai Terrorism and an Armed Citizenry

    Just like they did with the Vermont Tech killings, I'm sure the anti crowd will do everything that they can to spin the recent Mumbai massacre to further their agenda against firearm rights. But here's an example of a person - a journalist no less - who after witnessing his disarmed countrymen...

    Buckmark Challenge questions

    I've got two Buckmarks. A URX Standard with the newer style firing pin in the little plastic box, integral with the guide rod and spring, and an older Standard, with the older style firing pin inside the slide and the guide rod and spring as a separate assembly. Until today, I thought these...

    fastest 100 rounds I've ever seen through a handgun

    I hadn't seen this one before, and the site that it's on is, well look at the URL... but it looks authentic to me. http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1792481 Anyone know what that weapon is?

    Broke the Kel Tec

    Was shooting a few rounds through my P11, when the trigger just fell right off the gun. Plastic part just snapped right off at the base with so little pressure it surprised me. So far I've been a Kel Tec advocate because this pistol was so inexpensive and reliable (thus far), but I'm rethinking...

    Q: Injury - AR15 charging handle to the nose. Ever happen?

    Has it ever happened, or have you ever heard tales, of an AR15 malfunctioning, and the charging handle seizing up with the BCG and hitting the operator in the nose/teeth? Is this a legitimate concern, or is it so unlikely/impossible that it's like fretting about being struck by a meteor?

    would you convert to full auto if it was legal?

    Suppose, just suppose, with the M-16 references in the Heller decision, it became lawful to convert existing AR's, AK's, etc to full auto without any licensing or paperwork. Would you?

    Slate runs an almost pro-gun column! (W/video)

    I am amazed. Slate, a high-profile website that usually runs between slightly left and radical-uber-liberal (they're unabashed Obama supporters), actually ran this story that was almost pro gun! The video itself is far from informative, the reporting and production are lame, but it does...

    bad vibrations

    Someone on another thread posted a link to the rec.guns FAQ, which I had never read before, and I read the following in this article in the "MAKING YOUR SEMI-AUTOMATIC RELIABLE" section. Is there any truth to this vibration issue? The content of this FAQ seems to vary in quality, for example...

    firing pin dry lube?

    Do you use any sort of dry lubricant/coating on your firing pins? I've always been told to leave them dry, so I left them unlubed, but was curious about dry lube possibilities.

    PLR-16: got one?

    I've had a hankerin' for a Kel Tec PLR-16 for some time now, for no other reason except that it looks like it might be fun. Anyone out there got one yet? How would you rate it for accuracy, reliability, ergonomics, quality, ease of takedown/cleaning, etc? Thanks!

    ND(?) kills 18month old

    Source Article I don't know how this guy is going to be able to live with himself after this. Yet another reason to keep the four rules strict, no exceptions.

    Kel-Tec in the PRK?

    I have to travel to the Peoples Republic of Kalifornia for work for the next couple weeks, and I would feel like a sheep at the slaughter if I didn't bring at least one pistol for SD. My list of PRK-legal guns is short. I believe the Ruger GP100 is legal there, but it's a tank, and I'm an auto...

    "you got your gun, Frank?" It's Always Sunny...

    Have any of you been watching "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia?" Besides the obviously great the first-season episode "Gun Fever", I always get a huge laugh out of Danny DeVito's character Frank and his gun habits. Whenever someone asks "Frank, you got your gun?" or "Frank, go get your gun"...

    Stag 15

    It's here! The Stag 15 (type 2) arrived over the weekend. Here it is with a couple of its new friends. It's still box-stock, and I will probably be satisfied with that for at least another day or two. Put 70 rounds through it so far, doing barrel breakin. I know someone's going to tell me...

    Kel Tec P11

    I had been wanting a Kel Tec PF-9 for awhile now, and today located a local shop that carries them. The sales guy had a NIB PF-9 for $300 or a near-mint/LNIB P11 for $250 plus an extra mag. I liked the PF-9, but in my mitts the P11 felt a little better with the thicker grip, plus with the...

    cleaning ammo

    Well, I finally found the lost box of .45acp handloads. They've been lost in the storage room at my dad's house (indoors, dry) for a long time, like 15 years, and they're kinda dusty and grungy. There's about 400 of them, some of them look like they've got some sticky red Kool Aid dried on them...

    Kahr CWP9?

    I have been looking at small framed automatics for concealed carry, and one that I am interested in and like so far is the Kahr CWP9. I looked at one yesterday for $380 NIB, stainless. Would you recommend one? Hate it? Love it?

    shooting random Iraqis (video)

    I stumbled across this this video on youtube, which is (according to the site) " A "trophy" video appearing to show security guards in Baghdad randomly shooting Iraqi civilians" It's pretty severe and looks like it could be real. I don't know how to feel about this one. Forgive me if this topic...
