Let me say first off I ain't here to start a Georgia state flag debate. It's a finished issue. I took a look over at Glocktalk and ran across their pro/con change the GA flag debate, and it got me to thinking... how do we seperate and choose how much of something we honor? How many of us...

Okay- those of you with Taurus revolvers may or may not be impressed with the detent in the front of the barrel lug that holds the ejector rod, I assume for extra strength in keeping the cylinder where it's supposed to be. The little knurrled (sp?) tip of the rod on my 445 unscrewed itself...

The thread on the Boston office shooting got me to thinking; can a business owner ban CCW in their building in states that issue CCW permits? This question is both for privately owned businesses and companies that have, say, their headquarters in Massachusets and a branch in Georgia. Meaning...

Since I have finally delved into this reloading thing so I can practice a little more, I ordered a buttload of cast bullets for 44 spl and 45 ACP along with the reloading stuff. I'm not going to be eating cheetos and ding dongs at the bench, but what other safety considerations should I implement?

Looking for a scope for a Savage 112BVSS. I like the Leupold 8.5-25X over the 6.5-20X. Any opinions? This is for 300+ yd target shooting for fun, not competition. Also, the Target models (not the 30mm long range target) I saw have target knobs and sunshade for an extra $55. Are they worth...

I was thinkin' about getting some heavier springs and starline brass and trying out this 45 Super thing. This is for a 5" stainless slide, and I'm wondering about about a spring weight, because a stainless slide supposedly has more friction than blued steel. Any advice?

They printed a few letters of dissent against a David E. Petzel article that outlined a Gore gun-grabbing scheme. These individuals said (the letters were similar) "you have nothing to fear from registering firearms if you are law abiding", "I don't think any of my guns will ever be made...

I was looking around at the 14 & 15 rnd mags for a P14, and came to the realization that for around the price of one mag I could get a match grade barrel instead. Is anyone else out there wondering how stupid they'll feel if they buy a few mags for over $100 a pop and this coming year's...

Okay, after actually losing TWO nights of sleep over it, I've convinced myself to trade in the week-old Taurus 85 for a 445. I got the 85 so I'd have a CCW gun I'd actually CCW, but the thought kept creeping in "what if showing the creep the business end doesn't work and, heaven forbid, you...

I've got a question: do any sites exist that have actual performance data on handgun shootings, LE or not? I mean: male, 6', 250#, wearing sheepskin coat and denim shirt, 7 230gr 45ACP Hydrashocks, penetration x inches, expanded to x caliber, subject looked annoyed and shot back until shot...

I was looking for a target-grade long range rifle, and I also wanted to add a 30-06 to the collection. After looking at several site with a rifle discussion board of some kind, the majority opinion was that the 308 was more accurate due to the easier pressure push in its shorter case. Okay, I...

Has anybody out there conducted or found any good articles on flechette tests? I've seen a few sources that sell the darts w/ wads that you load yourself, for about $40 a box of 25. Pricey, but no worse than buying bismuth or tungsten come duck season. I'm curious about the pattern...

How many other people out there noticed that if Gore had carried his home state (worth 11 Electoral Votes) he would have 271 Electoral Votes and the Presidency? What scares me is that he now has nothing to lose by cheating- his career is over one way or another if he loses! Think about it: how...

A few years ago, before I learned to ignore certain things the wife suggested, I traded in a 20" Mossberg stainless on a "more practical" 22 rifle. Now that I have begun my quest to replace all such "non-practical" firearms traded away or sold, the stainless mossberg is high on the list...

As you may guess, Gore is not overly popular among those of us in the military. I was talking to one of my co-workers about the candidates, and, with a straight face, he told me that the most imporatnt things to him were abortion rights and the environment. This, coming from someone who brags...

After owning and shooting a stainless P14 and GP100 for a few years, without carrying them more than once or twice (they're heavy buggers), I got to looking for a pistol I would actually carry, so off to the local gunstore I went, intending to walk out with a Glock 26/27/33. I picked up the...

I've been hunting in Georgia my whole life, and don't intend to ever move. My wife, mom, and sister all like to travel to Europe, which leaves me planning huntin trips for me, dad, and brother. What are good areas to look for outfitters for game like mountain goat, sheep, mule deer, elk, etc...
