    Serious discussion about gun control that would actually work.

    I vote PMcLaine for president! I get so wound up about this stuff. It was/is a tragedy but as has been stated six ways from Sunday already, law abiding citizens suffer for the criminals. More laws won't help. And as tragic as this event was, lets us not loose sight of the fact that firearms of...

    Range Report First time shooting a bolt gun

    And don't forget the value of dry firing. Get in position. Get used to relaxing your body. Control your breathing. Squeeze the trigger. I was told the trigger break should be a "surprise" and by that, it means DONT anticipate the trigger break and recoil. That will cause you to pull shots. If...

    Gunsmithing Book on Suppressor Designs/Theory/Construction?

    You could also try the local library- they may be able to pull patents without the huge fees to pull patents normally... That will also tell you what is patented design-wise. Note drawings in patents are typically very vague, not to scale and have no dimensions. I also saw a small book on...

    It's time ban all weapons.

    But I think the deadliest weapon on earth is the automobile. More deaths by that than anything else. Should we we ban the cars?

    I have zero clue about pistol reloading

    I did a lot of 9mm, .40S&W .38 and .357. Some for me and some to sell at the range my dad and I were running for our club. I have a piggy back II for the rockchucker II. A couple pointers- Csbelas sells a book for each caliber. One book; one caliber. I have one for .308. If you are doing...

    If I can't have a fully functional light sabre, I'm not interested. I could certainly make a sweet looking handle for one, just never did it.

    So, Gun Show This Weekend: What Should I Panic Buy?

    Grab a dozen of those stupid bump stocks. I could see those being banned. (Good riddance as far as I'm concerned- I think they're garbage)

    Rifle Help! Can't make a decision

    Option 1 but do more research on your optic. Some good suggestions here so I won't muddy the waters but there are a lot of new and used scope options.

    What zero? 25, 50 or 100?

    Based on that article, I should clarify- The 300 yard zero in my case would be with the scope set to "3" which is the 300 yard setting. I would not set "zero yards" at 300 yards, in case that wasn't clear...

    What zero? 25, 50 or 100?

    It's not a benefit per se, but rather where that scope/rifle system is typically zeroed. The USO (Unertl copy) scope has come ups in the elevation turret, and it is (was) zeroed at 300 yards. It can be zeroed anywhere from 100 to 1000 but I'd just as soon do it the way they did it. It sort of...
