    Scionics M40

    I'm thinking this looks like a Scionics equipped M40. I've not seen this photo before. That must be Werbell in the background pointing? https://www.historicalfirearms.info/post/142141720929/sionics-incorporated-the-mac-10-in-the-early

    Trapdoor Windage Instructions

    I thought some of you might like to see this set of Army drift/windage instructions from maybe the 1880s? Click the picture and it blows up to full size. Trapdoors really are not my thing, but I presume they are for a M1873 or more likely an M1882 with the improved rear sight. I stole these from...

    $150 Million Jewel Robbery at the Flying J Truck stop on I-5?

    This got virtually no air time but it's one on the biggest jewelry thefts ever. Apparently the 2 guards pull the truck over at the Flying J on the Grapevine on I-5 in the middle of the night and go inside wearing their pistols and don't come back outside for a long time. How much time do you...

    Coyotes +6, Martha Stewart 0

    Six "large and aggressive" coyotes had dinner last night on Martha and ate six of Martha Stewart's peacocks including Blue Beauty. Martha must had them penned up, stupid. Peacocks are good on security detail on a large place if allowed to run free and roost, although they do scream way too much...

    That's a Pretty Sniper-y Shooter

    Interesting shot taken, with an interesting toy. The guy seems to intentionally shoot high, above the tank, to get an air burst. What is it? Russian made? Kills w/concussion? Do we have these? Links to footage before and after (Note: on the "after" link, you have to also click "view" because...
