    What's the Big Deal About that New Physics Discovery I Keep Hearing About?

    The mere fact that there are people who actually understand this stuff just pisses me off.:)

    Gunsmithing Remington build questions

    If you are going to have the action trued, it only makes sense to have a new barrel fitted and chambered at the same time. If nothing else, it will save you shipping costs. The rest, stock, trigger, optics, can be done as your budget allows. It will be difficult to find a better price for...

    Gunsmithing Any well known Machine Shops in South Florida???

    You could try Hansa Research in Miami. It's been some time since I used them, but the work was first class. If the original owner is still there, he is an engineer who has worked for NASA, and taught at UM.

    Gunsmithing Long Rifles Inc. OR Gunwerks

    Highly recommend Chad. Excellent work on a timely basis. You might also discuss chambering choices with him before you invest in a reamer. Best of luck with your build.

    25 years in LE

    Congratulations! When you think about all the Officers you knew who left after a few years, you realize what an accomplishment it truly is. My experience was the opposite of FN's. I found the years after reaching 25 more difficult due to knowing that I could leave at any time. But then again...

    Need advice for new/used economy car. *Update

    Ford, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia all offer a basic model which falls into your price range for a new car. Others may as well. If you can locate a 2013 model, you may be able to get a good deal right now as dealers look to move product to make room for new models. Or as suggested above, you could shop...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns H and K P30 trigger work

    There is no LEM conversion package available for the P30. If you have a da/sa version, converting to LEM is possible but will void the warranty. As noted above, grayguns is well respected for their trigger work. They offer a short reset carry package that reduces pull weight and reset for $365.00.

    Any weatherby gurus?

    They are completely different actions. The Vanguard is built on a standard Howa action to compete at a price point with Remington, Ruger, etc. The Mark V is Weatherby's proprietary multi lug action used on their top of the line rifles. I don't know for sure, but I would suspect that stock...

    Hunting & Fishing Why Guns and Ammo HATES the .308

    In my opinion, most if not all gun/hunting magazines are simply shills for their advertisers, and most articles are written for fudds who don't know any better. Unfortunately, articles like this only encourage said readers to run out and buy a 300 magnum so that they too can make those 800 yard...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Any revolver shooters? Show em

    I think those of us who started out with revolvers will always have a love for them. I still have my 40 year old model 67 duty weapon, as well as a number of other older S&W's. There really weren't many choices in semi autos other than 1911's or hi powers at that time, so revolvers, Smith or...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tactical handgun

    Personal experience with older Sigs from the 80's-90's, was very positive. The older guns were great. Since the change in management in the mid 2000's, the quality seems to be hit or miss. I believe an objective search will show that the new guns are not held in the same high regard as the older...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tactical handgun

    Sig quality is not what it used to be. Therefore, I would not recommend one. HK quality is still top notch. Either a USP or P30 would serve you well for your intended use. You should try to handle each and see which you prefer. The P30 has a more ergonomic grip, but I have both and don't find...

    Who has a watch they like?

    I have a number of expensive Swiss watches, (Rolex, Tag, etc). But I tend to be rough on watches, so my everyday watch for the past 20 years has been a Casio G-Shock. They will take a beating and continue to function with no problems. Casio makes a model that has most if not all of the features...

    AR- whitch one ?

    Colt, Daniel defense, and BCM all adhere to the Technical data specifications, and have models available in your price range. Any of these would be a good choice. Going with a basic model would allow you to purchase some accessories and magazines, and still stay within your budget. Building a...

    .260 Rem. Build

    Getting ready for my first precision rifle build. My question is, is there any real world difference between an 8 twist and a 8.5 twist barrel for use with the heavier projectiles (139-142gr)?
