    Sidearms & Scatterguns Showing off!!

    Very impressive craftsmanship. That really gives the guns a very personal touch.

    We are our own worst enemy!!!

    I always find this to be a very interesting debate. That is, where along the spectrum do gun owners fall? What concessions and erosions of your Second Amendment right do you agree to, or at least don't challenge? Do you agree to restricting everyones' right to open carry? Or just not to open...

    Rifle Scopes Buying an under $600 scope?

    Tylerw02's advice seems like a good way to go. Likewise, if you chose the SWFA or Vortex you should be able to recoup most of your investment later (assuming you take care of the scope) if you want to sell it to upgrade.

    Using non lethal shot?

    Please don't misconstrue my post as legal advice, but if your concern is real then speaking to a licensed attorney in your state with knowledge of the applicable statutes and appellate law would seem highly advisable. Law libraries are full of appellate decisions interpreting statutes and...

    How about a WTF "Savage arms" call out!!!! Advice needed please

    I understand your anger and frustration as you cited the facts...(1) tech repeatedly telling you that you need a new barrel even after you tell him to simply send it back without repair; (2) the tech telling you that the crown is bad and that it won't shoot which turns out seemingly to be in...

    Strion HL led flashlight

    I have had a strion for years and it has served me well. I am looking to purchase a new one with the higher lumens and led. I saw one review indicating there may be overheating issues. If anyone has one can you give me your opinion/feedback. Thanks

    Spotting scope suggestions

    I just purchased a cheap (under $300) unit for the limited purposes of zeroing scope at 100 yards and seeing .308 holes at 100-300 yards range. Granted, even with my eyeglasses I don't have particularly great vision, but I am returning the scope after one try. I could see the .308 holes at 100...

    Doc signs off on Anderson 'Spider' Silva's return to training

    I don't know what Tibau consistently drops before his fights, but I do recall hearing on the UFC that Hendricks routinely cuts down about 45 pounds to make 170.

    Rifle Scopes Scope ring torque wrench reccomendations?

    I purchased a wheeler and I seems to have worked fine...recently mounted a new scope and zeroed it without any problem. And I certainly understand a strong reluctance to spend $100 to $150 for a tool that gets used very infrequently for most of us. I've also spoken with some longtime shooters...

    Effect of 20 MOA base

    For purposes of my understanding: IF my scope's mechanical zero just happened to be dead on at 100 yards when on a 0 MOA base and then I install a 20 MOA base wouldn't I have to adjust my scope down 20 MOAs to stay zeroed at 100 yards? Thanks for answers and explanations.

    Savage Axis .308 Extended Magazines?

    For those who have used them with a Savage model 10, how well do they work? Website says they have heard they work with the model 10 among others, but doesn't suggest they are designed for them specifically.

    Should college athletes get paid?

    It's been a long time--more than a decade--but my recollection of the TRUE numbers is that few if any sports programs at non D1 schools are profitable. Once you pay the cost of the scholarships, the construction cost of the stadium and its annual maintenance for labor and materials, salaries of...

    Should college athletes get paid?

    No. Obviously it's nothing more than my opinion, but my personal feeling is that the absolute foremost goal of colleges/universities is education of its students, not being a farm team or minor league or developmental league for professional sports' teams. If you don't like the deal being...

    Sonnen vs. Silva

    Based on Wanderlei being the primary aggressor, and Sonnen being relatively passive in his demeanor with arms folded, I think it was real emotion erupting. He seems like a very proud person, who is truly angry at Sonnen's personal barbs against him and Brazil. Had Sonnen been really taunting...
