      All Bird Hunters Must Read

      Good for her. Sometimes an animal needs to be put down. Bonus points for taking care if it herself.

      UPDATE: Copper Fouling

      I use mine from my cell phone. Besides finding excessive copper fouling, I've also found a carbon ring on one of my rifles, and some weird shiny black hard-to-remove fouling that I think came from some black colored powder coated bullets that I bought, in a sbr barrel. The borescope is also...

      C&R and the banned list

      Or you might end up with a weapon that has a body on it from sometime between when you claimed to have acquired it and when you actually did. Not very likely but not impossible. . .

      CZ 457 Varmint, or Trick Out my 10/22

      This. If you want a tricked out 10/22 you'll probably end up replacing everything except the receiver and possibly the bolt anyway. So just buy those, and, if you don't want to keep the Deluxe, sell it on to fund part of the build.

      Tennessee legislature passes bill to arm teachers; leftist lose their minds

      Never too early to start thinning the herd. . . . But, yah, I don't feel like listening to more crying mothers whining about how their young hoodlum was "turning his life around" if it can be helped. Sometimes it can't. I'm all for any teacher that wants to being able to have a gun at school...

      Air Marshals now too. Not on every flight, but more than token numbers.

      Tennessee legislature passes bill to arm teachers; leftist lose their minds

      I seem to recall a reason Christian schools in TN might be especially interested. . .

      Tennessee legislature passes bill to arm teachers; leftist lose their minds

      Would probably like the teacher to verify who's coming through the door before shooting. Also, maybe part of the training should focus on how a 5'2" 135 lb teacher keeps an enraged 6'6" 270 lb thug student from taking her gun away from her without shooting him (if possible.) Not that I would...

      Tennessee legislature passes bill to arm teachers; leftist lose their minds

      Hey, give teachers something to do in the summer when school's out. Should be paid, though, or give them a bump in salary if they carry.

      3rd Circuit Case - Range v Atty General Non-Violent Misdemeanor as a Prohibitor

      Federal law. ATF Form 4473 question 21(d) specifies conviction for a Felony or "any other crime" (e.g. a misdemeanor) for which you  could have been sentenced to more than 1 year in prison. So this depends on the max sentence for the state in which one was convicted.

      Use Pinned Gas Blocks Exclusively?

      I haven't had an issue with set screw gas blocks with a dimpled barrel. I have a "dimpling" jig for this (and a very hard drill bit) for barrels that aren't pre-dimpled. I usually only dimple one hole directly under the gas port. A drop of rocksett for each set screw and gtg. I try to use new...

      9mm case explosion with Gen 3 G34

      I "retire" my 9mm brass after 2 firings by reloading it a third time and putting it in my "stockpile." As others have said, lots of 9mm brass out there. In fact, right now I only reload Winchester brass. I trust other brass, e.g. Federal Blazer, but it seems to get beat up more, so I've just...

      10mm

      Sounds like a capable cartridge. I hear dudes in Alaska are carrying 10mm for bear defense.

      Unrelenting Fighter Jet traffic

      Pointed our an Osprey when driving my kid to school today (about 7:15.) I hadn't realized they were "un-grounded."
