Only if you don't care if you're hitting anything. Proper 'assault position' would be with the buttstock secured under the armpit, and the other arm on the forearm controlling against muzzle rise. Even that is very rarely used these days and I don't believe it is taught in the US military any more. Most common these days is firing from the shoulder. Proper shooting of an automatic weapon from the shoulder is done with the right foot forward (for right-handed shooters) and leaning forward fairly aggressively. This puts much of your upper body mass behind the weapon to counter-act recoil.

I cannot imagine the misuse of power that would occur if this is controlled by the government!! The company may have to go underground to prevent great evil!

Tannerite is literally a BLAST!!! Do yourself a favor and call your local law enforcement first. If you have anyone within 1/2 mile they will hear it and they are likely to call the sheriff. Remember that it is velocity that detonates the targets. You will waste targets by shooting at them with .22s and pistols.

Basic member. While I believe in the NRA and they do many good things, I won't give them any more than a basic membership until they actually work at REPEALING an existing gun law.

Amazing how when politicians are running for office they all talk about 'working for you', 'serving the public', etc. But once they are in office, they act like we work for them. That's a sure sign that they need to be voted out.

Remington serial numbers are not reliable for dating. If the barrel is original to the shotgun, the barrel date code will give a reliable date. Remington Dates of Manufacture

Many industries have similar mark-ups. But you also have to look at the costs of carrying inventory. In the case of mattresses, a store has to have a lot of 'demonstrators' which are not often sold to the public for hygienic reasons. and every time a new model comes out, that is another mattress which the store must buy and lose money on. Think about how many greeting cards you see in display racks. Would you ever buy one which doesn't look right? Think how many get dropped, stepped on, bent, stolen, etc. All of that is pure loss for the seller. And then there are cards which just plain never sell. There is nobody in the chain that is making a 'killing' except on those rare occasions when something is trendy. Everything is subject to supply and demand. The trick is in making sure that they match as evenly as possible for maximum profit. If you sell 1000 of something for $100 with a $10 profit, you make $10,000 dollars. If you sell 10,000 with $5 profit, you've made $50,000 dollars. Most people would much rather manufacture and sell more of an item at a slightly lower per-item profit.

Cordite is an extremely stable compound, unless exposed to high temperatures. It's basically a form of nitrocellulose (guncotton). A good amount of the .303 surplus that was sold recently had obviously been stored in a pretty hot warehouse (or in the sun). Most gunpowder will have the same limitations. Temperature fluctuations are bad, but heat is much worse than anything else. A freezing, thawing cycle can cause powder grains to fracture which can cause uneven burning.

Let's see, in Iraq they found thousands of nerve gas artillery shells, some filled, some not. They found machinery used to refine Uranium. They found a facility that Saddam buried in the sand that was filled with refining materials and had radioactive traces. There was the lab producing anthrax. Iraqi scientists and military officers have all said that Saddam had programs working on chemical, biological, and radioactive munitions. Additionally, there has been a lot of captured documentary evidence supporting the claim that during the initial stages of the war, Saddam moved a lot of material to Iran. Saddam used chemical weapons on Iran during the Iran-Iraq war, he gassed the Kurds periodically, and tested weapons on dissidents. How much evidence do you NEED?

I have WWI dated .30-06 and .303 rounds that still shoot just fine. Storage is the key. Cool and dry storage will keep ammo stable. It sounds like your cases are corroded. Bad enough corrosion can cause case failures and is dangerous.

Mine is a 9mm and has well over 2000rds through it. Never missed a beat, and still going strong. Star is one of the best manufacturers around. They suffer from the bad reputation of other Spanish firearms manufacturers that dates back to the 1920s and 1930s when poor quality Spanish handguns flooded the US market. Factory magazines are expensive and can be hard to find. Aftermarket magazines should be reserved for practice only as they are much less reliable.

However, many of them WERE taken overseas by soldiers during WWI and WWII. You could do that back then. They are fun little revolvers to shoot. A .36 round ball thumb-pressed on top of a 5gr charge of FFF black powder makes a nice plinking load. Be careful about the grips, they are relatively fragile now that they are 100 years old!

You get the fake antivirus from websites. Keep track of who you are visiting and let them know their site is infected. MalwareBytes is an excellent removal tool. Follow their instructions EXACTLY! I've had to do it repeatedly to remove everything from my son's PC. He goes to gaming sites which are particularly buggy. BTW, Mac users have no room to gloat. Lots of trojans out there for Macs now. Harder to find and remove, too.

Good game, but not so much that the Saints won, as the Vikings lost. The only thing that allowed the Saints to win was all those Viking turnovers at critical moments.

I am a bit bothered by the reference to non-carrying folks as 'sheep'. This is a dangerous mindset to allow yourself into. Those others at Wally World, Taco Hell, and other places you go are your friends, neighbors, and otherwise just (relatively) normal people. They attend your local churches, have kids in school, pay taxes, and many even vote. Getting a carry permit, firearm, and training is a pretty substantial investment in time, hassle, and money. Most people don't see it as being as useful as a driver's license, so they don't get one. Does this make them 'sheep'? Does this make them not worth helping if their lives are in jeopardy? As a Christian, I see it as my duty to help others when they need it. There is a difference between looking for trouble and being prepared for it. I carry for the same reason I have fire extinguishers. There are threats to my safety and the safety of others out there. And I prefer to be able to decide if my help is needed than stand by helplessly. If you had a fire extinguisher in your car and saw another car on the side of the road with flames licking from underneath, would you stop and help? I would, and have done so. I'm no 'hero'. But I hate the feeling of being helpless. THAT is why I carry.

A firing pin is typically hardened steel that is relatively brittle to shock other than from the tip. When you see a revolver firing pin that wiggles, the reason is to allow the firing pin to not hit the frame solidly. Some revolvers have a small spring, and some do not. As long as the firing pin cannot hit the frame and catch before firing the cartridge, I wouldn't worry about it. At some point, it was decided (by lawyers) that a frame-mounted firing pin with a firing pin blocking safety was safer than a hammer-mounted firing pin. That's why almost all revolvers now have frame-mounted firing pins.

Do NOT let that man get a three wolf moon t-shirt!!

I'm going to stand with Ramsey on this one. While I deplore treating children the way your examples show, I don't believe that a taxpayer-funded state program is the way to do it. The reason our Federal and State budgets are in the mess they are is because so many people have told our government to handle these problems. Government programs are NOT the answer. They rarely actually accomplish anything, and are typically 3-5 times more expensive than private programs. Are there no churches in your area with pre-K programs? I'll tell you what. I'll gladly donate $100 to a local church to help take in one of these kids. Get a couple more folks here to do the same and we've solved your problem. But I will fight you all the way against trying to use the power of government to steal my money to accomplish your goals.

Nikki is an amazing person. She was instrumental in getting the TN restaurant carry passed last year, and will be assisting us in getting the new and improved version passed this year. So many times we have seen the liberals use a tragedy to restrict our rights. Unfortunately, the fact is that every single tragedy like Nikki's makes the absurdness of disarmament more clear.

As usual, liberal media only works if you can suck in tax dollars like NPR.

Realistically, if the event is of a long duration, you are best off as part of a community. Food production without machinery is very labor-intensive. 5-10 people working on a farm can easily grow surplus food, while a single person will have much more limited choices and be more vulnerable to losing a significant portion of his crop to disease, insects, weather, etc. Besides, you've got to sleep sometime. Having extra eyes to watch your back will be critical. An additional factor is skill-sets. The more people, the greater the chance that someone will have the needed skills to deal with problems that arise. As far as joining a group, my advice would be to avoid it unless you know them VERY well. These groups tend to be obsessive and run by the same types that run home-owner's associations. IF the group has a pediatrician or emergency-room surgeon, suck it up and play nice!!!

Prvi Partizan ammo is made in the same factory that produced the Yugoslavian M75 ammo. It has an excellent reputation for consistency and accuracy. Most is in 196gr SP, but I've seen some 196gr FMJ. Also, you might try the FNM 8mm ammo. It's made in Portugal with a 196gr FMJ bullet. Also has an excellent reputation for accuracy. I have heard that recent production of this ammo is actually made by Prvi Partizan, but I don't know this is true. Both of these are brass-cased, Boxer-primed reloadable cartridges.

The Ultrastar is an excellent choice for concealed carry. Very ergonomic and reliable. They are pretty rare in the US as Star quit importing shortly after the introduction of the Ultrastar. Mags can be hard to find, so if it comes with spare mags, that's a plus.

GREAT IDEA!! Thanks!

As a long shot, he might try calling Century International Arms, Classic Arms, or SAMCO Global. They imported most of the K31s and might have a spare mag laying around. Another option is to keep looking on GunBroker in the hopes that one shows up.
