      Squib

      I started reloading a few years ago with a single stage loader, hand weighing each charge. I caught myself loading a bullet with no powder, so decided to idiot proof the process as much as I could. The best way I could think of was to weigh each cartridge when I was all done. I bet I missed at...

      Please people, don’t give MGA good reasons when they return

      Reckless endangerment? Whatever. He should be required to retake safety training. That bullet could have ricocheted and killed 29 people. The emotional damage is apparent just listening to the girl with the mask, even though you can't tell what she's saying. "Mmmff...rlf..gbbl...eekrlcnt!"...

      DC 20 round carry limit repealed - Thank you St Thomas

      This video by Washington Law explains why they dropped the 20 round limitation.

      One in the chamber

      Pros: The heroes in Hollywood NEVER carry one in the chamber (not counting Alec Baldwin). They dialogue with the bad guy for at least 5 minutes at point blank range. When the bad guy says something that makes the hero mad, THEN and only then do they chamber a round. It just seems so much cooler...

      What are "assault pistols" anyway?

      9X19 MM Concealed Carry Ammunition Choices

      That's good. I wouldn't want to pollute the earth while stopping a perp, or give him lead poisoning.

      Shooting a pistol at 100 yards

      I used to have a 12 inch steel target set at about 350 yards. It actually did not look difficult to hit using a 9mm with 5 inch barrel and open sights, but I was always surprised how far off the bullets would land outside the target. It occurred to me later that this could be due to the poor...

      Can I defend myself with a handgun that has a magazine that Carrie’s more than 10 rounds?

      The answer to this is simple. If you have a 15 round magazine and have to use your weapon in self-defense, simply stop shooting after you've fired 10 times.

      What to look for in a barrel? .556 14.5" AR15

      I don't know of any barrel/brands to avoid, except some (e.g. Noveske) that are way overpriced. If you're not going for match grade, any barrel will work fine and you don't need stainless steel, so chromoly will work fine, and theoretically lasts longer. It really comes down to how much you want...

      Let's Talk About Bear Defense for an 82-Year Old.

      Exactly. Alaskan guides have been moving to 10 mm with hard cast lead bullets for grizzly bears. So a well-placed .357 should easily do the trick on black bears, and a poorly placed .44 magnum (which was 3+ pounds) will not. Which is why I don't go with the "bigger is better" argument.

      UPS Truck Robbed at Gunpoint - Annapolis

      The same way our newest supreme court justice can't define what a Woman is. It's not politically correct to notice things like that.

      It cost my Wife and I $7626.00 to legally Carry a Handgun in 44 States!

      I don't see the point in doing this. As soon as you get them all, you'll have to start renewing them. So you'll probably spend another $6000 every few years.

      Source of dried beans

      I've been doing this for years and know exactly why you don't want to buy 1 pound bags. You'll save much more money buying in bulk. You can get four gallon square plastic buckets from restaurants to store them in, usually for free. One 4g bucket will hold 25 pounds of beans, which is perfect...

      Officer involved shooting in AA

      Why don't they use a tranquilizer gun instead of taser on uncooperative perps? It works on bears, lions, elephants.
