New rifle is lighter and hits farther and harder. It is designed to penetrate better body armor troops have been coming against. I'd like to know what you vets think of it. Thanks! Army's new machine gun will blast like battle tanks | Fox News

Music is an amazing thing. When people of different societies cannot get along on any other level the music seems to bridge the gap. I love listening to Middle Eastern, Oriental, South American, just about anything. Like others, I have difficutly liking rap because of much of the content but I...

I am thinking about designing a lamp, special nightstand or headboard that can be a stealth hiding place for a SD weapon. Secret doors that open easily but you have to know the trick. Just brainstorming. Or are such things already on the market? Edit: now that I think about it buying one...

Absolutely! Every time you give the government more freedom to invade your life you lose more of your own. And coffee freedom should be in the bill of rights. :)

We shot 100 rounds of Winchester 130 grain Full Metal Jackets and shot just 5 of the Critical Defense. That was about all we could accomplish with just the 1/2 hour before quiting time and 4 people sharing 2 guns, ( we rented another 38 SPL from the range). It is easy to see that all of us need...

Just got back from the range with my wife, daughter, and 14 year old granddaughter. We rented another SW 38 SPL to go with the one I just bought and spread out to two booths. We had a great time. None of us were accurate, many more rounds and maybe some instruction needs to happen before we...

I had it easy. My future father-in-law pre-approved of me. I was going to his church and singing in a Gospel group. His daughter was going with fellers he didn't approve of. He asked her, "Why don't you get to know Gary?" She said, "I don't like him, he looks too old." He said, "Yup, you'll fly...

Got 'em. Good value. Thanks!

A good son-in-law is a treasure these days. A man that acts and thinks like a man and not like a woman wanna-be or an emotionally stunted self-centered pig is golden. Oops, sorry. Kinda let the anger out there.

Thanks for the warm greetings, folks! I am now looking in to buying some cheap but safe ammo in bulk to fire through my 38 spec. for our learning/break-in period. I only have 75rounds at this point: 50 fmj's and 25 Harnady Criticals. Any suggestions?

This is my first post other than my introduction. After reading posts here I think you guys would have mercy on someone who is greener than a sea-sick frog. :) I have not yet shot my new S&W 38 Special 642-2. I have cleaned the gun. I am planning on going to the range today with my daughter and...

Greetings to all! I am 63, semi-retired and soon moving to Dade City, Florida. I live with my wife, daughter, and 2 granddaughters. After a great deal of weighing out philosophies and priorities I purchased a S&W 38 Special 642.2 the other day at Bass Pro Shop. I have never owned a gun of any...
