    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Well, you can get M193 in Winchester White Box. If they don't have it at Big 5, Walmart may well have it. It think its usually labeled Q3131 whereas Q3131A is M855. In my opinion the fragmentation you see with the M193 is crucial for a marginal round like .223. You're correct in that you...

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Well, on both sides there are some issues to think about. I think extended point-counterpoint is not conducive to reasonable discussion, so I'll leave it at that. Regarding the Great Britain analogy I drew earlier, for those of you interested in an historical examination of guns, law, and...

    pot vs booze

    It's legal in Alaska to possess up to four ounces of marijauna, or a few plants. Alaska seems like a nice state.

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Britain instituted a system like this sometime around WWI. The problem is that the Home Office secretly changed the conditions under which the permits were issued. By 196... 9 (I believe) the official policy was that no one had any valid reason to own a handgun. This change was made entirely...

    Guns: are they necesary for home defense or a public menace?

    Guns are used for defense about 50 times (or more) as often as they're used to kill anyone, according to studies done by Kleck and others. Additionally, those studies also indicate about 500,000 more defensive uses per year than uses in violent crime.That makes the answer pretty obvious, in my...

    Duck And Cover?

    It's not like he left and never came back. He still had influence, he still dropped by. It was not at all uncommon to see him in the Moderator forum helping to form the forum rules. Although Kreegle was more distanced, he was still a presence, and still a counter-weight to Killian's insanity...

    Duck And Cover?

    It wasn't that it was boring, it was just that Killzig didn't like it. Every now and then he would spaz out and do something stupid like delete the general discussion forum, or appoint people as mods who probably shouldn't have been, or even write new rules with the idea that the mods would...

    DAC is up again..

    If he didn't answer prior to banning you, he probably won't answer now. Let it go, Goose, you can still post here.

    DAC closing doors

    I, too am a little confused at this turn of events. It does seem to me that it was not planned, at least not openly. Did Killzig and Kreegle have a fight about Zig's flakiness maybe?

    Great performance.

    Moore is an odd creature. He takes liberties in pretty much all his work, then he'll fervently deny having lied, but admits that his works are more 'editorial' than factual. He says that readers/viewers have a responsibility to know his politics and understand his perspective before viewing...

    More Trinity Concept Art

    The .45 Liberator was an American made gun dropped on the French because we hate them. The idea was that it was something small and easily concealed that could be used to acquire other weapons from unsuspecting Germans. It was just a single-shot pistol made entirely from stamped metal parts...
