  1. Might be time to bring back punt guns.
  2. How effective molded plugs are depends on good impressions. You want open jaw and as deep/long canals as you can stand. Even then sometimes they are not perfect. Good labs allow free remakes. If you get a set and have it issues, get them remade.
  3. To effectively use a gun for defense, you need time/space. Open carry alerts anyone who wants your gun that it’s there, so if they simply get close to you, it’s not usable. Imho better to be concealed.
  4. As it’s just a web crawler now, it is often obvious when articles are ai generated as it usually does not contain specific data. Its generality’s and summaries.
  5. Low pressure loads with fast powders are hard to get right. Both GRT and quickload do not work at those speeds and pressures. Really need to use older data and a chronograph to have any chance of working up something. I did two loads for subsonic 400/500g trap door loads and found 5744 was a decent powder. Even then I had to do a load per barrel. Different mfg had different speeds by quite a bit.
  6. New shooter, first match. Never had a shotgun off that far and I have quite a few. Shot 12-18” high. Added spacers to get the length of pull longer and it shot much better.
  7. I have shot stages where they had to fall. Was common for our local shoots. If it didn’t fall keep shooting, went through most of a box of ammo until I figured out I had to aim at the ground instead of the target. Would have much preferred to take a miss.
  8. Probably like with rifles, most are 16 1/4. Add just a little bit extra to make sure. The shockwave is interesting as it’s really built to fit in a loophole. Hence the forward strap to ensure it’s a two handed weapon, not a pistol. Also oal is long enough that it’s not a sbs, yet it’s not a shotgun as it’s not shoulder fired. Someone really read the regulations and then built something to fit.
  9. It’s probably taking money out of their pockets.
  10. Security strong enough to prevent such an event needs to be quite strict, probably more than most are willing to put up with. Also standing around and watching for a once in a lifetime event is pretty boring and hard to keep people motivated, not to mention expensive. Imho a cost of living in a free society. Now with that said, our current political climate is devolving to be pretty lawless. Between covid and politicians ignoring the laws they don’t like, people are being a lot less civil than they used to be. It’s going to get worse.
  11. So glad I left Colorado. I wonder how the law treats concealed carry and having normal capacity firearms? The 2013 magazines ban had a grandfather clause and was also ignored by everyone. To be grandfathered you had to have had it in your possession prior to July 1, 2013. Wondering if it applies to non residents.
  12. Considering I get by with win 7 with no issues, most home users probably care less about the change. Business will be different.
  13. As someone who has owned an EV and owns a manual transmission truck, it’s a dumb idea. I don’t even like paddle shifters on an automatic. It simply doesn’t work the same as a manual transmission. The transmission isn’t strong enough and will shift on its own to keep from breaking. what ford should do in bring back a diesel 3/4 ton with a 6 speed manual. That won’t ever happen.
  14. Reading the dissent, the judges said magazines are not arms, so not protected. Looking for a way to not follow bruen.
  15. Provided no force was used in those crimes, I might be ok with that. If you committed a car jacking, home invasion, nope.
