      No Confidence?

      I saw on the news tonight that the FOP is doing a vote of no-confidence about the prosecutor and the courts. While I agree with them, I have no idea what it means. What will be the result? And how can you vote no-confidence about an entire court system?

      S&W Victory Model 38 Special

      I've got my dad's WWII issue S&W Victory Model 38 Special. We took it to the range the other day, and after about 40 rounds, it simply seized up. I couldn't pull the hammer back, couldn't pull the trigger, couldn't even push the cylinder release. After fiddling with it for a while, it seemed...

      Questions for the AR-15 gurus

      Couple of quick questions that I'm sure a lot of you can answer: I just got a new AR-15 BCG, and the bolt seems awfully tight in the carrier. If I stand it on the bolt, the carrier isn't close to sliding down. I've checked for burrs or ridges, but it all looks OK. Is this normal for a new...

      Odd statement from police

      They are showing the bodycam footage of the Lafayette officer shooting the other day, and a statement from their police chief that there was "no negligence or carelessness" involved. However, if you watch the footage, one officer is following the officer-victim out a door with his handgun aimed...

      .45 HST NON +P

      I need to replenish my supply of HST .45, NOT +P. It's one that I've tested in all my pistols, and know that it feeds well, but one of them is an older 1911 that I worry about feeding +P into. However, all of the HST I've found locally is +P. Anyone locally (Indy southside, preferably)...

      Can't edit one of my posts in the classifieds

      I have sold an item that I had posted in the non-firearms section of the classifieds, but am unable to edit the post for some reason (perhaps because it is too old??). I don't want to bump the thread to mark it sold. The subject is "Micromoog." If some fine admin could edit the text to show...

      WTS: Hartke Bass Amp

      I've got to sell this. My band broke up, and at my age, I'm starting to think I probably won't join another gigging rock band. And since I'm not in a band now, this amp is entirely too much for an apartment bedroom. It's a Hartke HA3500 head. 350W, graphic EQ, compressor, tube and solid...

      WTS: Micromoog

      Early 80's MicroMoog, in excellent condition. $300 (<- NOTE price drop) I recently cleaned the keyboard contacts, and they are all in good condition. The ribbon controller is still in perfect shape, and there are no issues with it at all. There are two cosmetic flaws. The metal "badge"...

      Etymology

      Why does one "rack" a slide?? Why not actuate the slide? Or operate the slide? Or even manipulate the slide. One could even SLIDE the slide. But "rack?" From where did this term come?

      Whatever happened to . . . .

      Has anyone heard from Frank_n_stein lately? I realized the other day that I hadn't seen a message from him in quite a while.

      Help Me Understand

      While looking at the Armscor web site, I came across this chart of their ammo: Caliber It appears that they make both .223 and 5.56mm ammo. Comparing the .223 and 5.56mm 55gr ammo, both have the same bullet weight, and the same BC. The 5.56 has a higher muzzle velocity, and chronos higher at...

      Don's Guns is once again asking for stricter gun laws

      I see on Fox59 that Don, of Don's Guns is once again asking for stricter gun laws. Did he recently get in trouble again, and agreed to cooperate with the government rather than be prosecuted? Did he get an offer he couldn't refuse from a group connected with Chicago? Did he have some...

      Peculiar Observation

      Or maybe it's just Tinfoil Hat Time. I was in Gander Mountain today to pick up some of the .223 which was on sale, and while looking around the firearms department, I happened to notice that the majority of people in that department were of middle eastern origin, in groups of 2 or 3, and all...

      Weaver rail that mounts on AR15 handle

      I need a rail to mount on a standard AR15 to mount a scope. I know that there are several makers of these (Tasco being one of them). I figured I'd see if anyone here had one before I bought something sight-unseen online. Alternatively, if anyone has one of the Colt scopes with integral AR15...
