Anybody have a recommendation, in NOVA, for a gunsmith/shop to do a barrel replacement? Preference centered around the Warrenton, Gainesville, Haymarket area. Willing to go a bit farther afield if needed. Not looking for world-record setting work; just solid workmanship.

Oh yeah. Remington bolt.

Burris 3X, but is on deck to be replaced with a Leupold M8-4X EER

Cognitive dissonance- simultaneously believing you can't take down the U.S. government without nukes and F-15's; and that it was almost done with bare hands and a viking hat.

The trial of Derek Chauvin, the police officer charged with the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, began this week. Andrew Branca, of The Law of Self Defense (book and blog), is covering the trial over at Legal Insurrection. He discusses the trial from the viewpoint of a lawyer, which provides a ...

Anything across state lines, it will have to go though a FFL to be legal.

Right-handed bolt actions are possible, but slow. Handguns with safeties... really need a lefty safety. On handguns, right-handed magazine releases and slide releases are usually easy to use left handed. On rifles, right-handed magazine releases and slide releases are often (but not always) clumsy t...

I would think that: Follow appropriate safety rules at all times Orient firearm using suitable, stable stance and grip. Align sighting device with target Engage trigger with minimal disruption to sight alignment Follow through properly on discharge, managing recoil and cycling action as needed Shoul...

Very convincing and articulate young lady with her #walkaway video. I'm not even halfway through, and I decided to share it! https://youtu.be/flp7gKg5G4E Shout out to The Powerline Blog for pointing me to it. Their comments are worth reading too. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2020/10/georgi...

Hard to believe it has been 31 years since Tiananmen Square, today.

And my memory had totally forgot that it was the same year as the Berlin Wall coming down. Time seems to have separated them mentally.

Well, I am feeling glad that I don't live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area any more!

This virus, while a serious concern, isn't the plague that it's being hyped up to be. Recently, I was reading a couple of things that suggested that "normal" deaths (for example, a fatal heart attack) have been falsely reported as Covid-19 fatalities. If this is true, of course, then we r...

I'm pretty sure the gun shop workers deal with a pretty steady stream of 'igits, under more normal circumstances anyway.

I've heard the "French Arcanes" were an experimental round and haven't been made for 50 years. Does anyone know of any documentation about the "French Arcanes"? It's for my curiosity, and give me proof to how crazy these law writers are. I've seen some mention in an old ammo art...

Well... try them out! Post your scores and see if anyone can beet them!

FWIW. During the recent flurry of activity, I ended up on the email list of the Virginia Constitutional Conservatives. I don't know much about them, except that they came down on the right side in the gun ban. From their emails, they are offering some classes in political activism. In Winchester: ht...
