...and even spears for some odd reason

Well that settles it, I'm going to buy a spear and carry it with me everywhere.

If you haven't already seen it, this guy has done a lot of testing and posts the videos of his results. It started with seeing what calibers will go through an interior wall and has now grown to a pretty big site...

Had a great discussion at work today that started with "silencers are legal?" That then turned into a large pro-guns/pro-self defense discussion and the vulnerabilities of not being able to carry when you go grab a chili dog at Ben't Chili Bowl.

This is the ONLY gun forum that didnt have a thread like this descend into "9MM IS GAY YOU NEED .50 TO KILL PPLZ AT 80 YARDS!11!111 THATS WHY I DUAL WIELD THE DEAGLES!11!!"

Excellent Observation; though it would be cool to dual wield desert eagles.

Article IV, Section 2:

The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.

Look familiar?

I agree we shouldn't have to ask for permission but we are where we are so we gotta take whatever we can at this point. I read somewhere that the bill already had close to 250 supporters in the house and some of those are dems. I think we could pull it off in the senate but it's going to be close.

So If I have 3 bathrooms, can I make 3 times as much?

I've had their GP100 357 for awhile and it has been very reliable.

I used the same site when I moved up from Texas and I just made sure the guns was locked in the back when I was in "unfriendly" territory.

In case you haven't heard, there' a bill floating around to make reciprocity automatic across all 50 states. This has come up before, and failed; suggest you contact your representatives... http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/09/13/house-weighs-bill-to-make-gun-permits-valid-across-state-lines/?tes...

Yeah I agree, a .22 can be very effective and I sometimes carry my little .22 during the summer months.

Without the kinetic energy, no one is going to get stopped. Unless they just get scared and run away without any shots being fired (which is always a possibility).

All handguns suck!

Obviously he hasn't felt the power of a 44 Mag firing a Garrett Hammerhead +P round; 1436 lbs of pressure in your face!

That's an interesting study; funny that the 22 and 44 mag had similar stats. I remember back when I took physics I studied a formula that would determine stopping power. Here's the formula that will determine the stopping power (foot pounds) of every gun and bullet you own. Stopping Power = (bullet ...

I was stationed in Germany; one my guys came into my office to tell me the first building was hit and my initial response was that it was a terrorist strike. All the news websites were bogged down so I wandered off to another office to see the TV. We were in Threatcon Delta by the time the second to...

I am running an AR15 buyback program; currently paying 10% of street value. PM me if you want to make your house "safer."

Actually, two of the "victims" were cops.

Apparently NYC's gun laws aren't doing any good (no surprise there)...
