    Are these a scam?

    Loading for some black powder revolvers that I’ve acquired conversion cylinders for. Trying to keep pressures low, cowboy load type of thing. I may play around with black powder. Guess the next thing I need to get is a chrono so I can check to see where I’m at with it.

    Are these a scam?

    I'm trying to purchase some Trail Boss powder. All of the big carriers, (Mid Way, Natchez, Brownells, etc.) all show no stock. (And yes, I know about the issue of shortages and change of manufacturer). Does anyone have info on if this is actually being manufactured again? What i've found is...

    Chicago rapper shot 64 times outside of jail right after release

    Maybe the NYC police can take some training from these guys. They hit their target, (many times) and apparently no bystanders.

    We open a fireproof gun safe after a house fire - See what’s inside!

    Wonder if those silicone impregnated gun socks will help lessen the water damage by repelling the water, or making the water damage worse by retaining whatever water made it by.

    F/S Hornady LNL AP Ammo Plant + tons of extras. Setup for 9mm

    Wish this had been listed a month and a half earlier. I just bought this press new, minus the case feeder and bullet feeder. Will add those items later I guess. Really good press, I’ve done well over 1000 rounds of 9 mm on mine so far, and no issues. Even without the case and bullet feeders...

    Gun Regrets | I never get lucky

    One shot one kill. Female cop begs murder suspect not to shoot her. Backup officer fires one round.

    Why did it take the second cop so long? Was he in the car that the dash cam was from,or just arrived later in a second car? Why was his weapon still holstered as approached the car with her definitely in distress. Several seconds lost in response time as he assessed the scene and pulled his...

    300 blackout for deer?

    Too much stuff to read through here, but to answer the O.P.’s question, YES. I took three deer last year with .300 blk. One shot each, first one went down 10 yards from where it was it at, about a 70 yard shot in dark pines. Next one was an 80 yard shot with deer on a run, went down after...

    Comey Disaster: Agent Who Quit Over Rigged Hillary Investigation Heads to Congress

    I’m sure he’ll shoot himself in the back of the head twice, like Vince Foster did, prior to testifying before Congress. There will be a note stating how distraught he is that Hillary lost the election and he just can’t go one like this.

    FBI raids office of Trumps longtime Lawyer

    The FBI has basically gone rogue in my opinion. The upper hierarchy of it needs to be fired, and brought up on charges of conspiracy to commit treason. Mueller, Rosenstein, McCabe, and the rest are all traitors! Sessions needs to get his head out of his ass, and take control of his DOJ, and...

    Syracuse student claimed to have ‘skills of a school shooter’ in Snapchat video

    If the Florida shooting had not just happened, and otherwise the facts were the same, I doubt anything would have become of this. I believe it would have been ignored, or at the least downplayed and would have gotten no to very limited law enforcement attention. Just my 2 cents.
