The Gun Thread

[HealthAndHappiness]

I always wondered why the AR-10 was that much bigger and heavier than the AR-15.... Ruger has since proven that the 7.62 (308) can be chambered in a smaller rifle... basically the same size as the AR-15...

Given that fact, the only reason for going to the 5.56 would be the ability to carry more ammo.

I've always thought that the Russians had a better compromise in the 7.62X39... quite a bit more power than the 5.56, but still about the same in the "ammo carrying" department.

I looked for a durability test and found this article.

PRAYER REQUEST:

Australia elections are tomorrow, March 7.
The elr marksman I feature frequently for his amazing skill has an appeal that I'm sharing here and in the prayer forum. Please pray that the evil criminals in office will be expelled and replaced with liberty minded leaders

I finally got a chance to try my handloads in my M1 carbine (1944 Inland) I made the necessary tweaks to the rear sight, to keep it from drifting around, and, for an 81yr old rifle, with my almost 71yr old eyesight, it does pretty good at 50 yards....

Welp, I tried facebook for the first time. I lasted 4 days before they banned me because I was talking about shooting birds with a pellet gun.

Its kinda funny how you have to report people that post ugly photos before they do anything but if you mention guns in some obscure group they go 1984 on you.

I won't be back.

I wish you well. Its funny how you can't talk about guns but if you watch tv its like 10 guns shown per second.

Fair point. I’m member of a FB group about guns, and the mods have been forced to make all kinds of ridiculous rules for the members. It’s like a minefield. One wrong word and you’re out.

That's gotta be way up there with the heaviest recoiling shoulder mounted small arms. He has a good video explaining how he mitigates the recoil in different ways to be manageable. If you do a search with that key term on his channel, it should come up.

What's funny is how loud the target gongs when he hits close. It must be a bunch of rocks kicking up from the ground hitting it.

This kid is a pretty good shot. Hitting flying targets and sitting ones with a shotgun but seeing a teen farm kid to be that good is pretty fun too watch.
