Reasons To Build Your Own Rifle
From The Truth About Guns:
1. I made it. There are many like it and this one is mine. There’s a lot of pride involved in assembly followed by punching accurate, consistent holes at 100 yards. My little project also has never hiccupped after nearly 2,000 rounds through the thing. All of this stuff builds confidence and fluffs the ego.
Defense Distributed CEO Discusses Future
From Reason:
For Paloma Heindorff, who took over as head of the company last year after stints as director of development and vice president of operations, these innovations are an important part of keeping the powerful in check. “We’ve got to be developing technologies in the independent sector to be able to counterbalance the enormous control that the government has and the enormous access to information that corporations have,” she says.
A Defensive Rifle
From The Federalist:
Because self-defense is the primary reason Americans buy guns, including a million AR-15s every year, here are, I believe, the top 10 characteristics of AR-15s configured for defensive purposes and the top 10 components they should have.
The Case For The AR
From The Federalist:
All told, more Americans have fired more rounds from more AR-15s for personal defense, defensive firearm training, marksmanship competitions, individual practice, and hunting than from any other rifle. For that reason, the AR-15 is the primary firearm upon which Americans would rely if they had to fight for freedom today.
Bump Stock Ban Is Stupid And Unlawful
From The Federalist:
Perhaps in search of mythical bipartisanship points, Trump ordered the Department of Justice (DOJ) to craft a new administrative rule banning the devices. This might seem odd to anyone who has managed to stay awake through a single civics class or a third of an episode of “Schoolhouse Rock.†That’s because this attempt to bypass the legislature is completely out of line with the law.
Florida Dem Says NRA Turning Kids To Targets
From Fox News:
Jeff Greene, a Florida gubernatorial candidate, accused the National Rifle Association of turning “our kids into targets†in a striking new advertisement.
“As a father, I won’t stand by while the NRA turns our kids into targets,†a mailer, released Tuesday, says in bold letters atop an image of outlined children with backpacks as shooting targets. The fake targets say “AR Practice†and have the logo of the gun rights organization.
Upholding “Assault Weapon” Ban Could Backfire
From The Federalist:
The Supreme Court has refused to hear “assault weapon†cases in the past. However, previous cases were lower profile and the result of narrow readings, not the backwards interpretation exhibited in Kolbe. In its bravado, the Fourth Circuit may have crossed a bridge too far, sparking national debate and possibly forcing the issue to finally make it to the Supreme Court.
The Kolbe court justified their holding through a misplaced reliance on Heller’s discussion of weapons not protected by the Second Amendment: “dangerous and unusual weapons†and those “most useful in military service – M-16 rifles and the like.†This reliance was completely out of context, most obviously because the M-16 and its stablemates are machine guns, not in common lawful use by civilians anywhere. This is a far cry from the pedestrian semi-automatic weapons Maryland actually targeted.
Wilson Combat’s New Q-Comp
Posted by Brian in Accessories, Long Guns, News on 21/Sep/2016 07:00
From Wilson Combat:
AVAILABLE IN 3 THREAD PATTERNS
1/2″ x 28  (5.56/.223)
5/8″ x 24  (6.8, 300, .308, .338)
11/16″ x 24 (.458 SOCOM)
7.62x40WT By Wilson Combat
Review of the new round from RifleShooter.com:
Enter the 7.62x40WT.  Based off the 7.62x40mm wildcat, the 7.62x40WT is based off 5.56x45mm parent case trimmed to 1.560″ and then re-sized to accept 30-caliber bullets.  With factory offering from 110-125 grains, this cartridge seems to be the perfect hunting upgrade for the AR enthusiast.  The only part of a 7.62x40WT rifle that is different from a standard .223 AR is the barrel.  That’s it.
