One of my favorite bands dropped a track a few days ago and I felt like sharing it. Post your favorite metal tracks!

Has anyone watched this yet? I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts. I had explained the story to my wife a few months back, who wasn't really familiar with the events (She was born outside the US and didn't come to the US until years after Waco). After we watched this series she had commented...

Thought you guys would get a kick out of this. Normally I'd consider this child abuse, but he detonates a century, so really he's just putting a rabid dog down. WARNING: The thumbnail is kind of bait...

Is anyone else getting a huge list of forum notifications containing repeat "achievement" style messages? This is just one capture, but it's been going on since this morning.

Hello friends, I recently lost my daily carry knife, so I'm in the market for a new one. Previously, I was carrying a SOG Flash II Tanto, partially serrated. I really love and utilize the tanto tip, and serrations are always nice to have in a pinch. That being said, I'm looking at the SOG-TAC...

I thought this was pretty interesting and decided to share: EDIT: This post previously contained a video to MAC regarding their tour of the PSA facilities. I removed the video to stand in solidarity with the community here, after reading through the entire history of what went down with the...

Hello all, In this thread, I'd like to open up a debate on the different types of locking systems for semi and automatic rifles. This isn't really about one being better than the rest as all have trade-offs, but more about why one would be chosen over another. To keep things simple, I want to...

Do we have any Russian friends on the forum? I'm in need of some research assistance and I'm afraid my Russian language skills are too limited to track down what I'm looking for. I'm in need of the ГОСТ 25346 standard from the 1960's in order to figure out some tolerancing symbols. I have the...

For anyone interested:

I'm home sick for the day and can't get this damn thing out of my head, so here I sit, working on it as I hack up a couple lungs...Before I dump some pics, let me ramble a bit: I was at lunch a couple weeks back with my friend and business partner and we got to discussing what kind of firearms...

Hey all, I'm working on a new rifle design called the SMP (pronounced "simp". The letters don't actually mean anything) and I want to source as many purchased parts as possible to keep manufacturing costs to a minimum. I'm not really intending to make it an AK clone of any kind, but I want to...

Not sure who's been tracking this, but as one who has studied the world events and politics leading up to WWI and WWII, I can't help but notice the patterns emerging in our weekly and monthly major headlines...

Thought I'd share this interesting video from Gun Jesus today:

Has anyone here seen this? What do you guys think? https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flmd.398039/gov.uscourts.flmd.398039.101.0.pdf TL;DR, A motion is being filed challenging the constitutionality of the NFA.

Hey guys, I just finished upgrading to SolidWorks 2022 last night and fired up my most recent project that I'm working on for a client. It got me thinking, "I wonder how many other independent gun designers are out there." So here's this post. If there's anyone out there, would you care to...
