Or grenade launchers. Have a stop @ CALGUNS, you'd be amazed @ what's "out there", and in the Nanny State, even.

Pretty much my feelings on the deal.
I am against free speech, however, if it's about something I don't like. Those folks need to be silenced.
Lol at Carl's family values post. I think she meant "family values for others." A lot of that kind of thinking going around.

Being a political board, discussions of firearms per se aren't really in our wheelhouse. The 2nd Amendment or the latest bit of fun with a Bushmaster are a different matter, of course, but these are so intertwined with politics and/or current events that the discussions usually happen there. Personally, I think that's more than sufficient.
Of course, if you want to indulge, there's this. The group was started by and subscribed to by a dozen or so members here but no conversations ever took place. Maybe you could start it rolling.

Nice looking, though. She may want to think about "eye values" too. More than a little silly not wearing some kind of eye protection whilst firing on a range.

Years ago, I was firing a 357/38 revolver and a little piece of shell casing peeled off and struck me in the face, about an inch below my eye. I know it was part of a brass shell because it stuck in my skin.
Not sure how the heck it came back and hit me but it did. That was enough to convince me.

Reloaded cart, perchance? Could mean metal fatigue from repeated resizing/bullet seating.
And an overloaded .357 puts a lot of unburned powder out the barrel, where it gets to explode like explosives always want, in all directions. Which, as you experienced, includes back your way.
