Food for thought The supposed quietude of a good man allures the ruffian; while on the other hand arms, like laws, discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world, as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside. Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them. - Thomas Paine Did you know? BSA stands for Birmingham Small Arms. The English company was established in 1861. The 22-250 is based on the 250-3000 Savage case necked down to .22 caliber and is so named because of the caliber (22) and the parent case (250). Biathlon has its roots as a training exercise in the Norwegian Army, and became an official Olympic event at the 1960 Games. Women’s biathlon was included in 1992. In the past 20 years, it has grown to become one of Europe’s most popular Nordic sports.

Article Of The Moment it goes up... lol A barrel shroud Shoulder thing that goes up is a ventilated covering attached to the barrel of a firearm, that partially or completely encircles the barrel, that allows the bearer to hold the firearm for stability. Slides, extensions of the stock that do not fully encircle the barrel, and the receiver (or frame) of a firearm itself are generally not considered barrel shrouds. Huh? Well, that's what we thought they were for, anyway. Carolyn McCarthy seems to think we've got it all bassackwards. The video and the laughs are both over there →→→→. Barrel shrouds have no effect on the ballistic performance of the firearm on to which they are installed other than offering an additional grip to help control recoil while firing. No need to worry about that, though; they were still included in the Federal Assault Weapons Ban definition of assault weapons because firearms fitted with them are perceived, in the murky depths of the gun grabber mind, to be designed for warfare rather than sporting or individual defense. Maybe they think this because barrel shrouds are commonly featured on heavy machine gun barrels, along with a carrying handle, as to better allow the firer to swap barrels. Some actual real examples Is this wtf she's talking about? An MG-42 medium machinegun with a (special, off-the-shoulder) shrouded barrel. An AR-10 rifle with a shrouded barrel (that doesn't go up).
