Binary Triggers: Do They Have A Legitimate Use?
Today is another shared post from out buddy at progun millennial blog. Okay, so this one is a bit controversial, but hear me out first. Binary Triggers: What Are They? Binary triggers are range toys. Or, at least they were originally meant as such. From the very beginning they were created as a way toContinue reading “Binary Triggers: Do They Have A Legitimate Use?”
WeaponsMan: If You Had Only One 5.56mm Carbine?
A repost from Hognose, the original comments have been included for completeness. Make sure to read the comments, some are definitely worth it in one way or another…. We have an entire safe full of 5.56mm ARs (well, there’s also an old AR-10 in there) along with the safe of other stuff. But for aContinue reading “WeaponsMan: If You Had Only One 5.56mm Carbine?”

M1860 Colt
Today’s pictures don’t come from Karl, they come from friend Walter. A martially marked Colt M1860, made in 1863. This one still has a good deal of rifling left, and even traces of the cylinder engraving. Lock up and timing are excellent.

The Ultimate Hi-power?
Today’s post comes from our pals over at progunmillennial In my opinion, new production versions of classic cars are just about the coolest thing on four wheels.
