Table Bear has a particular liking towards the knife, both for it’s utilitarian underpinnings, and fine engineuity over the centuries. It’s also worth noting that rapists and murderers aren’t too fond of having them stuck in them while revelling in their inhuman passtimes.
Alas, it should not suprise many that a palm to the face ensued after reading that Ebay has decided to impose a blanket ban on the sale of knives through it’s UK site, following a ridiculous show of misinformation dressed up as journalism by BBC Watchdog. Suprisingly, this ban excludes kitchen knives, of which make up almost all of the knives used in murders.
Let’s examine Watchdog’s findings. They found it shocking that from the US, using Ebay they could import two folding knives, one assisted knife, a knife pen and a plastic knife, all claimed to be illegal. It is true that the knife pen could be considered a ‘disguised’ knife and the plastic knife a ‘stealth’ knife, both currently illegal to import and sell in the UK. However, the three folding knives pictured, including the assisted knife are not illegal ‘flick knives’ as Watchdog claim. Infact, they are sold legally in the UK. For a knife to be legally considered a ‘flick knife’ it must meet the definition below:
“A) any knife which has a blade which opens automatically by hand pressure applied to a button, spring or other device in or attached to the handle of the knife, sometimes know as a ‘flick knife’ or ‘flick gun’”
Like nearly all lock knives, the ones pictured have protrusions as well as thumb studs, which allow the user to open the blade with one hand. There is no button or device on the handle which opens the blade automatically. The assisted knife uses tension which pushes the blade open once it is moved a few centimetres using the exposed hump at the back. Essesntially you are pushing the blade foward, not a button on the handle.
A flick knife or ‘switchblade’
A legal manual lock knife, one claimed to be a ‘flick knife’ by Watchdog
Watchdog clearly know jack shit about knives, and neither did the police officer they interviewed (Who I might add, found the knives to be ‘awful’..)
But all of this is besides the point. All knives should be legal to sell and carry. The mentality displayed in this cheap, fear mongering, TV licencee funded piece of audiovisual excrement for the consumption of brain-battered zombie sheep is the same mentality sliding this country into a totalitarian Nanny State, where the government can have nuclear weapons, yet you can’t be trusted with a knife.

The best air rifle for small game hunting should be powerful enough to take down the game at reasonable distances, accurate, easy to handle, and durable. There are several factors to consider when choosing an air rifle, such as caliber, velocity, power source, and features like trigger pull and stock design. It’s also important to match the rifle with the type of game you’ll be hunting. For example, a .22 caliber rifle might be ideal for rabbits and squirrels, while a .177 caliber rifle might be better suited for birds and rodents. Researching and testing different options is key to finding the best air rifle for your hunting needs.
What small game can be hunted with an air rifle
Air rifles can be used for hunting small game such as rabbits, squirrels, rats, and birds. However, it is important to check the regulations in your area to ensure that hunting with an air rifle is permitted and to know the specific game species that can be hunted. It is also important to note that different states and countries may have specific laws on air rifles and hunting small game. It is always a good idea to check with your local wildlife agency before heading out to hunt with your air rifle.
Hunting Small Game with an Air Rifle Tips
If you’re planning to hunt small game with an air rifle, there are a few things you should keep in mind to make your hunt successful. One of the most important tips is to practice your shooting skills beforehand. You want to make sure you can hit your target accurately and humanely.
Another tip is to choose the right caliber and pellet for the type of small game you’re hunting. A .177 caliber is suitable for birds and small rodents, while a .22 caliber is better for rabbits and squirrels.
It’s also important to stalk and track your prey carefully. You don’t want to spook them and ruin your shot. Look for signs of small game such as nests, burrows, and tracks, and move slowly and quietly through the hunting area.
Lastly, be sure to dress appropriately for the weather and wear camouflage or earth-toned clothing to blend in with your surroundings. Happy hunting!
Air rifle pellets for small game hunting
When it comes to hunting small game with an air rifle, choosing the right pellets is crucial for success. There are many different types of pellets available, including hollow points, pointed, round nose, and more. Each type is designed for different purposes, such as maximum impact or accuracy at long range.
It is important to choose pellets that are the appropriate size, weight, and shape for your air rifle. Using the wrong pellets can result in poor accuracy, slow velocity, or even damage to your gun. Additionally, considering the game you are hunting is also important when choosing pellets.
Ultimately, the best way to determine the right pellets for your air rifle and small game hunting needs is through experimentation and practice. Try out different types of pellets and record your results to find the best fit for you. Remember to always prioritize safety in your hunting and shooting endeavors.
Air rifle vs shotgun for small game hunting
When it comes to hunting small game, many hunters debate whether to use an air rifle or a shotgun. While both have their advantages, it ultimately depends on the type of small game you are hunting and your personal preference.
Shotguns are generally better for larger game such as birds and rabbits, as they have a wider range and can take down the animal with one shot. However, they can be heavy and cumbersome to carry around.
Air rifles, on the other hand, are better suited for smaller game such as squirrels and rats. They are lightweight and easy to carry, making them ideal for longer hunting trips. Additionally, air rifles are quieter than shotguns, which can be important if you are trying to remain stealthy.
Ultimately, the choice between an air rifle and a shotgun will depend on your personal preference and the type of small game you are hunting. It’s important to do your research and choose the right weapon for the job to ensure a successful and ethical hunt.
Where to hunt small game with an air rifle
When it comes to small game hunting with an air rifle, choosing the right location is crucial. While some areas are open to air rifle hunting, others may have restrictions or be completely off-limits. It’s important to research and understand the specific regulations in your area before heading out on a hunt.
One option for small game hunting with an air rifle is public land. Many national forests and other public lands allow hunting, but it’s important to obtain the necessary permits and follow all rules and regulations. Private land is another option, but it’s important to obtain permission from the landowner before hunting on their property.
Another option for small game hunting with an air rifle is to find a hunting club or lease. These private properties are often managed specifically for hunting and may have a variety of small game available. Additionally, many hunting clubs offer amenities such as lodging and guides.
Ultimately, the key to finding a good location for small game hunting with an air rifle is to do your research and plan ahead. Determine the regulations in your area and seek out locations that are both legal and offer a good chance of success.
Choosing an air rifle for small game hunting
Choosing the right air rifle for small game hunting is an important decision that can impact your hunting success. When choosing an air rifle, you should consider factors such as the caliber, velocity, accuracy, and noise level. It’s essential to choose an air rifle that is powerful enough to kill small game humanely.
One of the most popular calibers for small game hunting is .22, as it is powerful enough to kill small game and has a good range. If you’re looking for a quieter option, a .177 caliber air rifle might be a better option. However, it may lack the necessary stopping power for larger game.
Another factor to consider is the velocity of the air rifle. A faster velocity usually equates to a flatter trajectory and better accuracy, making it easier to hit small game at longer ranges. However, faster-moving pellets can also be louder, which can spook game.
When choosing an air rifle, make sure to also factor in the type of hunting you plan to do. If you’ll be stalking small game in dense forests and brush, a lightweight air rifle that’s easy to maneuver might be a better option.
Ultimately, choosing the right air rifle for small game hunting involves finding a balance between power, accuracy, and noise level. Researching and testing different models before making a purchase can help you find the perfect air rifle for your specific hunting needs.
Air rifle scope for small game hunting
When it comes to small game hunting with an air rifle, having the right scope can make all the difference. A quality air rifle scope will allow you to accurately shoot at small targets from a distance, making your hunting experience more successful.
There are a few things to consider when choosing an air rifle scope for small game hunting. First, you’ll want to look for a scope that has a magnification range suitable for small game hunting, typically between 4x to 12x. You’ll also want to consider the quality of the lenses, as well as the field of view and eye relief.
Another important factor to consider is the reticle of the scope. A simple crosshair reticle is commonly used for small game hunting, but there are also options such as Mil-Dot or BDC reticles that can provide additional aiming assistance.
Overall, the right air rifle scope can greatly enhance your small game hunting experience. Take the time to research and choose a quality scope that meets your specific needs and preferences.
Regulations for Small Game Hunting with an Air Rifle
When it comes to small game hunting with an air rifle, it is important to understand the regulations set forth by governing bodies. These regulations can vary depending on the state or country you are in. It is important to do your research and understand what is required of you to ensure that you are hunting legally and ethically.
Some common regulations for small game hunting with an air rifle include the types of animals that can be hunted, the caliber of the air rifle that is allowed, and the required licenses and permits needed to hunt. It is also important to understand the limitations on where and when hunting is allowed.
By understanding and following these regulations, you can ensure that you are hunting in a responsible manner that not only respects the environment and small game but also avoids any legal consequences. So, before you head out on your next small game hunting trip, be sure to do your research and understand the regulations in your area.
Best air rifle pellets for small game hunting
When it comes to hunting small game with an air rifle, the choice of pellets can make a big difference. The best air rifle pellets for small game hunting are those that deliver consistent accuracy and sufficient power to take down the game.
There are many types of pellets available in the market, including hollow point, pointed, flat-nose, and round-nose pellets. The choice of pellet largely depends on the type of small game being hunted and the air rifle being used. For example, pointed pellets are better for shooting at longer distances, while hollow point pellets are better for hunting small game with thicker hides.
It is important to choose a pellet that is appropriate for the air rifle being used. Different rifles have different calibers and require different size pellets. Using the wrong size pellets can lead to inaccurate shots and potential harm to the shooter.
Ultimately, the best way to determine the best air rifle pellets for small game hunting is through trial and error. Experiment with different types of pellets until you find the ones that work best for your specific needs and preferences. Remember to always prioritize safety when hunting with an air rifle.

Emirati Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan met with the head of the world’s leading nuclear watchdog today.
Al Nahyan held a meeting with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) director-general Rafael Mariano Grossi at the Expo 2020 Dubai. The two discussed cooperation and the United Arab Emirates’ nuclear program, the official Emirates News Agency reported.
The UAE began operating a nuclear power plant last year, becoming the first country in the Arab world to do so. The nuclear power program is peaceful, and Abu Dhabi was partly motivated by a desire to diversify away from oil.
The timing of the meeting is notable given the ongoing negotiations over Iran’s nuclear energy program in Vienna. Grossi warned yesterday that Iran’s present nuclear capabilities are different from 2015, when the Iran nuclear deal came into effect. The IAEA and Iran also agreed today to install new cameras at a centrifuge site. The cameras are there for the IAEA to monitor Iran’s nuclear energy program.

Asteroids are the traditional "walls in space" within this genre. It's an arcade game, not a starship simulator. I had suggested a "hyperspace bubble" as an alternative, an "interdiction field", but that is limiting in some ways as well. If we made real warships in space, most of their weapons would be facing backwards. If we have equal ships except that your weapons face forwards and mine face backwards, you almost can't win that fight.
This flies in the face of historical and physical realities.
20th-century warships and fighter aircraft have almost invariably had more of their offensive armament facing forward than backwards. The invention of the synchronisation gear that allowed a machine gun to be fired forward through the propeller threatened to give Germany air supremacy in World War 1 until the Allies figured out their own methods of equipping fighters with forward-firing machine-guns, and experiments since with fighters firing their main armament in other directions, such as the British Defiant in WW2, were all failures. (The Germans did have success with upwards-firing Schrage Musik installations, but this was a supplement to the forward-firing armament, not the primary weapon.) Warships generally had the greatest firepower in broadsides due to practical limits imposed on hull design, but designers still try to pack the majority of the primary armament to also be able to fire forward if they can. Even tanks are generally designed to fight an enemy in the direction of their primary movement (which is what I would define as 'forward' for armoured vehicles that are capable of reversing): exceptions, such as the Archer, are also imposed by technical limitations, and for the Archer it was highly impractical to be firing its main gun and moving simultaneously (the gun would recoil into the driver's space...).
I really don't see considerations for space combat overriding the advantages of having your weapons facing in your primary direction of travel. In fact, if anything, they'd be stronger: in terrestrial combat, velocities are limited by various drag factors that are largely proportional to the velocity relative to the common reference frame of Earth. In space, this isn't the case. Any weapon fired by either ship will have the velocity of the firing ship in addition to the velocity it would have when fired from a stationary ship: in practice, this means that firing backwards offers no advantage in effective range or time to target over firing forwards to compensate for the practical complications of not being able to shoot at a target you're flying at. One possible advantage to firing backward at a pursuing opponent rather than firing forward at a pursued opponent is that it might complicate the pursuer's ability to engage in evasive action without breaking off the chase, but when ships are powered by reaction mass thrusters of some description (as seems to be the case in Star Control) this may be counterbalanced by the fact that those thrusters are probably more difficult to 'harden' against enemy fire.
So, history (particularly aeronautical history, which is what space combat physics are likely to be closest to) has shown that forward-facing armaments are superior, and if anything the physics of space combat appear to reinforce this. (Caveat: In situations where engines are relatively weak compared to gravity and ships mostly operate by orbital mechanics, pointing a ship directly towards an enemy ship might not be the best way of getting closer to it, and in these circumstances ships would probably want weapons able to cover as many directions at once rather than focusing forward. However, this does not appear to be the case in the majority of any Star Control battle map)
Now, you may be thinking in terms of Star Control physics, where projectiles do not necessarily gain the velocity of the firer (they do in some cases, such as the Kohr-Ah FRIED, but there are also some very clear cases where they do not such as the Mycon plasmoids). Even here, though, game experience does not seem to hold to your hypothesis: the Spathi Eluder, while a good ship, is not unbeatable, despite having high speed and agility, above-average durability, and a good rear-firing weapon. In fact, the statistics of the Eluder ameliorate some of the disadvantages coming from having their primary weapon: the Eluder can turn quickly allowing it to move into firing position, turn around to point its rear at the enemy, and commence engaging in the Spathi's second-favourite tactic (their favourite, of course, being not fighting in the first place). Ships with slower turn rates would not be able to pull this off as efficiently.
The barrier is needed because the fight itself is unrealistic. Nobody would ever fight to the death in the middle of empty space for no reason at all. Your natural instinct is to stay away, and safe, as soon as you start to lose or have a significant disadvantage. So that is what most people will do. It isn't only about "refusal to engage", there really is a lot too it. For example, as you again mentioned the ships can be designed to work on an open map. The Mycon works on an open map. But if you rely on ship design then your ships will all be very much the same. No fast ships with long range weapons, no slow ships with short range weapons... and those are just the two most obvious restrictions.
And in the SC2 adventure mode, this was represented by being able to warp out as long as you had a few seconds where you could do so, allowing for ships to be evacuated from unfavourable matchups... at the cost of not being available for the rest of the battle.
Melee is a bit 'gameified' in the sense that there would be no advantage to the player in warping out over going out in a blaze of glory - the ship is gone for the rest of the map regardless. Unless one player decides to troll the other by dragging out the match, this works: the player with an unwinnable matchup just does what damage they can before bringing up another ship. My proposal, however, would allow for such trolling to be punished (by assuming that a ship that does nothing but run away will eventually just warp-out) without throwing out the baby with the bathwater by turning the simulated freedom of the wraparound map into an unrealistic cage-match. (Having an objective - most likely the planet - would also serve to limit keep-away behaviour.)
An objective removes the need for a barrier. The barrier is only needed when the only objective is attrition, destroying the other ship. But in a 1v1 duel in open space, that just won't work without containing the faster ship or designing all of the ships to work on an open map. Designing all of the ships to work on an open map makes them all pretty much the same, there would be very little variety.
The Star Control 2 ships don't feel like they're all the same to me. In fact, they appear more distinct from one another than I've seen from the SC:O ships thus far, although that may be experience talking.
Faster ships generally having shorter-range weapons, to me, is something that makes sense from a realism perspective as well as a gameplay sense. Longer-range weapons are likely to be bigger. Bigger weapons require more space to be mounted on a ship, which in turn requires bigger ships. Bigger ships are likely to be slower.
Furthermore, the SC2 model still allows for long-range weapons on faster ships, since it also has a number of slower ships that are able to protect themselves against being plinked at by such weapons, such as point-defence systems, shields, and other defences, while often still having a means of shooting back. While ships that are slow and have short-range weapons, such as the Avatar and Intruder, have means of reducing the mobility of the enemy ship.
EDIT: I should also mention that the current map is about the smallest "boxing ring" you would ever want to use. I would think the "standard map" would be about 50% bigger than the current one. The current map is so small that the contracting ring really doesn't even make much sense on this map. Larger maps might have that ring, that contracts down to about the size of the current map. The current map, with the planet and gravity removed (and I still like just a straight "energy barrier" wall in space better than the asteroids) is really a "serious tournament map". A "standard map" might be about 50% bigger than this, and a "large map" might be twice this size. These larger maps might contract after a time limit, but the current "small map" doesn't even need the contracting ring. The current map is very small, and the planet/gravity at the center making it even smaller and denying the center to the slower ship. The planet/gravity is hurting the slower ships a lot right now, it is taking up the space they want to control without providing a slingshot to give them something back in return for that, which is probably a part of why none of the ships are actually slow.
I've got to say that I find this to be somewhat irrelevant. Less of a bad thing may be less bad, but this does not make it a good
I'd agree that, from a believability perspective, an artificial energy field would make more sense than an unnatural asteroid field, but at the bottom line, to me it's less enjoyable than the original formula. And from what I've seen of other people's feedback, that appears to be the majority opinion: there are a few people praising the restricted map, but a lot more saying that they prefer the original wraparound style.
Given that SC2 appears to have managed a high degree of variation between ships despite having the wraparound map that you claim limits ship design, it appears that the only real advantage to the cage-match play is to limit trolling behaviour - and I think there are ways to do that which doesn't punish everybody for the sake of the odd troll.


All weapons' descriptions have been rewritten. They now contain several paragraphs: one is a technical paragraph about the weapon, its origin, its charateristics, its use in the real world. Another one is a short background related to its appearance and use into the Zone. Special weapons have further more details about background and technical reference of the upgrade.
Also to mention about weapons in Redux: most of them have became customisable, for instance silencer on the FN2000, or scope and silencer on the Groza. (real weapon names are included)

India launches ballistic missile
India has test-fired its longest-range nuclear-capable ballistic missile, Agni-III, officials said.
The surface-to-surface missile was test-fired off the coast of Orissa state in eastern India.
With a range of more than 3,000km (1,865 miles), the missile could hit targets as far off as Beijing and Shanghai, analysts say.
Beijing and Shanghai??? Why just these two cities? Does that mean the missile is already turned towards China? With a range of over 3,000 km radius, the missile could be launched to any other cities or countries as well.
It’s really hilarious; the western media are not leaving any stones unturned in trying to “destroy” China.


You've GOT to see this!! Colt has never been known to be good at mass producing revolvers like S&W or Ruger, so there were going to be growing problems with the re-up of the snake line. I am not sure if the 28 is made anymore. I think, inherently, S & W lockwork is faster than the Colt. I put many thousands of rounds through the Trooper and Diamondback – with never a hitch. 2.54 cm to the inch. If you want a 686 they are out there. Bobs Ruger, same extras $350, and I shelled out about $50-75 more. Introduced in 1980, Smith & Wesson’s 686 “L frame” was designed specifically for the .357 Magnum cartridge. The grips are the other major variation. Back in Oct. 1990, a few law enforcement officers I went to the academy with purchased personal firearms. Colt was having a hard time keeping consistent quality control with the last of the double action revolvers, and with people wanting more for less these days the same gun couldn’t be made affordably these says without some cost cutting production measures. Yet these aren’t the same model, like those are. If Kimber, S&W, Ruger, and Taurus can make a DA .357 revolver, but Colt easily can, but simply will not – now that is embarrassing and pathetic. If Colt resumed production, the “aura” of the Python would be gone. I’ve written about this before in several posts, but it bears repeating. As a gun smith that works on both I have to disagree. MSRP for the blued model $543. I’m sure if Colt thought they could profit by tooling up for Pythons they probably would,(also would be nice to see Diamondbacks hit the market again). I purchased mine 40 years ago when I was home on leave from the Navy and just left it locked up in my parents house as I completed what turned out to be a 30 year hitch. The only S&W .357 I had was a 2-1/2″, 66–great trigger and amazingly easy to keep a tight group at 10 yards–for one wheel in .357! Daves Python cost him $650+ with 2 boxes good ammo, a Dasantis pancake and a few odds and ends. Both are great firearms none the less. I think that they are fantastic guns and were a great bargain. And let’s also assume that your knowledge of the basic shape of the trigger guard wouldn’t give one away. People at the range always liked to shoot all of them, but the moans would always start when I took out the snake. Why not the Python? Making this a THREE way test would have been really interesting. Love my S&W PC 357 8 shot revolver. I love it. Colt built the King Cobra to compete with the 686/586. I defineetly shoot my Pythons better than my 686’s or N frames. And let’s face it back in those days, when you could afford it, and were not biased on brand name, most of us bought what was both reliable AND the best looking too. Most Python’s that I handled always had a trigger pull and actions that were like silky grease. If you are looking for a revolver to take out of the safe, shoot occasionally–and one that will surely increase in value the longer you own it, you need a Python. Seems like a no-brainer to me. They share the same grip angle. Smith & Wesson produces a wide variety of .357s, and some are less expensive than the 686. Rear Sight: Adjustable White Outline My Wife always puts me to shame with her Colt Trooper! You didn’t know which gun was made by which company. I bought and carried a 686 on duty for when they first arrived on the gun market. plus it would stick on cycling at one hole on the wheel. Weight Empty: 43.9 oz, Model: Python ... Smith & Wesson Model 686 Revolver, .357 Mag. None of them can come close to comparison to my !970 made Python. The average worker in the US would shell out nine days wages to pay for a Python in 1956. So is crappy health insurance, so my beautiful Python and 686 had to go on to good homes. Bob got a 210. You can’t go wrong with either! As is, they’re visually distinct. However, you are quite correct when you state that Colt has had more than its share of quality control issues over the years. The weights are equal. All businesses have to make bottom line decisions, like it or not. The single action is super crisp 3.5 pounds.

It was Electra Glide in Blue that convinced me this was the LEO gun I wanted and it served me well. They are only good for looks. The finish is the most beautiful of ANY gun made. If you\’re on a budget – or not – there is no reason not to consider a Taurus 66 at 2/3 the cost of a 686 and spend the balance on a good holster and/or ammo. A very good article that provides a solid overview of two very similar and outstanding revolvers. (not so much the ex!!!!). Bottom line, in my mind, if you can’t/shouldn’t use it, don’t buy it ! For me, the butt shape of a Smith always fit my hand better than a Colt and especially a Ruger and that was the difference for my favoring the Smith. That’s beyond a Hog Leg. I shoot it regularly in both ICORE and IDPA matches. Let me start off by saying I own all of the following revolver brands & models (Colt Python, S&W 686-3, 686-4, 686-6+, 686-7, and Ruger GP-100). The other gun nut in the lab (who was peering over my shoulder) said , “see how it functions…” I was not expecting much from that old rust bucket, but I pulled it out and the action was still smooth as butter. I’ve watched from the sidelines as revolvers come and go – those that desperately need work, and those that need just .0004″ shaved from the sear before the competition shooter is finally happy.

He said it was extreamly accurate, but fragile. I do personally prefer revolvers to semi-auto. Adding to the confusion, the very Python-like clockwork hinted of things to come, although the folks from Colt would only say the action was scaleable. The facts are that years ago Colt foolishly turned there plant into a union run manufacture. They are also made by employees who are NOT craftsmen but rather parts assemblers. My first handgun was a Taurus 66 in blued steel, 4\” barrel, 7 shot configuration. There are smaller manufacturers that pull it off, too–though their prices reflect the smaller number of guns they produce. Look at a lot of old revolvers, and real quick you’ll get used to seeing 10 out-of-time old Colts for every out-of-time old Smith. Frame Size: Medium – Exposed Hammer I doubt Colt ever had more than a few police contracts, whereas S&W had, not only most cities and states, but also FBI and other feds. However, I do alternate it with a M66, 6in to not beat it up too much. The people who run Colt are sitting on a gold mine. Any lighter and you will start to experience primmer detonation failure. It feels like snapping a thin glass tube. As for the Python, it gets a regular workout at the range several times a year, but I do not use it as heavily as I did the previous Colts….guess I’m “babying” it somewhat. That being said, the hand on a Colt wears faster (thus more of them out of time) and where as the V Springs that allows a light trigger will break much easier than a single leaf. I bought the pythons and I shot them back in the 80s and 90s and enjoyed them but I let them go. As a Police Officer and as a Detective I have also carried Model 19’s in 2 1/2 and 4 inch models and had great success with them. It was made in 1961, the first year of 4″ manufacture. Either gun can be smoothed out as that is just a matter of polish but the “V” spring allows for a lighter trigger pull and still affords enough hammer speed to ignite primers.

The poly grips are as comfortable as any Hogues I\’ve ever handled and I can get SA groups all day long along the same lines as the author, shooting .38+P and .357 ammo. Both revolvers and semi autos. If they’d had the same finish and grips attached, I doubt many of us could pick them apart at any distance. So if you want the best brute, buy a nicely used 686 with forged parts. I purchased a Smith581, a friend(we’ll call him Dave) purchased a python, and “Bob” a Ruger GP101 or 100? I own Pythons. I like Colt snake guns. There are few if any people left in the company that produced such remarkable guns. made guns. Both are chambered in .357 Magnum with four-inch barrels. I doubt Colt ever had more than a few police contracts, whereas S&W had, not only most cities and states, but also FBI and other feds. Buy it. If you always regret missing out on the opportunity to buy a Colt Python this is the Revolver for you. I have for decades. I am happy to say though the Python never ended up a safe queen! . Got and love my S&W 586-6″ (Blued), after my S&W 29, (Dirty Harry’s). I have one, it makes holes in paper, keeps the milage off my buttery-smooth Python actions.

Many shooters believe that it is impossible to determine the optimal time to clean an AR-15. If you asked every owner you met their opinion, you might be shocked by how diverse their responses are. Some individuals may insist on cleaning the AR each and every time they use it, even if they have not yet fired it. Others might argue that preventive maintenance should be performed every month. Others may argue that it is unnecessary to clean a firearm that is not in use. It is not always simple to find the correct response.
AR-15 cleaning kits are essential because they represent a substantial investment. There are several tools available for this purpose, including the CAT Outdoors M4 Tool. This device allows you to quickly and effectively clean your AR-15. It is perfect for competitions or when time is limited. The significance of cleaning your AR-15 is elaborated on in the following section.
Looking For Carbon Accumulation
Carbon buildup is one of the most important difficulties that could emerge if you do not regularly clean your AR-15. Carbon residue from each shot fired with your AR-15 will soon begin to accumulate in multiple locations close to the weapon’s essential components. This will occur sooner as opposed to later. There is the bolt assembly, the bore and chamber, and the firing control group, to name a few.
These are crucial regions, and if they haven’t been cleaned in a while, the debris that has accumulated there will hinder the functioning of your weapon. Rust can also collect, which will degrade your rifle’s finish and, if it occurs inside the barrel, will drastically affect both accuracy and bullet trajectory. Rust can also develop organically with time.
The most effective strategy is to keep your rifle clean at all times, completing a thorough cleaning once every month to ensure that all debris has been removed from the entire weapon.
As previously said, the answer to this issue may vary significantly depending on whom you consult. There is no tried-and-true approach accessible which is the correct response. The frequency of cleaning the weapon will depend on its intended usage, its frequency of use, and the conditions under which it is employed.
If you reside in a humid environment, you must ensure that your firearm is thoroughly cleaned after each use since moisture and condensation can cause irreparable damage. If you only use your firearm for target practice and live in a dry location, you will likely not need to clean it as frequently as you would otherwise.
It is strongly advised that you clean your AR-15 at least once a month. You will not be concerned about not having access to it when you need it. At least once a year, if possible, you should perform a thorough cleaning of your home, as recommended by the vast majority of cleaning specialists. Again, this is dependent on the environment and the method of application.
There is no need to explain why you feel the need to clean more often. It makes no difference if the firearm is cleaned more frequently. In fact, it may assist you in becoming comfortable and confident with the AR-15’s operation. This material is not expected to be in any way harmful.
There are numerous other reasons to ensure that your firearm is properly cleaned, but removing carbon can affect its accuracy. In addition to a number of gun cleaning supplies, CAT Outdoors provides an assortment of cleaning tools.
The ability to handle, store, and use weapons safely are referred to as “gun safety.” If people consistently practice safe gun handling, it may be able to reduce the number of accidents and injuries caused by weapons. Observe your target and its surroundings, and make sure the muzzle is always pointing in the correct direction. Additionally, avoid touching the trigger until you are prepared to shoot. Four gun safety rules. Consider what goes outside the confines of your objective.
When handling a firearm, you should always ensure that the muzzle is pointed in a safe direction. To accomplish this, you must constantly steer the gun away from yourself and other people, and you must never point it at an object you do not intend to shoot. Never attempt to aim at a moving object. Do not pull the trigger until you are confident that you are completely prepared to do so. Avoiding unintentional discharges. Always ensure the firearm is unloaded while not in use. This decreases the risk of illegal use as well as accidents.
The firearm must be stored in a secure location that only its owner may access while it is not in use. You must be acquainted with both your target and the surrounding area. This ensures that you will only fire at the intended target and that you will be aware of what lies beyond the target prior to firing.
Safety with firearms must be of the utmost concern, not only for gun owners but also for those who employ firearms. Follow the four gun safety laws if you wish to prevent getting injured or having an accident.
How Can One Determine Whether a Gun Is Loaded and Ready to Fire?
Examining the chamber of the firearm is the most effective method for determining whether or not a gun still contains bullets. First, steer the cannon away from potential danger. After that, the magazine must be removed from the action and then opened. If you can see a bullet moving inside the pistol’s chamber, you should assume that the weapon is loaded and take the necessary precautions to avoid being shot. Even though there is no ammo in the chamber, extra caution should still be exercised when handling an unloaded firearm. Always proceed as if a firearm is loaded when handling it, just in case it actually is.
Utilizing a Weapon With a Magazine
There is no such thing as a completely safe weapon, and there never was and never will be. Whether you possess a gun or merely spend a lot of time with people who do, it is vital to know how to disarm one. This could be the deciding factor between life and death in the event of an accident or an attack.
There are two methods for securely deactivating a firearm. To get started, the magazine must be removed from the rifle. No modification will be made until the magazine has been revised. Second, confirm that the gun’s chamber is empty. Effective use of the weapon is impossible until it has been reloaded.
If you do not know how to disarm a firearm, you should get help from a trained professional. You can enroll in a diverse selection of gun safety courses.
Last Word Regarding Firearm Safety
In addition to the three safety guidelines that have been discussed, there are a few extra considerations to keep in mind when handling a firearm. Always demonstrate the utmost respect and care when handling a firearm. Guns are not toys, and under no circumstances should they be used recklessly.

Recently, an artificial intelligence agent flew the Lockheed Martin VISTA X-62A training plane for more than 17 hours. VISTA, which stands for Variable in-flight Simulator Test Aircraft, can simulate other aircraft’s performance characteristics using the software. It also mimicked the human pilot’s behavior on this occasion.
Lockheed states that this is the first time AI has been used in this way on a tactical aircraft. This platform will be used to test autonomously-flyable aircraft designs.
Dr. M. Christopher Cotting, director of research at the US Air Force Test Pilot School (USAF TPS), stated that VISTA would allow them to parallelize the development of cutting-edge artificial Intelligence techniques with new uncrewed vehicle designs.
This approach and focus testing on new vehicle system designs will quickly mature autonomous technology for uncrewed platforms and enable us to deliver tactically pertinent capability to our warfighters.
Calspan and Lockheed’s skunkworks division collaborated to create VISTA for USAF TPS at Edwards Air Force Base, California.
The USAF upgraded the VISTA X-62A using Lockheed’s Model Following Algorithm and System for Autonomous Control of the Simulation. These systems, when integrated, allow VISTA to perform advanced flight tests that harness AI and autonomy.

What I don't like:
- The additional to-hit bonus (even with a secondary to-hit for another group of enemies, the weapon is not that suited for) is unneccesary and to much bookkeeping. Plus the characters get more powerful fast.
- There are a few very powerful special attacks that throw off the balance of the game (deflect, I see you there lurking by the longsword!).
- Every weapon needs an own portfolio. There are weapons missing and a DM might need to make them himself.
- There are no suitable rules for Weapon Mastery and Monsters. Or damage adjustments for bigger Weapons, etc..
- Weapon damage seems arbitrary. A longsword deals 1d8 damage at basic level, but with skilled mastery, the next level, it deals 1d12 damage. The bastard sword, on the other hand, deals, when used one-handed, only 1d6+1 and 1d6+3 with skilled mastery.
Why different damage for weapons?
The old chainmail rules gave all weapons just 1d6 for damage. So this is an old issue and I'll just quote Mr. Rients about how this might be a good idea to start with. My proposal is somewhat different, but the basic assumption is the same: basic damage for weapons, different damage per class. Weapon mastery applies (sort of).
How it's done.
Each class gets an own combat strength:
Magic User = 1d4 per level of mastery
Thief = 1d6 per level of mastery
Cleric = 1d8 per level of mastery
Fighter = 1d10 per level of mastery
Halfling = 1d6 per level of mastery
Elf = 1d8 per level of mastery
Dwarf = 1d10 per level of mastery
- There are 3 combat categories: Ranged Weapons, Melee and Unarmed Combat.
- Every 3 levels a character might add one die to one category (weapon mastery).
- This dice pool might be used for damage or any other weapon ability regarding weapon mastery (but for every weapon used). You want a better to-hit in the next fight? Take one die from the pool, roll it and you have the to-hit you get and one die less for damage. Same goes for better AC (if you rather want to stay your ground than doing actual damage), deflect (roll the die and see how many attempts you have to deflect an attack), etc..
- If there are no dice left in the pool, you do 1 point damage plus strength mod per attack.
- No more than 3 dice for damage per attack.
- Ranged weapons do one die damage per attack (exception being the heavy crossbow and any other large ranged weapon you might come up with).
- When attacking with a ranged weapon, a character might use his damage die for a better to-hit with the next attack (aiming).
- With Unarmed attacks a character has to assign one die to stun the enemy (result on the roll is the penalty for the save vs. paralyze).
- Large weapons like the heavy crossbow or the halberd need 2 damage dice. So to shoot a heavy crossbow a player with level 1 needs to collect dice for one round and fires it every other round.
- To attack with 2 weapons you need one die for each (so a character needs to be level 3 or more to do such a thing).
- The distribution of dice being a tactical decision, it happens before the fight.
- Rounds are 30 seconds.
This makes it very easy for a DM to assign weapon damage for NPCs and Monsters and the game stays tactical. It's also less bookkeeping for the players. Dice pools for bigger creatures and weapon restrictions will be part of two other posts I hope to finish in the near future.
