Ammunition

It’s all about the blue and green. When I, bought my rifle, I knew that it needed to be broken in, but I would also use that timeframe to sight in my rifle as to not waste my time and ammunition. If the shooter has the correct; base, scope mount, rings, quality glass, cleaning kit and match grade ammunition, there ready to break in their barrel. The purpose behind the breaking in process is to give the bore a final finish, where the copper fouling will not be excessive, and the bore will resist…

The charge and conviction of mutiny against the African American sailors were motivated by the racism shown against them by the naval officers at Port Chicago. The African Americans were charged with mutiny, although what they were doing was not considered mutiny due to the naval definition. The navy believed the men were refusing to go back to work and start a mutiny because of the general ineptitude that they believe African Americans represented. Finally, the verdict of the fifty men guilty…

the wild pig [Cudjoe] was Clare’s idea. But neither she nor Zoe, who had gone along, saying little, had thought about the reality of it, at least not past taking the rifle and ammunition, and walking up Angel’s Hill to cut their way through to the pig’s lair with a machete. . . She was a girl, she had taken a gun and ammunition; perhaps that was forbidden act enough (Cliff 114-15). As it states in the evidence, “she was a girl”, she is a girl who should not dare portray manly acts. It is…

My dad goes to a guys trip with his college friends every year in Gruene ,TX. They bring guns, rent out a cabin, tube down the river, and have fun for five days. When I was old enough I got to go with him on the five day trip. The trip was to start on July 19 and in the weeks before the trip I was indubitably full of excitement. The day of the trip we left around 8:00am and started the hour and half drive to the cabin. In the car my dad told me about his friends and what they did together in…

off the gunners arm. The gunner would not have to hold the gun up, only aim and fire. A machine gun would require a gun crew of four to six operators. They could fire 400-600 rounds of ammunition per minute. The machine gun could fire so many rounds because it had a long metal clip that usually sat in an ammunition box with rounds that fed a fabric belt or a metal strip. The reality however was that these early machine guns would rapidly overheat and become inoperative without the aid of cooling…

The illegal alien who murdered Kate Steinle is suing the federal government for carrying out "vindictive acts" against him, according to Breitbart. Jose Inez Garcia-Zarate is demanding documents “pertaining to vindictive prosecution and collusion” with the state government in the case against him.

He writes about the items soldiers carried on their backs and on their minds. This is similar to other wars such as the Gulf War in 1990. However, the technology, geographical features, and the politics of the two wars have several differences. There are similarities between Vietnam and Iraq: In both conflicts, there was pressure…

Arming pilots For many years the question has been asked, “is arming pilots a good idea?”. I personally believe that pilots should be but others may argue differently. The idea of arming pilots today isn’t a topic that was always thought of. As a matter of fact, the idea was proposed after the attacks on the World Trade Centers on September 11, 2001. Before those attacks were carried out, the idea was unheard of. After the attacks however, this was an idea a lot of…
