industry many manufacturers have come and gone. The issue gunsmiths and hobbyists alike run into is that once a manufacturer has been closed for decades upon decades it can become near impossible to locate replacement parts, or donor guns that match weapons that come into your shop, thus putting you into a situation where you improvise and find a way to make it happen or become the Gunsmith that can’t do the job. Paul Mazan recalled a great example of this in the article Gunsmithing Requires…
is close to approving a law that allows parents to have concealed weapons in their cars when dropping off their preschoolers to school and they are allowed to conceal them on themselves in the designated “victim zones” (The Editorial Board, 2015).

They argue that this will lead to more damage because people who are concealing their weapons will want to be a vigilante and not wait for law enforcement to…
semi-automatic rifles to keep our country safe. In the article, the author explains that the bump stock was not intended to be a tool to shoot fast at humans. This is obvious as there are no weapon companies that want to aid in shootings. Since 1930, a US citizen is not allowed to purchase a fully automatic weapon. However, according the article, “bump-fire stocks didn't exist when the National Firearms Act was enacted in 1934 or when the law was amended in 1986 to prohibit the transfer or…
that needs to be settled shortly! Heavy weapons are way too easy to acquire in America. People expecting to purchase a gun should have to get through tests and receive the necessary training they need to hold the gun on them or to even hold. Shooters that have easy to acquire just ended up landing in the hands of felons or people who don 't know how to properly utilize a gun or people with mental problems/disabilities that shouldn 't even own a heavy weapon. Thus, since we’ve discussed those in…
During the Middle Ages, many weapons were created to help in the winning of battles and unlike today's firearms, they had small weapons such as bows and swords. But as the castle walls became higher and stronger, a new weapon had to be invented to destroy them. This was 399 BC when a Greek historian named, Diodorus Siculus, was the first to document the use of a mechanical arrow firing catapult. The first catapults that were ever built were made in the early attempts to increase the range and…
solution is simple and one that has been brought up before. Simply arm the millions of women in the U.S. with firearms in order to ward off any potential predators or abusers. In her essay, “In the Combat Zone”, she advocates that women should carry weapons. An idea that is based on her own personal experiences and examples of past successes for gun owners.

have a gun and you fire a blank. This time you scare away the burglar and nothing like that ever happens. You see, gun control should not be limited since gun violence has greatly decreased, without guns we’ll be left vulnerable, and no matter the weapon, the Constitution allows any type of “arm”. If you think about it, gun violence has decreased because back in the day, having a gun made you popular but now other things can make you popular. For example, making up a simple dance that’s…
Way back they use actual sword and draw actual blood but now you’d use a foil which is a weapon that has a flat tip. On the tip it has red chalk on it so you’d know if you got hit. You’d also where a mask to cover your face, white uniform and fencing gloves.
