Rich Wyatt, the star of American Guns, a once-popular Discovery Channel program that showcased him, his telegenic family, including wife Renee and kids Paige and Kurt, and his business, Wheat Ridge's Gunsmoke Guns, has been found guilty of conspiring to deal firearms without a license and multiple tax charges. The verdict completes the fall of a once-prominent TV personality who rubbed shoulders with celebrities such as rock star Ted Nugent and even a former President of the United States, George W. Bush.

The kids gave mom an ipod several years ago. They put tunes on it for her back when, now she wants some new stuff added. I signed up for iTunes and bought some new music. How do I get them on there? The library doesn't match and it seems to want to delete the old stuff. It won't sync or upload because I'm to "authorized". Why is this so convoluted?

In 1938, the Swedish M96 long rifle had been in service for 42 years and the M94 cavalry carbine for 44 years. Despite the fact most of Sweden's European neighbors continued to deploy similar rifles, largely based on the similar Mauser 98 action, Sweden's artillery officers who controlled armaments development could not help but notice that the trend was towards a shorter, intermediate length rifle such as the German Karabiner 98k. The issue M96 long rifle, on the other hand, had more in common with the Gewehr 98 of the First World War than the sleeker and handier Karabiner. Additionally,...

Fans of the .44 Remington Magnum owe a debt to Elmer Keith. Keith was a cigar-smoking, Stetson-wearing westerner who first wrote the “Gun Notes” column for this magazine. He was a proponent of bigbore sixguns and liked to load the antique .44 Special with lots of gunpowder. Keith convinced Remington and Smith & Wesson to collaborate, and in 1956 the .44 Magnum and the S&W Model 29 were born. Twenty-four years later, Ruger introduced the Redhawk double-action revolver, and it would come to be regarded as one of the strongest-built .44 Magnum sixguns you could buy. snip Hindle said, "The...

Good on Hannity for his piece on Gunwalker tonight. A compehensive report on this mess, and some history on how terrible ATF has been through Waco and the Randy Weaver fiasco. Some more tech savy FReepers will help me with links to the vidio I hope.

LOVELAND, Colo. -- The city of Loveland will pay a $15,000 settlement to a man who said his civil rights were violated when police briefly seized a handgun he was openly carrying at a park.

Sorry, I don’t need advice on what gun to buy. But since gun porn sucks lately, do any of you stuff brass? I have been loading for a while. I’d like to know what some of you all do. First, I use a simple press. And I never got around to trusting powder throwers. I don’t load for self-loaders, they are generally finicky and the ammo goes too fast. I load wheel gun and bolt rifle ammo. Mostly hunting ammo. And I have tried light, fast loads and heavy loads; magnum handguns and several rifles. After quite a bit of...

There was an article here about what became of the signers of the Declairation and the personal price they paid. I would like to find that.

For several weeks now when I go to sites that have imbeded vidio (weaselzippers for example) all I see is a little square in the top left where the vid should be. This started about the time Comcast wanted me to change to Norton. I use AVG so my laptop is unchanged. I asked Comcast but they said update my media played. It works fine for youtube, etc. It seems to just be imbeded vids at web sites.
