[QUOTE=TacticalBacon;38635966]Does that thing have two triggers next to each other? I can't quite tell from this angle, but it looks like it does........[/QUOTE]
2 triggers, 2 barrels, 1 slide. I have no idea how this thing is supposed to work.
[QUOTE=Ridge;38637118]2 triggers, 2 barrels, 1 slide. I have no idea how this thing is supposed to work.[/QUOTE]
The 2 triggers are linked, pulling one fires both barrels. When it first showed up, people were worried that it would classify as a machine gun because it shoots 2 shots for 1 pull of the trigger.

If there's an armed intruder in your house and you have to shoot him down, the last thing i would care about are my eardrums.

In the eyes of the ATF, everything is a machinegun.

Or can be made into one. :v:
Don't want Al Capone to get wind it's legal to freely buy machineguns or he might rise from the dead to destroy the Fed.
I'd hate it if gang-bangers got their hands on these double-barreled fully automatic 1911's.
Stepping in this thread is like jumping into the finnish thread
I have no idea about any of this.
Any helpful links so I can learn a good amount about guns, the parts, and how they work?

You can also just ask, many of us enjoy talking about it, you can also pop into the "coolest and ugliest weapons" thread in FT. Riller loves going off on rants about guns.

I'm watching a show about the Puerto Rican border patrol, and one of the idiot officers processing an illegal shipment called a submachine gun an AK-47.

Yes, that episode exactly.
I love how I just needed to say Puerto Rican border patrol and you guys found the exact video clip I was watching.
Later in the episode, they said they found an 8mm handgun, it looked like a 9mm Beretta 92 to me.
[QUOTE=vide0bug13;38633201]I ordered A scope and rings and some accessories for my ruger 10/22 I bought forever ago. But The order is still waiting for just the scope rings, I at least need the cleaning kit so I can shoot it and clean up after. If I can get them to change the order, what's the main difference, if any between high and medium rings?
I was getting 1" Medium rings of these: [URL]http://www.opticsplanet.com/weaver-tactical.html[/URL]
But they said itll be out of stock for weeks longer even. If I can get them to switch medium rings for high rings, will there be any downsides?
I'm putting a Nikon ProStaff Rimfire 3-9x40mm Riflescope on a 10/22 is all, not too complicated.
Thanks![/QUOTE]
No one has provided any accurate information to your questions, so I am going to answer them. I know more about optics than I do guns, and that is saying something. Taller scope rings serve two purposes; clearance and comfort. Taller scope rings are for larger objective scopes, and taller open scope rings are for you to be able to use iron sights if your gun has them. Assuming you are using a 40mm or smaller objective, the only purpose taller scope rings would serve is for shooter comfort. Basically, if you find it uncomfortable to look down into your scope on lower rings, you can use taller rings to alleviate this somewhat. This is strictly user preference, and you need to decide it for yourself.
Height does NOT effect accuracy. The ANGLE at which the scope is at is what effects accuracy, and I will be explaining this below. As for you, a .22LR is not capable of reaching distances where you would need to worry about scope angle or adjustments. Basically, get what ever height feels the most comfortable to you. Scope is personal preference as well. Personally, anything past a 4x is excessive for a .22LR, and a larger scope is just extra un-needed weight. A good 4x fixed power scope is the most a .22LR will EVER need. Again though, this is just my personal preference.
[QUOTE=raccoon2112;38634403]also too high of scope rings can fuck with your zero and make your gun shoot low at close range[/QUOTE]
It's not height that effects the zero, it's the angle. Whether the scope is 1mm away from the barrel or 2" away from the barrel, as long as the scope and barrel are parallel your zero will not be effected. If your scope is NOT parallel to your barrel, regardless of the height, your zero will be effected. Here is why...
Modern scopes that are parallel to the bore have a 0 MOA mount, and they typically have difficulty achieving zero at distances past 600 yards. This happens because you have to angle the barrel up in order for the bullet arc to reach your desired distance. When you angle the barrel up, the front of your scope goes up meaning your adjustment has to be brought down. Scope adjustments can only be brought down so far before you bottom out, and this is where plus size MOA scope mounts come in to play. The larger the MOA of the mount, the closer the FRONT of the scope will be brought down to the barrel. When you bring the front of the scope closer to the barrel, you free up adjustments on your scope, allowing you to achieve longer distance zeros. Increasing the MOA on your mount has a negative effect on close range zeros, typically under 100 yards and being more prevalent under 50 yards. For close range zeros, the barrel will be pointing downward, meaning the scope adjustments have to go up. If the front of your scope is at a downward angle as well, this limits the amount of adjustments you scope can make going up, creating the problem. It's basically the polar opposite of a 0 MOA mount that can not achieve a long range zero.
A little note for shooters: Any modern scope mounted to a standard 0 MOA mounting system will have enough adjustments for shots at 0-500 yards, regardless of caliber.

[QUOTE=LorencBag;38634970]So to the replies regarding the pistol price range. I'm thinking of maybe at most 500. I was contemplating on either a .45 m1911 variant or something around the glock variants. I have shot .45s, an AK etc etc. However that was literally 6 years ago and haven't really done anything since then. Plus it wasn't aiming either it was just shooting wildly in the air but I have a good eye and perception in aiming.[/QUOTE]
If your comfortable with .45 then I would go with that or 9mm because both are easy to shoot (I don't understand why .40sw exists so i fear it and hate it.) 9 is cheaper than .45, and a Glock can be had for under 500... if Glocks don't tingle your cocks... then head to the local shoppe and find a thing that feels good in hand, then tell us what it is so we can judge it, then decide to buy or not, then post pics. Rinse and Repeat. Got it?
One of my friends said that the AK fires the same round as the M1 Garand. He wouldn't believe me when I said that 30-06 is nothing like 7.62x39mm. I even drew a picture of the two rounds to scale and then he said "I don't care, I think they're the same, ect."
