      oldest semi-auto with detachable magazines

      What was the first commercially available semi-auto rifle that used detachable magazines? I think the BAR and Thompsons had detachable magazines but they were full-automatic. The M14 probably joined the military in the late 1950's or early 1960's. But I don't know when it became available in...

      difference twixt CZ P-01 and 75D PCR

      I've been saving up for a CZ pistol and see where a new PCR is available for purchase. But now, I just noticed the CZ P-01 and am wondering if I shouldn't consider that option as well. I can't see much difference between the two models. The only differences I can see are: 1. Rear sight is...

      CZ hammer pistol question - decocker

      I'm thinking about a new pistol and wondering about the de-cocker and double action on a CZ pistol with a hammer. My question is whether you can manually pull back the hammer and fire in single action mode after the hammer has been de-cocked. That is, if I chamber a round, de-cock the hammer...

      a place to buy MRE's

      Is there a place to buy quality MRE's around central Indiana? I think I'd prefer military grade but wouldn't rule out commercial varieties either. I don't need a pallet load full. I just want to play around with a few of them and keep a box handy for camping trips, convenience, or...

      Boker automatics any good?

      I have a hankering to pick up an automatic knife and from what I've seen, the Bokers are about the only thing that falls in my budget. Are the Boker automatics decent knives? Looks like they have AUS-8 steel which I think has a good reputation. I've never had an AUS-8 blade - I hope it's...

      Greenfield Hamfest??? Testing available??

      My next endeavor is to try to get a HAM radio license. I think they call the beginner level a "technician" license, right? I understand there will be testing available on 9/19/15 at the Greenfield/Hancock Co. HAMfest. I hope to take the test then & there if possible. Does anyone know who I...

      what jars for dry oven canning dry goods?

      I'm planning to oven can some dry goods - oats, rice, beans, sugar... stuff like that. I think I pretty well understand the process and what can be canned this way and what cannot. But I don't know what kind of jars are acceptable. Obviously, standard Ball canning jars and lids will work...

      Anybody ever eat Lamb's Quarter?

      I learned about this plant last year and spent a couple of months looking for it. Once I finally found some, I started finding it growing nearly everywhere. I've read from several sources that this is a healthy food if you eat the leaves or seeds. Nutiritionally it is supposedly very close to...

      carry black powder pistol in Illinois?

      I travel through Illinois alot. I understand that black powder revolvers are not legally considered "firearms" but some class of property labeled an antique or collectible or some such. You can order them through the mail. So would it be legal to possess one in Illinois? I would feel pretty...

      how to access arrest records

      I know somebody who I'm pretty sure was arrested on a misdemeanor charge in Marion County. I'd like to find out what they were arrested for just because I'm nosy. Is there a way to access public arrest records on-line without a fee? I'm not finding it using a search engine. Thanks!

      A large standing army

      Was reading a biography of Peter the Great written by Jacob Abbott and came across this little gem: found at: The Baldwin Project: Peter the Great by Jacob Abbott published 1859. Is this concept still valid or has the world changed so much that such is no longer possible? How does this...

      I swear somewhere I have seen a Lee Loader for 12 ga shotshells. I don't find them on Lee's website now or see them listed for sale anywhere. Do they make them or did they make them at one time?

      The season starts with a bang!

      Got out coyote hunting today - first thing this morning and last thing this evening. Had nothing on the morning stand. This evening I was calling my best spot at last light. Called for a good half-hour and nothing happened. It got too dark to see so I pulled off my camo headnet, put my calls...

      LTCH address change

      According to the note on my Indiana lifetime LTCH it is required by law that I notify the Indiana State Police in writing within 60 or 90 days (I forget which now) if my address of residence changes. A couple of years ago, when I moved to a new house, I sent the ISP a letter giving my name...
