Mikes Shooters

Nikon have always provided a great range of scopes for shooters everywhere. Nikon recently introduced a new scope that provides some stiff competition for other scope manufacturers in terms of excellent brightness - even in low situations; which is often the most challenging environment for many scopes. With a light tranmission of 95% the new Nikon scopes allow you to see well into the evening so your shooting doesn't end prematurely. The Nikon Monarch UCC is a variable power scope with 3-9x40 topped off with a matte finish. Like most of the other Nikon rifle scopes, this sight comes with 95% light transmission as well as an Ultra ClearCoat technology that allows for great anti-reflection in the...

Everything seems to be going up in price. Ammunition prices have increased along with the prices for guns and everything associated with it. Practice makes people better at anything that they may attempt. To be proficient at hand gunning or rifle shooting takes a lot of practice. Some say that you can do a lot of your practicing with smaller arms like the 22 rim fire and the pellet or BB gun in place of shooting the larger firearms To become adept and know your favorite firearm you have to spend a great amount of time with that firearm. You have to memorize the trigger squeeze and become knowledgeable with every aspect of your firearm. Shooting from different angles and positions...

This thought-provoking article introduces the reader to various applications of the Christian worldview to a host of political, social, theological and economic issues. Seat belts are required for this ride.The issues chosen represent a selective sample from Carson's studies. The Mandate aims to provide something of an overview of what a Christian nation would look like; for "righteousness exalts a nation," and "blessed is that nation whose God is the Lord." Boy, is this going to be controversial or what.1. National Covenanting.The Law of God requires the conjoining of U.S. churches and citizens into a National Christian Covenant with Almighty God, to honor the Person, Redemptive Work (Gospel), and...

In the 60s and 70s when girls were playing with their EZ Bake Ovens and making butter, boys were playing with their guns. And boy did they have a ton of them to choose from. In this second of a 3 part series, we'll take a look at some more of the guns kids had to choose from during those times.In our previous article we talked about the Man From Uncle set. Well, that wasn't the only spy set that you could get during the time. The 1960s also saw the Secret Agent Transmitter Gun. This was a very unique piece of equipment. It looked like a radio but it fired bullets. It's not very big at 5 inches by 3 inches and doesn't look very real. But kids loved playing with this thing because it was so...

In my experience, there are three basic kinds of people. Wolves (a.k.a. the bad guys) are the first kind. They are the human predators, the ones that prey on the weak. The Sheeple (sheep + people) are individuals that believe it is society's duty to protect them. These people blindly submit, even if it means death because they cannot bring themselves to use force. The third type of person is the Shepherd. Shepherds are those people who are strong and alert. They can protect themselves. Shepherds protect the weak because it is right and because they care. Police, Firemen, Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines are shepherds, but they are not the only ones. You don't have to be one of those ready...

It is imperative right now that we plan ahead and remain the leader of the free world. While other nations are growing rapidly they will go thru Industrial type revolutions as we did. But in the high-tech age more modern technology will be added to that. If we are to remain in the lead we will need to advance faster and faster to keep up with the pending technology curve. By spending monies in Research and Development now we can assist our companies, government, schools, space program and military keep up with that future challenge. By putting forth monies in Defense Spending we will be able to have incredible spin off technologies in health care and lower our outlays as our population ages and...

Native people seemed to always embellish their possessions. Whether it be shirts or weapons of war, they always added character to their bare necessities. This time consuming practice could add meaning and personalization to their possessions. With the introduction of the white man into their native lands the indians began to adopt aspects of the white mans society in order to compete with him. Some of the white mans ways actually made it easier for the native american to exist. The bow had always been important to the indian. With the white man came the introduction of firearms. The indians adapted to this new form of power but also added touches of their own. The firearm became an object...

The first rule of safety when you buy an airsoft gun is to make sure you know how to use it correctly. In the case where you are not aware of safety rules, you should give your best in trying to find them out and following them. Due to negligence as to the safe use of these guns, the mortality rate related to airsoft guns reaches approximately four deaths per year in the United States. One of the most overlooked safety rules is that you are not allowed to shoot at a flat surface, wall or water because of the tendency of the bb's backfire effect. Another thing overlooked by children and beginners is that they should never reuse the ammunition, even though it might be more expensive to buy new one...

Concealment, though it is often confused with camouflage is really much more. You cannot simply go out and buy a Ghillie Suit or some other high quality camouflage and expect to remain concealed. Concealment is the skill or art of keeping from being seen, found, discovered or observed; camouflage is just one step in concealment. For this article we will use the example of a deer hunt, we will discuss how to keep concealed in different types of hunts, and how to place yourself in a position to get a good shot. There are typically 3 different types of deer hunting. Stationary hunting typically from a tree stand or blind is a method often used for bow hunting. The "Scope and Stalk" method also...

It is a sad week in America this week when news broke out about a college student who opened fire upon his fellow students leaving 32 people dead and subsequently taking is own life in the end in a small town college campus in Blacksburg, VA. Seung Hui Cho, a 23-year-old South Korean national and U.S. legal resident, was found dead on the campus of Virginia Tech on April 16, 2007 after going on a shooting spree that reduced the population of this college by 33 students. Many gun and anti-gun advocates would agree that such a crime should not have happened. Some question how the assailant was able to obtain a firearm if he is not legal to vote in a country that gave him only a green card, a status...

There are different ways of looking at the state of the world. Accordingly when it comes to international affairs, leaders propose differing foreign policies to make and preserve peace for their nations. The two most common approach of ideas are idealism and realism, and their offspring, neoliberalism and neorealism, are illustrated by two former Harvard professors and leaders in U.S. government, Henry Kissinger and Robert McNamara. As secretary of defense in the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, McNamara was in the forefront of America's involvement in Vietnam. By 1966, however, he was beginning to question America's role, and in his later years he has repudiated the support he gave to the war...

A berretta is a well known manufacturer and makes guns of high quality. The .25ACp caliber is generally considered ok as a back up gun, but is on the small side for a standard carry gun. I use a 1911 style .45ACP as my normal carry gun. I switch to a Walther PPK in .380ACP when my clothing won't hide a .45. Most people carry a gun that fires a 9mm parabellum, because it is a little smaller than a .45ACP, and is still powerful enough for protection. Of course, a .25ACP gun is a lot better than no gun, but it is a little small to be recommended as normal carry gun. Hawes rim fires are not uncommon. That company is or was an importer of firearms manufactured. Many Hawes firearms were imported from...

The Department of Homeland Security ("DHS"), the brainchild of this current administration, has an operating budget for 2006 of $40.6 billion. After three years and more than $100 billion, have we really reached the point were we can sleep better at night with the knowledge that our "Leaders" are doing everything possible to protect us against those terrorists attacks. According to the Government Accountability Office ("GAO"), nothing has changed since the inception of the DHS in 2003. During their most recent test of nine US border crossings: California, Texas, Arizona, Michigan, New York, Idaho and Washington, the GAO investigators were able to penetrate all nine border crossings using fake ID's...

During the turbulent birth of our country, our forefathers gave us the right to bear arms via the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution. There are many ongoing debates, pro & con on this topic. I for one, am grateful for the 2nd Amendment. Having worked in the law enforcement field for several years, I fully understand that most often, police respond to a call well after the crime has been committed. Crime prevention is relinquished to the individual. In those States that offers the privilege of offering conceal carry licenses, the crime rates have shown to be substantially less than those States with stringent gun control. New York & Washington D.C. Are prime example of States with strict anti-gun laws...

5.2 million 6-19 year old have hearing loss directly related to noise exposure*. Don't let your child be part of this unfortunate group. PEACE & QUIET "Offer your child peace and quiet," says the Noise Center. "Noise poses a serious threat to children's hearing, health, learning and behavior." (And I can't think of an adult who functions well in a noisy environment either.) "Peace" and "quiet" usually go together because without "quiet" there can be no "peace." Aside from turning down the TV and stereo, lowering your voice, and providing the opportunity for quiet time in both their work and leisure, take a look at the toys you allow your children to play with. Fortunately my children didn't suffer...

A widely accepted fact in the gun and firearm industry is that education equals safety. In fact, this rule applies to any industry, and any job. Dr. Piazza and Front Sight Firearm Training Facility understand this. Dr. Piazza is a former chiropractor who realized that too many civilians are unable to knowledgeably and responsibly handle a firearm. This inability and irresponsibility can only lead to disasters and, unfortunately, headlines. With this in mind, in 1996, Piazza founded Front Sight Firearm Training Facility. Through the education that any civilian can receive from Piazza and Front Sight, America has become a considerably safer place to live. Since then, Front Sight has become an enormous...

If you have read any books of Sherlock Holmes, you will encounter an astounding, ideal, keen, and perfect picture of a detective. It is the fictional character created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in his Sherlock Holmes stories during the Victorian times in England. A private detective and investigator nowadays do not necessarily resemble the skills of Sherlock Holmes, but they are quite associated with clandestine works and sometimes dealing with the mess of the felons and how to solve chains of conflicts.

You can search the net for what you looking on guns America or other similar sites. You can purchase from anywhere in the USA but it must be shipped to another dealer in your state.

With deer hunting right around the corner you may be in the market for a rifle. If you are just getting into deer hunting or replacing old faithful, there is no reason you have to spend more than $600 to get a great rifle. The Savage 16FXP3 is a perfect example of a great deer hunting rifle for about $550. It comes with bore-sighted scope, AccuTrigger, and sling. Just add case and ammo. Granted you will probably want to upgrade the scope in the future especially if you have that nice tree stand on the edge of a large corn field.

Factors to consider when using an air rifle for hunting or target practice. Rifle shooting is a skill that one gains with practice. There just isn't another way.

For those of you that don't know Redfield scopes have been manufactured for almost 100 years now. This is a long time for any company to exist - regardless of what they actually produce. Originally the scopes from Redfield were produced in Colorado; however, a few years ago the company was bought out by Blount and the line was actually discontinued for a time. While Redfield had enjoyed a popular history and was at one time known as one of the best known and most popular brands in the industry by the 1990's Redfield was finding it hard to keep up with the competition in the industry. Companies like Leupold were putting increasingly intense pressure on others in the market and Redfield was finding it...

The Colt Gold Cup is popular for NRA bulls eye shooting, custom guns are popular for action shooting. Of course, both of these are fairly expensive. I use several Auto Ordnance 1911s, each customized for the particular type of shooting. It is not difficult to do the customizing yourself by buying parts and kits available through ads in shot gun news. The .40 only due to the fact that it is easier to find high capacity pistols in a 40 than 45 but- I understand your response and consideration of same. I have no problem with the 45, but some shooters have a problem shooting them so I usually split the difference and recommend a 40. I am a believer in spending the money up front for a quality firearm...

Pepper Spray - A Personal Safety Product In January,President George W. Bush signed the reauthorization of the "Violence Against Women Act" without public debate . More than two out of five women have experienced sexual abuse in their lifetimes as per the study by American Journal of Preventive Medicine. Law enforcement is very much aware of this situation and they are doing their part diligently to curb it, but there is only so much they can do. In addition to relying on the law enforcement, you can take initiative to protect your invaluable freedom. You might be thinking that it can be dangerous to even think about self defense when faced with violent crime. An attempt at self defense can turn a...

Like most UFO incidents denied by the U.S. Government, the 1947 Roswell crash refuses to go away quietly. Each time a government spokesperson invents a new explanation to contradict the theory that an alien spacecraft crashed near Roswell, one or more new witnesses come forward to support the original Air Force statement. That statement called the object a 'flying disc' and left us with the impression that the occupants weren't quite human. Milton Sprouse, age eighty-five, lives in Escondido, California. In 1947, he was an engine mechanic and part of the 393rd Bomb Group connected to the 509th Composite Group at Roswell. Milton arrived in Roswell during 1945 after serving on the Pacific Island of...

The works of Ignatius Piazza are impressive by their own rights. Front Sight Firearms Training Institute is the brainchild of Dr. Piazza, a former chiropractor. Founded in 1996, Front Sight is now the nation's largest firearm training facility. According to its website, Front Sight trains more students each year than all other firearms training schools in the nation combined. The 550 acres of land near Las Vegas, Nevada is a prime location for such a school, and it turns out the best-trained firearms handlers in the nation. These statistics pale, however, when compared to the philanthropic and social-betterment activities Front Sight and Dr. Ignatius Piazza have helped fund. As Dr. Piazza firmly...
