Depending on your choice of projectile wouldn't you still get a bit of lead fouling with smokeless?

It's the jobs that reduced the crime.

Unemployment is at a historic low ... hugely important.

The only national 'reciprocity' I would support is constitutional carry.

Giving the fed's more power to limit the constitution on a broader scale doesn't solve the problem.

But, if this would create endless springs of liberal tears I'd think about doing it for funsies.

Police don't need a red flag law to take your gun if you show signs of violence in public while armed. This bill is built on the omnibus crime control and safe streets act of 1968 and theoretically calls for a court ruling based on a petition from family, a household member or law enforcement to tak...

Don't think I left that out. Rather I was attempting to address the possibility of wave reinforcement via constructive interference, where two wave fronts meet at the microphone from different angles and effectively 'amplify' the signal being picked up. I first recall experiencing such a phenomenon...

A factor regarding acoustical behaviours which seems not to be taken inter account in this debate is that of wave reinforcement, or constructive interference - the flip side of which is destructive interference. Now I'm no physicist, but based on my relatively casual study of such phenomena it woul...

Protect and Serve has been the motto of LAPD for quite some time but I don't know if it is actually in their charter.

So you can supply proof their numbers are hokum?

I mean, not just off by 1-2 dB which could be fluctuation attributed to atmospheric or ammunition differences between tests ... I want to see some real evidence of unreliability.

That Osprey must be a hella good can outdoors then, at ~120dB it would be quieter than most 22lr cans.
