Don’t give up if a replacement firing pin is unavailable from your catalog suppliers. Instead, use these tips to solve the problem.

One of the things some gun owners—engineers or fairly well-educated hobbyists who have a good grasp of mechanical things—ask about is how to handle the different kinds of pins in their guns. Particularly, they often want to know if their punches are the right ones, or if they can use a slightly different one without damaging their pins.

“Shouldn't an army base be the last place where a terrorist should be able to shoot at people uninterrupted for 10 minutes? After all, an army base is filled with soldiers who carry guns, right? Unfortunately, that is not the case. Beginning in March 1993, under the Clinton administration, the army forbids military personnel from carrying their own personal firearms and mandates that 'a credible and specific threat against [Department of the Army] personnel [exist] in that region' before military personnel 'may be authorized to carry firearms for personal protection.'

From MonroeRising.com: Recently, a friend and I were lamenting the steady dissolution of our Constitution. It seemed to us that the further our politicians have strayed from the spirit, meaning and intent of the Constitution, the more enervated, disunited and dispirited our nation and its people have become. Discussing how best to remedy the nation’s decline and to restore Constitutional governance, we briefly alluded to the discredited doctrine of nullification about which neither of us knew very much at all. So, I decided to briefly revisit the subject to see what I could learn. In a nutshell, this is it. I hope it will be of some interest to you.

Henry Donates 50 Rifles to NRA Youth Programs

FAIRFAX, Va. -- The National Rifle Association is pleased to announce that Henry Repeating Arms has donated 50 Henry Lever Action Youth Rifles to NRA's Youth Programs Department.

"Henry Repeating Arms takes great pride in continuing our strong support of youth shooting sports programs," said Anthony Imperato, President of Henry Repeating Arms.

The Henry Lever Action Youth Rifle is a .22 caliber firearm featuring an American walnut stock, adjustable rear sight, 12-round capacity, and a 13-inch length of pull. Each donated rifle also comes with a gun case.

Numerous shooting sports programs for youth will benefit from the donation, including NRA Youth Cooperative Organizations such as the Boy Scouts of America, 4-H, Royal Rangers, National High School Rodeo Association, and the National Scholastic Sportsman's Program, among others.

The rifles will be given as prizes and used during shooting events and training. For the past two years, NRA's Youth Programs Department has provided Henry rifles to the National High School Rodeo Association to support their Light Rifle Championships.

"These rifles from Henry Repeating Arms will help to further youth shooting sports programs across the country. Many young people will have the chance to use these rifles for training and competition. We thank Henry for their continued support and dedication to keeping youth involved in the shooting sports," said Larry Quandahl, Manager of NRA's Youth Programs Department.
