Hold that dull bit up to the light, then head for the grinder. Your eyes can detect problems as well as any gauge.

We have yet to meet a gunsmith who knows all there is to know about repairing, improving and servicing all kinds of firearms. Nor have we ever met one who’s discomfort level fails to rise when a gun he’s never worked on, or hasn’t seen in years, comes in. Unless you specialize—rifles only, pistols only, shotguns only, stocks, engraving—you can ill afford to turn down work unfamiliar to you, yet you can’t afford not to if performing it could create a dangerous situation. That’s why books take up much space in the best shops. They’re our safety net, and they have proven their value many times by showing a way to fill a customer’s needs.

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.

WASHINGTON, D.C.--The United States Senate recently approved the FY2010 Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Bill Conference Report, which included an amendment to protect the use of pocketknives.

How to use this search engine

You can use any of the three search methods that operate on GunReports.com’s search engine – Boolean, set logic and natural language. Read below for a brief guide to each:

Boolean
This common search method lets you easily combine terms by using programming devices called "operators" such as "AND," "OR," "AND NOT.” The GunReports.com search engine uses this method as the default search system, and assumes the operator “AND” when more than one term is being searched.

AND requires all terms appear in a record.
OR retrieves records with either term.
AND NOT excludes terms.

Parentheses may be used to sequence operations and group words. Parenthesis MUST be used when searching using the operator “OR”.

Wild Card Character

For broad searches, you may use an asterisk (*) to represent multiple characters. For example: computer* would return items such as computer, computers, computerized, computeristic, etc. Please note: A "*" may be used only at the end of a search term.

Set logic
Set logic method is based on the mathematical concept of sets. The default behavior of the search is to locate an intersection (or 'AND') of every element within a query. This means that the query; "procurement regulation interface" is the equivalent to the boolean query: "procurement AND regulation AND interface."

Set logic operators

• '-' (without)
  The '-'(minus) is the most commonly used logic symbol. It means the answer should EXCLUDE references to that item.
• '+' (mandatory)
  The '+'(plus) symbol in front of a search item means that the answer MUST INCLUDE that item.

Sets (or lists) of things are specified by placing the elements within parenthesis, separated by commas. Example: (procurement,regulation,interface)

Natural Language Query
This method is based on a close approximation to how people normally phrase questions in spoken communication. You may enter a query in the form of a sentence or question. Key words and phrases within your query will be identified by the search engine and extraneous words deleted from the search.
Example:

What is the state of the art in text retrieval?

state of the art AND text AND retrieval.

Search parameters

You may enter specific parameters on the search engine input fields, or you can leave them blank. If you do not change or set the various search parameters, the default search is for all time periods, in all topics of GunReports.com, and ranked with the most recent first.

Document relevance

gun-test.com’s search engine is “tuned” to locate search terms within a specified proximity of each other, to achieve the most relevant result possible. Most search queries will produce the best results if the default setting, “Medium,” is used.
