    Help! I can't find an Iwo Jima political cartoon I saw; can you help?

    I'm looking for a cartoon that was published several days before the election. I saved it to my phone but inadvertantly trashed it. If you can help me find it, I'd appreciate it very much. It's a cartoon copying the flag-raising at Iwo. Instead of a flagpole and an American flag, a stiff dead...

    Any "Film Noir" experts here?

    When I was about 6-8 years old, my mother took me to a theater and we saw some film noir sometime between 1956-1960. The movie ended when a big man "stalked" and choked a smaller man (to death?) after the smaller man emptied his handgun into the big man. The scene unraveled as a...

    If you just wanna skip directly to the question, start below the line of plus signs. for "background", just continue here: Back in November I posted a thread asking for advice for a friend--I needed a quick education on scopes for a 10/22, and what semi-auto platforms (10/22s) were the best...

    What sites do ya'll suggest I post on for local sale if no Craigslist/eBay/Gunbroker allowed?

    I think the subject line is pretty accurate. I wanna sell some ammunition locally--face to face only, but I don't know where I can post a "for sale" ad. Do ya'll have any ideas? Craigslist and eBay forbid ammo sales, and Gunbroker mostly requires shipping, and I'm just a private party trying to...

    Are the old Volquartsen LLV barrels threaded for a suppressor?

    I bought a Ruger Mk II that has an old Volquartsen LLV barrel installed. Here's a picture of the LLV: The muzzle looks like this: I have several questions: 1) Is the ring with the 4 holes a thread protector that's meant to allow a suppressor to be mounted? 2) Does anyone know where I can...

    SFP and MOA resolution w/ a Nightforce 5.5-22x56 NP-R2

    It's been years since I've shot my rifles. I can't remember how to use the NP-R2 reticle (SFP). I know that the vertical delineations are 2 MOA and only valid at 22x. I think I remember that if I reduce magnification to 11x, those values double to 4 MOA. Are they 8 MOA at 5.5x ? Thank you very...

    Your advice is needed, please... It's been 25 years since I shopped for a scope...

    I haven't shopped for a scope for myself in a long time. I have a couple GA Precision .308s set up for long range shooting outfitted with old Nightforce scopes. That's all I really know--.308s-- my .22LR expertise could fit in a thimble upside down. A friend wants to get into .22LR "long range"...

    Do you know the title of this book: about an F4U Corsair pilot?

    I'm trying to find a book I think read when I was in high school (class of '68). I think it was published in the 1950s. I'm sure the book wasn't published after 1970. I thought the title was: "Whistling Death: Corsair!" or "Corsair! Whistling Death" but I can't even find an internet page...

    Any Audio Video system experts out there?

    I have a Marantz 7702 MkII preamp/processor. When I use it "normally" it sometimes drops (mostly) the right front channel- once in a while, it'll be a different channel that drops out- the rear left channel or even the side left channel- but no sound will come at all from one channel out of the...

    Michelle debuts on DNC opening night. I got a question...

    I didn't see the speech; I don't follow politics even daily. But I have a question that doesn't make sense to me... Why was Michelle Obama a speaker on opening night? Where was her husband?? Was he not asked or invited, or did he decline? I mean, it either says Biden didn't think enough of...

    Who's old enough to remember Pat Summerall's playing days?

    This is indirectly related to Pat Summerall... I was watching an old Super Bowl game and John Madden commenting with Pat Summerall about a Cincinnati coach named "Dick Mojeleski". I didn't know the correct spelling for the last name. Madden (referring to Dick M.) said something like, "was he...

    which semi auto .308 for hunting only?

    A friend has asked me a complicated question and I've separated it into to questions in this forum. He lives in Japan and can buy only one rifle. He wants a semi-auto in .308 or 30-06. He'll probably hunt with it. I'm sure the game would be deer; there are black and brown bear there, too. I...
