AR15
In December of 1959, Colt acquired manufacturing and marketing rights to the AR15. In 1962 Colt was able to get the Department of Defense’s Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA) to test 1,000 weapons in its Vietnam-oriented Project Agile. An enthusiastic report led to more studies from the Department of Defense and the Department of the Army, and despite strong Army opposition, Defense Secretary McNamara ordered 85,000 M16’s for Vietnam, and 19,000 for the Air Force.
However, early reports showed that the M16 was not living up to expectations. These reports, presented to McNamara by the Ordnance Department, showed the M16 having reliability as well as accuracy problems. These reports in turn praised the Ordnance Department’s own M14. While the M14 performed well, it was too heavy for the hot jungles of Southeast Asia, and its ammunition also would not allow more than 50-100 rounds to be carried on patrols, severely limiting its capabilities as an automatic weapon.
Further evaluation of the M14 and M16 was done by an independent agency. It concluded that M14 was not as bad as had been suggested by some, that the AR15 itself was not as good as its proponents had represented it to be. However, they did note that the ” AR15” had greater capability for improvement, and that its small size and weight made it a handier weapon in Vietnam.
The M16 was issued w/o proper training and inadequate cleaning supplies. Combined with the humid jungle of Southeast Asia, this caused problems and the rifle gained a bad reputation. Because tolerances were tighter than in previous military arms, the M16 had to be kept extremely clean. War correspondents filed reports where the M16 was jamming, and many were shown on the evening news. It was reported that our soldiers were being killed by a faulty rifle.
This led to Congressional investigations which turned up two related problems. First, the cleaning issue. As training was provided, supplies issued, and some redesign, M16 performed more reliably. The second issue dealt with the use of ball propellants instead of IMR propellants. Remington had developed the 5.56mm round using one type of powder, but the specification was changed during military contract production to allow an alternate. This powder caused more fouling and increased the rate of fire.

ArmaLite sold its rights to the AR-10 and AR-15 to Colt in 1959 after which the AR-15 was adopted by the United States military under the designation M16. Colt continued to use the AR-15 trademark for its semi-automatic variants. The “AR” in AR-15 parts comes from the Armalite name and does not in fact stand for assault rifle as is commonly believed. Today the AR-15 Accessories
and its variations are manufactured by many companies and have captured the affection of sport shooters and police forces around the world due to their low cost, accuracy, and modularity. Please refer to the M16 accessories for a more complete history of the development and evolution of the AR-15 parts and derivatives.
Some revolutionary or otherwise notable features of the AR-15:
Aircraft grade aluminum receiver
Modular design allows for a variety of accessories, renders repair AR-15 sight
Small caliber, high velocity round
Synthetic stock and grips do not warp or splinter
Front ironsight adjustable for elevation
Rear ironsight adjustable for windage and distance
Wide array of optical devices available in addition to or as replacements of ironsights
Semi-automatic and automatic variants of the AR-15 are effectively identical in appearance. Automatic variants have a rotating selective fire switch, allowing the operator to select between three modes: safe, semi-automatic, and either automatic or three round burst depending on model. In semi-automatic only variants, the selector only rotates between safe and semi-automatic.

Surefire is a California-based company specializing in the production of high-quality “flashlights”. Commonly found within the law enforcement and military fields, Surefire flashlights are also used in the civilian market for personal, occupational, and self-defense purposes. Their lights are often featured in TV shows and movies, such as the television show CSI.
Surefire models range from a typical 2-cell Xenon light to a large 20-cell HID model. They have also recently introduced a line of LED flashlights which offer several unique features such as electronically-controlled power regulation and modular assembly.
Most of their flashlights are powered by Lithium 123 A batteries that allows for compact size and weight while maintaining high power output and long runtime. The main material used in the construction of Surefire flashlights is CNC machined aerospace grade aluminum, with an option for mil-spec anodizing. Some models use Nitrolon, a proprietary impact-resistant, non-conductive, glass reinforced polymer.
Surefire’s most popular product is the 6P Original. It is very compact, at only 5.1 inches (130 mm) long and weighing 5.3 oz (150 g). It uses two Lithium 123 A batteries to produce 65 lumens of light, which is roughly twice the output of a typical three D-cell flashlight.

August 28, 2006 on 9:01 pm | In Uncategorized | 1 CommentRifle Scopes
Until the 1990s, military use of telescopic Rifle Scope was restricted to snipers because of the fragility of optical components, though they had been used as early as the American Civil War on rifles, and even earlier for other jobs. The glass lenses are prone to breakage, and environmental conditions such as condensation, precipitation, dirt, and mud obscure external lenses. The scope tube also adds significant bulk to the rifle. Snipers generally used moderate to high magnification scopes with special reticles that allow them to estimate range to the target.
Telescopic Rifle Scopes provide some tactical disadvantages. Snipers rely on stealth and concealment to get close to their target, and a telescopic sight can hinder this. Sunlight may reflect from the lens and a sniper raising his head to use a telescopic sight might reveal his position. The famous Finnish sniper Simo H yh preferred to use iron sights rather than telescopic sights to present less of a target.
The Israeli military began widespread use of telescopic sights by ordinary infantrymen to increase hit probability (especially in dim light) and extend effective range of standard issue infantry rifles. Palestinian militants in the al Aqsa Intifada likewise found that adding an inexpensive Rifle Scopes to an “AK-47″ increased its effectiveness.
Today, several militaries issue telescopic Rifle Scopes to their infantry, usually compact, low-magnification sights suitable for snap-shooting, like red dot sights. American GIs in Iraq frequently purchase their own and carry them from home. The British army fielded the SA80 rifle with a 4 optical sight as standard issue to allow average shooters to fire more accurately. The Canadian Forces standard C7 rifle has a 3.7 optical sight.

Red dot scopes - NRA-ILA Grassroots Alert Vol. 13, No. 17 04/28/06
August 24, 2006 on 9:35 am | In Uncategorized | 2 CommentsGlow Sticks
Glow Sticks have various purposes: they are used in the military, by recreational divers doing night diving, by marching band conductors for night time performances, and also used for entertainment at parties (especially raves), concerts, and dance clubs. Glowsticking refers to the use of glowsticks in dancing.
By adjusting the concentrations of the two chemicals, manufacturers can produce lightsticks that either glow brightly for a short amount of time, or glow more dimly for a much longer amount of time. At maximum concentration (typically only found in laboratory settings), mixing the chemicals results in a furious reaction, producing large amounts of light for only a few seconds.
Heating a Glow Sticks causes the reaction to proceed faster and the “Glow Sticks” to glow brighter, but for a shorter period of time. Cooling a lightstick slows the reaction and causes it to last longer, but the light is dimmer. This can be demonstrated by refrigerating or freezing an active Glow Stick; when it warms up again, it will resume glowing.

Winchester Rescue Efforts Abandoned
I don’t like to copy and paste and entire article, but I can only find this in an email from The Shooting Wire:
Friday evening, word that the last-ditch attempts by Save Winchester.com and American Firearms Company to save the former US Repeating Arms Company (USRAC) facility in New Haven, Connecticut, had been abandoned. On Tuesday of last week, Olin Corporation, owner of the Winchester trademarks, granted the license to produce Winchester firearms to Browning. That announcement, apparently, was the last shot for organizers hoping to resume the 140 year history of Winchester firearms in Connecticut. Principals in the newly-formed American Firearms Company announced their decision to abandon their attempts to purchase the license and further efforts to purchase the USRAC facility from owner FN Herstal of Belgium. A lengthy letter from Michael H. Blank, a key organizer in the efforts to keep the manufacturing facility that had formerly built Winchester’s historic models 70 and 94 rifles before being shuttered last March, made no attempt to hide the bitterness toward Herstal. “The Belgian management teams at Browning & Herstal have been unresponsive to our last attempts to keep Winchester in American and return it to American ownership,” Blank wrote, “We asked them to name a price, any price and the response was that they want us to tell them how much in continuance of the back and forth delaying game we’ve seen since January. So it looks like it’s over for the dream of a completely American Winchester Firearm, at least for now.” Stephen Oster, the man behind American Firearms Company told the New Haven Register : “We wanted to keep Winchester in America, made by an American company. We were quite surprised and … disappointed that Olin chose this route. We did our best.” Oster, who was backed by several Wall Street private equity firms, said he planned to build a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility within the United States, and to keep at least some parts of the Winchester operation in New Haven. A spokeswoman for the city said New Haven officials will continue trying to find a buyer for the facility. Attempts by The Shooting Wire to reach Browning spokespersons since the American Firearms Company announcement on Friday have been unsuccessful. Industry observers point out that new license-holder Browning is no stranger to the famous Winchester 92. In the late 1970s, Browning built and sold a limited number of “Made in Japan” Browning/Winchesters, known as the B-92 in both .357 and .44 Magnum calibers. At that time, however, Cowboy Action Shooting hadn’t reached its present levels of popularity and the B-92s were discontinued.If anyone has a link, email me with it and I will move this info to my normal format.
