    A by-product of bullet design. Hollowpoint = stability in those bullets.

    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    As far as I know, the M-16 has been around long enough that they KNOW how to keep it clean. That's why the Marines were smart to stick with the 20" M-16. The Afghani's in the Soviet-Afghan war were way out of date. Some of them used rifles as old as muskets. It wasn't their long-arms that...

    Like squeeze said... body armor and unknown threat. Let's look at the Winchester Q3131A 5.56mm load, which is a M193 load (and also the load I like to use in my AR-15s :) ) Muzzle: 3270 fps, 1306 lbs-ft Now let's look at the Winchester RA45T Ranger-T .45 load, something you won't see...

    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    5.56mm still blows it out of the water. Typical military pistol rounds can't even approach the energy levels and effectiveness of a rifle round. Edit: Like squeeze says below, nothing wrong with 9mm by itself. I use 9mm as my choice of defense pistol... in a good JHP it is about equal with a...

    M-16 vs M-4 vs What?

    Police and military forces around the country and world are ditching their 9mm sub-guns and going to 5.56mm short-barrels for this work. 5.56mm is much more effective.

    The real question is, why was he allowed to stay so long.

    Which is funny, because information should never be deemed illegal. Knowing HOW to make a bomb is not illegal... it may be suspicious and end up getting unwanted attention... but not illegal. The digital arena and law really gets under my skin.

    And the big companies actually tend to be the enemy for new technology. They were so huge against CD, DVD, and now MP3 and other digital encoding. Funny, all technology that revolutionized the media industry.

    The laws on copying music, video, etc get very screwed up with regard to fair use law. It is perfectly acceptable to photocopy pages from a book for your OWN personal use, i.e. not for reproduction, etc. Yet somehow it's illegal to copy a digital stream from say a streaming radio station.

    A good warning. Pandora is completely legal. Not sure of the legalities of copying the stream via sound recording software. What's the legalities of holding a tape recorder up to your stereo (remember those days?)? Same thing. Torrents are legal by themselves... it depends on what you're...
