Thanks for the tip, Muley! I've never used my guns around salt water. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I recently had a S/S 308 quit shooting,due to corrosion,gunk,crap and [bleep].
The firing pin and it's spring were horribly gunked up and the striker shroud had enough rust within to slow it's locktime down to Wwinny speeds(grin).
Took all apart,as far as she would go and give it the what is super once over(Technical Term). Have put another 1,000rds through her since,with nary a glitch.
I've a collection of rusted S/S that would dazzle many.................

The next step will be laser guns, and the laser guns won't need any of the following: No long barrel with rifling, etc., no bullets, no cases, no powder nor primer, no bolt.
Laser handguns won't need sights, but laser guns to shoot at longer ranges will incorporate electronic sights enhanced for night shooting, and with "zooming" capabilities, as well as recording or taking pictures of the target. The sights will also incorporate "target acquisition" technology that can work through walls, vegetation, and other thin obstacles.

I cant wait for a scope with a range finder built in.as for caseless rounds.when i was in the army i was a tank driver.the 120mm main gun uses caseless ammo. the only thing left after firing was the "aft cap"about 6 inches of what would be a regular case.the rest of the case was made out of some thing that resembled cardboard.the round was also fired like the rem e-tronic.the concept of the e-tronic is not a bad idea.if it wasent for it being the only one out there and you could find ammo and beter selection of calb. i would buy one.some one had to make it first. is there any titanium rifle barrels out there?
