  • What happens to grandfathered items that are willed if they become illegal?

    As a person who has willed a few rifles to someone; some antiques, some the so called "assault rifles" etc... I am wondering... if perhaps some of them become "illegal" and grandfathered in by the time of death... will that circumvent the will?

  • Why is the military such a prime example of how not to treat firearms?

    You'd think it would be the opposite but I noticed that military firearms are generally in terrible shape. And whether it be the Vietnam era, with the idea that an AR was "self-cleaning," or modern day... the military seems to have very lousy care of equipment. Is it really just because they have the same rifles / sidearms for so long? I thought my M9 Beretta was in worn shape (8 years and 20k rounds later) but when somebody from the Army or Marines see it they sometimes can't believe how well it looks and functions. Which leads me to believe that military treated equipment often gives a bad reputation of the the product in question. (M9 Beretta for example). I just hope most equipment looks better on the inside than it generally does on the outside. Particularly barrel wear.

  • Why did Yahoo Answers delete my question an hour later?

    There was literally nothing racist, derogatory or harmful about my post. I literally just asked about certain guns in the military... Do a bunch of self-righteous liberals run Yahoo or something??? I got no email or notification or nothing. It just got deleted...

  • Why does Google and Facebook have to participate in aggressive Government Interrogations?

    I don't like Facebook, I haven't had facebook for quite some time. But looking at it from running a business perspective... Why does Zuckerburg for example have to tolerate being treated like that 50 times a year in front of congress? I am missing a lot of the detail obviously but it doesn't seem like he should have to tolerate them on that capacity. If I were him I would be putting them in their place and not letting that ***** interrupt me 100% time (saying yes congresswoman) and telling her if she doesn't wish to hear an answer, get up and literally walk out. What are they going to do.

  • Is it a crime for somebody to unplug a private security camera?

    Inside a personal home there are some security camera's during reconstruction. A construction worker inside the personal home purposefully unplugged a security camera without knowledge or permission and removed an outlet he didn't need to remove for "electrical" work. The camera is now permanently disabled without a power source. I am in Washington State and have been trying to find specific laws regarding this but having difficulty. Is this a crime?

  • Why does coffee taste like plastic?

    I'm getting irritated because I have a coffee pot I have never had a problem with before. But no matter what coffee I use I randomly get pots of coffee I just instantly dump because it tastes like plastic or just some odd taste. It didn't used to do this. I even replaced the reusable coffee filter. But I have not had this problem before and the pots not even 6 months old.

  • What handguns have a smooth action like an M9?

    I've had an M9 for years and its slowly getting worn out. I like the look and feel of glock's but I don't like the slide. In fact I have noticed 90% of actions on handguns are like this. I don't like barrels that aren't fixed (and even arc up when the slide goes back). I think this is one of the reasons the M9 is one of the most accurate handguns ever used in service. I know not everybody likes it. But its action is butter smooth. And I find it frustrating that when I go handgun shopping, the majority of handguns don't have this butter smooth feel to the action. Thoughts?

  • Is it safe and non-damaging to put a car on two jacks one side?

    Typically you put two jacks under a car on the fronts or rears. What I essentially want to know is whether its damaging to the vehicle to list it onto one side with two jacks at the front and rear of the left side only?

  • Why do I wake up faster when I go to sleep super tired?

    So I could spend time trying to go to sleep and then sleep for 10 hours. But if I do something relatively less usual, like getting up at 5:30am and going to bed at 10:30pm (I am super tired and fall asleep in seconds) I usually wake up in about 5 hours excited and ready to get up if I don't force myself to go back to sleep.

    So the question is; why is it when im super tired I wake up much earlier and much more energetic than usual?

  • Where can I have HTML code proof read?

    I am very frustrated because I am actually happy with how a website is turning out other than random glitches depending on what browser its being used in and I have no idea how to get a simple couple pages of coding proof read or adjusted? Is there any convenient way to do that online?

  • Is there a reason people often treat you dumb when you ask a question on here?

    Especially mechanical questions! I repair a lot of things myself very successfully. And I find the biggest educational tool in knowledge is FAILURE! So why is asking a question often treated as idiocy by people on here. Especially car questions with responses like "why you should have taken it to a mechanic in the first place..."

    I have virtually learned how to do most of things I ordinarily do myself through failure and asking questions. I don't see why this is treated as such a negative thing.

  • Messed with Fuses to fix High Beams... Now won't Start?

    I have a 2012 Jetta 2.5. It functioned fine. I downloaded a fuse diagram and replaced the high beam fuses since they were not functioning. However suddenly the car cranks perfectly but does not start. I meticulously checked every single fuse (non-of which are blown) and triple checked they were all exactly in the right spot. Nothing... But I find it a hard to be a coincidence this happened right as I messed with the fuses. But now I am stuck and can't start the car! What could possibly be wrong???

  • Why will my second graphics card not display anything when plugged into a monitor?

    So I have a two graphics card setup. They both show up on device manager. But any monitor that is plugged into the second card is undetectable. I have narrowed the problem down to the card itself. And usually I would presume that it means the card went bad but it shows up in device manager just fine, fully updated. What is the meaning of this? Why won't it activate any monitors plugged into it?

  • Why does my M1 Garand immediately attempt to lock into battery without release?

    Despite many examples to the contrary; I have noticed that my M1 Garand bolt will attempt to lock into battery (the moment I load full clip) without waiting for me to release pressure. Not only does it cause a higher risk of Garand thumb... but I have noticed that not all of these rifles seem to operate in this manner as demonstrated by many Garand experts. It seems to be a topic of huge debate but I have watched a few of these rifles wait for release after the follower has been completely compressed into the magazine. Is this something wrong with my rifle? Is it simply built differently? Or am I doing something wrong?

  • Why do surveillance camera's look like they're raining in infrared?

    I have 3 outdoor security camera's that switch to infrared during the night. They are motion detected so its extremely annoying that they detect what looks basically like heavy rain at times... but nothing is going on outside. I am not sure what it is? Is it just invisible dust only Infrared can see? Other outdoor cameras don't have this problem....?

  • Is it legal to setup surveillance camera's in your own room of a rented place?

    I live with two roommates. I had a feeling one of my roommates goes in my room without necessarily my knowledge. So I bought a safe, locks on my stuff, and a motion activated, text, camera in my room ONLY. Not a week went by and I've already seen him go in my room and take soda's out of my fridge and stupid trivial stuff like that. Hes unaware of the camera or of me being aware of his activity in there. But he likes to manipulate the legal card whenever possible. Can I legally be doing this in a rented place with roommates?

  • Dizziness, Faint, Brain Fog for days?

    For going on two weeks now I have had daily bouts of dizziness, feeling faint and just having brain fog. I am 27 years old so its unusual to have higher concerns but it has created anxiety at this point.

    I went to the doctor and was given a regular physical with a blood panel. The blood results came back great with good liver, kidney function, etc. But the fact is I am still having symptoms and the anxiety of it only enhances it I would imagine.

    Motion can often encourage it. If I am moving about or say looking upside down it further encourages the sense of imbalance and disorientation. And I don't think it could be an ear infection because I neither have ear pain nor was anything seen in there by the doctor...

    I would like to think its dehydration but all the water in the world doesn't make the now daily symptoms go away. I feel best, and most normal, first thing in the morning when I first wake up but, of course, the symptoms naturally occur throughout the day. I am afraid its a heart issue but I also would like to think a general physical would have detected that.

  • Is there such a thing as drinking too many fluids in general?

    I spend a lot of time sitting at a desk and, I suppose its somewhat of an addiction, but I always have to have something in front of me to drink. Just sitting at a desk, throughout the day, I drank a bottled iced tea, two small drip coffees, two or three decafs, and a couple tea's. And I just started wondering; is there such a thing as just drinking too many beverages a day?
