For you firearm enthusiasts...

So I thought I'd share this since I thought it was pretty cool. A guy I know made a program called ShootOFF that allows you to use your webcam and gun to practice shooting when you don't have the time, money or ammo to go to the range. The program is free, and it's open source so people can write their own training protocols...

Basically how it works, is you start off by setting up a target somewhere in your house (like a teddy bear for example). You point your webcam at the target, and then on your computer you draw a pattern over your target and make your own point system. So, for example, you can draw a box over the teddy bears head for 10 points, and the rest of its body would be 5 points.

You then take the firearm of your choice, and chamber a laser round (you can use an NLT SIRT gun, Surestrike Laser Ammo- the one I've been using, Laser Lyte, etc.). Dry fire your gun at the target, which will flash the laser where you were aiming and be picked up and tracked by the webcam.

I've been playing with it for awhile now and it works pretty well, even with the crappy built-in webcam on my lap top. It's obviously no replacement for live fire training, but it's still pretty fun and a great way to practice... it also seems like a great way to teach someone else how to shoot properly and safely.

If you want to try the program with a regular laser pointer, you can download the program here:

An article on The Firearm Blog about it:
http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2013/11/22/shootoff-open-source-laser-dry-fire-training-software/

Lastly, a crappy little video (made from the original release... it's on 1.3 now):

Neat! Laserlyte has something similiar but its pricey for what it is and it isnt as indepth or flexible as this. It might take off.

I guess I think different. I train with most of my guns but don't feel that would help my shooting in any significant way.

I'm guessing a lot of guns will have feed ramp issues with that stuff

My .45 won't. It prefers hollow points to hardball, the wider the better. Problem is that ammunition will probably be banned for civilian use just as the Black Talon was in the 90's

Those bullets are supposed to go on sale today at about $46 per box

how many in a box?

My guess is about five.....

ten at most. those RIP rounds looks sweet, but I can't see how they can possible be cheap.

20 per box. I tried 3 different online retailers, all had sold out within minutes of actually putting them up for sale.

I still think they will jam most tight guns

Billions of rounds purchased and barely anybody in our government is raising an eyebrow. These purchases don't seem in line with reality. Over two billion rounds have been purchased in the last two years. For a government that is so anti gun, they sure are loading up. Fucking twats!

They know exactly what they are doing.

Buying up all the ammo is as paramount as keeping more guns from getting out. The direction and future of this country, on its current trajectory, is long established.

The Supreme Court is about to weigh in on two more gun control debates, over exactly what right to bear arms means, anyone want to guess how their tit is going to be twisted to vote?

Right along the lines of corporations are people, eminent domain for private gain is acceptable, and that politicians can legally be bought off without facing corruption charges.

Our corporate media and government (two ways of saying the same thing) is batshit fucking terrified of the people having any semblance of reality of what is happening in the world around them.

From Bangkok, to Syria, to Venezuela, to Ukraine. Revolutions are happening everywhere. I can list a dozen countries off the top of my head and two dozen more on the verge.

The entire world is in open revolt against their corrupt government representation that is trying diligently to impoverish and enslave them (either through future debt, or outright).

We are no different. Our time will come.

You guys should check out the videos and pictures in that thread. Most amazing display of shit kicking that I have ever seen from a pissed off populace. It makes the game borderlands and movie mad max look silly and safe by comparison.

This is what happens when corporate interests and government get intertwined together into one indistinguishable entity.

Communism is dead, not that it was ever a reality in the first place. Both China and Russia realize the wealth potential of enslaving their people to debt loads the people can not sustain, but keeping with the strong centralized planning theme that gives the political elite so much power.



This is exactly where America is headed. Scratch that, this is exactly where America is.

Corporatism / Cronyism only matters when the opposing ideology is in office.

Just look at the leftists -they dont dare say anything about Owebama and his 'transparent' admin.

Just sayin'

How about a joke?

http://dailycaller.com/2014/02/10/gun-stun-gun-control-activist-swears-he-forgot-he-was-carrying-gun-while-visiting-school/#ixzz2svbenIHg

"A Buffalo, N.Y. community activist who is well known locally for pushing for a highly restrictive 2013 gun control law has been arrested for — wait for it — carrying a gun illegally at a public elementary school.

The arrested gun-control advocate, Dwayne Ferguson, caused quite a scene at Harvey Austin Elementary School, reports local CBS affiliate WIVB. . . " more hypocrisy at the link

almost as funny as this

http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/naacp-bring-photo-id-protest-photo-id-laws

" The NAACP planned a peaceful march to protest the requirement of voter ID laws on Saturday at the "Moral March on Raleigh." Organizers said 20,000 to 30,000 Americans showed up to the protest. Rev. William Barber, president of the state NAACP, stated, "We return to Raleigh with a renewed strength and a renewed sense of urgency. This Moral March inaugurates a fresh year of grassroots empowerment, voter education, litigation and nonviolent direct action."

Read more here: http://www.newsobserver.com/2014/02/08/3601888/annual-march-rally-builds...

In a flyer sent out entitled “Important Do’s and Don’ts for Marchers,” some very responsible marching elements were listed for people's safety.

The most ironic recommendation on the list comes half way down, where march coordinators tell recipients:

“DO bring photo identification (driver's license, passport or other valid photo ID) with you and keep it on your persons at all times.”

So, bring a photo ID to an anti-photo ID protest. Perfect. The Associated Press, naturally, buried this revelation late in its story:

Rep. David Lewis, R-Harnett, said Saturday the NAACP was being hypocritical for directing marchers on a document to bring photo identification when it opposes a photo ID requirement for voting. Lewis helped shepherd a voter ID law through the legislature."



HAHA hypocritical morons

It is.

The more amusing aspect is that they are forced to compromise their so-called 'principles' because it's 'their' team.

So easily bought and reveals the true lack of conviction they have. Otherwise they would be out protesting or giving the same denigrating speech that they gave the previous admin.

As Dumbalt constantly illustrates, these people believe in nothing higher than unwavering party allegiance ....padded by the never ending promise of more free shit.

couldn't agree with you more.
