		Since many antitank guns of obsolete models still are in service, the Germans have introduced the stick bomb, another development of the hollow charge, in an effort to make the most of such equipment.

	fourten shotgun resources - ALOOF

		In about 1962, Savage redesigned the hammer of the Model 24 to incorporate a selector on its tip which could be set to fire either barrel by simply tilting it up or down and which was quite positive.

	On German Antitank Artillery
		During the war, antitank guns increased in size relative to the increased size of the tanks it was expected to defeat.

		Guns N’ Roses didn’t release any music with Tracii on guitar (although he had co-written some of the music that would later appear on their albums), but his name is half of the band’s name, so his association with the band is not easily overlooked.

		The LA Guns set out on the reunion tour in October of 1999 and recorded a live album in their hometown of Hollywood which was released in February of 2000 called ‘Live: A Night On The Strip’.

	The .300 Savage
		The.300 Savage was introduced in 1921 for the Savage Model 99 lever-action rifle and has since been chambered in many other rifles: bolt actions, pumps and semi-autos from Remington and Winchester, and bolt actions from Savage.
		The.300 Savage has a shorter overall cartridge length of 2.6 inches compared to the.308's 2.8 inches, and because the.300's length was originally dictated by the length of the Model 99's magazine,.300 Savage bullets have to be seated more deeply than.308 Win.
		While the.300 Savage is not ideal for heavyweight bullets, it can easily be loaded with lightweight varmint bullets from 110 through 130 grains, giving the round a lot of versatility.

	Battered Plaintiffs - injuries from hired guns and compliant courts, by Jean Lennane
		The two main situations where hired guns are employed are in whistleblowing cases, when the employer wants to discredit and if possible get rid of the employee; and in Workers’ Compensation cases where the employee is claiming for a psychiatric injury, and the employer wants to avoid liability.
		However many still do; some really have no choice but to try; some are caught up with ‘hired guns’ while still employed, forced by the threat of losing their jobs for refusing to obey a lawful order.
		In this situation the employee is usually claiming for post-traumatic stress disorder, and the hired gun’s task is to show that he/she does not or could not have such a condition, despite in some cases the precipitating event having been extraordinarily traumatic by normal standards, e.g.
