All New Forged Mil-spec A2 Carry Handle Sight by Leapers/UTG

Ever since mankind started working metal to make tools and implements for daily use, forging has been the process by which all others are measured. Producing parts with superior material strength and cohesion over casting or machining, makes forging the best choice for many Mil-spec firearm accessories. Leapers/UTG has risen to the challenge of making their already widely successful Mil-spec A2 carry handle sight even better by using 7075 T6 aircraft grade aluminum and forging it from one piece.

The forged blank is then precision machined to exacting tolerances. Made right here in the USA, this match grade carry handle is virtually indestructible and mounts easily to all Picatinny railed flat top upper receivers using secure retention thumb nuts and a hardened steel side plate for solid locking. The sight assembly itself is made from steel and has precise windage and elevation dials augmented by dual apertures, making it suitable for tactical use as well as competition. Weighing in at a mere 9.3 ounces, the Leapers/UTG Forged A2 Carry Handle is a maximum performance upgrade for your AR built as solid as a hammer striking an anvil. Read more

Paper on the politicization of the FBI forthcoming in the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences

The abstract     

An FBI report released on September 16th, 2014 makes the assertion that active shooter attacks and deaths have increased dramatically since 2000 – both increasing at an annual rate of about 16 percent. As the headline in the Wall Street Journal stated: “Mass Shootings on the Rise, FBI says.”

But the FBI made a number of subtle and misleading decisions as well as outright errors. Once these biases and mistakes are fixed, the annual growth rate in homicides is cut in half. When a longer period of time is examined (1977 through the first half of 2014), deaths from Mass Public Shootings show only a slight, statistically insignificant, increase – an annual increase of less than one percent.

The FBI’s misleadingly includes cases that aren’t mass shootings – cases where no one or only one person was killed in a public place. While the FBI assures people that it “captured the vast majority of incidents falling within the search criteria,” their report missed 20 shootings where at least two people were killed in a public place. Most of these missing cases took place early on, biasing their results towards showing an increase.
