ABSOLUTELY! Freedom was born of guns.

John,
Just so won't feel alone on this list; I, also am a 'shooter' and
have many things that go BANG, besides reverse polarity
electrolytics. I'm a handgun target and combat nut. Of corse I load
all own ammo.

Could you be more specific, and perhaps provide a reference?
Paul Mauser's group was pretty fussy about sighting through the
new barrels, and bending them a little here and there to make sure
their bores were perfectly straight. The WWII records on the M1 Garand

It was a paper written around 1942 detailing the procedures used to
align the sights of mass produced rifles for which it was impractical to
have each rifle individually adjusted on a firing range.
Unfortunately I dont think I have a copy of this any longer, however

If I recall correctly, the article was published in the Journal of the
Optical Society of America around that time or perhaps a little later.

I've remembered that I was originally looking for DD Maksutov's article
on his catadioptric telescope published in 1944.
Consequently I had a look at the contents of JOSA for 1944 and I believe

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for the reference.
Bore sights are a system that I use, and I find they work very well.
Some how I misread your initial post in a way that lead me to believe
that you were saying the barrel was being bent to adjust it to target.
Upon re-reading your post, I cannot for the life
Cool. I used systems like this (but a bit faster) for measuring
detonation velocity in explosives. Several wires would run through an
explosive compound and would break as the material detonated. Later
the systems used the same wires but would measure the voltage/current
running through them as

Nope, definietly not a legend... TDR/coax based systems are rather common for
measuring blasts (nuke and otherwise, but not using Ethernet cards).
Basically the shock wave crushes the coax and messes up the impedance as it
propogates. Results are monitored by TDRs. And a fun time is had

Your problem is you only have one clock. As soon as you get two, you
ask a very simple question: which one is right?
But that only makes things worse.
