Rifles are a brilliant demonstration of the progression of optical technology. Superb optics help marksmen pull off difficult shots with greater accuracy rates. The team at Firefield created a detailed timeline of all the critical moments in rifle optics technology. It begins with the invention of the Galilean telescope in 1608 and concludes with the longest sniper kill shot ever recorded in 2023.
The team at Joslyn Law Firm shows us why firearm homicides are still a leading concern for American safety with this infographic showing us the counties with the rates of firearm homicide in both 2018 and 2022. Since 2018, gun violence has unfortunately increased. In 2018, one out of every 100,000 people were killed by a gun as opposed to roughly 5 out of every 100,000 people in 2022. While gun violence has been higher than current rates in the past, the rising numbers are troubling.
In America, tragically, fatality by accidental gun injury is 400% more likely than in other competing nations. Gun safes are the key and answer to the prevention of these inadvertent tragedies. Investing in them, and other gun safety practices, can also put money back in your pocket.
As revealed by the American Federation of Scientists (AFS), China is building a massive missile silo near Hami city in Eastern Xinjiang. The satellite images revealed that the construction is in its early stages and nearly 14 dome shields are shown in the images. AFS estimated that there would be around 110 silos in total.
For decades, China has been operating nearly 20 silos for liquid-fuel DF-5 intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs). According to the reports, around 250 missile silos in China are currently being built.
When you think of gun violence, what type of firearm comes to mind? There has been a big push to get assault rifles banned in the US but, do bad people with assault rifles cause the most damage?
In this infographic, data set spans from 2000 to 2018, and is based upon the 100 most populous cities across America, and compares their rates of fatal police shootings. At the top of the list is St. Louis, Missouri, which saw 36.3 people fatally shot by police for every 100,000 residents. Following St. Louis is Orlando, Las Vegas, San Bernardino, and Miami as the top five on this list. Not only that, but out of the top twenty cities on this list, five are located in the State of California, with them being San Bernardino (#4), Bakersfield (#7), Fresno (#12), Stockton (#16), and Oakland (#19). Last on the list is actually New York City at the #100 spot, where out of every 100,000 residents there, 0.2 people are fatally shot by police.
Police shooting in the United States has been all over the
news for a pasty couple of years. There are several cases of police taken the
lives of innocent citizens without any reason. The most recent case that has
brought the entire humanity together is the killing of George Floyd. He was a
black man who was brutally killed by a policeman in Minnesota. Police officers
are known to be safeguards of the people of their country, but in the United
States of America, police seem to have a whole different motto.
Science fiction is by far one of the most popular genre’s of entertainment on the planet. Science fiction extends from books and movies to TV and comic books. Science fiction in the arts is widely believed to have begun around 1620 with Johannes Kepler’s novel, Somnium.

The goal is for people to be able to decide which steel types fit for their needs and wants, so that way they can avoid paying extra for something they do not require.
