Every gun barrel produced today is bored and machined which causes stress in the microstructure of the metal. Guns are created from forgings and castings that cool at different rates, inducing residual stress. Your gun may shoot well, but it is not shooting to its potential.
If you cryogenically treat your gun barrel, you will see several immediate results. Cryogenic treatment utilizes liquid nitrogen to bring the temperature of your gun barrel down to -300°F. The gun is then kept at this level for 24 hours, which relieves the residual stresses. When fired, a gun barrel heats up and distorts or warps every time you pull the trigger. This results in lost accuracy. Once a gun barrel is cryogenically treated, you will see improved shot groupings. This improvement will last the life of the gun as cryogenic treatment is a one time permanent process.
Several shotgun manufacturers have incorporated cryogenic treatment in their manufacturing processes. They found that shotgun the shot groupings of non-treated guns shifted as much as 10" to 12". After the same gun was cryogenically treated, the groupings shifted less than 1" (.075") . Therefore, accuracy is always dramatically improved after cryogenic treatment.
Benefits of cryogenic treatment of your gun barrel:
- Increased wear resistance for easier cleaning
- Reduced friction, heat, and wear for an improved barrel life
- Improved shot groupings resulting in improved accuracy
- Increased velocity of about 50-60 feet per second
Recently the Cryogenic Institute of New England, Inc. cryogenically treated 19 Remington 700 Light Tactical Rifles for Sgt. William Keith of the Maine State Police. The Maine State Police had these sniper rifles processed for improved accuracy in hostage situations.
For more information on the cryogenic treatment of gun barrels, visit the Cryogenic Institute of New England site.

Today, Wednesday, May 14, Governor Sonny Perdue (R) signed House Bill 89 into law. This NRA supported measure makes numerous improvements to Georgia’s Right-to-Carry laws and represents the most comprehensive pro-gun reform measure to be enacted in nearly 20 years.
This critical Right-to-Carry Reform legislation will strengthen Georgia’s current laws by:
- allowing licensed carry permit holders to possess a firearm in any private motor vehicle, while on any publicly accessible parking lot;
- prohibiting gun dealer entrapment schemes, such as those orchestrated by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg;
- allowing concealed carry permit holders to carry in State Parks, recreational areas, wildlife management areas, and public transportation;
- creating a stricter time limit for various stages of the concealed carry license application process; and
- allowing concealed carry permit holders to carry in restaurants.
Please contact the Governor TODAY and thank him for protecting our right to self-defense by signing HB89. Governor Perdue can be reached by phone at (404) 656-1776 or via email by clicking here.

Call To Action: The Atlanta Journal - Constitution Asking
For Opinion on House Bill 89, Right-To-Carry Reform Bill, Awaiting Governor Perdue's Consideration
Please email Northwest Opinions editor, Carla Caldwell Today!
The Atlanta Journal - Constitution is asking:
Should Perdue veto the bill? Or should it become law? Please send comments to Northwest Opinions editor Carla Caldwell at ccaldwell@ajc.com.
To view the article, please click here.
To keep track of this critical Georgia legislation and other Second Amendment issues around the nation, please visit www.NRAILA.org.
Below is the short email we sent to the AJC today:
"It would be a pleasant change to see the anti-gun activists working towards ensuring that people who commit violent crimes are punished. Instead, it seems they would rather work towards eliminating our Constitutional Right to defend ourselves from those criminals. If they have it their way, we will eventually live in a society where criminals can simply have their way with us because we have no means of defending ourselves. Law abiding citizens have a constitutional right to carry/own firearms, period!"
Please do your part and contact the AJC to let them know that you are a supporter of the Second Amendment.

Though he’s well known for his anti-gun policies, and every year sends several anti-gun bills to his state’s legislature, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley recently announced that Chicago police would soon be outfitted with M-4 carbines.
"Daley pointed out that the Illinois State Police, Chicago SWAT units and other police departments around the country already carry high-powered assault weapons," the Chicago Tribune reported. "He said the weapons will better match the Chicago police officers against criminals with sophisticated weapons, such as high-powered assault rifles."
"Many times [Chicago police are] outgunned, to be very frank," Daley said. "When they come to a scene, someone has a semi-fully-automatic weapon, and you have a little pistol, uh, good luck."
The mayor did not explain what a "semi-fully-automatic weapon" might be.
— Brian McCombie
You know... The thought process of anti-gun people always amazes me... Notice the comment about how "many times Chicago Police are outgunned...." Well, I certainly commend Mr Daley for wanting to ensure that the men and women of the Chicago Police Department are able to defend themselves if necessary. I just hope that he doesn't forget that, although the vast majority of us are not employed by the Chicago Police Department, we still have the constitutional right to defend ourselves and to not be "outgunned".... Or, would his phrase, "uh, good luck" be his response to us?
