Perhaps Darwin's theories hold more water than most people will give credit for.

      Great article by the way. Makes a good point, and reaffirms my belief that my first choice for hoem defense will be my Mossberg 590, and not the AR.
      If I had my druthers I'd have a 16 inch AR carbine with a light and a 30 round mag.

      Till then it's 870.

        I don't know if that's a biological reaction, or just the camera's AWB (auto white balance) algorithm not getting some coloration right.

        Cameras have a hard time adjusting to flesh tones in a variety of lighting situations, esp when they're rapidly changing.

        I, for example, often look pinkish red on cheaper digicams.

        On our cameras, we continually strive to improve our tuning of autoexposure and auto whitebalance algorithms. It's a mix of art & science and takes a lot of data in a variety of environments to get it right.
