Opioid buyers ID So, if the Democrats are truly interested in saving lives due to the opioid crisis why don’t they take a page out of their highly effective gun control laws and Introduce an Opioid Buyers ID Card. To get one you will have to apply at your local police department, or if you don’t have one at the State Police. You will submit your identification data, and character references, submit to a mental health check and get finger printed. You will get your card for only $5 (plus fees for the mental health check and finger printing). The law will promise to have the card for you within 30 days, unless they decide to take longer. You would also need to apply for Opioid purchase permits, which will only be good for 90 days; but at discretion of the issuing authority can be renewed once for up to 90 days. You will only be able to fill one small prescription a maximum of once every 30 days. It will be illegal to transfer any purchased Opioids to another person that does not hold an Opioid Buyers Card and a valid purchase permit, and this may only be done at a licensed pharmacy. Further, stored opioids must be locked up in your home if you have anyone under 18 living in your residence. Since this is exactly the same as how handguns are regulated in the Socialist People’s Republic of New Jermany, and this has stopped all illegal purchases of guns and gun violence this is a no brainer to introduce. Just think, if it can save the life of one child it is well worth it.

55gr M193 will perform better than 62 gr M855 only because of it's construction. If you want to shoot tight groups buy 69gr 75gr or 77gr OTM. If you just want to hit targets buy 55gr milsurp.

Yes. Absolutely. I would choose a company like Palmetto State Armory to order all of the parts though. The hardware store will not likely have what you are looking for.

I just meant in general when it happens usually something else I learn. On another board a while ago a guy asked a question about having a dump truck drop a load a stone in his yard and some chimed in "watch out the truck doesn't bust up your sidewalk." And the guy replied "I'm not a retard I know". But all i was thinking was wow great advice about the sidewalk.

Un lubed condemns.. and for record. I've met @GRIZ numerous times and I consider him my friend.. for context of our conversation. he is a stubborn old sob though

This thread was a great example of sometimes there is thread drift but it's for a good reason. Soneone asks a question about something (life straw). Someone bashes it (usual in intenet world) then we learn something else (in this case the straw might be adequate but what is more important is transporting water) I like when that happens.

I think he means light as in it looks like the picture was taken in the dark. LOL!

Saw this posted elsewhere: There have been several gunfighting quotes about Wyatt Earp going around for the last few months. If you haven’t seen them, you need to: “When I say that I learned to take my time in a gunfight, I do not wish to be misunderstood, for the time to be taken was only that split fraction of a second that means the difference between deadly accuracy with a sixgun and a miss. It is hard to make this clear to a man who has never been in a gunfight. Perhaps I can best describe such time taking as going into action with the greatest speed of which a man’s muscles are capable, but mentally unflustered by an urge to hurry or the need for complicated nervous and muscular actions which trick-shooting involves. Mentally deliberate, but muscularly faster than thought, is what I mean.” -Wyatt Earp “No wise man ever took a handgun to a gun fight.” -Wyatt Earp “Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything. You need to take your time in a hurry in a gunfight.” -Wyatt Earp “The most important lesson I learned was that the winner of a gunplay usually was the one who took his time. The second was that, if I hoped to live on the frontier, I would shun flashy trick-shooting. Grandstand play. as I would poison. In all my life as a frontier peace officer, I did not know a really proficient gunfighter who had anything but contempt for the gunfanner or the man who literally shot from the hip.” -Wyatt Earp “From personal experience and numerous six-gun battles which I witnessed, I can only support the opinion advanced by the men who gave me my most valuable instruction in fast and accurate shooting, which was that the gun-fanner and hip-shooter stood small chance to live against a man who, as old Jack Gallagher always put it, took his time and pulled the trigger once.” -Wyatt Earp

Yeah but....you'll also need something to kill all the creepie crawlies that are still on the interior of the canteen. If you've filled your canteen with water through a straw, into your mouth and then into your canteen and run into potable water you can just add the potable water to your canteen(s). If there's enough potable water you can dump the water that you put through the straw and refill with potable. If just put water in your canteen or water bladder to suck through a straw you will still have all kinds of bugs crawling around on the inside. You really would need to have something to sanitize the inside of your canteen. Don't know what they use now but they used to have an empty water bladder and halazone tablets in an aircrew survival vest. The water bladder was clear. Survival school taught if you had no other way to sanitize water let the water bladder lay in the sun for 5-6 hours. The heat and UV light will kill just about anything nasty in that water. Just some things to keep in mind.

I'm planning on going as well. Not sure what day. Right now I'm planning on Sunday but my work schedule may change, new unit, so I have to wait and see

AE223 is your answer. Don't get wrapped around the axle regarding esoteric minutiae. 223 is fine to shoot. Both the duty and training ammo I purchase for me and for my agency is Federal 223. AE223N for training - American Eagle 62gr FMJ T223L for duty - TRU 64gr SP They are close enough in weight and ballistic characteristics that you can zero for one and shoot both with no change.

Unless you want to shoot teenie tiny groups in paper off a bench, just buy whatevers cheapest and brass cased. Wolf Gold, freedom 223 or 556 (reman or new), surplus m193, are all good for plinking. M193 and m855 arent known for the best accuracy... but m193 is all I buy because i can find it sealed and on the cheap from time to time. Its perfectly good to go.

A phone call

@Zeke you could wash it if you had clean water to wash it.

Father's b-day was yesterday....today (saturday) is a possibility

I have been traveling on business for the past month. Am hoping to go to EFGA on Sunday to shoot my RPR for the first time.

So they can either not challenge and have the reasonable need to carry abolished, or ask for an injunction from the Supreme Court? Are there any other scenarios? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

... yea! Haha

Coming to the ANJR&PC annual meeting on Sunday October 15th at The Grand Summit Hotel? The annual meeting & luncheon is FREE to all members (you're a member, right--since your home range is Cherry Ridge?). Then you can hear for yourself what's going on behind the scenes that we don't want the other side to get wind of . FWIW and not to stir any SH!T up, but guess WHO & from WHAT GROUP successfully sued to get New Hampshire to sell non-resident CCW licenses that are recognized in Pennsylvania? The very same license that you (maybe) and a bunch of us in NJ use to CCW in PA.? That's right, Scott Bach & the ANJR&PC! Listen to NJ101.5 fm at all? Notice which group is paying for air time for a pro-2A, pro self defense, pro-CCW ad? That's right, it's ANJR&PC! You want to change the world & get "hundreds of thousands if not a million voters" to swing our way? Radio is a great way. Reaching-out to the public at-large, mentoring new shooters, growing shooting clubs all contribute to CHANGING MINDS. "Crude behavior" is one thing, and slander is quite another. This last juvenile outburst was slander. He probably won't be sued for it though because guys like you would never understand. The "Bad Optics" would give everyone involved in the Second Amendment a black eye. The pit-bull needs a leash Going-off half-cocked just to garner attention isn't what fighting for the Second Amendment is about. Showing an Anti-2A politician speaking-out against stun guns as a defensive tool and then revealing this same politician to be a stalker with a record was pure GENIUS! We'd all like to see more of THAT & less made-up suppositions about collusion and kickback scheme fantasies. Let's for the sake of argument forget about the last outburst. Where do we go from here? Wouldn't it be better to coordinate efforts and save time & money doing so? At the end of the day, you've got to ask yourselves how effective is an organization that deliberately picks fights with the National Rifle Association (and their Institute for Legislative Action: NRA-ILA) and gets away with telling its' membership THAT is the best way to promote the Second Amendment??

To be clear here I dont have a problem with the NJ2AS in fact I very much like their in your face pitbull actions. Their decorum, well that may need some smoothing out... At the very least other towns may have taken notice that a 2A group is watching, ready and willing to fight at a moments notice. Like Mrs P pointed out we need different lanes (tactics) and I like seeing a group thats out in the trenches. NJ hates the 2A and is very active in its oppression of it so seeing actual real time resistance is refreshing and certainly needed. I have trouble buying in to the top secret behind the scenes state level lobbying -could be or couldnt be, how are we supposed to know? Cant be that effective anyway if this state keeps tracking like it has and is threatening to do more oppression in regards to our 2A rights. Nothing ever gets reversed (or grandfathered), wheres the effectiveness in that? And no offense to the groups that work at promoting the shooting sports- its a good thing for sure!- but thats not going counter hundreds of thousands, if not a million voters that swing this state the way its (been) going. So, seeing what the NJ2AS does, despite its sometimes crude behaviour at least to me is about the only good news I ever see in fighting for our rights in the state. Its real and I can see it happening, unlike waiting for big things to happen- that dont.
