    DOJ, SAF REACH SETTLEMENT IN DEFENSE DISTRIBUTED LAWSUIT Pretty amazing outcome. This is going to take the winds out of the sales of the anti's (although they will just probably ignore it). https://www.saf.org/doj-saf-reach-settlement-in-defense-distributed-lawsuit/ "Significantly, the government expressly acknowledges that non-automatic firearms up to .50-caliber – including modern semi-auto sporting rifles such as the popular AR-15 and similar firearms – are not inherently military." “Not only is this a First Amendment victory for free speech, it also is a devastating blow to the gun prohibition lobby,” noted SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. “For years, anti-gunners have contended that modern semi-automatic sport-utility rifles are so-called ‘weapons of war,’ and with this settlement, the government has acknowledged they are nothing of the sort.

    Remington Golden Bullet is cheap for a reason - it's dirty and inconsistent. Mini mags are made at higher quality/qc standards. They'll be slightly more accurate and a little bit cleaner burning. I've noticed with Golden Bullets, sometimes the bullet itself will turn in the cartridge. That may not be the case anymore with the "new and improved" Golden Bullets.

    I am a 30 year + IT professional. OP, excellent thread and advice. In all instances, I use different difficult to guess passwords. Whenever 2 way authentication is available, I use it. For keeping track of what has grown to over 300+ user ids and passwords, I use Keepass. I have it installed on my home pc and all database changes are done there. I periodically copy the db file to my iPhone which I treat as read only. Keepass is straightforward and has fit my needs. I specifically did NOT want a program that autofills websites. Now if I could only convince my wife to think the same regarding password selection .....(:-)

    We'd be interested in going and bringing some CNJFO swag with us along w/ brochures & applications. We'd also be interested in helping/sponsoring some of the food since so many of our members would already be there and the interest level shown on this thread indicates plenty of new faces. Promoting the Second Amendment is what we're all about, so count us IN Troy! Rosey

    Sorry for your loss. I believe this fits the bill for inheritance. If I were you, I would delete the topic/post (to keep this private) and go pick up my gun.

    We actually already secured care credit, it was our best option too.

    We just went thru this with my older Border Collie a few months ago. We used the Care Credit plan to pay the vet and are paying it down QUICKLY so as to not invoke the interest rate kicking in. He's an amazing pooch and only 9, so it was our only option. The vet and surgeon did an awesome job. And yes, 6-8K is the going rate for this. If the dog was a human, it would be much more. At the end of the day, it is surgery, after all. Good luck.

    I got an email today about an account I have not used much recently. It told me of a new login, and then a new email about my primary email address had changed. Now, first thing, I know a lot of you are using phones for internet, but the nice thing about using a real PC is you can hover over links to see if it is indeed the correct link (i.e. Microsoft isn't sending you to paswordstealer.cn instead of microsoft.com ). Using a phone, it is harder to verify where you are going to go if you click a link...so be aware of that too - there is a LOT of phishing out there. Anyway, I was able to reset the email back to my email account, got in touch with support, and regain the account in fairly quick order. It isn't something that critical (a game account), but it could easily be bad. If I had used the same password for multiple accounts (especially my email), there would be the real possibility that the hacker could have access to anything linked to that account, or to try and get into other accounts. Since every service seems to constantly spam you, anyone who now has access to your email could know where you have accounts, intercept anything like updated email addresses/passwords/password resets, and wreak havoc in your life. Be sure that - if absolutely nothing else - your email account(s) and financial accounts use a totally different password from ANY other accounts you have now or ever have used. If you have the possibility of using 2 factor authorization, DO SO, especially for banking accounts or anything linked to bank accounts (paypal, ebay, etc). It usually involves a 4-6 character code sent to your cell phone via text that you must enter before logging in or when doing certain activities. Don't use dumb passwords that are easily guessed. I sincerely hope no one here uses 123456, password, or their full name as a password. Use a gun name and serial number/year, or use a phrase, or use the name of something always on your desk, or anything else not easily guessed, add in a symbol and number or two, and you've got a password. If you are forgetful, perhaps use a similar format (change a few things for each individual site) if you must. And if you are really forgetful, write down a HINT, not the password itself. If your password is "Mosin~1937Nagant", I'd think a written hint like "Russia '91" would be a decent hint that would be meaningless to someone else If your password is "IHateMyNeighbors@5", perhaps "noisy dogs" would be a good hint. Back many years ago, someone I knew asked me to see if her account was secure. It took about 5 guesses before I was into her account. (I mean, it was a yahoo account, but still, I guessed her password based solely on knowing her name and how her account name was displayed.) There is a lot of information on you out there. Don't make it any easier for someone to screw you. If the potential payout is good enough, someone can and will try.

    I fucking hate this state. Well, looks like this isn't worth it for me given the length of time I plan on being there (as short as possible). Thanks for the feedback everyone.

    You can get 5K minimags for about 300.00 shipped. That lowers a bit your cost/round. https://www.targetsportsusa.com/cci-mini-mag-high-velocity-22-long-rifle-ammo-40-grain-copper-plated-round-nose-0030-p-892.aspx Golden bullets are dirty and have the occasional FTF but not to the frequency that causes an issue. Just rotate the cartridge so the pin strikes an different area and you are good to go. Minimags and gold feed equally as well on my 10-22 and P22. As Krdshrk says the bullet is lose in the casing but that never causes an issue either. I've shot thousands of each and only prefer the minimags because they are cleaner.

    I'm thinking Trump is keeping Barret in his back pocket to replace RBG. By replacing RBG with a another woman he is taking that particular talking point away from the Dems.

    I second Keepass. I use it personally and it's what my company uses as well. Another useful resource to keep an eye on if anyone is worried that they have been breached in anyway is : https://haveibeenpwned.com/ Plug in your email address and it will tell you if that email has been part of any major breaches and/or if its been found in any pasted on any known login/password black sites

    No, but you'd need at least a jeep and that sure as hell isn't hand held.

    What a nightmare. Ginsburg is going to retire whether she likes it or not. She should have been censured when she commented on Trump’s presidential run. If she and Breyer drift off the court will be set for the next 40 years.

    Jagerwerks does great slide work as does Loki Tactical. Prefab though I'd say Zev, Southwest, L2D. Barrel/Comp: Primary Machine stealth comp, Agency barrel/comp, Texas Black Rifle Co, Mayhem Syndicate, Black List, Faxon... too many to name really. Barrel is a barrel in my opinion, some just have a bigger bling factor than others. Triggers: Agency, Apex, Overwatch, Tactical Trigger/Kineti-Tech which is what I am currently using.

    No way this is legit. It's virtually impossible to create such a weapon because of the limits of laser technology. There are very powerful lasers that can burn the crap out of stuff, but they are large and demand a huge amount of energy.

    @Smokin .50 of you want to read the whole story on "The Sailor Kissing the Nurse" get "Eisenstadt on Eisenstadt". Eisenstadt tells the story on that and more of his famous photos.

    Eisey had many a great image. The Sailor kissing the Nurse (dental assistant) was taken with his Leica rangefinder I was mentored by several award-winning Photojournalists, my dad among them. I almost went to see Eddie Adams at his upstate, NY "Barn" Class, but couldn't get out of doing assignments as a freelancer since so many full-timers went. As a member of both the NJ Press Photographers Association & the National Press Photographers Association I got to schmooze with the "Movers & Shakers" of the time in our field. One such mentor & friend was F. Patrick Burnett, Chief Photog at the Woodbridge News-Tribune, which has since folded. Pat Burnett was the NJPPA Photographer of the Year several (3?) times during his exciting career as I was just starting in PJ out of high school. Back then you could smoke cigars in the Photo Lab while you processed film & prints!

    Liberty safe moved my 1000+LB safe with ease. They have the right straps, rollers, and sliders to do the job. Safe doesn’t have to be from them or even a liberty safe. My move had a bunch of turns, steps, and other obstacles. Would highly recommend them.

    Unless he is a prohibited person, it is nothing like a straw purchase. Jesus, some of you are like a bunch of old farts. You give the kid a hard time because he hasn’t posted much range and shooting type stuff. You told him he’s a new shooter and he should post some questions to get the most from this forum. So, he posts range stuff and you jump all over him, pick him apart on what you think are technicalities. Red or Blue, Baby Boomer, Gen X, or Millennial - it doesn’t fucking matter. He’s a fellow gun owner for Christ’s sake, and a new one at that. Like it or not, that makes him one of us. Knock it off for fuck’s sake. This is a perfect opportunity to mentor a young shooter, but some of you are out for blood so bad you are going to miss the opportunity because you are acting like a bunch of liberal douchebags. We’re supposed to be better than that. Shame on some of you. Eat our own indeed.
