1 pointWanted to followup on this. Went back to my police station they called NJSP and were told use discretion for the date. She asked if I remember the day I picked them up if not they would put today’s date. I told her I did and that’s when they were dated. Picked up my birthday gift. And all ends well.

1 pointDafuq? How did the EC know who to vote for if the system couldn't count votes fast enough? What's the difference between communicating a states popular vote to the EC, and then the EC votes to the fed? If it was about the inability to communicate fast enough, the EC would have been eliminated as it clearly is an extra step in the process. I mean that's just common friggen sense...

1 pointMade some time this week to get some personal projects off my plate. I love the look of a flush cut/target crown on any pistol and really think it makes Glocks look better. So, I did it. And then I did another one. Polished slide went out for coating. The black Gen4 is from a buddy’s gun. No receivers were harmed (or present) during the machining of this presentation.

1 pointWhen they say "technology," they mean they want people to vote over the internet so all the lazy morons that can't drag themselves from their parents basements to the polls can select our leaders.

1 pointI bought one a few months back , have a bunch of steel cased ammo that'll be wasted in an AK love this little rifle added a 4x12 - 40 NIKON and a Surefire Comp. , The Comp tamed what recoil it had to about 1/2 100 yards steel ammo decent groups bought some brass case name brands to try out then I'll start reloading for a little more accuracy.

1 pointanytime my man....honestly its nice for your shooting buddies as it put everything out in front but you sacrifice a little muzzle rise. I felt it was shooting flatter without it on. I like it

1 pointI love mine. It is a handy, inexpensive gun that comfortably shoots a cheap round that hits hard. What is not to love? I only wish it had iron sights. I have been gravitating away from buying anymore semi-autos lately, opting for bolt and lever guns. I shoot better when I slow down and I save money on ammo. And.... I don't want to sound like a wuss, but I can totally see Murphy trying for an AR/AK/semi-auto rifle ban in the next couple years. He might let us keep our Marlin 60s and Ruger 10/22s.

1 pointWhen I first got into shooting in the mid 2000s, I quickly became interested in long range shooting. At that time, the standard recommendation for most shooters was to pick up a Remington 700 Police or a 700 VS and if your budget does not allow that, a Savage model 10FP, both in 308 Winchester. Generally, both of these guns would allow you to shoot around 1 MOA or better with match grade ammunition. In either case however, you were recommended to get into reloading if you wanted to get as consistent results as possible. Once you get above these hunting turned target guns, you were looking at very high end offerings such as the Accuracy International chassis systems or essentially custom guns by well known rifle builders such as GA Precision. Unfortunately, as great as these high end platforms are, they are out of reach for most gun owners. Fast forward a decade and today we find a massive rise in popularity of both long range and extended long range shooting. Most impressive is that you can find plenty of videos of gun owners shooting milk jugs from 1,000 yards to over a mile away with stock guns! So what's changed? I believe there are a number of key drivers which gun owners have to thank for the plethora of options available to them at price points of $2,000 and less. These drivers are both growing demand AND the availability/supply of firearms. From the demand perspective, I think we can thank two drivers for this, YouTube and gun games such as 3 Gun and the practical shooting inspired PRS, which is if you can imagine, an IDPA or USPSA match however you are moving and shooting with a precision rifle, shooting at targets at out at 1,000 yards or more! Fortunately, with all of this demand, manufacturers decided to pour in resources and we now have numerous products at the very competitive price point of $2,000 or less. Best of all, these guns are generally created to be accurate first, rather than being a firearm designed for hunting remarketed as a precision gun. Today, gun owners have such firearms as the Ruger Precision Rifle, the Thompson Center LRR, the Howa Oryx, Mossberg MVP and Savage 110 which use the latest manufacturing processes to produce factory rifles capable of sub MOA shooting (1" at 100 yards, 2" at 200 yards, etc.) The overriding theme here however is that I don't believe this would not have happened if it was not for the "Trump Slump." During the Obama years, manufacturers were able to sell basic $500 AR-15s for $1,000 or more. It was only after President Trump was elected and the fear of imminent gun control no longer drove sales, did manufacturers truly innovate and create such firearms at these very affordable prices. This is of course not just anecdotal evidence but can be seen in the sales data. For anyone who has been reading my "NICS Data" research on Seeking Alpha knows that long gun sales are at decade lows. At the same time, PRS and extended long range shooting is quickly growing. The main benefactor here being "chassis guns." The other major change enabling the success in long range shooting is the mass market appeal of new cartridges such as 6.5 Creedmoor. Why? In the simplest terms, the newer calibers such as 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 300 PRC, 6mm Creedmoor, and 224 Valkyrie were designed with different SAAMI specs, predominantly around a bullet with a higher BC (ballistic coefficient) in a larger cartridge with more powder. In short, better bullet, bigger cartridge, more powder giving you faster velocity and a bullet that is far more tolerant of wind. Yes, it is time to settle the debate... 6.5 Creedmoor is an all around better cartridge than 308 Winchester and is quickly becoming the go to norm for gun owners entering this category. After more than 10 years we can start admitting, it is likely not going away, especially as with stock factory ammunition, a shooter can effectively increase their range from around 1,000 yards out to 1,400. Bottom line, are these guns somehow going to put custom rifle builders out of business? No... because there is always that crowd of people who will be looking at a gun that can shoot 1/4 MOA and is willing to pay $4,000 or more on the rifle. If you are happy with .5 to 1 MOA with a gun that you can purchase for around $1,000 and don't need to reload for, then this is certainly an exciting time to be a gun owner. If you have not done so yet, do subscribe and follow my Precision Rifle series on YouTube where we take a look at the latest and most popular precision guns at $2,000 or less!

1 pointTrust is its own entity. I could see the trust being forced to remove the trustee but the trust itself should be safe. And PA does not have red flag laws... Yet
-
1 pointThat's a very interesting question, and I doubt there's any case law on it at this time. I'll inquire with my PA attorney. On the face of it a 'trust' could not be found threatening. An individual trustee could. In that case revoking the trustee's participation would legally preclude and exclude him/her from legally possessing the firearms. But would that stop LE from seizing them? Who the hell knows?

1 pointI really don't care what they scream, as they will scream no matter what. Bottom line is they didn't control the senate then, and they don't now.

1 pointDepends on how your trust is written and if you will be restricted from access to the said devices. BTW no beer for you. Not while you're in the yard shooting suppressed.

1 pointArticle I read said she has already completed three weeks of treatment and hasn't spread. She's survived four bouts with cancer now. Regardless of her politics you have to admire that. She's one tough cookie!

1 pointThat's what Zeke's parents said when they caught him with his sausage in the New Jersey sausage. Interesting fact. Pound for pound, steak costs about the same, or less, than pork roll.

1 pointHonestly I hope the test, or procedure, goes well. I’ll never wish a cancer diagnosis or progression on anyone. That said, I hope she sees this as an epiphany and steps down to enjoy whatever time she has left without the stress of the Bench. Whatever happens better happen soon. Would need confirmation before December to avoid the Dems screaming “but..but..but.. Gorsuch”

0 pointsWe could just get rid of an antiquated system that was invented to make up for the inability of Americans to communicate votes super fast like in the 1800s. As technology has changed, so should our voting system.
