  1. The smallest shot I would use is #2, and I think that is a bit marginal. I have had a lot more success using BB and switch to BBB in really windy conditions
  2. Remington Golden Bullets are the crappiest 22LR ammo I have ever shot. I haven't bought it in years and never will again.
  3. It looks to me that the rifling is irrelevant. The bore diameter of not more than .50" is what defines it as a firearm. The term “firearms” is defined in 27 CFR § 447.11 as “A weapon, and all components and parts therefore, not over .50 caliber which will or is designed to or may be readily converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive, but shall not include BB and pellet guns, and muzzle loading (black powder) firearms (including any firearm with a matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, or similar type of ignition system) or firearms covered by Category 1(a) established to have been manufactured in or before 1898.”
  4. Have you learned to properly use the iron sights that are on the rife (A1 or A2)? For 100-200 yds the irons should be plenty adequate.
  5. I moved from NJ the last week of June. Best thing I have done in a long time. Freedom take a little getting used to, about a day or so. I went to the courthouse to apply for my CCW and the clerk let me know it would be in the mail within a few weeks. The circuit court judge comes around and signs off on them. Shall issue is a beautiful thing.
  6. A lot of southern NJ hunting club memberships come with partial ownership of the land. A full member becomes an owner of a small percentage and falls under the exemptions for transport. The clubs also have a shooting range.
  7. I completely agree on the Federal Flight control. The LE loads hold really tight compared to any other 00 that I have patterned in an open choked HD shotgun.
  8. I have a standard loaded M1A and really like it. I also have 2 M1 Garands. The M1A is a really nice shooting and accurate rifle. I say go for it if you want one. I will have some 15rd mags for sale soon due to moving to a free state.
  9. Two weeks from now I will be in my house just north of Front Royal, VA. House has frontage on the Shenandoah River with decent sized property. Property taxes are 1/5 of my NJ house.
  10. I am so thankful that I am leaving this state for good in three weeks... I will never deal with "permission slips" to buy a handgun again or FPID crap.
  11. I don't know anything about Gary Johnson, but a quick Google search shows that he is no gun grabber. Some quotes "I don't believe there should be any restrictions when it comes to firearms. None." "I wanted to make certain that liberties and freedoms are equally available to all, with a limited government which basically ensures that no one is harmful to anyone else." "I'm one of those who believe the bumper sticker: If you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns. The first people who are going to be in line to turn in their guns are law-abiding citizens. Criminals are going to be left with guns. I believe that concealed carry is a way of reducing gun violence."
  12. I have seen a small pebble get caught underneath the lever and not allow the bolt release to work. I am not a fan of additional pieces of gear that can add complexity.
  13. That doesn't make sense to me. A person can rent a bunch of houses or building and do not have to live in them for the locations to be possessed by the renter. I can rent an apartment and store guns in them without ever living in it.
  14. 45 Super looks really good as well. The 625 needs no mods to shoot it.
  15. Thanks, I didn't even think about my 625. I have to look into that.

    460 Rowland

    I am thinking about getting a 460 Rowland kit for my Glock 30. The specs look great. DOes anyone have any first hand experience with this caliber?
  17. This is a true statement. The person who is afraid of stirring the pot will be ignored. Any written formal complaint has to be addresses and nobody wants to deal with those.

    Sks mags?

    I have one as well and cannot recall where I got mine.
  19. I believe that is the determining factor. If no 22 mag ammo, then it should be legal.
  20. Every USGI 1911 I shot in the 1980's was completely worn out. They made a lot of rattle noise when handled. I have bought M1's from the CMP but no way I would spend $1K on a worn out relic.

    .500 S&W

    I have an 8 3/8" 500, every time I think about selling it I take it to the range and end up keeping it. I also reload for the gun and it makes the cost very reasonable.
  22. I have been up there dozens of times in the summer. It can get really wet and chilly at Denali and Seward. Pack a good rain jacket and some warm clothes. The weather changes really quickly.
