    I've seen some people de-prime (write term?) their brass prior to

    cleaning/tumbling so the primer pocket is clean. What is the benefit

    of doing this?

     

    I'm a bit of a whiner as it is when it comes to reloading so any extra

    work I will complain. Just wondering why it may be worth the extra work.

    I don't clean primer pockets of handgun brass unless they are particularly cruddy (muddy range pickups)

     

    I clean my 100-200-300yd .223 match brass primer pockets

    I uniform my 600yd brass primer pockets

     

    Slam fires due to high primers in a match are a real biotch!

    Edleman's was the preeminent gun shop in South Jersey during the 80s. There were on 30/Admiral Wilson on the outskirts of Camden. Holy smoke. I very much wish my dad had my sensibilities. They had thousands or square feet of walls lined with $300 guns now selling for $3000 or more.

    The Edelman's store in Pennsauken was on the southern end of the strip of stores just below the Airport Circle on 130 South.

    My mid-70's Smith & Wessons were purchased there and shipped to their Montgomeryville PA store (where I was living right after college)

    Damn - why didn't I buy more S&W 41's for $272? :icon_e_ugeek:

    Anyone else have the XDM45 5.25?

     

    My brand new one is sitting in PK90's safe, waiting for my 30 day wait between purchases to expire in a couple of weeks.

    Looking forward to having a bullseye quality XD45 (I already have a 'few' of the non-M models.)

    I will second what Brian said. You are much better off selling a gun on the forum classifieds. Selling on consignment at a shop doesn't guarantee you it will get sold. Selling it to the shop guarantees you will get a minimum amount for it. I have sold guns here in less than five minutes after posting them up in the classifieds. If a gun is priced fairly, and isn't a specialty or oddball piece, it will go.

    And worst of all, if it's a handgun you put on consignment and then change your mind if it doesn't sell, you will need a Pistol Purchase Permit to retrieve your own property.

    That really sucks :icon_e_confused:

    AFAIK there is no NJ_legal 7.62X39 "handgun" Weight limit precludes that. Bushmaster made their "Carbon-15' that WAS light enough, There are a couple of others that are making polymer AR lowers that you could probably build one up, although again that weight limit can make things tough.

    Thunder and Lightning ARE STILL light enough!

    My homemade 62gr rounds out of a 20" bbl fly at 3000fps

    Out of the 7.5" bbls on the pistols, they don't get to 2200fps

    Lots of flame though!

    Watched it all last season, and started to watch the new shows....On thing that bugs me....WTF is up with the shitty camper? It breaks down all the time....must use up a ton of gas....and its a total P.O.S......Everyone is dead...society has collapsed...go to a RV dealer and pick out any brand new friggin RV that ya want...and just drive it away....it willbe brand new...wont break down constantly and probably be better on gas..plus it would also be more secure.....Just saying...

    I also watched all last season. Caught the season premiere on Sunday, and I'm giving up on the show.

    Time is too short to waste on bad TV. Erased this one and Fox's Terra Nova from my FIOS series manager list.

    Here's what I got from Rainier arms:

     

    Rest assured, the ATF stopped classifying muzzles as either flash hider or compensator.  So as long as it’s pinned/welded, you’re good to go.

     

    ATF doesn't give a crap whether you're Jersey-legal or not!

    With the '94 AWB now expired into oblivion, the Feds have no dog in that fight anymore.

     

    Rule of thumb on flash hiders & muzzle brakes/compensators is to take a look at the hole in the outgoing end.

    If the diameter is approximately the same as the diameter of the bore, it's a jersey-ok brake or compensator.

    If the hole is significantly larger than the bore, it's probably a flash hider and counts as an evil feature.

    Accessible (non-welded attachment) threads are an additional evil feature. :icon_rolleyes:

    ATF Ruling Disarms All Medical Maurijauna Users

    by John Velleco

    Posted 10/11/2011 ET

     

    The Obama administration is at it again.

     

    With the stroke of a pen, the U.S. Justice Department has just subjected hundreds of thousands of Americans to a lifetime gun ban.

     

    In an open letter to all licensed firearms dealers, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) unilaterally decided that any person who is prescribed marijuana for medical purposes is prohibited from possessing a firearm.

     

    That means over 300,000 people in the states that allow medical marijuana suddenly cannot buy or possess a gun. Oh yeah, and for the many who already own firearms, watch out. They are now felons and could be subject to lengthy prison terms of up to ten years.

     

    Gun Owners of America is not going to wade into the marijuana debate, but the fact that such a large group of people are losing their constitutional rights without even seeing the inside of a courtroom leaves a lot of people scratching their heads.

     

    After all, this is the same Justice Department that, in 2009, basically advised federal prosecutors to turn a blind eye to medical marijuana use.

     

    And, in a bit of twisted irony, the ATF itself has helped thousands of guns to get into the hands of known and dangerous drug cartels in Mexico through their operation “Fast and Furious,” which has led GOA to call for anti-gun Attorney General Eric Holder’s resignation.

     

    The Justice Department makes it perfectly clear in the letter what it expects from gun dealers and gun purchasers, even though the Department and ATF obviously consider themselves above the law—both at the federal and state levels. According to the agency:

    "Any person who uses or is addicted to marijuana, regardless of whether his or her State has passed legislation authorizing marijuana use for medical purposes, is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance, and is prohibited by Federal law from possessing firearms or ammunition."

     

    Notice that persons need not be regular users of the prescribed drug; just the mere possession of a prescription card from a doctor is sufficient to trigger the gun ban. Firearms dealers are further instructed by the ATF:

     

    "If you are aware that the potential transferee is in possession of a card authorizing the possession and use of marijuana under State law, then you have 'reasonable cause to believe' that the person is an unlawful user of a controlled substance."

     

    As far as the overbearing, overreaching federal government is concerned, there is no need for a finding in a court of law that the person is a criminal, and there is no need for a finding that a person is a danger to self or others.

     

    In fact, the gun ban is not even limited to when a person is actually using the drug for medical purposes. If you have the prescription card, you can’t own a gun—period.

     

    This is just one example of how the government uses various existing laws to sweep people onto its gun prohibition list. The same thing occurred over the past decade to more than one hundred thousand military veterans who were prohibited from owning guns because of ailments such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)—in this instance, too, without the benefit of due process of law.

     

    The fact that the ATF is acting against a state-sanctioned medical issue is also particularly troubling. The reason Gun Owners of America has opposed ObamaCare so vociferously is over the concern that medical records databases could be abused by the government.

     

    How many other heretofore legally prescribed drugs could be frowned upon by federal agencies and subject masses of people to a lifetime gun ban?

     

    If the ruling in the ATF letter is allowed to stand, we will have allowed the federal bureaucracy to arbitrarily carve out—with no input from the peoples’ representatives in Congress—an entire class of persons for whom civil rights may as well not exist.

     

    And, to make matters worse, this letter looks like more proof that the ATF is doing all it can to draw attention away from its own “gunrunning” scandal and to avoid investigating and punishing official wrongdoing along the U.S.—Mexico border.
