  1. Done..its up almost to 70% now Yes (566) 69% No (253) 30%
  2. Hey guys, Work is going good in PA. currently I still am living in a hotel, mainly because unlss I buy a house its cheaper to rent the hotel room 4 nights a week and stay in jersey the days I'm off. I was planning on moving out there but rent is redicilious. Anyways. Here is my quandry. We sold our house and moved into an apartment, and i didn't swap my adress because i was planning on moving outthere, but today i decided that this won't happen till the spring or later. By the spring we will be back into our Sandy house. I canged my address to the Sandy house because this apartent is tempoary (maybe 2 months?) Now that I moved my address how hard is it to get my FID changed, especially to the Sandy house, or do I have to use the apartment. Does anyone know how Little Egg Harbor is pro/anti gun?
  3. I almost don't think this is not that bad of an idea. On'y because i've seen multiple times at ranges where people don't understand how to handle a gun, and pose a danger to not only themselves, but to others as well.
  4. Thanks guys, it is a shame to leave here, but I'd be a fool to pass this up. I'll hang around here no doubt.
  5. So it looks like I got the job I wanted and am making my escape. The job is up near Reading PA, and I have to move there. The Waitress at the bar that I went to when i went up there to interview was nice and wrote down a list of towns near there that are nice and worth looking at to rent. Does anyone here know of the guns laws in PA, Like is it legal to shoot in your back yard? Or does anyone know of any good gun ranges that I could join up there? Any of our forum members live up that way that I could chase down for friendly advice?
  6. My rifles i clean with hoppies 9 and patches. Any time i use corrosive ammo i have come to use muzzle magic No.77 it is the onl;y stuff i have found to remove all of the corrosive resudue.
  7. I've worked on cars for a very long time and have never seen this, can you verify this for me? The master cylinder just provides braking power, and the porprotioning valve is what splits your brake pressure off to the wheels. What everyone should get into the habbit if is hosing our the underside of their cars, i personally take my truck to the car wash and run the power washer under my truck, but if you have a lower car get a lawn sprinkler and drive over it slowlu, or if you can jack up your car, do so and hit it with a hose. the only way to get rid of the bryne is to use water to flush it out, this stiff is worse then rock salt because unlike rock salt the bryne is a liquid and literally winds up anywhere and everywhere.
  8. Here is what I wrote; Dear Governor Christie: As a loyal Christie follower, and advocate I urge you veto both S993 and A2777. I have reached the point, along with many other gun owners where it is easier to move, then it is to keep up with laws. All the Republican legislators voted against these bills. You have stated repeatedly that to merit your signature, legislation must be targeted and effective. Neither of these bills is, and we (gun owners) expect you to veto them. You recently sent me a letter for NJ-GOP 2014 Membership Acceptance. That acceptance is on hold on my desk, pending your decision on these two bills. If you approve S993, any monies I would allocate to send in will go instead towards replacing my currently legal rifle and pistol magazines, and or moving out of the state. I really love the job you’re doing here, and I love this state but, with the passage of these bills I would seriously consider moving, taking my tax dollars, and my CDL with me. Thank you in advance for your support, and your veto of these bills. Sincerely, John
  9. use some muzzle magic no. 77. i have used it on my mausers and sks for a year or so shooting corrosive ammo, its water based black powder cleaner.
  10. IMO, if you need a good German looking Mauser you can try Mitchell Mauser's, they are reworks of the yugo type but hey at least it looks authentic. If you can find a Romanian capture Mauser your good, they rarely ever messed with the waffenamps. I have a 44 that was a Romanian capture, and a 42 that is a vet bring back.
  11. i have a mint condition mk4 no1, that i ahve shot both surplus and the new prvi out of it. the prvi is good stuff, AIM still has the fmj stuff in stock, i give it a thumbs up anything prvi has shot good for me. As for the surplus, my advice is muzzle magic No.77, this stuff has no let me down yet for corrosive stuff, i have used it on all of my comblock guns. Although if you can find a good worn down barrel you can convert it to shoot 7.62x54r with some machine work.
  12. tips is selling 44 mag for 40 dollars a box, when aim was selling it for 25. Personally i haven't bought any ammo but im about to start buying my yearly allotment from the cmp before that too goes out.
  13. i would rather see the stupid gun laws, the ones that doesn't effect us get passed, like the f2f trasfers must go through a nics check, the bills i dread like the ban on ammo sales, or the 10 round magazine bills i would hope die in the senate or cc desk.
  14. already signed it, i had the same issues where it wouldn't let me sign, but then i logged in and it said you have already signed this.
  15. i have talked about doing something like this, but i know that you would not only jump through hoops, but most likely need to bend over for the devil just to get the permits here.
  16. did they state what the cause was for the first two transmission failures were? i think i have an idea, but im curious.
  17. i have had the opposite for the MAL i got from AIM. I can still be in the 6 ring at 100 yards, while my m14 loves DAG and will keyhole with it along with certain lots of PPU.
  18. Unlike the M-14 the M1 Garand doesn't vent excess gas out to prevent it from over pressurizing the OP-rod. This 30-06 has a higher pressure and thus can cause your OP rod to bend and break. I have found that the only safe way to shoot a Garand is with an adjustable plug if your shooting commercial. When i installed my Adjustable plug i wound up shooting the rifle and put almost 100 rounds through it before i was able to have it adjusted correctly. As a result the rifle will not cycle with HXP but will with the commercial stuff you have pictured. If this ammo is truely M1 Garand safe then it will not cycle in my rifle with the adjustable plug.
  19. So i was on the CMP forums and found that PPU is now making M1 Garand Specific Ammunition. I find this not that ironic since i always believed PPU could produce good 30-06 for less then Hornday or Federal could make it for us. anyways its selling at $329 per 500, which is about 66 cents a round. Here is the link http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=AP3006CAN I know that right now the HXP is cheaper and for the same $329 you can get almost 600 rounds of ammo, but being that HXP is now a finite resource i think that PPU should be in the game for a very long time. Now if they could only bring us some .308.
  20. if not you can try Telco? And Welcome
  21. I feel that unions work in both directions. Personally I hate unions, but I do feel they have their place in this world. And please read the whole thing before you shoot at me. For example, I quit a job working at Shoprite (9.50 hour) because the "union" told me 24 hours a week, and that I had to wait to get a full time slot, I could work extra hours, and this was night shift. That and the union pay scale sucked completely. The pay increase was 50 cents a year, the max was 14.50 I had numerous conversations with the union rep for the store and eventually I told him to (in better words, to take his union and shove it). I then went and got a job at target, and was set to part time over night. Within a month they pushed me to 40 hours a week and I got all the overtime I wanted. Yea I made the same 9.50 an hour, but I was allowed to actually work, and help. I worked the floor, the back room and (by the time I left) I ran the unload I got multiple raises for my dedication, within 6 months I went from 9.50 to 10.50, and then by the time I left there 2 years later I was making almost 14 an hour. NO one that was a team member made that that was there for so short of time. I had vacation and sick time, and at target it was based on your hours not weeks. By the time I left I had almost 400 hours of sick and vacation time accrued. I left target and then went to work for Brinks, full time. It too was not unionized, however for me the pay scale varied between 12.40 and 15.60 an hour. I could also work all the hours I wanted to, I averaged about 70 hours a week. Now the system there was 5 sick days and 7 vacations per year, and each year you got an additional 7, so year 2 would be 14, year 3 would be 21, but the max was 4 weeks in one year. The crappy part was, if you called out for any reason they more or less took it from your sick days, and well the conditions were harsh. I feel that if there was any environment that should have had a union it was brinks. Because hell I have never been forced to quit before then, but then again robberies usually result in you being fired... Now, I hated the union’s involvement in Shoprite I felt that the employees didn’t really care, they slacked off, and that in the end work was never truly finished, and the union would save employees who I felt should have been fired a long time ago. For example my fiancées ex boyfriend, he was saved by the union more then 5 times in the 4 years he worked there. He was a miserable person, was constantly late on averages about once a week, he worked the after noon schedule, and had no other job, he was usually late by more then 15 mins, because he would realize its 3 o’clock and have to get off the gaming computer. He also was short money, was rude to customers, but the union saved him, until he screwed himself. What a peace of driftwood he was, now if they got rid of him, my fiancée would have gotten some of his hours, not like it would have mattered but im sure it would have been better then the 28-30 hours. Conversely, Brinks, I would have preferred a Union. I watched guys who worked there for years get fired for no reason. Actually, when you talked to the employees at Brinks they wanted to Unionize, and have tried, but Brinks broke them twice. Rather wise at Target most didn’t want a Union because they liked the ability to stay and work extra shifts or extra time when they wanted to. Like I said I do feel that there is two sides to the Union thing, and well The only time I would have preferred a Union was at brinks, because they fired people for no reason, rather wise, Target was so afraid of the union they made the job and the benefits so enjoyable that people said there is no advantage. I know its a lot, but I will say again I don’t like them, mainly because I spent time working for that completely turned me off because they have their “old” ways of doing things . Now if you like to excel at your job then non-union is the way to go, but if you like the safety and security then well Union is the way.
