  1. It's listed on the google docs spreadsheet -- check the original post link.
  2. You should have agreed with him and told him that you're contracted by the state of NJ to design a smart gun technology that checks your birthdate to make sure you're young enough to shoot that rifle.

    Cigars

    Best deals on cigars are from online vendors. Most run daily and weekly specials where you can score some nice sticks at discount prices. Here are some well established vendors: www.cigar.com www.famous-smoke.com www.cigarsinternational.com Associated sites to those listed above www.cigarmonster.com www.cigarsprintsale.com A good way to try various cigars is with samplers. Since you're already getting a sampler with your order, see which one you like from the bunch and then you can make a better decision on what to order next. Your humidor will come with instructions on how to correctly season it. When you have time, pick up a bottle of distilled water to charge the humidifier and wipe the inside walls of the humidor. There are also lots of vids online that show you how to do it as well.

    Cigars

    That's a good deal from cigar.com -- I bought the same product about a month ago. There's lots of good info shared here by the other members and I would just like to add that you make sure you season your humidor prior to putting your sticks inside. I initially had concerns thinking that the included humidor would not be reliable but I was wrong, as it is able to maintain 70% RH with my drymistat tubes. You should also consider picking up a digital hygrometer (about $20) to monitor the humidity inside your humidor.
  5. I hope this venture of his isn't going to be another cable television show that produces impractical firearms with his name on them.
  6. Updated the list. I need to find a better way to perform the updates as there are too many steps involved to make a simple change. I will most likely host the spreadsheet on google docs. Edit: Google Docs file link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en&hl=en&key=0Ap8BAjyRhnQ5dDlwc3ZEY2hXSzd5SWREVzVuOG5vWlE&output=html
  7. A safe is as secure as its weakest link. Bolting it down into concrete is pointless if the locking mechanism can be bypassed with simple tools. Just keep this in mind when considering which valuables you want to place inside. Review: "Lock fell apart after 3 years. This safe is very solid except for one thing. The lock requires that you enter a code at which point a solenoid contracts allowing the small plastic wheel to be turned to the right which then lets you turn the large handle to open the safe. The problem is that on the back end of a bolt that is molded into the plastic knob there is a nut that holds the whole works together. After a while, in my case 3 years of casual use the nut falls off along with misc parts clattering to the bottom of the inside of the door assembly. The knob will now spin and the door is still locked! Fear not because you have the override key. Unfortunately the override key in my case didn't work. Fortunately though, when I went to turn the knob a second time(it now spun freely around and around since the nut had fallen off) it came off in my hand!! Leaving a hole where it had been. I think inserted my pinky finger and slid over the mechanism that allows the larger mechanism hooked to the large handle to open the door. I then turned the large lever and it opened!!!!!! So not only is the lock prone to falling apart,, any burglur could take a large center punch and a big mallet and bash the plastic knob with it's bolt inward opening a gap allowing you to get at the mechanism and open the door. I reinforced mine with large heavy washers and inside which make breaking into the thing far more difficult. I also recommend using locktite on the nut that falls off,, assuming you can get the whole mess back together which I did after some patience. Aircraft nuts would also work."
  8. Security did the vets a favor by not allowing them into their establishment. According to all the bad reviews, they would have wasted their money at that place. http://www.yelp.com/biz/captains-inn-forked-river
  9. Items left behind in the car by the owner would be taken by the security specialist and sold on ebay / craigslist to help fund this program.
  10. Nice photos. I like how you captured the rich blues of the sky. Photographing fireworks is fun and sometimes you get a surprise. This is one I took in 2007 and didn't notice it looked like the sun & palm trees until I viewed it on my monitor.
  11. It gets better... Henderson Police beating of a man who was in diabetic shock and a golden parachute for the police chief... http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/feb/16/henderson-chiefs-resignation-adds-final-ingredient/#axzz2YD0CvJjd
  12. Awesome gun Joe! Every component of a Supergrade 1911 is a machining marvel. I've seen macro pics (up close & extremely detailed) of a fully stripped Supergrade and was impressed with the quality of each individual part of that pistol.
  13. At least she's still alive. WTF is up with the Starsky & Hutch mentality of jumping on the hood of their car? Why stop there...maybe they should upgrade to black helis and fast rappel onto the parking lot while deploying spike strips at the exits. Schools should have put on lock down too for the safety of the children.
  14. I hope he gets beat down like a helpless woman in jail every single day of his sentence.
  15. Interesting scenario. As far as I know, a transfer service is not a taxable item, just the NICS. The actual purchase of the item (gun) was with another company and any applicable taxes would have been collected by them. The FFL was paid for a transfer service (not a sale) and I don't know the legality of charging taxes for an item that he never actually sold to you although, the item is legally yours after the transfer is completed. Is it illegal? Not sure. Is it immoral? Hell yes.
  16. Dalton Gardens, Idaho (CBS SEATTLE) – An Idaho ammunition manufacturer has developed a new line of pork-laced bullets they hope will fight against Islamic terrorists – and keep them from going to heaven. South Fork Industries of Dalton Gardens, Idaho, took traditional bullets and coated them in pork-infused paint to make them “haram,” or unclean, under Islamic law. The company’s website labels the “Jihawg Ammo” bullets as “Peace Through Pork” and a “peaceful and natural deterrent to radical Islam.” http://seattle.cbslocal.com/2013/06/24/company-sells-pork-laced-bullets-to-fight-islamic-terrorists/
  17. Slightly different than you asked but here you go: Top NJ gun laws have... 1. severely limited people from protecting themselves and/or loved ones with a firearm 2. been written in such a vague way as to allow for various interpretations resulting in the potential arrest of law abiding citizens who believe they're following the law. 3. barely stopped criminals from using firearms while grossly infringing on the rights of its upstanding citizens 4. helped criminals on the streets to rob/steal & murder innocent people since it is just about impossible for its residents to acquire a conceal carry permit for self defense. 5. been written & unscrupulously passed by legislators that have a complete disregard for the state & federal Constitution to which they have sworn an oath to uphold.
  18. Scott Bach's testimony was very well constructed and covered most (if not all) of the bill's flaws. I hope his voice of reason has not fallen upon deaf ears.
  19. Why not get a barrel bushing compensator? http://www.midwayusa.com/product/683924/wilson-combat-multi-comp-compensator-1911-government-blue
