  1. 3 simple rules. Use your best judgement. Don't be an asshole. Shut the fuck up.
  2. My buddy's little slice of heaven. iyes he lives n a free state...before someone has a stroke.
  3. Yea, I don't think there is a more egregious example of false advertising since "The Crying Game" To add a little, I'm a fire rating denier, personal choice and opinion. I'm more concerned with someone putting a hydraulic frame spreader in the almost inch gap of a safe door and bending it away. But that's just me, so I'm a Pendleton safe guy. In any event, I would recommend not keeping ammo in your gun safe. Firstly it's some of the most expensive square footage you'll ever own and second, if you take a look at the UL fire rating specs, the "acceptable" temps are well above what cook off primers destroying everything in the safe. Get a separate cabinet for ammo. Just my opinion, I could be wrong. Frequently am.
  4. This maybe it: https://m.bjs.com/product?url=http://www.bjs.com/stack-on-24-gun-fire-safe-with-electronic-lock.product.286694?dimId=2001870 the sale is in June.
  5. Stack-on, man A Snap-on Safe, if they ever made one, would cost $20k not being a douche, just want to be clear.
  6. First they'll come for us with the silence of these useful idiots. Then they'll come for them and there will be no one to speak for them... history is replete with this, yet we fail to understand and are doomed to repeat it. My apologies to Martin Niemöller...
  7. Sorry, just saw this... way north, yes I'm familiar with the forums. Great community of passionate fans. I know no one that has had one and not loved it. Sadly their numbers are dwindling. It's easy to get in trouble and twist it up. Actually the viper truck is worse, but the lightning is a daily. I have a different view of the whole resale thing. It's a car, not an investment. Enjoy it to your comfort level. But never once even think you'll get any of it back. In another 10 years maybe. They hold value well, but like jeeps, extras are free to used buyers. I hate the thought of saving it for the next guy. We don't do it with our ladies, why with cars?
  8. Looks like a tremendous movie... I saw her at yankee stadium with Rex a couple of years ago. Arod was tasked to give her an award and her was terrified of Rex. Dogs are great judges of character.
  9. Abstemious(ly). Looked it up yea I forgot to say shortest, common use and all that, but bravo. Actually if you follow that sort of thing, the "word of the year" is... Absquatulate, which means basically leaving a party without saying good bye, specially to the host, but generally as well. Aren't words fun? To take another stab at the proverbial dead horse... everything you say is reasonable, my gripe is that while we discuss how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, metaphorically of course, we could be trying to convince our cohort that maintaining a coherent voting block is much more productive. The subtle difference between a collapsing vs adjustable stock is ridiculous in the extreme. Imagine if that thought power was focused on doing a quick survey of the political campaigns in the entire state every election cycle and making a list. Then putting that list on here basically saying: If you are a gun owner and you live in so and so district you'd be stupid to consider not voting for this guy or gal: That could be productive. We focus on governor and not where we can actually make a difference. A thousand votes in a district has a huge influence. It won't change things overnight, but the gradual lowering of the flame under the pot with the frog can be accomplished. It's sad that for us, the abused and oppressed, keeping these ridiculous laws as they are would be considered a win. But since these vague and contridictory laws and regs keep us at each other's necks, they win. Again. We can learn from our enemies and beat them at their own game. We just need a cat herder.

  11. Bravo man! I take my staff on their birthdays to the range. I entice an FID application with a bought and paid for membership birthday gift. So far I have 3 converts. Would have been 4 but he's losing his eyesight to T1 diabetes. out of about 10, I'm batting 300. and yes I got chips. (why the holy hell does it sometimes capitalize and put in the period after two spaces and sometimes not?)
  12. You callin' me a dork? Back in the old neighborhood you'd lose a thumb for crackin' wise like that.... after the previous "mozzella" comment I'm triggered. Funny stuff.
  13. Ok. I'll start... my boy Bruno, 4 month puppy and 7 years old beautiful boy...
  14. Sorry Mufasa, I didn't mean to not know my place, but just as a small bit of info; Although I may not have posted as much as you, I have been a member longer, so there! I'm being facetious, of course. I get what you mean and of course I have the ability to ignore these fruitless and redundant threads rehashing how a pinky in a hole can get "the dime" dropped on you at certain locales of moral superiority. Come to think of it, this thread has become what I loathe, sort of. But no matter, I see your point of view, I hope you can see mine... By the way, did you know that the only word in the English language that has all the vowels, in the correct order, is "facetious"? I know what you're thinking, and yes you're right, "facetiously" even includes the 'sometimes y".
  15. I can see how you could think that. But in the very few forums I participate in, this is the only one where newcomers aren't politely told to use the search functions, and read some, before posting for the millionth time the same questions. I agree that we live in a province where our betters change the laws at will and the interpretations of those fluid laws are even more imponderable. Our feudal masters keep laws vague so they can be applied —or not— at their whim. I don't know of any thread asking the same half a dozen basic questions, worded in a thousand different ways, that has ever ended up in a resolution of the question. No matter how it's posed. If I had a nickel for every "what if I..." in response to "no you can't do that in NJ" I'd have a bunch of nickles. Not being a downer here. It's a worthwhile forum, but we do indulge in meaningless circle jerks about crap that if you did a modicum of research on your own from trusted sources like the stinking code itself, you wouldn't be asking for input from the usual experts on here. How long has NJ sucked for 2a? Sure as shit ain't yesterday. There are no loopholes. There isn't finessing these draconian rules. Guns, in general in NJ, are illegal and can land you in the stony lonesome in a second. Even if you do everything right. Including fudds trampling through the woods with their scatterguns dutifully plugged(feel safer?) Does everyone realize that? I thought we did. Oh by the way, is it illegal if I have hollowpoints in my 1911/Glock/XDM when I'm at home, you know... for self defense... geez! If you are concerned about the rules, go pay a lawyer to tell you the same wrong info you've researched on here. At least you'll have a real person's number to call when they're knocking on your door...'cause "I read it on NJGF" ain't a defense.
  16. I agree, yet again, with Ray. There are several examples of "eating our own" in threads where the same questions are constantly asked that start "is it legal..." then the resident experts will pontificate about how taking a pee can land you in jail. I gotta ask, are there any gun owners in New Jersey that are unaware of the peril they live under? Ever bring a "questionable" weapon to a public range? Maybe an adjustable stock, threaded barrel or a muzzle device that you can put your pinky in? And the outrage by the "resident experts" about your transgression? Surprised they aren't calling the SP weapons unit. I know of no other hobby where the adherents are obsessed with minutia of ridiculous laws. Could you imagine if your local speed shop was like us? We'd all be in Priuses, driving 5 miles under the speed limit. Because, you know, to be sure you don't break the law. Is it a wonder those that fight for our rights get frustrated and leave after any interaction with this forum?
  17. Brunch with several moms from 90 to newest mom at 24. Then Mother's Day magically morphed into Jeter Day with the family
  18. The red one is ludicrous. No dihedrals in sight. With cheaters it's in the high 10's. Some sand bags too.
  19. Dude. It is the perfect guy truck. Every guy should have one...or two... red one 620 RWHP blue one 580 RWHP
  20. Did you say Lightning? As in SVT Lightning ?
  21. Yea. I'm a McLaren junky. It's a different kinda car. You don't bump into one every 10 minutes like Fezzas and Lambos. But they have both dihedral doors and a they're permanently in ludicrous mode. So my vocabulary list is fully checked off. Also, did I break anyone's balls? Or were you referring to something else?
  22. Let me expand on that a little, the i8 is a nice car however I've never been a BMW guy. The rear end looks like what I used to draw on the covers of my notebooks when I was 12. But the real reason is because it has an 11 mile range on full electric. They put a lawnmower engine in the back to run the electric motors. It sounds like a lawnmower. Not a good lawnmower. So the obvious question is why did I get it? Well I saw the dihedral doors, I'm a fan, and I got my name on the list. It was one of the first ones. Bit of a let down. The Tesla, the good one, is amazing. I'm no tree hugger. But the ludicrous mode is plain crazy. Yes, it's an expensive option, yes it's a reference to "Space Balls" and yes it puts your eyeballs deep in the back of your cranium. Nothing quite like it.
