    I wouldn't let him know that you may be armed at all. That's a prime target for thieves. I would also get a gam cam and paint it to match the best possible place to view your car and entrance if possible. Make sure doors and windows are always locked and definitely file a complaint with the condo board to let them know your concern.

     

    Now, how would you feel about lending me 10,000 dollars? I have a mouth full of teeth I can use as collateral.

    My glock 19 has ameriglo sights installed ( by previous owner). Its shooting about 4 inches left of center. Just to make sure it wasnt me i let a friend shoot it who i consider excellent with a handgun, he is dead nuts with his own glock and was hitting the same place with mine. I want to move the rear sight over but i dont know how far over equates to what. It was about 4 inches left at 15 yards. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks

    Where are you located? I have the glock sight tools, if nearby Bergen you can come by or meet me at bullet hole to adjust.

    I love mine, the only issues I ever had was with a newbie that never handled a firearm of any kind. He had stovepipes and double feeds because of serious limp wristing. I have NEVER experienced ANY issue with my g19, other than those. He almost sheared off his thumb, he knew better than me an wanted to be "comfortable with his grip".

    If you really want to hunt, and extend your hunting season, add the bowhunter's course. You get a full month and a half head start in the season with bear an whitetail, nearly two months for elk, antelope and mule deer out west and the seasons are extended.

     

    Hit YouTube and watch some videos on identifying runs, scrapes, trails, etc... Also look into state land in either upstate ny or in pa.

     

    We are starting to check our food plots now. Scope for some early rubs and set our cameras. Our blinds and treestands go up in about 3 weeks.

     

    You can learn to field dress, quarter and debone and even butcher your harvest from YouTube.

     

    Tags can get costly, you have muzzle, bow and shotgun, small game, bird, bear, etc... Pick one or two for the area that you have scoped out and have set your mind on.

     

    Last thing, when you are scoping out your location(s) look for signs of other hunters. Orange tape, intentionally overturned rocks, trail cams, etc... This will help you make a decision to NOT pick an area that may be crowded.

    My bet is on EMP. I would rather have an old fashion nuclear exchange. One Second After and lots of recent articles have me thinking about this. But there are indeed a whole range of possibilities from natural to political.

     

    Bottom line is safety in numbers: I vote for a NJGF meeting place and setting up a perimeter!! : )

     

    (bring your food stock with you)

    Not a bad idea! Regional meetings based on county would work out well. We could even apply for 501cN exempt status.

    www.galves.com.

     

    Galves is the place most car dealers go to for their real value. Its been around a long time and now private parties can use it too. Of course there is a cost but you can get a short term deal and you might be surprised by what you find.

     

    Good luck.

    ^^^^^^^^what he said!^^^^^^^^

     

    I haven't bought or traded a car without this for years!

    So this is volumes of logic on the ammo shortage. If you check gunbot, ammoseek or any other availability tracking site you will see that there is plenty of product available, just at seriously inflated prices. It is a quick video, have a look.

     

    I mean, it makes sense. I'm not talking about not buying in bulk when affordable, we have some preppers and people that plan ahead, but buying now. I understand capitalism, but the flip side of supply and demand is the willing to purchase. Take away the demand for one month and prices will regulate.

    Its really sad what passes for a "man" these days. Im only 25, the pussification of america is RAMPANT in my generation.

    Sadly, I agree. Only one of my nephews over the age of 18 has any personal responsibility, the rest just try to act "tough" and fail miserably at being men. It is even present in the way they speak to their mothers and sisters, like they are trash. Fortunately, I have a shred of hope as all of the young men that I have met through the forums, at the range, etc, are good men and make an effort to be self sufficient and responsible gentlemen.

     

    I'm not above paying for skill based service. I know how to use a hammer and fix most things, but there are three reasons that I will call in an expert.

     

    1. Time

    2. Expertise

    3. Supporting a local small business.

     

    There is a benefit to knowing your limitations and supporting your neighbors.

    Cabelas had shelves full of pmc .223 55gn. Plenty of .17, some 9mm, plenty of bulk 308 and some Winchester 5.56. The Winchester was pricy (11.99), the pmc was post election/per newtown (8.99), but you are limited to 5 boxes per caliber.

     

    There seemed to be a bunch of .380 defensive ammo too.

     

    I look on gunbot.net an see that there is stock for what used to be common ammo, but it is at ridiculous prices. I think that once things settle to the new norm (I saw 10 to 15% higher, I think more like 25%), these newcomers on gunbot and the price gougers like ctd will be forced to drop down to these prices. I, fortunately, hoarded before newtown, but would like to send more ammo downrange than I am today. I shoot regularly, but not as much as I did in the past. My accuracy has improved though, because I am looking to enjoy my time, so that's a plus.

    If you look on gunbot.net you can see that any vendor with normal or slightly above normal pricing sells out quickly. All others seem to have product in stock, just not moving. When cabelas and bass pro and the like start to make common ammo more readily available all off the over priced stock will drop. I am guessing by mid to late summer. Lake city is about to start their seasonal run of 556 and 223 24/7 and the big chains are first in line as their orders are already in. As for .22lr, who knows? Cci manufactures 1000000 rounds per day. Where is that going?

    you are still better off piecing together your own AR, unless you are into the exotinc like a LaRue or LWRC. Even Still, You can get the uppers and Piece together your own lower (or buy a complete lower), lpk, stock, etc... and come in less than the full platform. My suggestion is to build your own lower (at least- if you need an ffl it is listed as "other component" instead of rifle or handgun) or buy a completed lower privately. uppers are easy enough to come by and parts are becoming more readily available.
