    Wow - pretty disappointing.  I'm a member there and I enjoy shooting at their range.  It's definitely too small to do anything but plink and have fun with a rifle, but the fact that they bragged about 50bmg and then wont let anyone is false advertising.  I've recommended the range to a few people and told them that very story, that they can accommodate a 50 if they wanted to. 

    I do get the sense they have some growing pains there and are a bit disorganized or disinterested in people for anything beyond their money.

    I sure hope so - the wife of a corrections officer I know tried to post on FB recently that BX25 mags for a Ruger 10/22 are "perks of the job" since hes in LE, which I quickly slammed and then she backtracked and said it was meant to be a joke.....

     

    I know a corrections officer that was jacked up for having 30 round AR mags.  He had a negligent discharge while cleaning one of his weapons and the police responded to call from a neighbor.  They took his AR and his 30 round mags.

    If you need that money in your lifetime, precious metals are probably not a good idea, they can be part of your overall portfolio, but never dump too much into them, they are not the sure thing that "prepper" types want you to believe. 

     

    Metals can sink and stay low for generations, just look at any long term chart on metals.   Your kids or grand kids may appreciate it, if you are OK with that.

    I have to completely disagree!  I've been going about once a week.  Everyone there has always been very friendly and helpful, staff and RO alike, and I also always see a lot of women there.

     

    A couple of Sundays ago my 2 oldest step-daughters were home for the weekend, so I took the 3 of them plus my wife.  It was the girls' first time shooting.  The owner stopped us in the parking lot and asked if he could take their picture and post it on FB.  Cute pic!

     

     

    Well that's good to hear!

    Very good article. I have been a huge advocate of "Don't Talk to the Police" for many years. However, the writer and the law professor in the video ignore a very important point.

     

    The cop shows up, sees you looking sheepish, sees a guy writhing on the floor or dead. How is the officer to have any inkling that the shooting was lawful?

     

    "Did you fire the shot?"

    "I invoke my 5th Amendment rights."

     

    "Did he break in?" 

    "I invoke my 5th Amendment rights."

     

    "Did you know him?"

    "I invoke my 5th Amendment rights."

     

     

    A cop in a bad mood that day could very well assume the situation was fishy and arrest you. At that point you can add $5000 to your legal bill if -- if -- you can get your lawyer up at 1:30 in the morning. Plus you'll need to post bail, which for a homicide will be on the brisk side.

     

    There must be something you can say that's like a get out of jail free card. "I was awakened about 15 minutes ago by the sound of an intruder (someone breaking in , walking around downstairs, opening the cabinets). He attacked me. I shot him with my legal handgun. I henceforth invoke my 5th Amendment rights. Any further communication between us must involve my attorney."

     

    I don't see anything in that statement that could possibly be used against anyone but the perp. And it immediately gets the cops off your back. 

     

    This is the kind of info that all pro-2A organizations should post and distribute. Why don't they?

     

    Any lawyers feel like chiming in?

     

     

     

     

    You have ZERO chance of avoiding a legal situation if you shoot someone in most states in the US.

     

    In NJ - no matter what the circumstance, you will likely be arrested and zealously prosecuted.  I'm a big believer in NEVER EVER giving the police ANYTHING they can use against you.  Speak through your lawyer only.
