  1. not charging him....wtf is that?????????????????????? are you serious????????
  2. what is being done about the perp? I cannot find anything
  3. they better arrest and hit this asshole with the full measure of the law. Better yet, I believe in vigilantism and hope he is subject to this
  4. Look I don't want to call anybody ignorant but there is a reason why Tesla is Reliant upon billions in government subsidies to get this company and Market moving. To say electric is cheaper is monumentally dumb at best. Oil is getting cheaper to procure and new fields are being found almost every month. The technology to run cars while many aspects is matured there are still at Vance's to be made. I mean this whole discussion is an exercise in futility because it's all going to come down to how much money will it take to convert from one type of market economy to another and to be perfectly clear, we simply don't have those resources nor the psychological desire to do so. I would also point out that our current electrical system would never be I would also point out that our current electrical system would never be able to handle and increase in the type of demand that electric vehicles would bring so there is that cost as well. 100 years yes 20 years I don't know whether to laugh or laugh and cry
  5. Flash blindness occurs at 60lumens. This is your most powerful weapon upon initial interaction
  6. it's mine gents, she'll have a new home on Saturday:)
  7. AR is actually piston...cmon guys...
  8. Emp bags for flashlights etc. nothing to worry about. Generator, lights, supplies, 22lr, emp bags. serfs to serve.....lol
  9. Not all do, tjos hgarborvfreight 1k watt ones do not. there is no assurance that circuitry would be effected as well. it is a crap shoot of sorts
  10. Good read here. Was looking for something on different types of emp https://www.primalsurvivor.net/emp-protection-preparation/
  11. there was an Army report that was posted on ar15.com and there was an Army report that was posted on ar15.com and one of the survival board areas on small pull start motors and how they will not be affected by an EMP. Many of the smaller motors do not have energy Regulators on them so the output is just free flow oh, there's a lack of circuitry to be affected plus, one can build a plus, one can build a hit and miss motor by going to Home Depot in about an hour and a half Max.
  12. just look at the 2 from mass and how much resources were devoted to finding them. In a national emergency, it's fend for yourself because police have their own families to worry about. You want to survive, prepare, plan, have a group you can trust that are like minded and with you, pool resources
  13. I hear you, I just think that people fail to realize I hear you, I just think that people fail to realize it took more than 15 years to complete the World Trade Center. To move an entire country into the path of electrical Vehicles is a Monumental task. Gone are the days we can complete a aircraft carrier in under 3 months from start to finish. I for one have no interest in electric vehicle and you can have cars that run on water for crying out loud I mean the technology is there to do things differently but again it's really about jobs and how do you profit from it
  14. not to mention tech to get and refine the oil advances yearly plus engines become more efficient. 20to 50yrs is a pipe dream imho
  15. how do you see them taking off without massive tax and gov't subsidies in a time when budgets are constantly challenged. You think Exxon and the like are investing in this when oil is plentiful, cheap, delivery and use systems are well established? Not to mention the jobs etc. Not only that, but until battery technology gives us a car that can go 65mph for 500 miles, many are not buying
  16. just remember this line, 'all politics are local' it applies to most things so think about this and refocus the logic. A little exercise I'd do with my grad students when they do exercises like this. on point however, electric cars may be more prevalent in wealthy areas like ct, nj, ny and cali but their sales have lagged much of the country despite the massive tax and gov't aid . 50yrs may be too soon....
  17. number 1 has to be, 'if you want to trust your life to it' or 'I wouldn't trust my life with it' this is the one that gets me the most
  18. will check out sunriseantiques ARs are definitely off the lows (really the only solid mkt doing so) Ruger and sw m&ps were around 400 for a good while and now both mid 500s with occasional sale at 500. solidly so and these are the most popular two 'lower end' makes. Not that I think they are lower end Colt oem was selling for 670 and now 100 more. Hell, new 6920s are at 900 after being down to sub 800 mark. FN is up as well. You can see the past deals on gun.deals to see the flow as well. LWRC was selling the DI for sub 1k and now 1300. I could go on but unless you are buying the garbage psa is peddling, you are paying more for an AR today than you were a year ago AKs are definitely up as I've starting dipping the toes in that water to see what the fuss is about..lol Garands DEFINITELY lower and with CMP selling service grades at 750, you gotta have your head examined to pay much more unless looking specific serial range and parts. Even service IHC is sub 1k. Cabelas just had 2 winnies for sub 900 in the library. Revolvers are softening which is nice, even the mighty python is coming off it's highs. Semi autos are cheaper today than 2 yrs ago
  19. after Sandy, I had so many people asking me about firearms and many came to the range to learn. Some I know went your way:)
  20. I have to admit, I'm surprised by some of the comments in here. Sandy was nothing and on day 9 we had reports of looting in Keynesburg and Atlantic Highlands. Keynesburg had signs of 'loot I shoot', I saw with my own eyes helping out our local municipality. We were out of electricity for 12 days and it was localized. Imagine that devastation to the electrical system for 1000miles and you have problems that are exponentially greater than what we saw. Bear in mind, we knew help was coming and the psyche of catastrophe is something to NEVER UNDERESTIMATE buy a pull start generator, convert it to tri fuel and you light yrs ahead of everyone. Those little harbor freight generators are perfect, buy 2 have a large supply of canned food, rice, candles, powdered milk, propane and the like on hand at all times. Never forget, desperate people do desperate things.
