AR-15 is a solid choice for everyone regardless of male/female, big/small, etc. etc. Recoil is easy, .223/5.56 is one of the most commonly manufactured rounds in America. They are accurate. They are easy to maintain.

Obviously AR-15 if the main purpose is home defense. .223/5.56 will be easier to get than most calibers, though it's a bad time to just get into shooting as there are shortages with the high demand. Easy to fire, recoil isn't much.
1 hour ago, Sniper said:But, I wouldn't rule out pistol caliber carbines, maybe in 9mm or .40. One nice thing with them, you can share ammo with any handguns you might have.
This is a good, different way of going about it if you don't want to go the standard .223/5.56 route. 9mm, .40, 5.56, .22lr, don't want to get shot by any of them. And unless an invader has body armor, which doesn't seem likely for the average break in, they'll all do the job.

Powder Valley Inc is good for regular dumps of powder.
Primers are just impossible. The companies that make primers are selling first to ammo manufacturers to keep up with the huge increase in demand so there's nothing leftover for reloaders.
Getting stuff shipped to NJ isn't a problem.

My Ruger American Ranch in 5.56 is a lot of fun. I've managed sub-MOA with American Eagle 62gr FMJBT's at 100 yards. Accurately rings steel at 200 yards. Haven't tested it beyond that.

Internet and TV providers are such scam artists. Artificially capping your speeds unless you pay them more. Now all these channels are doing on-demand services just to leech more money from us. Unless we hotspot from our phones, our only possible ISP is Xfinity in my town.
Every couple years, I just go to the store and tell them, "What can we do to lower my bill? I don't feel like playing the game and threatening to cancel like everyone does." Then they'll just give me a package they are offering new people and I go on my way. After taxes and all the hidden government fees and shit, I think we are at $180/mo for 250 Mbps download speed and cable that includes some premium channels. They also gave us the phone line but we don't use it. This is the highest my Comcast bill has ever been.

I also understand there's a difference between essential and non-essential businesses. And that my job requires no interaction with other people most of the time so it won't contribute to the pandemic the way a restaurant would since it's goal is to have as many people in there as possible.

Sounds kinds dictatorial.
No and they know we can't. But I also know if I get sick, go in and get a bunch of other people get sick, the lab might close. And if the lab is closed, we can't work and make money.

Yea, I've been using CCI 400s for 6.5CM and could switch to 450s but I don't have any brass for large rifle primers.

Work is too busy for me to take off. And my company might be upset with me if I go into a large crowd right now.

Bumping this thread back. Have people had any luck finding dumps of primers? Powders I've been able to get. Bullets and cases I've managed to catch. Primers are just the one component I can't ever seem to come by.

Better be careful what you insinuate. The FBI has been tracking people left and right and already announced they are investigating people planning on going to DC and state capitols to violently protest Biden's inauguration. Even if that's not what you were doing, which I'm sure you'd never suggest such a thing, I doubt the FBI will really care. And God forbid you do go to DC and peacefully protest but get caught up among people who DO do something stupid, they would use it to link you to them.

Its got some bells and wistles, but its super easy to use, and highly reliable.
The DLX model has blue tooth that work with their app so you can get the reading easily at the shooting bench.
It's what I got. It wasn't expensive and it works pretty well.

13 hours ago, Mrs. Peel said:Well, as said, I'm a "flat tax" proponent. I think all of these special programs hurt more than they help on a number of fronts. And it's not only people with no kids either, just those with no "dependent" kids. It's just dividing people into little tribes - some get special handouts based on arbitrary red lines, some don't. The whole thing feels ridiculous to me... especially when the "benefit" is ultimately pretty paltry anyway.
The problem with flat taxes is it hurts those at the bottom too much. When you are living on $40k a year in NJ, 10% hurts WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more than 10% of someone making $250k a year. The person making $40k a year is already barely scraping by, now you'd reduce it to $36k a year which is even worse. Someone making $250k a year being taxed down to $225k a year is still sitting pretty.

I see no issue with this except the fact that it is a combination of 2 other drugs, an antidepressant and an anti-addiction drug. I am worried that next time I apply for PPP they will see this on my record and it would disqualify me. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge in this area? Would NJ be able to use this drug against me to deny me my rights?
The police cannot see what prescriptions you are on. There's no database for them to look up everyone's drug cabinet. The ONLY health check they see is your mental health a.k.a. have you ever been committed. They have no way to determine if you see a therapist. They have no way to determine if you take SSRIs or MAOIs, etc.

So essentially you want to pay for the handgun, but ownership will fall under your son?
And you are trying to skip the owning it yourself first then transferring it to your son to avoid an extra pistol permit and NICS check?

Our neighborhood rarely loses power and we were fortunate not to lose power for more than 16 hours. My wife was looking at going to Home Depot and getting price gouged on a small generator. When we had our house built a few years ago, I had them build a gas outlet for a whole house generator. Starting to think this might be a good year to finally get one. Between that and solar, we should be good.
-
Tornado touched down in Marmora. Drove home during the worst of it. Lots of large branches down. Everyone in the area has no power. Just filled up my gas can for the lawnmower and offered it to my neighbor to keep his generator going if he needs it. Atlantic City Electric has no timetable for return of service.

3 hours ago, Displaced Texan said:It’s been awhile since I’ve applied for pistol permits, but I do believe you need addresses and phone numbers.
Check the forms on the website.
You do, but they'll get emailed their reference forms. My references on my last pistol permits submitted their forms within 15 minutes of me applying for the permits so it definitely gets emailed out fast.

Should have chopped the finger off and cauterized the wound, putting an end the the COVID stuff months ago. Now we are stretching it out and the entire arm is rotting.

I love seeing home-made innovation. Anything that could potentially speed things up is where I'd like to improve.

That's true. I hit up him on speed dial and told him to approve my stuff.

They DO NOT want you to be able to make reliable ammo because they know who the targets will be as things continue to go to shit in the USA.
I've ordered tons of reloading stuff off Amazon and have had no issues.
What Surprised New Gun Owners The Most?
in New Firearms Owners Corner

As far as guns go, not much changed for me after I started owning any. I just EVERY gun owner was as responsible as most are. The reckless ones keep ruining everyone's image when most people just want to be able to go to the range, relax, and have fun. And I already knew we had politicians making laws about things they know nothing about. We've got people with no military experience trying to tell the military how to budget and run things, we have people making policy on science even though they probably barely passed high school science, we have people making laws about construction when they probably haven't even ever made a bird house much less an actual building. Why would gun legislation be any different?
