The densest element in the known Universe has been found! Pelosium: A major research institution has just announced the discovery of the densest element yet known to science. The new element has been named, Pelosium. Pelosium has 1 neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312. These particles are held together by dark forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons The symbol of Pelosium is PU. Pelosium's mass actually increases over time, as morons randomly interact with various elements in the atmosphere and become assistant deputy neutrons within the Pelosium molecule, leading to the formation of isodopes. This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as Critical Morass. When catalyzed with money, Pelosium activates CNNadnausium, an element that radiates orders of magnitude with more energy, albeit as incoherent noise, since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons as Pelosium

My boss scheduled my annual performance review for that morning, so I expect to have a few drinks that evening.

With this stamp you could build a sub 26" AOW. This opens the door to other manufacturers as well. For example an MP5K with a brace and VFG would be possible if sold as an AOW if a MFR wanted to invest the time.

You are a Lying Dog Face Pony Soldier! If that gal was a Texan, she'd be pregnant 2 times by now.

I'll take what's behind whiteboard #1!

Die first. Then quit.

It means GFY

CLASSIC!!!!!

Dry fire a double action revolver to develop a smooth trigger press without disturbing the sights. Then move to single action dry fire with a revolver to develop staging at the trigger’s wall. If at the range, start with a modified wall drill: • Draw a dime sized circle on the target. • With the muzzle an inch from the target, conduct 15 dry fires without disturbing the sights. ••If you observe the sights move on the trigger press. Stop. Put the gun down. Count slowly to ten. Then start over with 15 acceptable dry fires. • Move the target to one yard. • Load five rounds and fire all five rounds at the dot you were dry firing on. Shoot for the best possible group. • When one yard is easy, i.e. all five rounds are in the same hole in the target, move it back to two or three, or five, etc... yards. This drill can be shot with any handgun (doesn’t have to be a revolver) and is a great warm up. If I am working on bullseye shooting for accuracy at distance during that range session, I will conduct this drill three times. There is no time standard on this. It is a pure fundamentals drill that works sight alignment, trigger control, and grip.

Welllllll,,, the GodFather must be getting a little scenile as he forgot to invite me to the range and/or the duaghters wedding... So, Ah, bah-fungoo !!

Most people develop a flinch because of noise aversion. Muffs and plugs and make sure they are operating their earpro correctly. Also in general, watch to see if their flinch is really just a flinch or if they are gripping a lot harder in anticipation. Milking the grip can drop your hits a lot. If they feel they need to clamp down on it, work with that and just have them grip the snot out of it from the get go rather than at the last moment.

You ain’t wrong!!

It's so much easier to avoid developing a flinch than it is to eliminate one. That's why it is so beneficial to start with a .22 and work up. But that ship has sailed... Switching back to a .22 for a time may still be beneficial, but it would require enough practice time to really eliminate the flinch. Shooting a mag or two then going back to the Shield won't do it. Dry firing, either with the empty case on the slide as KC17 described, or just with a blank wall as a backdrop can help. Watch the sights closely, and repeat until you can drop the hammer with no visible movement of the sights. That's a useful exercise no matter how proficient one is. The old standby 'ball and dummy' drill will make the flinch more obvious to the shooter, and perhaps help in remediation. Someone else loads the magazines, with a random combination of live rounds and snap caps. It might be helpful for the shooter to fire a few rounds of the same ammo from a bigger, heavier gun, just to show the ammo need not be feared. Starting with something as small as a Shield will be much more likely to induce a flinch than would a heavier gun. Finally, if you reload, crank out some very light 9 mm loads and have the shooter stick with those for awhile.

One exercise I was shown... Place an empty shell case on the top of the slide, just behind the front sight. Dry fire until you can do so without the case falling off.

Just to clarify the transport answer, the whole 'directly to-from home, range, gun shop with only limited reasonable stops allowed' thing only applies to transporting handguns and/or hollow-point ammunition. If you are transporting long guns or non-hollow point ammo, you aren't so limited.

About twenty years ago, I participated in a summer biathlon at a range in North Jersey. At 50m, you are shooting at a 11cm plate standing and a 5cm plate in the prone. It was a humbling experience!

Everything I've found from reputable sources states that an individual does not give up their 4th Amendment rights for owning an NFA item. NEVER CONSENT TO A SEARCH. A guy on here got a visit from local police and child services after some leftist loser contacted them after he posted a picture of his son holding a .22lr rifle on Facebook. This was before we had the unconstitutional red flag laws. YMMV

Anybody know why Richie did Bobby Lupo.

Apparently you have not been close enough to anyone with dreds (especially white people) to smell them........roadkill smells better than dreadlocks

Thanks!

The laws were the same in 2003 also, but the idiot's in the NJSP FIU at that time were clueless. Time will tell if things have changed.

I like it! Actually, one has to be dead* to have an element named after them, which would only make the story better. *OK, an exception was made for Glenn Seaborg (Sg), but he'd discovered like a whole row of the periodic table.

Not me, just somebody from Reddit that posted this. Figured I would share if anybody else was interested. This does indeed open many opportunities for further exploration of the laws that were once deemed off limits in NJ. Thank goodness for this younger generation that questions tyranny.

Which one were you?

I think we met in NJ - he might have gotten a Snowblower from me when I was doing that. We're a couple hours apart now. I'm in Southern NH just over the border from Mass. Happy to show you around my local 2A haunts.

Can't say I've ever eaten dog food but I have eaten Milk Bones after seeing Arthur Godfrey do it on tv.

You don’t have a daughter.... you know of

Still probably the cheapest around until you shoot more than 36 hours a year.

Dude, that’s my 16 year old daughter.....

I'm sitting on the tail gate.

It was a nice day at the range today , I finally got to zero a couple of optics. The hourly range fee is now $5.

That’s a very interesting mindset trick. I’m not sure what I think of this. When we die , we die. When we fail, we fail. Why not pack to win? You’ve obviously never eaten dog food as a kid. It’s actually not bad

You would eat all your survival rations out of boredom due to lack of discipline. One needs to be disciplined to survive. No matter how hungry you may be dogfood might make you vomit. Creates a extra concern for dehydration.

I did the online renewal and paid online, then just mailed the finger print card in last April, but of course I had some other issues that came up which didn't get me my license until this month. The good news is I did not get charged a late fee and they changed my expiration from Aug. to Feb. 2027.

I may not say it often, but.. YOUR WORK IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED!!!

So what are your Valentines Day Plans...…... We're gonna stay home, scrape corns off each other's feet and drink Thunderbird...…..

its all good.. just busting chops... I was busy sunday and couldnt have made it anyways..

Shit... we just shot clays at Stafford on Sunday. My bad dude. I’ll keep you in the loop next one. Thinking 3/21

Geez months later and this shot is still going.
