On Friday my wife lifted up a plastic bin lid that I left just outside the garage and came running into the house and said hurry up and get out here. We had a black bear looking in the sliding glass door at me in the basement on Monday so I thought that may be it, I was wrong, it was a coiled up copperhead. I grabbed the Governor shot it with #6 shot. The 2 1/2" 410 hit hard and killed it instantly. The snake was coiled up looking ready to strike and the shot flipped it about 10 inches into the position in the picture. A neighbor told me he has killed 3 already this year. The worst part is that it ate the very large frog in the pond I have in front of the house. My wife got vey lucky that she wasn't bit.

After 17 years moved to sunny Florida - goodbye forever to: pinned muzzle brakes, pinned stocks, 10 round magazines, NJFIC, once a month handgun purchase and handgun purchase permits, prohibited AW list, prohibited SBR, Mr. Murphy, Mr. Grewal and anybody like them.... I can't believe how I put up with all that cr*p for so long. I am going to miss Cherry Ridge. My empathy to NJ gun owners - keep up the fight. Roger and out.

Congrats. I'm jelous. For many reasons. It's not just gun laws. It's a part of it. Put the amount of money we pay to NJ in taxes truly disgusts me. We visited some relatives outside of a major Southern city. They have a very nice house in a quiet suburban area. I think they pay less than $250 a month in property taxes. They have schools. The roads are all paved. Good public schools, etc. It really churns my stomach the amount of money I am throwing away. To top it off, it's going too a State government which has a "belief system" that is about completly opposite to my own.

For the collector. Winchester Model 70 Super Grade 75th Anniversary Edition. One of 206 produced. Perfect condition. No marks anywhere. Period! Beautiful rifle I just can't justify keeping only to take out of safe to fondle and admire once in a while. Rifle has been fired 30 times. I am afraid to shoot it because I might ding the stock or scratch the metal, so it stays in the safe. Here is a link to the details. My photography doesn't do it justice. https://www.winchesterguns.com/products/rifles/model-70/past/model-70-75th-anniversary-super-grade.html Includes original box, manual and papers. Asking $1750.00. In 2012 original price was $2000.00.

We’re just over two weeks away from the torch lighting ceremony, so it’s time to introduce the US Team least likely to turn their back on the flag or kneel during the national anthem. Our 2020/2021 Olympians are: Men’s Air Rifle: Lucas Kozeniesky, William Shaner Women’s Air Rifle: Mary Tucker, Ali Weisz Men’s Smallbore Rifle: Patrick Sunderman, Nick Mowrer Women’s Smallbore Rifle: Mary Tucker, Sagen Maddalena Men’s Air Pistol: Nick Mowrer, James Hall Women’s Sport Pistol: Alexis Lagan, Sandra Uptagrafft Rapid Fire Pistol: Henry Leverett, Jackson Leverett Men’s Skeet: Vincent Hancock, Phillip Jungman Women’s Skeet: Austen Smith, Amber English Men’s Trap: Derrick Mein, Brian Burrows Women’s Trap: Kayle Browning, Madelynn Bernau US Olympic Shooting Team I’m struck by how long it’s been since I was on the team (and then not in an Olympic year). I don’t know any of these people… Unfortunately, none of our medalists from the 2016 Rio games are back on the roster. The most experienced competitor on the team is Vincent Hancock, in his 4th Olympics, having won the gold twice before. Kim Rhode missed the cut to compete in an unprecedented 7th Olympiad (having medaled in the previous 6 Olympics). She has stated she’ll be back for the 2024 trials, and may continue on to the tryouts for the 2028 games in Los Angeles. Nick Mowrer is notable for being the first US shooter to qualify in two different disciplines (rifle and pistol) in the same Olympics since 1924. Also of note are brothers Henry and Jackson Leverett, both competing in Rapid Fire Pistol. I sure hope they are on good terms with one another. 280 shooters from other nations will join Team USA to compete in 15 events, though all without spectators due to a Covid resurgence in the Tokyo area: 10m Air Pistol - Men 10m Air Pistol - Women 10m Air Pistol - Mixed Team 25m Pistol - Women 25m Rapid Fire Pistol - Men 10m Air Rifle - Women 10m Air Rifle - Men 10m Air Rifle - Mixed Team 50m Rifle 3 Positions - Women 50m Rifle 3 Positions – Men Shotgun Skeet - Women Shotgun Skeet - Men Shotgun Trap - Women Shotgun Trap - Men Shotgun Trap - Mixed Team The mixed team events are new this year. Men and women competed together in all events until 1988, when separate events for men and women were created. Now, the separate events remain, but a mixed-gender team event has been added. Conspicuously absent from the event list is 50m Free Pistol. THAT makes me mad. Free Pistol had not only been a medal event since the inception of the modern Olympics, it had been the FIRST medal event, as way back in 1896, Baron Pierre de Coubertin (father of the modern games) declared Free Pistol to be the most difficult of the Olympic events, and so reserved it that place of honor. I really hate to see it go. That was MY event, dammit! Well, that and Air Pistol, but I was better at Free Pistol. Tokyo Olympics Shooting Preview The shooting events start with Air Rifle and Air Pistol on Saturday July 24, and continue through Monday August 2 when Rapid Fire Pistol and 3 Position Smallbore Rifle wrap up. You won't see much of these in the TV coverage, but you can find them in the online video feeds. I'll also pop in here periodically to post results.

It is sexy AF.

I would read this: NYSRPA v. Corlett: The Supreme Court’s Next Big Gun Case, Explained (thetrace.org) I remain very optimistic on this case as it is the first of it's kind. According to the article, there are a number of potential outcomes. The worst case scenario is that NY, NJ, CA simply ignore the ruling forcing us common folk to file individual lawsuits against the "issuing authority" which would then result in the "issuing authority" losing in court on an individual basis and being forced to issue a CCW permit. Though, based on what happened in Illinois and Washington DC, the states/city threw up their hands in defeat and accepted "shall issue". The best case scenarios is either a broad "originalist" ruling or a ruling to the lower courts to review 2a cases entirely different resulting in "shall issue". I feel good about this one, it's the first real gun case the supremes have taken in a decade, Are "crumbs" the only thing we have to look forward to? I think not! 22 States are "Shall issue" 21 States are "constitutional carry" there are only 7 states left that are "holdouts", they must and will be brought to heel by SCOTUS eventually.

SOLD

Personal loans and lines of credit are unsecured, right? And at lower interest rates than credit cards. Some speculation is that it might be tied to the upcoming eviction moratorium and foreclosure moratorium ending at the end of the month. Did tenants/landlords or homeowners draw off their lines of credit to stay solvent, and now it will be time to "pay the piper", and they're tapped out? Also, how many small business owners have lines, and have drawn them down to stay alive and the businesses are struggling for workers and sales volume? I expect many business owners to just throw in the towel if we go back into any type of lockdowns.

Range 14 will be closed from 7/19/21 - 7/30/21 for maintenance.

You want a brake for your KS7? 100% legal, does not need to be pinned. Most of what the others are referring to are for semi auto rifles.

In NJ, whatever the device is marketed as, is what it is. “Pinky test” is a myth. No muzzle device is illegal in NJ. Flash hiders are perfectly legal. However - Depending on what you install a flash hider on, it may make a weapon an “Assault weapon” making it illegal to own in NJ. Example: • Flash hider on a bolt gun: legal • Flash hider on a mini 14 or SCR: legal • Flash hider on an SBF Other: legal • Flash hider on an AR: illegal. A pump action shotgun is not semi-auto, so it will not fall under the provisions of NJ AWB. You can add any muzzle device you want to it.

55 days until our house goes on the market. 30-45 days beyond that, we are Texas bound. Cant wait for freedom.

I posted pics in my Key chain ad in the NJ list section. I will be at the range this Wednesday

On the basis of the most recent activity by this "conservative" SCOTUS, I believe they will continue to punt on any case of consequence.

"Large, unfriendly dogs in locked room. Room will NOT be shown. Here are photos and dimensions."" Is it against the law to inquire about ones political affiliations before you sell your house to them? I guess it could work both ways... keep the neighborhood safe OR punish your neighbor...
