Anything the government touches turn to sh!t.

Resurrecting this thread to showcase some "MINOR" modifications I made to my HD Mossy. Before After (the eotech is temporary until I get a more appropriate optic)

I'm ready ! two three four feet, What ever it takes.

1. The 8 months wait for FID and the 2-3 months wait for the P2P 2. No conceal carry 3. I can't find the guns I want (Colt 1911's ACP/Sig Sauer's ) 4. Expensive Ammo and Range membership

Yeah, but you WANTED to live in the boonies..... so there's that.... I'm 5 minutes from the beach.

Six hits and the bad guy is still able to return fire?? And to answer Ed's question, it will be here before you know it. These guys will take advantage of the no-toll into the PRNJ to skip over Camden City (where many carry) and go right to Cherry Hill, Maple Shade, and Mt Laurel where only retired LEOs carry. The future is right in front of our eyes.

Follow the money. The big boys in wall street are in on btc not necessarily every shitvcoin out there but btc yes. To what end Idk. We will never know when there all in or all out until after it happens. I dont believe the dollar is going anywhere soon. If there is mass adoption it will be along side the dollar not to replace it. Example el Salvador. They kept their peso and just accept btc also. Usually the crappier the money in that country the more btc gets a foothold in it that area. I'm not here to argue for or against btc its been here 13 years so far and creeping slowly into society norm in some parts of the world. There are lots of people alot smarter than me in. So I for one see a case for it. If you dont that's fine. This is like talking politics or religion. I would never try n convince anyone either way. Well maybe politics but whatever. Yes I have an opinion but I don't want to fight about it. I have too many friends and aquintences here to screw that up. I do welcome intelligent debate wo the butthurt either way. If and when btc ever hits 250k thats when it has serious enough power to displace every currency on earth . That's why countries are trying to get a handle on it now. My 1.5 cents

Yes but without actual regulation do you think every person is declaring their gains? There is certainly more money for our corrupt government to collect.

One of my brother-inlaws was at a higer memember ship level than me. I up my membership when on sale. To be above him. Then he ups his membership level to be above me. It's a vicious cycle. The BS that's going on with the NRA needs to end. But they are the big dog at the hightest level. They may not do the heavy lifting, but when a court case looks like it will be a win they put our money behind it to push it across the finish line. And it pisses the antis off. That alone is worth $25 a month. When people ask me if I own a gun or if I'm an NRA member I just laugh. "A" gun.....that's cute. A yearly dues paying NRA member? No, I'm a I'm a Life Patron Double Diamond level that you only know if presented with the secret hand shake and identiified by the "free" suede jacket. And I'm upping my membership as soon as the next level goes on a "limited time only" sale after I buy my 17th firearm. I love the look their eyes when they either are in complete disgust or start telling me about their latest firearem purchase.........

Man, I hope they really miss this forecast. Me, @silverado427 and @15636215 will probably get buried... Snow is forecasted to be light and fluffy, which will pile up higher, but hopefully easy to shovel. I wonder if I can train the dog to shovel snow by tomorrow night....

I'm sure a logical and sound arguement could be made that even if you "made a profit" that you really weren't making a profit. Example, if a person is a collector and they purchase firerarms (sometimes mutilple iterations of the same firearm) over many, many years (decades perhaps) and then certain societal events occur in which a great deal of people want firearms during a short period of time, the supply of firearms is low and inflation is higher than normal, etc. Then is a person "making a profit" if they purchased a firearm 15 years ago for $400 but sold it for $800 to someone but the going market price was $1,000 or more for a simliar firearm at a retail store? I'm guessing a lot depends on what a similiar firearm would have sold for at that time. Unless he was price gouging or intentionally selling at higly inflated prices to "suspect" individuals then a good lawyer should be able to logically and concisely explain that his client wasn't selling to make a profit. And may have been able to sell at even higher prices if profit making was their true intention. What's a shame, assuming no nefarious activity was occuring, is that you even have to hire a lawyer to defend yourself for selling your own property. A LOT of information was lacking from the article so it's hard to really ascertain what was going on. What type of firearms were being sold? Were they bolt action hunting style rifles? Or were they evil ARs and AKs or even (gasp!!) fully semiautomatic rifles!? How many were sold to individuals outside the Amish community who wouldn't be able to claim a religious exemption due to the Amish beliefs against being photographed for identification (or any other) reason? if the government wants to get you, they are going to get you. Or at least try really, really hard to make your life a living hell. Which brings me to another point in the article which states, "Reuben King said he primarily sold long guns to the Amish for hunting, though he admitted he sold some to non-Amish, too." Somebody missed the opportunity to explain to this gentleman what you are suppossed to do when questioned by any law enforcement officers. See below video for a concise and easy to remember explanation of what this gentleman should have done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6tfEZI54Jg

Seems like a great case to take up. Challenge the restrictions on the 2a on the grounds of 1a protections. Amish religious beliefs surrounding photographs is well established. Another good case to attempt to overthrow this part of GCA under the vagueness doctrine.

The government wants to tax it and regulate because they understand its not going away and they want their cut. I'm not selling, the reward potentially far outweighs the risk for me.

Regulations can be a good thing. Regulations by executive order I am not so sure of it being fair and balanced etc.

the "market" is what deal you make. So if the deal is MSRP, that is the market adjustment. If the "market" cannot absorb the additional markup then its not a market adjustment. Its all BS because then their argument is "well your trade in now is worth 25% more blah blah".

Holy crap, just how big is that horse? My dude goes through less than half of that, but I do supplement the dry food with wet food and dinner scraps. Ya know, it's all about priorities. I would starve before I let him starve. And in most cases, dogs are far better animals than most humans.

Im not dismissing their stupidity. But as i said. They lobby on a federal level. Remember all the hate they got for backing trump !!! Email them your angst for all the bs and waste of our dues. Its a private enterprise. They have an obligation to change. Or go outta business. But they’re the best federal outreach we have right now. State pro gun groups are exactly that. States. Yes the nra sucks now. It needs reform. Or we have nothing federally

It's only weird if people like Underdog try to trade them in for different ones.

Wow, love the topic of this thread. Theoretical Model as a New Parent: I was surprised when the Mrs. thought she was going to decide whether or not Ruger and Smith were being adopted and how hard and how long the adoption process actually was with permits required 9 month 30 day waiting periods, twins and triplets not allowed, background check copay, etc. I was also surprised when the sticker price seemed like it was roughly only about 50% of the total initial cost and then that I hadn't adequately planned for the cost to feed it for the next 18 or so years. Then much to my surprise I realized with the family growing I needed a bigger house. But what surprised me the most, initially, was when the inanimate object sat there securely for days, not a peep, days on end and didn't jump up on its own and start going off as a rebellious teen. Now, I have to wait weeks on end for visitation range rights.

JFC!
