Nice. I loved going down to Test and Tune days with the Camaro. I am surprised the track had not be shut down yet.

Guy arrested in Jersey City for "Assault" weapon possession
Nope, we do know he said the guns were purchased legally from an FFL..... I guess when he lived in PA. Did he knowingly not look at the gun laws? (as stupid as they are), or just did not look? Who cares. if Brian Aitken got released, so should Keith. My close friend's sister went to school with him, and from all accounts, he was a nice guy, and I am fairly certain he was not going to do anything criminal with them. I just hope Nappen does not screw him.

Guy arrested in Jersey City for "Assault" weapon possession
What were the charges I wonder? I hope he deleted all of his videos so nothing can be used against him. In all likelyhood, unless he can pull off the illegal search and seizure, he is screwed. If he brought his AR with standard capacity mags from PA... well, he broke the law, as stupid as the laws are in NJ. I don't believe he had any criminal intentions, and hopefully Nappen settles this and puts it behind him.

AmmoMan?
That is because he does not want to deal with collecting sales tax or complying with NJ FID requirements for Ammo sales online. I have not personally shopped from him, and I do hear stories that are hit or miss. The one time I did get in touch with him to try and buy 308 Gold Medal Match, he was a rude and abnoxious. He had a price online for shipped. I emailed him to ask him if he can do any better if I can down, picked it up and paid cash. (knowing that he usually does this for people who pick it up). He responded back to me saying no, and giving me a hard time for even asking. From the folks who I know that did go down there, yeah, he was a bit secretive... then again when you deal with ammo in NJ and you likely do cash deals with no tax anyone would be. As far as him "making a living".... it really is a nice "living." lol. Hey, I give him props and don't hold it against him, but let's be honest, he is not just getting by. I was chatting with his friend who did his merchandising for him (tshirts, etc) a few years back and makes you realize how much volume he pushes. AT his volume of ammo, there is plenty of money there. Bottom line... yeah, he is alright. I wouldn't buy from him because of my personal experience, but I don't hold it against anyone who does.

Moderators don't need guns
Was not you. Just the guy who did not feel people that people should be treated with respect without profanity and verbal abuse. Anyone else? Going once? In the past past two days was called a commi, told to get the f out of america, and mods were called cockbags. We can make this a 72 hour purge. There is a metric ton of resources here and ability to make lasting friendships and even a few bucks on the side. Only thing I ask is to treat your fellow members with a little bit of respect and without profanity. Is that too much to ask for?

The ban hammer had been dropped already in the past few days and might be again.... close. Why don't people understand that freedom of speech does not include the moral decency to not mouth off at someone. The rules here are quite simple, communicate with respect. If you wanna call this a metrosexual gun forum, by all means, I call it a decent place for communication and building relationships. I call it a place for people with moral character.

Arrested for a Warning Shot
well, this gets better... take it with a grain of salt, I did not read the police report myself but... Looks like, according to Medford PD report, Thompson went outside unarmed and they saw each other. Thompson went back inside, got his gun, came back outside and followed the perp to the front yard and there pointed the gun at him. The perp began to walk away, and Thompson then fired a shot in the perp's direction. Apparently there was never an intent or effort to break in, rather the perp was evading police and went into Thompson's yard in doing so.

Things improving, 12 permits, plus exemption, 4 weeks.
It was actually a few.... We have a vendor only section here on the forum when this was discussed and then confirmed when I spoke with another. Not going to disclose it here , but if you want to pm me, we can chat. All I know is that the state police does keep track of 30 and does do the match. I do not know how they fix it or what they do about it.

Arrested for a Warning Shot
Aerial Picture of the apartment complex https://maps.google.com/maps?q=2281+Table+Rock+Road,+Medford,+oregon&ll=42.350539,-122.886862&spn=0.001528,0.002642&client=opera&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest&hnear=2281+Table+Rock+Rd,+Medford,+Jackson,+Oregon+97501&gl=us&t=h&z=19 I don't see any "private" backyards in this case, ie, mini townhouses.... so in short... guys hears thud outside. Grabs his AR runs outside into the apartment complex, sees a guy, tells him he is armed. Guy is walking away, he fires a warning shot at him.

Arrested for a Warning Shot
Absolutely agree. That is why I stated, if he suffers in any way, he should get help, or help should be avail for him. If the last article is true... You go into your backyard, you see someone there your first intention is to point your gun at them? I hope the bad guy was armed to warrant that. If it was a regular joe, who was unarmed? heh.

Arrested for a Warning Shot
And the second shoe drops. http://www.opb.org/news/article/arrest-firing-of-ar-15-follow-911-call/ At 11:21 p.m. Sunday, a caller dialed 911 from the Brentwood Village Apartments at 2281 Table Rock Road, Medford, but hung up without speaking to a dispatcher, Medford police said in a news release. Officers were sent to check the area but initially found no evidence of a problem at the apartments. As they were leaving, they heard a gunshot and saw a man running. Police chased the man, who was identified as Jonathan Kinsella, 40, of the 1100 block of Gatepark Drive, Central Point. Kinsella was arrested on warrants charging him with a parole violation, failure to appear on charges of fourth-degree assault and harassment, and contempt of court, police said. Knowing that there were warrants out for his arrest, Kinsella had tried to escape from officers when he saw them arrive at the apartment complex, police said. He ran into the backyard of Cory Thompson's apartment and tried to climb over a fence but fell. The 36-year-old Thompson stepped out to investigate, his AR-15 rifle in his hand, police said. "I don't think we can really fault him for wanting to investigate armed with a gun," Medford police Lt. Mike Budreau said. Thompson pointed the rifle at Kinsella, and told him he was armed, police said. Kinsella started to walk away, and Thompson fired a shot. Police do not believe Thompson intended to hit Kinsella. No one was hit by the bullet.

Arrested for a Warning Shot
Whats an immediate threat? If you are 30 feet from someone, and someone walks through your door with a weapon, immediate threat, shoot to stop. If you are in your doorway, and the guy is 30 feet and walking away with a weapon.... immediate threat? Does it constitute a threat? If the bad entered his apartment, I would be A OK with whatever the guy chose... warning shot or not... his personal choice at that point. From all things indicative... no longer a threat. What we don't know is where he took the warning shot from? His doorway or he left the confines of his apartment. As long as no one got hurt, ie bystanders, whatever the town ordinance is, he should have it thrown at him... what he did was irresponsible. Do the charges carry jail time? I really hope he does not get jail time, but he should seek help.... especially if we take him for his word... "military training kicked in".

Arrested for a Warning Shot
All solid points... this case, the guy really is an idiot. From the three stories, and his own personal statement, he was inside his apartment when someone was trying to break in. He tells the guy he is armed and would fire a warning shot. Bad guy turns around and goes away. No problems up to here. This dummy, then goes outside and fires a warning shot AT the guy, in an apartment complex.... because his combat training kicked in. If you are on 5 acres of property, and you know your property and you are not endangering anyone, sure... I can see how the no discharge laws can be BS.... but this tool fires his AR in an apartment complex, at a guy. He is an irresponsible gun owner. I quite frequently run in the evening, as do many others, in a development. If the guy is no longer a threat, ie turned around and was leaving.... what good does a warning shot do? What are the pluses? While he may pull that stuff in the sandbox, he does not own the property around the apartment complex, he is not on his own property, he had no right to fire a warning shot at someone who was obviously outside his house. At no point in any of the articles or the video does he say bad guy got in. Problem was solved when he told the guy he has a gun and would fire. Then instead of calling cops, he goes after the guy, outside his property. I would be far more ok if he was on his own property defending it... knowing more details and that he was in an apartment complex.... this guy deserves the charges.
