I agree. Maybe his head will explode when he's yelling something like "you don't need 10 bullets to kill a deer". His speaking style deserves some comment also. Yes in public speaking you raise the inflection in your voice to make a point. Look at great speakers like JFK and Reagan. The only people who yell like Cuomo did in a speech are.. well...people like Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, and that ilk. Just saying.

The 7 rd limit wouldn't apply to the Secret Service, Coast Guard, or any Federal entity with or without an exemption. The Federal government is never subject to state or local jurisdiction whether its gun laws, labor laws, or anything else. Making a 7, 17, or 70 rd magazine limit will have no effect on violent criminals who will find a way to do violence regardless what the law says.

25 or 30 years ago this guy would have been sent to Marlboro or Greystone for evaluation. He wouldn't have been on the street to stab this poor woman.

If you check the TSA website they want you to use locks that only you have the key or combo for. There is a rationale behind this. They want you around if they have to inspect the bag. TSA also doesn't want to be accused of tampering with the bag which would be possible if you used TSA locks. I've never checked long guns but have flown often with checked handguns. When I do I carry the handguns in a hardsided case with two padlocks. I also put this in a Haliburton with a combo lock. The Haliburton isn't needed and in fact could serve as the hard sided case. When you declare the guns you'll be given a tag to sign and put in the case with your guns. You and your guns will be taken to a TSA checkpoint where TSA may: 1. Xray your gun case say everything is okay and you'll be on your way to personal and carryon screening. 2. Xray your bag and want you to open it for further examination. 3. Just decide to do 100% exam of your bag. They may put a "TSA Inspected" sticker on your bag but this is no cause for alarm. This is the same sticker they use on any bag they inspect. I have no idea what the procedures may be in Argentina.

I have no bad experiences using it in semi autos. Like hiker88 says it seems to drag a bit on extraction from revolvers.

The Pelican sounds good but no TSA locks on luggage with guns. Regular padlocks and you have the key or combo. Check the requirement on TSA.gov.

CBP is Customs and Border Protection. This is the result of the merge of Customs and Immigration Inspectors when they formed DHS. They are the ones who enforce the laws regarding your guns leaving the country and coming back into the country so they are the people to talk to. Their main office is in Newark. You may want to try the Argentine Consulate in NY. They can do anything the embassy can do. You need to ensure you follow the laws in the US and Argentina for import and export of your firearms.

These "impeach him" petitions might make people feel good but that's about all they will accomplish. First, you need specific articles of impeachment to charge him with. There may be some. Second, you need him to be impeached by an Assembly that voted for his stupid new gun law. This is unlikely as the Assembly passed this law. If impeached, that only charges him. Third, you need a Senate to find him guilty so he can be removed from office. The Senate voted for this law by about a 2/3 majority. Hardly likely they'll find him guilty. Better to expend energy getting this law in Federal courts as there are clearly 2A issues and some parts of the law in conflict with SCOTUS decisions (as I see it).

This has been discussed elsewhere on this forum at length. In summary: 1. DHS has not taken delivery of 750,000,000 rds of ammo. This is a long term contract to lock in a price for maybe 3-5 years. Other agencies piggy back on a contract to get the best price. 2. I haven't seen any ammo orders for the Weather Service but agencies like SSA, Fish & Wildlife, Forest Service, Health and Human Services, Dept of Agriculture, and Marine Fisheries all have Criminal Investigators that conduct criminal investigations, make arrests, and carry firearms. 3. Every Federal agency I know of uses duty ammunition for all training, practice, and qualification. That means they are using hollowpoints for everything. An agent uses a minimum of at least 1000 rds a year for qual and practice if they carry only one handgun. Add another handgun and some practice and it easily become 3000 rd a year. Keep in mind this ammo is also used to train new hires too. When you take all of this in consideration 750,00,000 over a few years is there to meet needs. No conspiracy.

Easy deal. Pleasure doing business.

I guess you already have contacted the Argentine Embassy and have the paperwork from them. Check TSA website for requirements of your gun case, etc. You also need to check CBP requirements for taking the guns out and bringing them back. At the least you need to register the guns with CBP. THIS IS NOT A REGISTRATION SCHEME. You'll bring your guns to a CBP office they will fill out a form and give it to you. They do not keep a copy. Are you going on a hunt? It may just be easier to use the guides guns.

I use CLP on everything and Mobil 1 grease on Garands. If you're happy with the stuff you use that's fine.

Take a look at the Ruger LC380 which, as I understand it, the bigger LC9 but in 380. I have always been a PP/PPK/PPKS fan but am considering the LC380. Don't give up on carrying the Beretta as a CCW. I carried a Taurus 92 as a plain clothes duty weapon for about 5 years. It will work with the right holster.

I should have mentioned that the few .22 PPs I've handled were very reliable.

Walther used to make the PP and I think the PPK in 22LR. They made it for some time. The PPK/S was created to meet the import criteria of a minimum of 10" length and height required by the GCA68. The PPK/S is the PP frame (longer grip) with the PPK shorter barrel. There was never a difference in physical size of the PP or PPK due to caliber. They're not really reinventing anything just dusting off old tooling. The weight listed in the link puts it at about the weight of an all steel pistol. If you want a PPK/S style pistol in a smaller size look for a TPH. I had one and found it very unreliable in the DA mode and got rid of it.

Easy deal, pleasant conversation. Don't burn up that Lapua ammo needlessly.

The Postal Service does not own your mailbox but sets the conditions you must meet if you want to receive mail. If you don't have a mailbox they will not deliver mail. Ray its not a crime but a regulation that I don't know the penalty for. It may be one of the many regulations there is no penalty for.

Statements like Yeager's and Kaul's appeal to extremists of either side. They are not going to win anyone over to either side. The masses will not be inspired to "go out and kill people" or drag Republicans behind pickup trucks. They lack the respect and character the statements the founding fathers made. Is there a point where armed insurrection is justified? Yes, but we are far from that point. We are a country where the rule of law prevails and efforts need to be directed to the legislative and judicial processes working.

There is a regulation that says "only US Mail" in mailboxes. I've seen the reg. You can put flyers and such if the mailbox has a separate box for newspapers. I have no idea what the penalty is.

Please note the last sentence in your first paragraph. There were no "tactful words" in Yeagers's initial statement. I hope you are not trying to compare Yeager's statement to the "tactful words" used by the founding fathers. No where do they say "kill people". Comparing Yeager's statement to any quote by the founding fathers is like saying JFK and Tupac Shakur were assassinated. To paraphrase Chris Rock, JFK got assassinated. Tupac? That gangster got shot.

I'll bet he isn't as loud mouth in front front of the judge. I'm waiting to hear how he explains to the judge what he really meant by "start to kill people". If the judge orders a psychological evaluation at the least I would expect it to verify Yeager's delusions of grandeur. He's an inexperienced charlatan AFAIC.

This would be the smart way to do this. A prosecutor could argue the lower itself being the serial numbered item is the firearm. The stock and pistol grip are evil features. Is there a prosecutor with so much time on his or her hands. I wouldn't think so but I also wouldn't want to risk finding out.

I agree with Bob. The is no way the number of rounds you've fired caused end shake. If your SP101 has end shake is if it left the factory that way. Call Ruger like Bob says.

These "feel good laws" do make a statement to the Feds but when it comes down to it the Federal law, whatever it is, will prevail. I have to agree with Mr Surfboard to a degree. I don't think it likely but if the Feds reinstituted the 94 AWB, as it was, the only effect it would have on NJ is limiting magazine capacity to 10 rds. What the anti gun crowd in NJ would want to do is only limited by their imagination. One way the focus can be taken off the gun issue is if liberals find a new crisis "to take advantage" of but I also worry what that crisis might be.

I have to agree with the Chief. If a criminal needs to dispose of a firearm they want to get rid of it not walk around with it. Rivers, sewers, and dumpsters are more plentiful than gun buy backs. The criminal shoots someone. Leave it at the scene. The gun is already stolen or obtained illegally so it can only be traced to the criminal if he keeps it.
