SWMBO doesn't care for them and has been a real pain. Some I announced especially if I was trading in 1 or 2 for a new one. I would trade in safe queens for better more expensive firearms. That way it looked like I was shrinking the collection. Safes full right now any way. TC

Tbtrout answered me in another subject and said yes, I haven't gotten a permit in a few years. I don't know for sure. TC

Just some wear on the paint at the point of contact. TC

Thats right i can go out and buy a rifle any time. No need to apply for a permit. Less paperwork, less things to tell folks what you have at home. Much more effective against zombies Stocks to refinish and scopes to mount. If I see a rifle I like when browsing the gun store, it can go home with me that day, and shoot it that weekend. I don't have to go downtown apply for a permit wait for 3 friends to send in replies, and my job and for the back ground check to come in from the staties, pick it up then go back and look for the gun I saw. I like rifles. TC

The Stanag mounts cost more then I was willing to spend so I got one from B-Square. Its high mounted see through so you can still see the iron sights. It was rock solid I took it off again when I was trying different stocks. It was tough finding a cheek rest that wasn't permanent. I found out i needed a check rest after a day at the range bobbing all over the place unable to keep a sight picture. Also a longer eye relief scope after a cut over my eye. This is how she looked.[attachment=0]129.JPG[/attachment]

SHMBO, thinks I have too many guns already. I never said she had too many shoes Any way I've had to sneak a few new purchases up to the safe. I Pay cash that way she can't see the credit card bill. Sometimes I've been lucky and she's been out when I got home or it waits in the trunk till she goes out. Well if it ever came to, "it's the guns or me" I'd miss her cooking. TC

No doubt, and I had seen reports of the foregrip melting on a hot barrel. I had to dremel the foregrip a bit to get it to fit but it worked well. I then stripped the wood and refinished it with Tung oil. Tried a cammo job on the plastic but I'm not happy with it. I may strip it and try again. I also bought another wood set to play with as well. I've scoped it and had to add a cheek pad to get a good sight picture. Its a keeper. TC

This is the other rifle that vies for my affection my PTR-91. It came with OD plastic stock and forgrip but I prefer the look and feel of wood.The mag is permently blocked to 15 rounds.[attachment=0]123.jpg[/attachment] TC

Some times you just get lucky. Just think you could have played the Lottery instead TC

I've noticed that the Rifle Forum doesn't get as many posts as the handgun forum. I guess there are more handgunners in this state then riflemen. I prefer rifles since its easier to get one with much less involvement with the police. Walk in, pick it out, pay the man and get the back ground check and your on your way. With a good range to shoot on(Fort Dix)Its what I prefer. Also I've started collecting WW2 era rifles which are alot of fun and somewhat less expensive then handguns. The sense of history just adds to the attraction. Who knows where my Enfield might have been or my Garand. TC

It would indeed. TC

Too bad I'm not over loaded with money or permits. TC

I've heard that different towns can charge there own processing fee, for the application. I haven't got a hand gun permit in awhile. Do they require notification of your employer? TC

I blew out my knee during a tug of war between units. My Platoon was due out on the Border OP, I was in the border Cav 11th ACR. I was on crutches as well but the only one on the crew with a European Military DL so I had to drive the Sheridan out to the OP with my crutches strapped to the outside of the turret. Then while out there I had to pull roving guard on crutches. The Army sure can be a heartless b*tch. TC

Damn I thought the 50 Cal was bad. A Mark 19 OUCH! I did get hit in the head with a 105mm tank round while we were loading ammo into my M60. That may account for me voting Democrat once or twice while I was in college. TC

I'm another 1911 fan. It was my issue weapon in the Army and I just fell in love with it. I'm not impressed with 9mm at all. Big slow bullets make big messy holes. I had an H&K USP in 40 it was nice but I had too many calibers so I decided to slim down the collection and focus on 45s. I would like to get a 45ACP wheel gun some day. TC

Hey I grew up in Howell, Howell High grad as a matter of fact. Lived in Candlewood before I enlisted. TC

John since I'm retired National Guard I use the Fort Dix Rod and Gun Club Range. Its a bit of a hike, but I'm hooked on shooting outside. You just can't beat it on a nice sunny day. It has to be one of the least expensive 200 meter ranges to shoot in the state. TC

Here is my Colt HBAR, I bought it during the last AWB, so its ugh, Jersey Legal. No bayonet lug or flash hider. I mean the amount of convience stores robbed at bayonet point is astronomical. But I like the rifle but it is picky as far as ammo goes. TC[attachment=0]126.jpg[/attachment]

Well guns calibers and planes. When the time is 7:47, or 3:57, 1:13. Happens all the time. While still in the guard I would always look at the terrain and plan defensive positions or how I would move a tank platoon through an area. Always on the look out for good tank country. TC

What an investigating officer doesn't see he can't ask about. Besides common sense, if its on display in the back seat someone will assume it should be theirs and break into your car. This is new Jersey after all. TC

Whats our member count to date? TC

I perfer ear plugs to over ear because the muffs get in the way of my cheek weld. In door ranges hand gun only I use muffs I bought at Rays years ago. Since I now need glasses to shoot open sights I just got impact resistant, scratch resistant lenses. I prefer out door shooting since the noise doesn't bounce back to you. TC

Hello from another Middlesex county resident, (Wood bridge). TC

So I guess anyone who loves freedom and distrusts democrats is a right wing radical. Where do I sign up. TC
