I didn't notice a sign, I asked someone what was being built. My sister was at Costco this week and I asked her to check on the progress and she said they were still working on the building and that it did not look finished.

Very Nice tony, great job!

Welcome from Toms River.

Hey Tony, when you're right, you're right This is what he was tying to eat

Watched Book of Eli last week and The Road this morning. I was amazed how similar the situations were. The book of Eli was the better of the two, the ending caught me by surprise.

No, I do not hunt. I fish and shoot, but I have never hunted. Being a city boy from East Orange, I just never had any exposure to hunting. Plenty of guns though

There was a hunter in my backyard today, but it was not me! Was watching some birds in the backyard today and all of a sudden they scatter. My wife said there was a hawk on the limb. After taking some pictures through the window, I went out and took some more and moved closer and closer and he just stayed out until I got within about 15 feet of him and he took off. My son checked the web and it looks like a Broadwing Hawk.

Even if it wasn't cheaper (but it is), re-loading is a hobby, just like shooting is. It is something you can do when it is too cold or wet to go out shooting. Plus you have the added advantage of being able to tailor your rounds for your particular gun and situation. For example, we load "light" for rounds we are going to use for steel shoots and tactical exercises. Reduces the recoil and gets you back on second shot faster. Plus it isn't beating the crap out of our guns.

Is there really that much difference in color between the plastic frame, the grip insert and the slide? It looks almost like a Tri-Color in the picture. I had an M&P .40 and it all looked black to me, even when I took pictures of it.

Thank you, that explains it very well.

Old School, excuse the question but now I am curious. Are the chambers and OAL substantially different between .223 and 5.56? I don't own either but thought you could shoot either in an AR? Thanks

Very Nice, thanks for sharing the pics!

Yeah, this is bound to get moved as soon as a mod gets home from work

There have been a few people recently who got systems and were tutored by some of the experts on the board. ah141nj, I bet if you post where you live and what kind of machine you have (or want to get) someone will respond to give you a lesson. There is something comforting to have someone with experience go over the procedure in person with something as delicate as reloading. Sure, if you are mechanically inclined and very intuitive, you can pick it up by reading the instructions and trial & error but there is something to be said about doing it with an expert watching over your shoulder.

Good seeing everyone out today. Saw some real nice guns there and had a great time.

Hi from Toms River :greetings-wavegreen:

Had a great time at the range today. Lots of brave forum members out shooting. Got to shoot my .22, 7.62 and 12 gauge. Weather was clear and sunny, but a little cool.

Will do Tim, I notice that when I shoot the Mosin, it really gets dirty real fast. Even with just a few shells, it is really dirty when I clean it but the 10/22 or Storm I can shoot a hundred rounds and it is hardly dirty at all. I guess the modern powder and primers make the difference.

There are always a few XDs at BA on Wednesday nights. If I go, I'll bring mine and you can try them.

YEP! I will be there! Look for the Blue Nitro and the old guy who can't hit anything

All I can say is Holy Crap! I can't believe you didn't go over and beat the crap out of that guy!

Lunker, last weekend I brought two of those lawn sign things and they seemed to work out well. It was my first time there since getting my membership.

One year I drove mt '87Audi 4000 at the events. Talk about a fat pig! I would yank the wheel and sit there waiting for the tires to dig in and turn. I let my son take a run and he tore the outside edge off my brand new front tires . It was all good, I just flipped them on the rims.
