Yup. We usually request a week ahead. I wanted to get registration going early to deal with any problems.

Bumpity bump. 30 slots taken.

You should get a piece of email that is just as printable. The form that popped up is liek a cell phone dorpped in the port a potty at a chili festival... it's gone.

Leave it blank if you don't have one for whatever reason.

We are going to pre registration starting with this match. the form is linked on th front page at http://www.cjuspsa.org/ so go fill it in. Spread the word please, we do not have a comprehensive contact list for the usual crowd yet. With the larger turnout as it gets warmer, there is not enough time to conduct registration, squadding, and enter people in the devices.

Was that a dealer or manufacturer promotion?

Some are honest, some are not. I've never mislead anyone about the number of rounds through a gun I have sold. Also, some guns just lend themselves to a low round count. Snubbie revolvers, heavy magnums, etc. Like my 444p which is about 6.5lbs loaded and has some seriously stout recoil. A serious day at the range with it is a box of 20 rounds. I bought 250 rounds of ammo when I got the gun, I have 50 rounds left, and that's at least 6 years of shooting. So out to the range and fire between 10 and 30 rounds a couple times a year.

The ACLU can try to take that position. The problem is that in order to disarm people, the government WILL have to violate rights they care about. It's inevitable. Most of the original bill of rights covers things a governemtn should not bother attempting because all it leads to is offing your citizenry in order to make them behave. Governments like that don't last long.

The numbers are dropping because it is taking longer? People are operating on the assumption that they are processing at max capacity and not just screwing everyone over?

I've dealt with them. They have a little longer lag from order to pick, pack and ship, but usually just a few days.

Yours wasn't too bad because you bought within the window of their 10y/100k warranty on the driveline. That was part of an effort to overcome a very poor rep for engine problems. The normally aspirated engines form that time frame were pretty good reliability wise. The electronics... not so much. The wife had a new beetle.. 6 ECUs in 8 years. Audis on the other hand seem to be crafted with the notion that you can't afford an audi unless you can afford one every 3 years.

It's still not done. It has to be ratified by 50 sates (UN members, not talking US here), and depending on who does or doesn't the thing is once again dead as a doornail. Even if it is passed, it doesn't supercede US law, even if ratified by the senate, which I doubt it would be. Nobody is offering bags of cash to sign this, people will for protecting existing businesses.

And it's gone.

I've dealt with some. The whole knife thing varies a lot. A lot of them get here via time spent in countries that disarm them and how much they take to that varies. I haven't met any that do actual swords, but I have seen a variety of knives or "knives" and they dress to the occasion/mood. Some of the ceremonial knives are definitely knives, but more like a BBQ gun. They are a dressy accessory and the function is often secondary to the dressy bit. Some of the ceremonial knives I would classify as vaguely knife shaped jewelry. As religions go, it's not bad. Their core beliefs aren't something socially damaging to the best of my knowledge, they'll let people convert to it, but they don't go out and seek converts and are basically willing to live and let live.

I think deep down the DNC believes stuff like this means they get to keep Colorado, its seats and its electoral votes forever. I'm hoping the people of Colorado prove them wrong. Vote with your feet enough, and you lose federal representation.

Bloomberg is already threatening dems who don't want to back gun control. So given an incumbent moderate dem, you split the dem vote with a Bloomberg shill, who do you think wins? Probably the republican candidate. You have a bunch of pols in their mid seventies and a lame duck president burning lots of democrat capital, there is the distinct possibility that the core democrat power structure could be shaken up from this. Either they will have to eject certain influences, sell the party to them, or say they agree to hold onto party influence at the cost of their current successful strategy. Colorado swapping red to blue was due to DMV strategizing that worked. Bloomberg may have pissed that away.

Reread with care. CBS and Gallup are posting their numbers and question set. At least with Gallup, the questions have been consistent for years. They are NOT finding anything close to 90%. In fact the tend is the longer this goes on, the more people are moving to leave the laws alone or reduce gun control. I haven't seen anything other than statements from grabbers with 90% for anything.

Try a tennis racket bag.

Snake shot maybe?

Selling reloads you provide the components for is illegal without the proper licensing. Someone gives you their components and you reload it, it is not. You let them pull the handle on your gear with your components, also not. I wouldn't accept the liability myself even if it is legal. There are very few people whose reloads I'll shoot.

Carbide are still worth it in some brands. Just have no illusions about them allowing the use of no live or aerosol lubes on rifle casings. You'll rip the case rim off if you do.

You know, even with gaming it, they can't reproduce their 90% claim. Gallup and CBS cannot at least.

I'm not the guys saying they have fixed this problem and have something new. Nano-id is. I'm taking them at their word. Metalstorm is a POS technology, but they take every chance they can to back gun control laws to get an captive market for their POS technology, including funding the smart gun project at NJIT, along with taurus (taurus at least learned that was a stupid move) . They'll never see my money, and anytime someone posts one of their videos from a program as something awesome, I remind them why the company and inventor are NOT awesome. The idea may be the swiss government's. The technology may not actually exists. Nano-ID and the parent company thereof have signed on to take their money to advance the concept at the very least. Even if they have jack and are lying for government money, I don't care.

That's not the point. The point is that it is a useless technology that can do NOTHING useful but put gun owners in further peril BECAUSE you can defeat it. Make a law requiring it, defeat it and you are a felon, actual criminals will defeat it anyway. No place is safer, but as a gun owner, you either become a criminal, or you subject yourself to unreasonable search and seizure
