I love the logic that piston ar = reliability of an AK. Seriously? Have you ever examined the short stroke piston vs an AK op rod? The raft of short stroke piston guns are NOT the same. Then saying because the ak platform has been fielded everywhere it hasn't failed. Once again REALLY? Is there like a CNN ticker at the bottom of the screen keeping count? The AR has been fielded all over the place as well. Last I checked less folks with the AR wound up in body bags. Not that it proves they are awesome, but is sure does prove it isn't a crippled design. There are also a heck of a lot of well functioning ones that have put up high round counts between failures for it to be inherently flawed. Heck you don't even have to run them wet, it's just the simplest set of instructions to get to a state of working lubrication. My distaste for piston ARs is their proprietary nature with little practical advantage. Both the DI AR and AK platforms function as designed with a fairly broad source of compatible parts for both platforms. Something that is not remotely true of piston ARs. Also, the AK's popularity probably has a heck of a lot to do with it's ease of manufacture over anything else.

Dunno, I have gotten better service from lee than hornady. Hornady has not done well by me over the years. That being said, lee's progressive stuff is just a path I wouldn't go down. Prior to the advent of YouTube, and the hive mind of people deeply determined to prove you can make them work reliably, they were tantamount to flipping a coin and throwing your money away if it came up heads.

Yes but the requirement to meet both stays rules is a federal regulation on the sale of firearms, which to them a b&n gun is not. Nj has no say on commerce conducted in another state. So you must abide by purchasing laws in that state, and transport and possession laws must be followed bringing it here. If you rent a pistol from a range in another state that doesn't submit membership rosters to NJ, have you violated nj law? No, because nj law applies in nj.

I had something on the list at some point. It was $38 from an overpayment for something.

For all the people lashing out at the other adults, they may have just known about Stephanie and let it go because she did. They may be simply telling their side of things because it looked like he would get away with it again despite not being aware of what was going on until he was arrested. Choosing to come forward may have also brought up incidents where the statute of limitations may not have run out. We just don't know the details, and probably don't want to.

I've beaten the snot out of my four sevens light. It's made it the last five years of EDC without issues.

Yeah, but he also took money from said relative. That makes it not a gift. They also discussed it ahead of time and a bunch of other stupid things.

FFS. Ok people pull your heads out of your nether regions. The NRA does lobby here. It doesn't do much good because there aren't a lot of gun owners, and nj is gerrymandered to hell and back. Clubs require membership because it gives them access to NRA grant money, insurance, best practices advice, etc. They ask for money because member dues can't be used for political purposes. That's why the NRA-ila was formed, to lobby, but they have to get there money from other than the mothership. They may not be effective for you at the state level, but they do also lobby at the federal level on your behalf. They are much more effective there. Discounting life membership gets them more members, and those member counts won't fall off the roles.

Doesn't matter. The answer is no. The primary culprits are 1) not hiring someone who knows what they are doing until after ignorance has caused a problem. 2) not listening to said person if they are hired up front because you don't like the answer or the price. 3) doing something that needs the sign off of some regulatory agency and having to redo work that the club representative authorized to start before getting regulatory sign off on the plan for compliance.

It's easy to explain. Shooting is fun, and $200 isn't a lot compared to other ammo. So you see significant benefit and little alternative. Carrying gear to the range is more of a chore, and the case doesn't necessarily change it much, and the case is much more expensive than alternatives.

No.

They only work if you have ripped the case head off.

Nope, you just have to have a plan. Putting down line and phosphate while saving to pay for remediation if the place closes would cut it with federal EPA. The club started a mess by asking the state how to comply because they perceived a threat had been made by the state to set an example. This opened up a huge can of worms because the shot gunners were leaving lead on adjacent property, and despite the club pre dating the pine lands commission, we now have to run everything past them. So now we are in the process of remediation in place. As for paving anything, why are we doing that? We got in deep poop with pine lands for having anything paved and had to rip stuff up and put down tailings.

Book it as gunsmithing? Covers the entry and is definitely not their property.

The knife and attempted cuts to his left wrist don't seem to jibe with that.

Colts been like that since at least the early 90s. Freedom group probably would not buy them. Cerberus wants to sell off freedom group, but can't due to revenues vs. debt load. And that was during the massive boom, and not the current pull back. Colt can't do math, we'll see how long reality lets that slide.

Historically, when a member interested in taking on the board tries to run against them, the board tries to throw them out of the club. Kind of like they tried to toss the disgruntled members of this latest go round. Most of the money I've seen being pissed away by the board comes down to choosing bad ways to get things done that cost more than they need to. An example is the newsletter. We are spending over a buck a pop on that for a few photocopied pages. That's a bit pricey. Even so, I'd rather see it done every other month, which could pay for an annual audit and put another $15k back in the bank.

I can't give you numbers for that, but for any location you can find one with similar population density. You can have higher crime with harsh gun control, or higher crime without, and just the opposite. Violent crime or property crime, it doesn't matter. Strict gun control laws don't really matter, and neither do lax ones. It's not the primary motivator or de motivator for crime.

No no.. you are missing the real point of a stay. Throw out the exiting law, craft a new "shall issue" law that excludes basically everyone and lets them drag out any theoretical approval for I dunno 5-6 years for the paperwork, and start the process of challenging it over. They were told their ban was unconstitutional, so remove the ban and implement something that is essentially a ban, but worded differently. Then cite the drake dismissal.

Yes, it'd be part of the pistol and make it too heavy.

Protip: 7:30 isn't really "earlier". There are very often folks there starting building by 7:30.

I've paid $16.95 for tite group by the pound. With limits for online plus hazmat, $32 is really not off the market price. Best I saw recently that afield out in seconds was 2lb @$24 ea plus hazmat. Unless you bundled some primers, that's $38 a lb.

Sorry, but no. The law was put in place to eliminate sales without background checks under the assumption that there were a lot of them. something in the neighborhood of 40%. IT turns out that there weren't. The law was based on the premise that it would limit gun violence by limiting sales to "bad" people. It did not change much because not only were the numbers of person to person direct transfers not particularly high, they overwhelmingly passed the background checks anyway. The legislation was an expensive no-op, teh fact that it cost less than they estimated is not the issue. Not even remotely.

The 9th's record for tying stuff up is 10 or 12 years, soooo...
