  1. I think the oc people are operating under the delusion that the gun owning public can exert the kind of commercial pressure in general that they do within the realm if businesses that cater to the shooting community. You aren't going to be able to Zumbo Starbucks or chipotle, and their accountants are going to look at it as such. Roughly 45% of households own a gun. Something less than 100% will support these guys even if 100% agree with them, which they don't. Those numbers are not favorable. Add to that the fact that retail customers are much more likely to punish a company for a bad experience than reward a company for a good one, and you can get a pretty good idea of which way this will go for the rkba side of the polarizing event. It is a heinously stupid tactic IMO.
  2. Do you really think it would matter if he was? Jerry seems to have no issues kickin' butt with ____ piece of gear is probably the least valid evidence for judging the usefulness of said item that fills in the blank. Jerry is an inhuman shooting machine who brings sandwiches for the whole squad because it's just common courtesy. Or so I hear.
  3. Hmm. This makes the fifth fun story of bad freedom munitions ammo I have run into. All over pressure. There was also a no name relaid sake by a vendor that doesn't reload ammo, they got lots of stock right after I saw multiple freedom munitions .223 issues. Same exact symptoms. Someone's qc is sucking royally.
  4. Yes the question with their plans is how close to financially screwed are we with the plan. Not everything they do needs doing, and certainly their timing could use work. They have had on the agenda for years to build up a fund in case of a lawsuit. Hit a meeting and ask how that is going. And yes the steel in the pits interferes with using it for anything other than plinking at steel. There are definitely some good guys that persist in trying to keep the BOD from going off the rails, but as a whole, the political shenanigans, and the egos, get way out of hand.
  5. I have, repeatedly. You know how close they have come to bankrupting the club? You know how many times? Any idea why the indoor range is no more usable than before dumping hundreds of thousands of dollars into it? They play at being experts when they aren't and spend the members' money doing it wrong. Hell, I've only been a member for like seven years or something, and I've seen the berms dressed properly once in that time. We bought a stupidly expensive piece of equipment to do it though. It's not even clear their conversion of the club to a not for profit was even legal within the rules of the clubs incorporation.
  6. Yes. The bod are quite a bunch. It's like money entropy in those meetings. You would be boggled to see how much time was spent trying to prove dirt was too expensive to use for berms.
  7. It's nothing fancy. It also now has a tacsol mag release, which isn't in this picture.
  8. I knew a pair of cats that would have eaten it too. Totaled about 52lbs together and not fat. They'd stalk the mailman as a team. You hear if cats bringing mouse and/or bird corpses to their people as treats. These guys brought my aunt a decent sized rattlesnake they had dispatched as a present. Upside is you aren't going to get surprised by it in the back yard. Down side is when the cats ask to come in, it isn't obvious the rattlesnake on the deck is dead right away.
  9. It is EXTREMELY similar to the noveske fire pig in construction. During the federal awb that was deemed a flash suppressor. So no. I'd say it is not something I would remotely consider building an affirmative defense on in nj.
  10. Just make an nfa chart then. Is it nfa? Yes? -> FU! Done.
  11. http://www.nj.com/hudson/index.ssf/2014/05/jersey_city_mayor_wants_to_shape_the_dialogue_on_gun_control.html Hmm. My take? Please, go there. REFUSE to do business with any company that won't comply. Make a LOT of noise about the companies you refuse to do business with. Guess who has a bigger pile of money, the po-po (like you'd even get most departments on board with this), or the consumer marketplace? I wish more companies would be like barrett and say don't let the door hit ya in the ass on the way out. Nothing like idiots stepping in to do it to themselves. Somehow, I don't think grinder bids on not particularly expensive guns are going to get companies to abandon the fastest growing market segments. Just a guess. I mean look at how much fun S&W had trying to accomodate the NJSP with the P99, who WOULDN'T line up for that treatment?
  12. I dislike his voice, and I think he believes YouTube pays him by the pound of electrons or something. I can't really pass judgement on the content, as I made it through one video, spot checked a couple more, and I'm still not convinced anything meaningful was said or done.
  13. Custom on my preferred box of parts. Done by gans guns which closed up shop. (He might still do occasional slides, but he retired from his retirement.)
  14. It's unlikely. Even by the end of 2012, it had risen to $19+ unless you caught a good sale. About the only thing poised to help is that China put the kibosh on holding metals in warehouses and using the 'sale' of such to make an end run around lending rules. Going against are such things as having employer contribution to SS going back up, disincentives for coal generated power which means higher utility prices for most of the nation, and midterm elections followed by primaries and then presidential elections for everyone to get panicky about. Not to mention inflation. But it'd be nice to see the federal 525 bricks generally available at $25 or so.
  15. Actually, that is a broad type, kind of like they use to mess with m-1 carbine look alikes, so who knows. Is the MTS-255, circuit judge, and others like it NJ legal? The intent were items like the street sweeper with a spring loaded non detachable drum, but that's not what it actually says.
  16. That's the administrative code, and they pulled that out of their kiester. They can get away with making up the feature test for rifles because it was the result of defining substantially identical in a court case. Shotguns however already had a feature test in the law as written, which is "(3)A semi-automatic shotgun with either a magazine capacity exceeding six rounds, a pistol grip, or a folding stock." So the flow would go - Is it on the named list? Yes -> FU! NO? Does it have a cylinder? Yes. -> PRobably FU, as that is a type listing. NO? is it semi- auto? No-> GTG Yes? Then does it have a pistol grip? Yes-> FU! NO? Thne does it hold more than 6 rounds in a fixed magazine? Yes -> FU! NO? Then does it have a folding stock? Yes -> FU! WIth the addendum that if it has a detachable magazine, despite the mag limit being 15 rounds, having one over 6 rounds for that shotgun will likely run afoul of "(5)A part or combination of parts designed or intended to convert a firearm into an assault firearm, or any combination of parts from which an assault firearm may be readily assembled if those parts are in the possession or under the control of the same person."
  17. My single stack division gun: My Limited and L-10 gun My production gun is an M&P in .40, don't have any current pics of it.
  18. Part of the problem is that if you have a run on 9mm, you can repurpose other center fire production machines to make it and odds are if you have idle capacity it is center fire. Rimfire capacity is much less flexible without liberal applications of capital investment. As for normalizing, that's going to be up to the manufacturers. We have mid term results to panic over, then primaries, then presidential elections. There will be no respite from the panic.
  19. It's not going to change their mind, but clicking in it deprives them of the opportunity of it supporting their opinion. To the best of my knowledge, it requires the cooperation of the legislature to get a question on the ballot.
  20. I've shot matches with 30 round length bodies, 20 round length, and even stubbier mags. The 30 round bodies are by far easier to manipulate quickly and have less of a screw up factor.
  21. NJ is going to have to hit bottom like RI did. We are following their downward spiral pretty closely. Increasing dependence on narrowing business segments, business hostile, increasing budgets, corruption and graft, said business segments preparing to flee or fold, etc. If it gets bad enough, it'll be reigned in, but there isn't much of a bounce back so far.
  22. New roll marks are within the last year. Mag release should not be an issue.
  23. Other thing to be careful of with copper washed steel is fire hazards. You can get sparks, which can start brush fires if the conditions are right.
  24. Actually SUV wasn't invented to sell them to soccer moms. I firts ran into the term in the mid 80s in reference to the IHC scout/scout 2.
  25. Hmm. never heard of cnacer before this. IT is truly horrific! FFS. Howabout funding actual research rather than funding "awareness" marketing machines, or even just encouraging "viral" stupidity with no discernible point.
