10rd Steel AR mags $7.95
Good price, bad shipping! $16.66 to ship one magazine. Kinda ridiculous.

Just a funny moment
GAH! I know, Bob, I need to get up there! Been a crazy summer, haven't even shot for a couple of months. Time to end my hermitage. Semi-empty nester. Nick is still going to TCNJ, but living in an apartment during the school year.

Just a funny moment
So, I'm in the shower and out of the corner of my eye I catch a glimpse of my wife's pink Bic razor and my first thought was "What's a pink charging handle doing in the bathroom?" Well, it made me chuckle. On a related note, I just got a Rainier Arms Raptor Ambi charging handle for my LMT. Works real nice, field testing it next week.

Starbucks supports us
Actually, that was the Starbucks in Newtown, CT. Pragmatic is a good word. They follow local laws on CC and OC.

UTAH CCW?
Took the class 6/9 (w/GAPP), mailed out on 6/11, got the card 8/16. Pretty quick, comparatively!

I've done handgun F2Fs at my house and at ranges. Long guns I've done at parking lots and the seller's house.

want to start competition shooting
Ha ha! See, that's what I get for talking out my a$$.

want to start competition shooting
For starting in USPSA I'd recommend Shongum (1st Saturday of the month). Very relaxed and usually not over crowded (like OB tends to be). Every match has a new shooters orientation beforehand, too. Also, Shongum reduced their round count due to the Great Ammo Crisis of 2013. They're down to about 100 rounds. Like someone said above, you're put into a division based on your gun. A Beretta 96 would likely be Production Minor (or Major?), USP45 would be Production Major. I shoot a 92 in Production Minor and a .45 1911 in Single Stack Major. Honestly, regardless of your division or class, you're really only competing against yourself until you've competed several times at least.

McGuire bird. That aircrew must have had a hard time living that one down.

Beretta M9 holster suggestions?
I use a Front Line for my M9 in USPSA. Really like it. http://www.front-line.co.il/ Sent from my communicator using Tapatalk

USPSA @ Shongum 07/06/13
I'd say it was a little toasty out there, but that would make for some soggy toast. It was HOT! On the plus side, my Para didn't jam and my son did really well. A great day made better by the absence of Texas stars. Thanks to Ron and the R.O.s for all your work!

Pocket Holsters
I have a Remora holster for my pocket pistol. Nice thing about it is it can work for both pockets and IWB. The outer shell sticks (like a remora), staying in place on the draw. It's not a super fast draw, but it works. Hope this helps. http://www.remoraholsters.com

USA Ammo has .45 ACP for $5.00 per round
Shouldn't this post be under "Hot Deals"?

How many rounds fit in a can?
Boxed? That's nearly impossible to answer unless you specify box size. See the picture below as to why - both of these are 50-round boxes of 9mm Herters.

Terrific Historical Photos
What an amazing look into our past, thank you! Especially liked #34 of the Jersey Shore. I didn't see Snooki, though...

MTM Forest Green 50 Caliber Ammo Storage Can - $13 to $18
I know some folks prefer the metal cans, but for some uses these are great boxes. This is the lowest price I've seen them for and if you have Amazon Prime it's free shipping. Now is the time - Amazon starts charging NJ residents tax on July 1! MTM Forest Green 50 Caliber Ammo Storage Can EDIT: The price on these fluctuates wildly. I keep them in my cart "Saved For Later" and can see the price changes whenever I log in. $13.10 is the lowest I've seen. FYI - These are much more solid than the Cabelas plastic ammo cans sold in the store for $8 - $9.

Cross sections of cartridges
I thought this was interesting. Apparently she shot about 900 different samples, so this portfolio is just a tiny piece. Enjoy. http://www.pearlmanphotography.com/#a=0&at=0&mi=2&pt=1π=10000&s=0&p=0

Steyr m40-a1
Range report once you have it! I've held one (Pizza Bob's M9-A1) and it seemed very well built quality-wise and ergonomically. I've been considering adding a polymer to my "arsenal" and the Steyr is a possibility.

Game of Thrones
I've read all the books so far, and just cranked through all three seasons in the past month. The books were great, though I was getting tired of all the new characters and GRRM isn't killing off main characters fast enough to make up for it. I can't see how the tv show can keep up and follow the same path. Season 3 already has some fairly big divergences so I won't be surprised if you see more differences with the books as we go forward. Honestly, I don't care if the show veers off from the books. This is the best acted show on tv in, well, ever. Standouts for me are Tyrion (I'd watch Peter Dinklage in anything), Sansa, Arya, Jaime, Margaery and , of course, Hodor. Daenerys' actress is blah and Jon Snow is a little over the top.
