All yard tools should be registered and a permit required for purchase
This is actually rather gruesome. No motive presented yet, but it must have been pretty extreme for this kind of murder. http://www.nj.com/me...ml#incart_river

Whats everyone doin?
Cleaned some guns, replaced the magazine release on my 10/22, mounted a red dot on my Zastava. Also, trying to convince my dog that he does NOT want to go for a walk!

Need a Good Flashlight
Thanks for the tip! I still have one of them, so I'll send it back. Can never have too many flashlights...

My new 92FS Inox, and the damn waiting period for another purchase
Nice looking Inox. Love my M9, Beretta just makes a great gun. And a Kimber inbound? I'm turning green.

Need a Good Flashlight
I've had a couple of Maglites die on me. Love my Surefire G2, but CR123s can be pricey. I'd go with a Streamlight that uses AAs, very good lights.

NJ FID/PP Compliancy Project
Normally Jack Bryden in Ewing is a reasonable guy. He's never busted the 30 day limit for my permits and is very professional. However, I just applied for three P2Ps this week and was told that the NJSP don't like ("give me a hard time" is how he put it) issuing more than two at a time. He also explained that it's not possible to buy three guns within 90 days due to OGAM. Last time I went in (last year) I was applying for just two P2Ps and Jack encouraged me to get three anyway, just in case. WTH? Are the State Police becoming BIGGER asses as people push back?

Ewing burglary haul includes shotgun, handgun
http://www.nj.com/mercer/index.ssf/2012/10/ewing_burglary_haul_includes_s.html I'd like to see their stats on this quote: " Firearms stolen during burglaries have often reappeared in the hands of gunmen shooting on the streets of Trenton, city police have said." I've heard that, and can believe that's what happens in several cases, but what percentage? Even a good safe can't defeat someone determined to be a dirt bag, though.

Shongum USPSA - 10/6
Wasn't happy with my performance, but scored better than I thought I would. Also, tons of fun. Thanks to Ron, Aaron, et al for another great day at Shongum! Glad Nick and I could provide some entertaining pyrotechnics during the rifle stage.

Monster Hunter, Grimnoir, or Dead Six fans out there?
"Legion" hard cover arrived for me on Wednesday from Amazon. This will be the first of his books, besides Dead Six, that I actually READ. I mostly listen to books anymore. I'm a little torn, but agree with you, JSF01. I think the Grimnoir series is more original and the characters are more interesting.

AR On The Cheap
Cheyenne had M&P Sports for $625 for a while. Might be $675 now. My son picked one up. Decent bargain AR.

NRA Sticker -- Probable Cause?
My son has an NRA sticker on his car. He got stopped for speeding and the officer says to him "Any reason I need to check your car for firearms?" Nick handled it very well and said to the officer "No sir. I'm aware of New Jersey's laws and have nothing in the car." He actually got off with a warning for speeding and that's it!

Monster Hunter, Grimnoir, or Dead Six fans out there?
Thought I'd let folks know that conservative novelist (and firearms trainer, former gun shop owner, and accountant) Larry Correia will be in the area for book signings. For those that don't know him, read some of his blog entries: http://larrycorreia.wordpress.com. His books are light, fun escapism. And all the gun action is realistic. Here are his two area signings: September 11, B&N, Willow Grove PA 7pm September 12, Book Trader in Mercerville NJ, 7pm

What is Range 14 Like
I've been going to R-14 for a few years now. They can be a little uptight, but as anyone who's been in the military can attest to, the saying "you can never be too safe" is an understatement and that is the attitude there. As a place to get some fam time with your weapons, to sight in optics, etc., Range 14 is a decent range. Can't draw from a holster, can't rapid fire, no steel at less than 200 yards (the berm). Of course, paper targets are fine. I also bring dog food cans and plastic bottles filled with colored water. Just pick up your trash when you're done.It can get crowded around hunting time. And like NJKen says, don't be there at opening. There's usually a lull about two hours into the day. The regimented cease fires can be a pain. For one hour of time on the range you get maybe 40 minutes on trigger. During the cease fire one RO walks the length of the line ensuring all weapons are cleared, actions open and chamber flags inserted. Then you go change out targets and hope people don't dilly-dally, killing more trigger time.

New battle rifle?
5.56 is a small round, and I've heard a lot about its lack of stopping power. I've never been in combat, never shot anyone with anything bigger than .177 out of my Crosman 760, so I can't say. However, I have carried loads of different calibers and the weight difference between 5.56 NATO and 7.62 NATO is significant. A major concern for our ground pounders is how heavy their rucks are getting. The load is so significant they are evaluating "exo-skeleton" systems to assist soldiers in carrying all their crap. Looking at calibers, it comes down to quantity vs. "stopping power". Last year the GAO reported that 250,000 rounds were fired in Iraq for every enemy killed.

$400 LMT upper from mTNARMORY
Bought my LMT AR already assembled and love it. Monolithic upper, which is different than the one you're looking at, I believe.(?) WAY more accurate than I will ever be. Plus, solid enough to use as a crowbar and still shoot sub-MOA. Monolithic or not, I don't think you can go wrong with LMT products.

Airsoft for practice/training
I've been looking for the same thing. Just started shopping for a gas blowback M9. I've had poor luck with the quality of airsoft guns in the past, though, so I'm taking my time researching. If you get one that takes "green gas" you can use those propane tanks they sell in the camping section of DIck's, etc and save yourself a bundle vs. CO2 cartridges.

It's full! Can't register. That's what I get for moving too slow.
