  1. Both LEO's are morons and are too stupid to be in LE. They are a danger to all of us.
  2. So, it's OK inside? The guy (what's his name?) is nice? Do you think he'd stay around to 6:30pm or 7pm to do a transfer?
  3. I drive past Armament Gunsmithing on Rt 22 in Hillside twice a day, every weekday. Once at 6am and once at 7pm. I've read a few positive comments here, but the house/store looks really run down and scary. The west side of their sign has been vandalized for the past 4+ years. The house is dark and sorta dingy, no commercial appearance at all, and if you didn't notice that the sign is one inch on the east side of a fence, you wouldn't be able to even tell which house it is. On the other hand, the FFL's I use (and like very much now) are hours from my house. Tony and Vinny are both great guys, have done me well, are fantastic to work with and charge very, very low fees. If they were closer to my house I'd never use anyone else. But, they're nearly impossible for me to get to, ever, especially on a work day. So, the idea of having a reasonable FFL actually on my commute route is tantalizing. I read his hours were 9am to 5pm or so. Would he be willing to stay until 7pm some night to handle a transfer, or is he really set on the 5pm close? I would never buy a gun in a store ever again if I had an FFL on my way home..... So, would he meet me at 6:30pm or 7pm some night for a transfer? What are his FFL transfer fees for something like a gunbroker deal? Can he buy guns as a dealer and will he sell them to you at a great price? I don't think he's a Davidson's dealer, so can he get good prices? Thanks, Dave
  4. He always has a lot of guns listed on gunbroker: Jim Flynn's GB Auctions
  5. Monmouth County R&PC, in Farmingdale right next to the airport. $100/year. Search forums for more of my info about it. -Dave
  6. YOu always need to check the calendar. Yesterday the entire facility was reserved for Women's Day....
  7. i don't think this is circumventing the rules. the flag shows that the action is open, nothing can happen. that's all we need. i shoot at around 6 different ranges, in a couple of states, and all require chamber flags. NRA competition requires range flags. I can't believe this is a big deal for anyone.
  8. This is why I'm still considering it a non-story. I don't expect the president to do anything on gun control until he's in his second term. Then I would be worried, but a year from the election? It will be interesting.
  9. Yes, but there are ferrous parts inside....
  10. Wow, that's a really great idea. Very, very nice. I am going to stop there on my way home! I wonder if the new aluminum bodied 15 round AR mags being listed elsewhere in the forum will stick...
  11. I just got one. IM him on the rimfirecentral forums to connect!
  12. I would pay $100+ for that easily. Much nicer than many close to that price! I'm in for one!!!
  13. Great news for you, and thanks to him for his service! He's seen a lot before his 21st birthday!
  14. I should stay out of Bucket 3 and the Politics forums. I try, but sometimes I just can't resist. I wish there was a way for me to hide them, so I never saw topics and was tempted to post. My apologies for any fuel I threw on the fire. I'll stick to the actual firearms forums where I can contribute more constructively. I didn't think 100w lightbulbs would really disappear, though. This article has some interesting information about possible new bulbs, and this article has information about bulb hoarding, pretty much confirming how wrong I was. I might buy a few thousand.
  15. Well, your post was factually incorrect, they are not illegal. You can still buy them, you can use them forever, and only a common class of lightbulb will be illegal to make next years. So, your post was completely wrong. I don't think I slandered you in any way. I do recommend to you that you don't write that you are thinking about breaking laws on a public forum. That's not slander, it's common sense based on actual cases and the probability that law enforcement is reading what you write. From that post, I can sense that you are probably not very bright, but that's my opinion, not slander. Read a dictionary.
  16. Man, I hate CFLs. The good thing is that you can still buy 3-way bulbs, appliance bulbs, special bulbs like in all the lights on my ceilings, etc. Hopefully we'll have LED lightbulbs that are affordable, too. I do like the light from LED lightbulbs better than CFLs. -Dave
  17. Incandescent lightbulbs are not illegal (this is a stupid rumor), gas prices don't surprise me anytime we're running 3 simultaneous wars in the Middle East, and I'm not sure that socialized medicine is an indicator for violence in the street. I don't think that declaring that you are going to break a (serious) state law on a public forum is such a great idea. While I don't worry about most of what you are worried about, I do believe that law enforcement reads forums such as this one to detect illegal behavior, and I know for a fact that it's trivial to get your ID from your postings and the traces you leave when posting. There have been several cases of guys going to jail for illegal firearms acts in NJ that were first detected through postings on myspace, etc. I think declaring the intention to commit criminal acts has the chance of causing more unhappiness in your life than internet rumors that lightbulbs are illegal.....
  18. I agree. He has asked a storage question, and instead people are giving him a hard time for not using them in a way he doesn't want to use them. Someone asked once, he said that's just what he wanted, now forget that part and answer his question. I store my pistols in a heavy fabric organizer mounted on the door of my safe. Something like this: Liberty door panel organizer Before I had my safe, I used a simple organizer on the shelf of my locked closet: pistol rack -Dave
  19. You must not have watched the TV show. There was a lot of time spent on weapons. They showed training, teaching everyone in the family to shoot everything, workbenches with stacks and stacks of loaded magazines on peg boards, etc. The one guy said he had 4 AR-15's, one for each person. The showed lookout points, and discussed how he could shoot the various places. The "rich" Utah guy carried a rifle the entire time, and they talked about how his practice at hunting and long range shooting was great. So, it didn't focus on firearms, but there were a lot of them around.
  20. I thought the guy welding might have been a relative. When they were eating their "ramen and mac & cheese lunch" there were three generations at the table, I thought. His wife was the older woman who kissed him. There was a younger woman stirring the pot (I assumed his daughter), and a little girl. Maybe the welder guy was the wife of the middle woman? The bunker has room for 12...
  21. I feel that way about the people with the pool with the Tilapia; that's all they do, prepare for disaster. They've sorta thrown away their life, and I worry about their kids. The richer guy with the buried bunker talked about how it's more like a hobby. He doesn't play golf, watch sports, etc, he works on disaster prep. He seems to have a more balanced life. They go to the bunker on weekends like it was a cabin. So, at least they live most of the time semi-normally. I wonder how that bunker got built. It's deep...did he pay a contractor to do it (who would then know about it), did he build it himself, or did he buy some abandoned structure? Not really clear to me. The bunker guy also mentioned that he was going to try to find a new job that kept him closer to home, after thinking about the expert's opinion. I wondered about that too. Seemed like he was in SF/LN/NY/etc a lot of the time, and having a great bunker in the Utah desert isn't going to help you when you're on a business trip in NYC...
  22. Attribution? "Someone apparently has told someone something" is about as weak a statement as you can make and still make a statement!
  23. The direct driveway should be done soon. Should have been done a few months ago, but all the rain delayed the volunteer labor. Search for other more lengthy threads on the MCRPC. I am a member. MCRPC -Dave
