I was waiting for that..... Ehhhh I dunno, I really dont have the time. Between Work and NJGF who has time to re-load???

hahaha very true. But don't forget , I get cheap glass!

How is that place? I bought my first .22lr there many years ago. I used to pass it all the time on my way to up-state NY...they are on Rt. 17 right? I haven't been there in years.

same with the 22-250.... decisions decisions! I supposed the right thing to do is tell my wife I found $300. Right? NAHHHHHHHHHH I look at it as a free rifle! I assumed that money was gone loooooong ago. Might as well put it to good use.

Nice!!!! Want to do a group buy on hole-saws???

yeah, it was my jacket...it was actually inside a card for a wedding I went to about 3 years ago. I thought I lost it lol. I ended up mailing a check to the happy couple when I got home! :roll: How about a .223 bolt action??? That sounds really good! I do like that moel 5, but I have quite a few .22s already ( I know one can never have to many .22's). I already have some .223 rifles so adding a new caliber into the mix is not an issue. Tim...your kind of "tinkering" would end up costing me a grand!!! lol That 887 sure is "nasty" looking! Futuristic if you will.

Yeah, I'm definitley going to be looking on the used rack. I'm pretty good on ammo for right now. I need a new toy. Bolt action 22 mag sounds real nice. Hmmmmm

If you found $300 bucks in an old jacket pocket, what long gun would you get? (no PP's left) Shotgun? Rifle? Caliber Make Action?

W T F F F F F ??? lmao, I have no words. Those reviews, I think this is the .... wierdest .... thing I have ever seen.

Cool! Sounds good...keep us posted when you get it.

According to their website they have two long gun safes available. One is 20 CF for $697, the other is 12 CF for $397. While much better than cabinets, these safes appear to have a 20 min fire rating @ 1200 - 1400. Keep in mind that unless its UL tested, many independent testers start the timer when they start the fire. It may take 10 mins for a slow burning fire to reach 1200 - 1400 degrees leaving this safe ok to burn for up to ten mins. National average small home house fire is around 27 mins. Again, these safe's are still better than cabinets which offer NO fire protection, and very little burglary protection. But are they good for the long haul?

:oops: How did you know? I'm a battered husband.

Is that a design flaw? Or lack of "power" from the round? Or was it designed purposely that way ?

Good point, you would be able to carry much more .22 ammo vs. 12 gauge ammo.

Yeah, I have a nice collection going myself of useless holsters, ones that dont fit me, ones that dont fit any of my guns bla bla bla. :roll:

It is a great feeling if you have never done it before. You actually realize you feel safer. Maybe you will have some luck finding a holster in FL or NC?

Glad to hear you are getting it. Myself and quite a few other people on here have it. I got mine before the gun craze took off , about 7 or so years ago. The turnaround time was just a few weeks back then, I know its a different story now. Supposdly FL is extremely backed up with applicants and is hiring more staff to keep up with the backlog. There are also some people on here that have applied already, maybe they can shed some light on how long they have been waiting. Do you travel much? To PA?

If you could only take one of these during a crisis which may leave you stranded in the woods...which one would you choose? The US Survival .22 from Henry Repeating Arms (with scope) Or the J.I.C. from mossberg. A 22 would be good for small game hunting for food, a 12 gauge has the potential to destroy any meat you could harvist from small game. A 12 gauge would be a better choice for protection, but a .22 could serve as a personal protection round also, with good shot placement obviously.

I hear ya about the $10/100 stuff. Here is a good thread to follow if you are looking for .22LR ammo. Dicks sporting goods are pretty much hit or miss...sometimes they have it and sometimes they dont. Last place i got bulk packs was efingers.

Yeah, very true. Makes sense when you put it like that.

Also, I'm suprised the never came out with digital FID's like the MVC did. Sorta like FL CCW cards, rigid plastic like a credit card. Especially in NJ where gun safety is so prevelant, I guess duplicating a NJ drivers licence is more important that duplicating a FID ?

I'd apply for a new one, the 6+++ month wait will mean nothing because you will have your old one in the meantime.

Very true... Actually a wooded area with water access sounds like a place I'd like to live, not just a place to bug-out to!

Thats why Tim and I are planning on digging a series of underground tunnels from NJ to mexico! Got a shovel? Actually you could always travel by boat. No traffic in the open seas. Its true, the traffic would be unimaginable. I would most likely hang tight until it was absolutely necessary for me to leave. There was some heated arguments a while back in Lacey / Waretown about the evacuation procedures in the event of a power plant incident. Something about bridges if I recall correctly. Mauser?
