Impossible in NJ currently as we cannot have SBRs or SBSs (and I'm sure it wouldn't qualify as an AOW in any shape or form).

It pains me sort of to see that Kevin James is basically filling in for the late Chris Farley... though, aside from that, it looks like it'd be a pretty funny movie.

I was about to say the same thing Welcome!

I agree with the consensus that these ridiculous measures being put in place do nothing to even somewhat solving the issue. Is there a lot of gun related violence in Chicago? Yes. But where in any of these measures is the primary objective being addressed? This seems like he's just butt-hurt over the ruling, and is taking it out on the industry (and, in turn, law abiding citizens).

4chan-fun. (NSFW, at all.)

14 (as well :text-yeahthat: )

You might be thinking of the M249 Mk48 mod 0/1, which is a SAW variant that fires the 7.62 NATO. And it would make sense, to shift in that direction. Last I heard (albeit it was awhile ago now), a lot of guys see the DOD requesting a lot of the next-gen types to be chambered in 7.62. The KAC SR-25/M110/Mk 11 and FNH SCAR Mk 17 (which is in the last bit of field testing) both are chambered in 7.62 NATO-- and I believe was a part of the reqs put forth when the contracts were released. It would make sense that DOD would want to standardize the 7.62 NATO possibly, and focus on a system that utilized said round. As much as I like the 6.8SPC, I don't see it catching on wide-scale with the DOD.

The cause behind CCD is such a conspiracy in itself (not necessarily tinfoil-type, as CCD is a legit issue that genuinely mystifies logic). Whether its cell signal pollution, ill effects of DARPA projects or other past/current DOD experiments (like Operation Crossroads/Argus/Dominic), or something totally random; it could prove to be quite detrimental if the outlook doesn't change. As its been pointed out, honey bees are essential to the well-being of the eco-system (more so than most creatures). I'm not an agriculture specialist, but I do know there are tremendous issues with synthetic plants vs. "organic" (or "normal" in this case). Just a small bit of the puzzle that could lead to a landslide of issues.

Ugh, the 416 rears it's ugly head again. It came close, but there are reasons why it was never picked up for the long run. As for the 30rd capacity, agreed that it's ridiculous considering the role of the SAW.

5,6, and 9 as well. To go along with #9, if some more NFA items were allowed in NJ... but that's really dwarfed by far larger concerns.

If the castle nut is staked, the removal should be pretty easy with the wrench. I don't know if Colt loctites them on (if so, use a bit of heat). Since you're replacing it with a Sully stock, you won't need a castle nut (as the Sully stock does not utilize one).

They sell targets there ($3 per I believe)-- the type with a stand. They also provide post-hole diggers... though, you can of course bring your own stuff. One of the big no-no's is glass, and that's all I can think of. Steel targets are allowed, as are basically anything that isn't glass ( ). As for posting your own targets, again, its up to you. Aside from selling targets and providing a post-hole digger, you have to provide the rest (whether its a staple gun, glue, etc). I've seen people put targets up for the pistol at around 10 yards or so (my buddy did just the other day, and we were positioned right in front of the Range master building-- and the didn't say anything). There is also the dedicated pistol range, but I've never shot there so I can't comment. Shotguns are allowed (I asked the same question). The range master will just constantly remind people to pick up their spent shells after they're done. Prone shooting is allowed and feasible. Some benches have a hard top, some don't. But if you want to shoot from the deck, go for it. You can also bring something to lay on (some people here prefer that). As for it being feasible, definitely. Between benches, there is around 15 yards or so-- point being that you can practice really an assortment of different positions without worry of encroaching someone's space. I don't know about shooting from the hip or holstering. My friend holsters, but without a magazine or round chambered (and I tell him not to do that even). I have seen others holster, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone fire from the draw. You'd have to ask someone else about that. ETA: Bring water! Or some kind of liquid. With how the weather's been, and how its looking to be in the near future-- it gets pretty hot out there. I would even recommend a cover (head wear) and possibly some SPF-30 if you're sensitive to the sun. Reason being there is no shading except for the tiny overhead on the benches (which is really there as a novelty). You can of course back up your vehicle to the line practically-- it helps with keeping your beverages cold, etc.

Yea, I don't think there is such a thing as over cleaning, as long as you're doing it correctly. My DSes during Basic would always say not to "over clean" the bolt of our M16's (to the point of chroming them). Would it have made much of a difference? Probably not (considering a lot of the bolts had been cleaned to the point of being chromed)-- but that's the only occasion I've ever heard "not to do it."

I don't know and couldn't tell you the specifics about "No Discharge Laws." There was a thread on this earlier (more so a listing of towns that did or did not have one). From my experience though, my neighboring town has a no discharge law, but also is home of a gun club/range (both indoors and outdoors). So, *from my experience*, there are apparently ways around it. How or what is beyond my knowledge, sorry :oops:

I saw some of this mess when I was in the area today. Fortunately the worst my area got were mean looking skies, but hardly even a drop of rain. Stay safe.

Ha, nice. Its like 28 Days Later, Dawn of the Dead, and Left 4 Dead rolled into one

There are some folk on this forum (Shane45!) who have or had a Kriss. As for the folding stock, probably be best to go with a fixed stock option; probably be best to link up with other people who currently have one here in NJ to get a better idea. So, welcome!

My unit never allowed any type of photography, unless it was specifically requested by the commander for quarterly briefing slides ( :roll: )... heck, people weren't really allowed to even take pictures of the facility I worked on (all for OPSEC reasons). Fortunately I wasn't a big picture taking person. To stay on topic, my avatar is one of the Pip Boy images from Fallout 3.

Link from M4C: http://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=35490 Really simple explanation, and a credible source. Everyone has their own way of cleaning, and have their own preferences. Some people can take 15 minutes and be satisfied-- and others will take an hour. Just something to keep in mind.

I think BH prefers no photography because LEOs utilize the premise, and its a means of protecting their identity (if they're in the background, etc)... or I could be thinking of something else.

Hello, neighbor. Just south of you.

As I've said, its not about the set of colors necessarily, but how the pattern creates a discomfort in the opposition's brain-- allowing for the appearance of camouflaging. MC with its colors of course will not necessarily blend in with green foliage, but seeing how, even in the woods, it is not washed out in green... instead there are mixes of dirt, bark, etc. So, the MC pattern gives the illusion of blending in with aspects of what the human brain would associate with the "normal." Would MC be more effective in rocky or sandy conditions, yea, maybe-- but only because it tends to work in the same manner as camo is suppose to work (as noted above).

It looks like water-colored MARPAT Here's a gallery of photos (that most of you've probably already seen): http://www.multicampattern.com/gallery/ Its so darn good.

My vote goes for MC, though, I'm in the same boat as Echo-- with a lot of my stuff being in ACsUck. The ACU is brilliant in conventional warfare from my understanding as its whole point is to mess with imaging and other eye-in-the-sky elements... and, honestly, when it gets a bit dirty and faded, it does tend to blend in far better. But it seems like Big Army is getting the point, and they're currently field testing MC in Afghanistan-- and should be the new camo soon enough. The thing about camo is not really its ability to manipulate the opposition's field of view, but to manipulate the user to its surroundings. Its the reason why a lot of people will paint their rifles in a certain manner, or designated marksmen will utilize ghillie suits and canvas on rifles. Not to necessarily blend in to the environment, but to break up artificial shapes and colors (like the color black or block shapes). So, by mixing, say, tan pants with a earth-toned shirt, and than a green vest/rig-- while none are technically "camo," it can offer the illusion of breaking up the shape... so that human's brains doesn't automatically associate what they're looking at as a person or rifle necessarily. My point being that there really isn't a perfect camo, just the philosophy behind it that is important... though, MC is ridiculously effective

What if this guy runs for president in 2012? I can only begin to imagine the effect on gun laws. On which ticket? If he runs as an Independent, he'd steal votes from Obama-- which might not be so bad in the big picture (Given Obama goes for a re-election.)
