Moving- Ammo?
Trunk, absolutely. You should be treating it like it is cash. Heavy cash.

Who can make ammo safe for display?
Assuming this gift has sentimental value of some sort to you and you want *THOSE* rounds to be made inert then you need to find someone with a bullet puller/reloading press who can pull the bullet, dump the powder, pop out the primer and then press the bullet back in. If you just want to have some linked SAW-looking rounds to display: http://www.springfieldarsenal.net/556mm-Ammo-Belt-Dummy-60-Rounds-LC-Army-556-belt-x-60.htm I agree with the others - live centerfire 5.56 rounds, outside of a barrel/chamber, are relatively safe to have sitting around. Perhaps watching this video would allay some of your/your family's fears: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SlOXowwC4c

The PC Gaming Thread - Who do we have?
If a group forms that intends to actually play some kind of FPS, give me a yell, I'm in. Arma, Day Z, TF2, whatever. I don't do MMORPG's.

Cicadas - did they ever appear in numbers?
Short Hills/Millburn area - At the peak of their emergence the parking lot at work was littered with them and I would hit 3-5 with my windshield on the way home.

Good Reason to Invest in Reinforced Doors
Couple was allegedly having a loud argument. Neighbor called in domestic disturbance to police. Responding officer reported hearing yelling and sobbing, called for backup. Officers requested the couple come outside, they refused, forced entry and tasing followed. The police's argument is this was an "exigent circumstance" and no warrant required. http://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/20130515/multimedia/130519717

Dremeled off bayo lug, best method to rust-proof bare metal?
You're not local unless I'm on my way up to Cherry Ridge, but damn I at least owe you a visit and a 6 pack of your favorite beverage for all the times you've offered to help me with various stuff.

I dremeled off a bayo lug on a new upper I bought - what's the best method to coat the bare metal I exposed so it doesn't rust?

Boy do I need help with using my scope
Just throwing out another option - if you want a 50m zero but only can get to a 25m range you can use this target: http://www.mdtstraining.com/PFC_ZeroTarget.PDF

Goodbye New Jersey!
Good to hear you made it out, hope to follow your lead soon. If I remember correctly, you have to show that you own property and pay property taxes in South Carolina in order to get a CCW permit

H&K MP5 SD .22 LR
I have a GSG5 and as long as you aren't using a magazine with weak springs (*cough*pro-mag*cough*) the bolt is indeed held open after the last round is fired. The magazines/springs that are sold by ATI (american tactical importers) are good to go. I also use promag magazines that are blocked to 15 rounds, but I replaced the pro-mag springs with ATI springs and they work much better. IMO if you're considering a GSG-5 you need to consider two upgrades for it as "mandatory": - Upgrade some the of fasteners and blue loc-tite them to prevent them from coming loose, especially the ones holding the bolt together. Get this kit: http://rrages.com/screws/net.htm (also strongly recommend the push-pin upgrade kit: http://rrages.com/pins/net.htm ) - Upgrade the stock to anything else but what comes with the gun. The plastic stock that comes with it is thin and hollow plastic, wobbles and *will* crack on you at some point. I replaced it with an actual MP5 stock and it was a huge improvement. Rrages.com used to sell them but doesn't have any in stock at the moment; I bought mine off of gunbroker, and I see one is available as of this writing: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=355001269. That will fit the GSG-5 with a bit of grinding, slightly enlarging the pin hole in the receiver, and using the HK push-pin like the one rrages sells. Also, fair warning, cleaning the GSG-5 is a pain - the case splits apart in two halves and offers lots of opportunities to lose small parts. Take-down and re-assembly is a challenge the first few times you do it. (I'm not a shill for rrages, but they are a reliable source for these parts).

H&K MP5 SD .22 LR
Don't have any experience with the H&K, but I'm curious - are you aware of the GSG-5 MP5 clone in .22LR? It locks the bolt back on an empty magazine as well.

Voice Recorders and Dash/Car Cams
I've been running this exact car DVR on my front windshield for about 6 months: http://www.ebay.com/itm/181120661244 ( I didn't buy it from this seller). Records to SD card, records about 20 minutes then starts a new file. Has an internal battery, tt starts itself up and shuts itself down gracefully just based on 12V going hot or off. If something ever happens that you need saved just yank the 12V power plug so that it shuts down and writes the file. Picks up in-car audio ok as long as you don't have the stereo blasting or windows wide open at highway speed. Video quality is ... eh - decent enough to discern what car is doing what, but you're not going to be able to read most license plates from the video. For ~$30 I'm happy with it.

I disagree with that lawyer's opinions. You have no duty to retreat in your own home per actual NJ statute:
