Boberg Arms XR9 9mm
Been watching it for a while, very interested. Don't know anything beyond what I've read at their page and on blogs.

Body Armor
No, I don't remember, but I can measure it if you like. It's not the same thickness everywhere; it's thickest over the sternum (armor + carrier + trauma plate) and thin-est at the sides/bottom where the armor doesn't extend so there's only the cloth carrier. More info here: My link

Body Armor
My level IIIA/stab resistant armor rig (front + rear armor, fabric carrier and trauma pad) weighs 5.2 lbs. The armor and trauma pad are easily removable from the fabric carrier and then the carrier can be washed in a washing machine. The armor pieces themselves are covered in a thin tyvek type fabric, so they don't absorb anything.

IR, Night Vision... edumucate me.
FLIR is no good for zombies (ambient temp. body heat...) Seriously, FLIR is awesome, check out the videos on youtube. If it's warm, FLIR sees it.

Preventing the next Brian Aitken. How should the possession laws be changed?
I'd recommend: - without a valid CCW permit - firearms can be transported without limitation to all areas where they are legal (not on school property, not on court property, etc.) Owner must be in the vehicle at all times that they are traveling and they must be unloaded and stored in a locked/fastened container. Ammo must be in a separate container - with a valid CCW permit - firearms can be transported loaded and accessible, but must be not be visible to any observer outside the vehicle. CCW permit holder/owner must be in the vehicle with the firearms at all times that the vehicle is traveling. No restriction on transportation of ammunition, including hollow points, as long as it is not loaded into a firearm or in the same container as a firearm (except for CCW permit holders).

NJ Senate Leader Sweeney seeks NJ Gun Law reform
Good to hear, even if it's just lip service so far. At least the Aitken case seems to have opened some legislative eyes.

My response to the Mt. Laurel Telegraph
Found it, it's the Mt. Laurel Telegram, not telegraph: http://mtlaurel.elauwitmedia.com/2010/12/14/family-speaks-out-in-gun-case/ The relevant part of the article to this discussion:

Tactical X-mas Gift Ideas
As much of a premium as they charge on their stuff, you'd figure they could afford some better editing. No complaints on the model though!

SlideFire stock - "Selectable" bump firing
I bet he's spitting white-hot nails... We'll see if the BATFE changes their opinion on this one too.

Henry Survival Rifle/AR-7
You're on Old School (actually it's "Doug", not "Dan"), I'd be happy to be schooled in how to make mine reliable. You got time in the near future? Cleaning - cleaned the barrel after the two times I fired it, but nothing more than that. Frankly, I was so disappointed in it the two times I tried it that I lost interest in it and relegated it to the back of the safe.

SlideFire stock - "Selectable" bump firing
http://slidefiresolutions.com/Products.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcUHhVmYSmQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6v7fuF1F0s Interesting, wonder if it would be a "collapsible stock" under NJ's view. Not sure what ranges would allow it or if I'd want to deal with all the negative attention when firing it.

Henry Survival Rifle/AR-7
I have one, may be an older model than the one pictured - it looks like there's some slight design changes in the stock and a change of some materials, but the break down is the same. Crude is the word I'd use as well. Mine won't cycle/eject reliably but I admittedly haven't spent much time futzing with it.

Called customer service this morning - talked to a real live person, they gave me their email address and asked that I forward my original order confirm email to them. They said they would issue a credit after reviewing if the confirm email was legit. Nothing further at the moment.

gander mountain 223 @ 29.99 per 100
Thanks for sharing! That's roughly the same price as Cabela's recent sale, but I prefer the Gander Packaging of 100/box - less effort to get at the ammo and less trash. 5 boxes on the way..
