Traffic court help
Apparently $250 twice, then you have to ask for your $250 back because you used it twice..... ????

Anything happen in early 2004 for FPID format to have changed
They probably thought if they took it off the cards at some point people would be arguing whether or not it is legal to carry your unloaded rifle or shotgun. Probably why this topic comes up on the forum ad nauseam...

Any authority that says it is legal to have unloaded long gun as long as you have the FID card?
NJ State Legislature seems to be the authority...

Garden State Veterinary services
Garden State is a great animal hospital with a very good friendly staff. Where are you located? If you don't mind traveling to Hamilton area, NorthStar Vet is one of the best animal hospitals in the country. They are open 24hrs as well. Both of them are great though! You can't go wrong with Garden State if you are close by. I WOULD NOT recommend Red Bank Animal Hos.

Questions on parts for milspec AR
Almost jumped on it, but went with the Primary Arms deal a few days ago on the original folding. Gonna grab that one next. I like it...

Questions on parts for milspec AR
How do you like the Troy Di-Optic rear sight?

PAFOA
Yes, it's when you go on the forum.PAFOA.com part of the site. The newest edition of FireFox popped it up for me. Do not use chrome. FireFox is probably throwing up a flag because they use a "sub domain" forum.PAFOA on their site. If you hit "ignore this warning and continue" it will bring you to their site. I'm sure you are just hitting up the Classifieds, haah.

Greetings from Princeton
Great collection, welcome.

shot show goodies
Channellocks work perfect. Instead of taping up the lower, tape up the pliers. Use medical tape. Set the roll pin by hand to get it in place and send it home with the pliers. The "top" jaw the plier goes against the lower and "bottom" jaw of the plier goes against the roll pin. Then, send it...

New toy (a bit odd)
Beautiful looking piece. Good grab.

Red dot vs. 1-4 optic for carbine
Yes, you might have a bad astigmatism in your eye. People with two ocular focal points will have issues with angular resolution. Instead of one circular dot, you will get a bunch of super tiny dots making up a somewhat circular red dot. This will happen slightly with a Aimpoint. Instead of a ton of different little dots, you will usually get two dots slightly off depending on where your second focal point is in the eye.

Red dot vs. 1-4 optic for carbine
The red dot does not increase in size due to angular resolution or Diffraction limited systems. The sight picture or "background" does increase in size. The reflection of light does not increase do to the wavelength of the light. There is a very simple to understand formula to explain it, LOL... Approximated the diffraction limit as , where d is the resolvable feature size, λ is the wavelength of light, n is the index of refraction of the medium being imaged in, and θ (depicted as α in the inscription) is the half-angle subtended by the optical objective lens.

Red dot vs. 1-4 optic for carbine
Nothing to be sorry over, you are correct. It will not be a 6" dot at 100 yards. BUT, I never stated it would be 6 MOA. I stated a 6 MOA dot at 100 yards is not that large. What I meant to say was OPTICALLY the red dot will increase with magnification. Thank you for pointing that out for clarification for anyone reading this thread. HOWEVER The EOTech dot is diffraction limited. When you use a magnifier to magnify the background, the dot is not magnified. Your statement below is incorrect. The EOTech dot does not increase in size with magnification.

Red dot vs. 1-4 optic for carbine
When magnifying the Aimpoint, the dot size will increase. However, with an EOTech you will not have an increase in dot size. The Aimpoint PRO has a 2 MOA dot. 6 MOA dot at 100 yards is not very large. Here is a pic of an EOTech with no magnification. http://s2.photobucket.com/user/los3088/media/EOTechphotos00925.jpg.html And the same pic with the 3x magnifier behind it. http://s2.photobucket.com/user/los3088/media/EOTechphotos01125.jpg.html You will have a similar issue with the 1-4 zoom scopes. Depending on whether it is first or second focal plane. First focal plane will have the reticle increase in size as you zoom. Second focal plane the reticle will stay the same size, which zoomed in is very thin. They both have their pros and cons. The pro for the first focal plane increasing is size is being able to keep the MOA markers, Mil dots or "Hash Grid" in spec with the actual target. So a Mil Dot at 100 yards will be 1" at the target. The con is the reticle can get quite large zoomed in. The pro for the second focal plane is the reticle is super thin zoomed in for precision shots. Obviously the con is you can only use the Hash Grid at a specific zoom on the scope. Some more food for thought when buying a variable scope. Here is a good video from Vortex to explain the focal planes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XgugJSqpoE#t=79 As Vlad said, some do not like the flip to side magnifier and some love it. That being said, I love the 1-4 zoom setup and the red dot with flip to side zoom.

DPMS 308 (almost done)
I'm right there with ya on that one.

DPMS 308 (almost done)
Whether there is a forward assist, dust cover or shell deflector. 308 Sportical has none of the above, SASS has the forward assist built into the shell deflector and a dust cover, etc... That is how the bolt side would tell that.
