Rod w/brush & patches for handguns, Breakfree w/ toothbrush on some bits, qtips, and the Bore Cleaner du jour is a foul smelling bottle of Birchwood Casey stuff reeks like ammonia real bad, but gets the job done. Have heard Butch's removes copper fouling even easier, may get a small bottle of that after the BC stuff used up. Had an OCD thing with copper in the Sig barrel grooves, Hoppes would NOT get rid of it, no matter how much I glopped in there & let sit. Lube with a drop or two of Hoppes oil and TW25 grease from a syringe on the slide rails, lite coat of oil from patch thru bore. For the rifles, boresnake w. Hoppes sprayed on it in the bore, also have rod for the M1, with muzzle protector, that gets brush & patches with BC & oil when done, or boresnake with oil soaked section. I wash the boresnakes after every cleaning. Lube for 10/22 is a dry lube spray can,on the advice of the rimfirecentral.com crowd. I used TW25 to grease the M1 originally, but have got a tube of Tetra, put that on last I cleaned it a week ago. I still may get the lifetime supply of Lubriplate can from Brownells :mrgreen:

:text-welcomewave:

I too, would love to get the M1 carbine off the idiotic list in NJ. Better yet, get rid of the list entirely, but that may be too much for the moment. I would hope there would not be a specific manufacturer of carbine to be 'allowed', would prefer the real thing from CMP. On another note, someone else on this site said there was a big bank robbery in Northern NJ (figures) just about the time the NJ AWB list was made up, and supposedly the perps used an M1 carbine. Or perhaps in was an M2, which of course woulda been illegal then, never mind they were used in a crime. Dunno if thats the reason its on the list, but make s as much sense as anything else here

Yes, I believe they shut down outdoor ranges on those days they alow members to hunt. I am not a hunter, guess its coming up soon, maybe mauser or Wolfy can chime in on that one

Yeah, I am hoping to actually handle and maybe shoot one so I can make my mind up. The threaded barrel bit may be an issue, as it already has a folding stock, sort of, making two evil features. I emailed Keltec to see if there was a way to get that model with a permanent muzzle brake. The pix & parts list show a threaded barrel plus a cap that goes onto it, looks like a knurled type thing. I would assume that wouldn't cut the mustard for NJ. The other alternative is an SKS, but I lean towards brand new, rather than milsurp, already have one old rifle & handgun

The way it was 'splained to me was the capital contribution fees ($400 one time at CJRPC) were the aggregate of all the extra fees members paid over the years for various extra/emergency things, in addition to the yearly membership fee ($200). the point being the oldest member and newest member are equal as far as paying for facilites & upgrades. I understand if its far away and you cant make it much, that's a lot, or if you shoot very little its not worth it. I don't have a beef with any club that does this, if its known beforehand, you have the choice. Taxes always go up (this IS NJ, after all) and there are always some things to pay for, like lead remediation, dealing with insurance----I would bet that's a HUGE expense for any gun club, especially in a Demolib HELL like Middlesex county :twisted: ) Ft. Dix is an option nearby, super cheap but limited operating hours and pistol range has been closed forever, so it seems.

Yeah, he's the guy with no arms & legs thats nailed to the wall

Anyone have one of these or shot one? Since handguns are so annoyingly difficult to get in NJ, I am thinking of one of these as I get more into rifles. I dont want an AR per se, but these do have some parts that are similar, plus the tricksy factor of the folding and built in bipod. A question on the threaded barrel, is that OK to ship to NJ as is? I would get a MB/comp for it anyway. Just gathering opinions....

The DoD has a civilian police force, all gov employees, that have pretty much taken the run of the mill LEO duties away form MP/SF/MOA, etc. at fixed installations. They do the traffic tickets, accidents, sometimes guard gates (sometimes that is contracted), roust drunken parties, etc. etc. They do not deploy. All of them are ex Civilian LEO or military MP. The MPs and whatever still do some of the security work, but at a lot of places (Ft Monmouth & Dix, various reserve places) don't have any MPs assigned, or have very few soldiers/sailors/airmen/marines to press into that duty. Military people take care of the most important areas, such as weapons storage, nuke sites, ships, and spy stuff

I'd vote for a stripper! But about Lou Dobbs, who cares? I never watched his show, I thought he was a business reporter. I don't watch cable news anything anymore, I watch only local news and weather on TV, and maybe a movie once in awhile, and game shows with the kids. WOF is good to help with letters I think. My wife watches "reality" TV stuff like the show where the fat people are supposed to lose weight, and the dancing one, and The Amazing Race. That one is at least entertaining somewhat, I can watch that on occasion, if there's NFL cheerleaders on it

I saw 3 last week at the Colliers Mills WMA maintenance area on Hawkin Rd. ON the road heading toward the Llama corral. Maybe they can read calendars??? :shifty:

No worries, I shot the last 20 rd of .22 I had and last clip in the M1, then moved inside, so did Gil. See you AT ba OF cj!

Like oil and Hoppes and Breakfree, my wife wont come near my desk....oh well

Now wont make it till noon or so, tiny, change of plans with something else. Hope the rain holds off---

Hmm, IIRC a forumster owns some vehicle cleaning establishments, that would certainly be..unique? Crocheted(?) seat covers, anhyone? :mrgreen:

http://www.nj.com/hudson/index.ssf/2009 ... shoot.html Or is this a euphemism for some other type of ND?

What was the range?

It's a Fed holiday, so I am off, since the place I work is closed. Forecast is cooler & damp, just missing the good weather by a day :cry: I will be there between 9;30-1030AM, till after lunch, NLT 2PM-ish may go indoors for pistol & .22 if its bad out--

I love my P226R, I did get it from BA, and did shoot one before buying. Sigs had come recommeneded by two of my employees and a guy who works at BA PT who is a bit of a Sig aficionado I knew the aforementioned person outside of BA and also knew others thru work that went there, so it was a case of being around people I knew. I did go to SS once, nice staff, lots of selection, rent them all and see what you like. It's GREAT to have alternatives, I think us in the So. Monmouth/N. Ocean area are extremely lucky as far as firearms in NJ go (shops, FFLS, ranges).

I am off that day so am planning to head to CJRPC . Will hit the GP range and maybe pistol. Will have the M1 and .45, 10/22 and P226. Not sure of time, may be anywhere between 9am-noon. May also hit hi-power, i just picked up 200 yd targets. This is not a formal meetup or trip, just saying I will be there if any other members might be there that day.

Hitler. there, now Godwinned, lock it up already.....

gangsta

+1 on that, also a good ego boost to shoot out a center with a rifle, after failing to hit the paper at 7 yds with a hand gun :oops:
