Remington Recall
Wow.. that's bad for them. At least they are covering the cost of the gun. Kind of sucks if you paid transfer and NIC's on it though.

First Purchase
I've talked to some other guys who bought there.. their mags have rivets in them blocking them to 15 rounds.

Very Nice! Those stages look pretty awesome. But still. The question remains... Can you only run 1 gun, or can you run a rifle and Pistol?

GLOCK Question ?!?!?!?!?!?!
He is correct. It is a federal law, I *think* it was part of Klinton's Gun ban back in '94. Basically the gist of it is, that a pistol needs to have a certain number of "safe" features before it can be imported. (Caliber, Weight, Size, among, I think other things). The .380 Glocks are so small that they were considered "Saturday Night Specials".. and therefore summarily banned by retards who got elected.

NYC to Morris County

5X10 Enclosed Trailer
It would be a fish and game regulation rather than an actual criminal law. I'm just going on a limb here, but doesn't the MVC register them as "special use vehicles"?

I'm sorry KenW, I have to correct you on a few points.

Welcome to NJ! I guess it's a step better than NYC.

Would it be considered a vehicle? I know you can't hunt from a vehicle in NJ without being disabled and getting a special permit.

SORA Security Officer Training at GFH
When I worked as a security guard, they took it out of my pay. I quit before I finished the process, so my last "paycheck" was for negative dollars

5X10 Enclosed Trailer
You could always just get one of those 10x10 "instant up" canopies that go on sale for like $80.. and place it with the edge over the back of the trailer to make it almost like a porch.. and they fold up small, could go under the bench.. The gravity water system, is essentially two water tanks and a small "sink".. could be something like a 5 gallon and a 6 gallon.. + You put some sort of valve on the 5 gallon, and put it higher than the other.. the 6 gallon acts as the waste tank.. and if it's bigger than the top, it will never overflow. The battery/inverter system is just to get 120VAC silently.. depends on what you are going to be doing with it.. on a day like yesterday.. i would pay good money to be able to be able to shoot while AC was blowing on me I have 5 of the 10X10 or it may even be a 12X12 pop up canopy. the sink thing still sounds like it would trouble with the way these trailers bounce around when there isn't a lot of weight in there. How much would a battery/inverter cost? Depends on how much capacity you want If you want something to run a 5,000 btu ac for 10-12 hours, you are probably looking at least a grand.. if you want to run a small radio on 120VAC, maybe $50

5X10 Enclosed Trailer
Range vechicle, Got pictures? I don't have any pics.. just ideas in my head.. I was thinking a padded bench/couch for taking a break.. gun racks.. storage for target frames.. a table.. maybe a grill for hotdogs/hamburgers.. large cooler for soda and water.. Was thinking about a gravity water system so you can wash your hands.. I would like to work up a battery bank and large inverter to run an AC unit.. fold out or pop up awning...

Henry Survival Rifle
The action is pretty simple. It's just blow-back and theres two little recoil springs in there. Not much of a feed ramp on it due to the way it was designed. The instructions say it likes "high velocity ammo". The one I had LOVED CCI Stingers. Some of the bulk pack stuff started to get a little picky once the gun got dirty. It likes the extra energy from the Higher Power loads. Like chad said, you can put a scope on it with the dovetail mounts, but then, it does not fit into the stock any longer. Any halfway decent 4x scope would be fine for it. I kind of like it's "peep" sights.. more than adequate to take a squirrel or something like that at 25 yards.

Rimfire Action Match
Hey Iggy! Welcome to NJGF! How did the first match go? I wanted to come, but I forgot the mags on Friday when I wanted to sight in my rifle.. and I forgot to wake up early on Saturday because I'm lazy! I'm sure people here would want to know: Do you need both a rifle AND pistol? or, What if you wanted to run both? Is the short for pistols, and the long for rifles?

Did you get that 15 round mag to fit? or did you not mess with it yet?

Electric parts washer for guns?
Brownells sells a small one suitable for small parts, and I know you can get cheapies at Harbor Freight. One big enough for a full rifle and shotgun will probably cost a pretty penny.

Philadelphia Derringer
Man... Sportsman's Center had one of these sitting in the bottom of the case for $150 today.. If I lived in America and didn't need a POS Permit... I woulda bought it on the spot.. even at it's inflated price. ... Like I'm going to go hold up a liquor store with a single shot muzzle loading pistol... grrrr

range report
Problem is... shooting outside is not as convenient per say. No returning targets. Have to wait for an all clear based on everyone else. If the club gets busy... can get hectic. Though I do love shooting outdoors. =) I've NEVER gone to my range (during "open" shooting) where I didn't have a private pistol pit.. and on the 100 yard range, there at most, have been 2 other shooters. The multiple 100 yard walks to check/change your targets in the 100 degree heat can be a killer though.. Thats when you just drive the truck down there.. haha... I gotta get a spotting scope I like the outdoors, it doesn't make me feel like I'm doing anything illegal.. instead of cramped inside, loud, full of lead dust in the air.. worrying about getting shot through the stall wall..
