    I am interested incarrying around the house perimeter when I am working in my detatched garage. However I have a shared drive way. Its a little tricky. However I think I am going to mount a discreet gunsafe in my garage and only "load" it when I am working in it..
  4. Interesting. I got 3 spam emails to my email address that I use for the forum and another a few other places. I have never had any before. I wonder if it was related. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. http://www.hulu.com/...-anthem?c=1:199 I guess you can't link hulu here. Anyway, SNL Maya Rudolph sings the national anthem.
  6. Does that thread still exist? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. That's some funny sit right there
  8. Why would you pour fuel into the carb? I am picturing right over the butterfly valve. You mean into the bowl, right?
  9. cut 'cha balls off. P.S. it's not an electric fence

  11. I have a light and laser on my go to HD pistol but not my other pistols. I too took the GFH low light class and it changed my thinking a bit. We all know that low light encounters are the most likely kind and you have only to think about a break in at 2 am to realize that being effective in the dark should be a very high priority, training wise. The class gives you experiences in a range with a few guys trying to stress you so you get a small gauge of what it would look and feel like in the dark. Good luck being able to practice that on your own. One thing in particular to consider is that in the dark you can't pick up your sights as you do in the light because of the way the rods and cones of your eyes work. Your night vision is peripheral vision. As good as the experience was in the class, my small experience with actual combat made me very aware of how quick the situations start and stop - that being able to give a good snappy response is the difference between the quick and the dead, and that closing an eye and lining up two sights while both your eyes are popping out of your head and the gun is firing inside your house with no ear protection... it's going to change everything for you. So my conclusion has been that I would rather be prepared to react quickly and accuarately while filled with adrenaline and get the muzzle on target as quickly as possible. For me, the laser and light are there to give me all the advantages. That said, I put the light and the laser on together. There is no point to seeing just a dot in the pitch black.
  12. I too agree it is in how it is written. The point of the law, as I see it, is that if a citizen is attacked in the course of a crime, be it an assault or a robbery, they were at risk both criminally and in civil court by not first choosing to "run off." They are then on the defensive against the wailing mothers of the deceased, saying how he or she wouldn't hurt a fly. The person defending themselves first has to prove that they tried to leave but the attacker persisted, that the attacker was a committing a crime and/or gave them enough fear that they were afraid for their lives. That seems like a very hard case to defend, especially if you went through lengths to get a CCW and learn how to use it and the other guy had just fists. On the other hand, Stand your Ground laws seem to have created incidents - at least three anyway - where an individual with a carry license starts an argument, gets his a** beat and then kills the guy that was punching his lights out. No one can agree to that that is the intent of the law, quite the oposite. That one incident with the guy skateboarding - sure I can get annoyed with people, but would I get in the face of some guy while carrying a pistol of it? No. But I don't think the above is vigilantism. I think it is some people with poor judgement without clear guidance on how to get out of a heated situation without having a fight. But lastly, what really gets me is just moderen society. You SHOULD, be able to have a heated discussion without worrying about some Uber fighter dude just thinking he can beat your a**. That has been going on forever. This is the situation that could be viewed as the core of the issue. If I get into a fender bender with some guy that is half my age, in tip top condition and has nothing to lose by knocking me down, what is exactly my duty to retreat? Wouldn't I do that anyway given the disparity of strength and ability? Should I leave my car and property just because some musclehead is also a hot head? What if I am with my wife? In NJ I do. It may or may not be the best and safest thing to do, but the only people in that case that would be retreating would be the weaker. I don't see how I am better off being told to run away from any incident. Even worse is what if that hothead also has a pistol? There is a median somewhere. The intent is correct, but hot heads are making it look like it isn't getting the results that we would have expected.
  13. Wha? Great, now need to know who to figure out which "burglaries" we're at gun point in order to know how many home invasions there were in New Jersey. Lovely. Anyone know how this is differentiated in the stats?
  14. Not to nit pick, but that is a burglary, not a robbery.
  15. Tragic as the is, so much to be learned from it. Tires? Speed? Brake adjustment? Just keeping off the slush in the center? Amazing how quick life can disappear.
  16. I'd like to try the hydraulic pump in that box.
  17. I don't have to tell you guys it is a circus. As such, a circus can have three rings. Ring one: racism ( Al Sharpton's beef) Ring Two: Guns and concealed carry Ring Three: Stand Your ground immunity and those proteced by it when using a gun. Those three rings are all barking for your attention. Sharpton may not have anything to do or care about Ring three. In other words the whole debate is not one debate. That is why this is so fluid and dangerous.
  18. That does sound interesting. There is never enough prep for for the possibility of injury, if you ask me.
  19. I drive out of state to buy those. It is cheaper for me to do that then pay shipping and a hazmat. And PA is closer than any other stocking NJ dealer. Depending on where you are located and can be very worthwhile.
  20. This is called a "crime of passion,". Which has little to do with love. It is an over riding emotional response that has nothing to do with a logical and equitable response to something done to them. Fair and reasonable left the building. The problem with this in society is that ordinary, rational people can sometimes get to this point without displaying any kind of day to day weirdness.
  21. For a black journalists to write this http://www.cnn.com/2....html?hpt=hp_c3 I think this is not only very brave, but also reflects what a great many already feel and believe.
  22. JR Cigar gives vets a 10% discount too. They accept a VFW card. However the Lowes and Home Depot discount is for retired, active, reserve or disabled vets. They extend the veterans discount to all vets on specific holiday weekends; memorial day, fourth of July and veteran's day. Home depot has a fourth holiday but I can't remember which one.
