Just got a text that made me think
when I go into a place where I am not usually, but can be expected to be (Moms house). Ring bell, enter and loudly announce "Mom, it's Pete" makes things a lot simpler.

Yes, another appeal for advice on home improvement
Then you are one that does need a cleaning. Pets and age make the odds of really needing a cleaning much greater. If you pulled that much hair and stuff out, then airflow is greatly restricted costing you money.

Man allegedly shoots down neighbor’s drone with shotgun
No, just saying there is a time and place for everything. Over a sporting event is not the place. From the periphery, fine over the playing field NO. Over someones private property is not the place. Over a public beach, over a public gathering fine. I would not have had a problem if the quad was over the stands or even if it was out in the outfield away from the players. It was over the FIELD.

Man allegedly shoots down neighbor’s drone with shotgun
Okay my bad, was buzzing the infield for ~1/2 hour then stopped for 5 minutes and came back for another 1/2 hour. Yep that's completely different from flying for an hour. At 100-200 feet it was quite audible. Players kept looking up at it. What happens when someone gets hit with a batted ball, because they were distracted by the very loud buzzing? Of course it won't be the drone operators fault. Go to the field where you made your demo video, at night, see if you can fly the drone out of your view range. At night 100yds is about all you can see. So FAA rules really didn't apply did they? And no, no pictures of my family, make it to the Internet.

Man allegedly shoots down neighbor’s drone with shotgun
He may have landed it out of sight (night game) and changed batteries.A person with a cellphone taking pictures can be seen, evaluated for a threat, and confronted/police called if they are suspicious. How would that police call go for a drone with no visible operator.

Man allegedly shoots down neighbor’s drone with shotgun
At my 13 yo daughters softball game last night some clown was flying a quad around over the infield @ ~100 - 200 feet. No one in sight was operating it, no one knew whose it was. It was up for around an hour. The girls did not like it one bit. Some of the parents were discussing taking shots at it with softballs.

Gun Friendly Optometrist in Union County Area.
Well, Just got back from the eye doctor and it's time to change the shooting glasses again. I have a pretty heavy prescription so I need someone that will be able to help me out getting a pair that offers good eye coverage (wraparound). Any suggestions?

Training an "experienced" gun owner
Also the requirement of shooting or participating in the events reenforces safety. In all the matches I've been at, no one got upset over anything other than potential safety violations. And you have 8-10 people watching so a potential unsafe conditions can be handled before an accident occurs.

Bit by the Sig Bug: 229 vs. 226?
For range use the P226, since you like the 92fs. They are very similar shooting. The weight difference between a elite and a standard is noticable.

How many of you have loaded guns in your safe?
Quick access, loaded. Safe unloaded but with loaded mags in safe. i see no reason to leave the safe guns loaded. If I have the time to open the safe, an extra couple of seconds to load won't make any difference.

Kudos to Safariland x 2
And now they have a guaranteed repeat customer, who will give them favorable reviews. Seems like a cheap way to get good publicity. The way CS should be.

Inherited reloading equipment.. Nowhere to start.
When bolting press down, you want something extremely stable. A 30-06 will take a little force to resize if you full length size. Read, Read Read. If you have even the slightest doubt, stop ask a question or read more. Are you looking to wet tumble or dry vibrate? Wet: http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/70444-advice-on-wet-tumbler/?p=891337 if ALec still has his or http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/61639-some-real-grungy-brass-turned-to-bling/?hl=%2Bgrungy+%2Bbrass+%2Bturned+%2Bbling Dry: Any number of places to get one. I have a Harbor Freight that has been going strong for 5 years with no burps. Got it for ~49 buck IIRC

Hated that entire series of commercials. "Lets celebrate idiots". Bah. Now, Bud Weis Er frogs is classic. Anything that upsets the "for the children" crowd is great in my book.
