Dick's and pick up a 10/22 tonight late but then it occurred to me that NICS might only be open at certain times... anyone know?

He looks a little "special" if you ask me

You are correct, I dont mean bull barrel I was just referring to the style (wasn't thinking about it), thanks for the info

flash hider? Basically something that looks exactly like the SW M&P 15FT which has a bull barrel but has quad rails and A3 style receiver.

PS passing a law based on technology that doesn't exist has got to be the stupidest Fing thing I have ever heard

Well at least it looks like you will have 3 years to buy whatever you can once the technology is available...

http://www.examiner.com/x-2581-St-Louis-Gun-Rights-Examiner~y2009m2d26-The-idiocy-of-smart-guns Says that laws passed that when the technology becomes available we will have to use it??? news article (from 2002)...http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,73763,00.html WTF?

Start with HD first. Your life is more important than your hobby. You dig? By the way I have shot my NEF Pardner Pump many times, both 00 buck and slugs. You have to trust your life to the firearm you choose for HD, because that's exactly what you will be doing god forbid you ever need to use it. Eh I wouldn't be uncomfortable relying on my USP for HD, althought im sure a shotgun would be much more effective.

Thanks for the answers guys. Now the only problem is that I want a shotgun, 10/22, AR, and a couple more pistols and I dont know where to start!

Wouldn't it be MUCH cheaper for the state to do it legislatively rather then in court (assuming SCOTUS rules our way)? This could definitely work in our favor considering the state budget issues.

One more stupid question: I understand there are restrictions on semi-auto shotguns, but as long as you have a pump action shot gun can it have any of the "evil" features that would otherwise not be allowed on a rifle?

Clays turn to dust with an EBS just the same as they do with any other shotgun. It's just as much fun with the 500 at CR as it is with any other gun. On a trap range, it may be more difficult because of the distances, but it's just a matter of practice. Another newbie question - What is the difference (if any) between clays and trap?

Im sure this questions is stupid, but I dont know the first thing about shotguns - Those of you who have a home defense shotgun, do you ever get a chance to shoot it? You can't really shoot clays with a home defense setup can you? So what do you do in terms of "target" shooting? I know for example that there is a shotgun range at cherry ridge but Ive heard thats just for clays, do people ever go and just practice with their home defense shotgun?

I got a few job offers in various divisions at Picatinny after I graduated from college with a MechE degree (I know 5 or 6 guys that work there currently as civilian engineers). I ended up going into real estate instead but I often regret the decision to turn down those jobs. I currently work for a large construction manager / developer in NYC.

I may end up having to move up to northern Bergen county (by GSP and the border) for work, how is that area?

I can't find it right this second, but if you want an answer right away a similar question was asked a few weeks ago (I think?) that got some responses, might try searching the forum

I realize how subjective this question is and may not even be answerable, but in peoples experiences have you noticed certain towns or areas that are more "republican" (re. gun friendly)? I live in Hoboken so you can imagine how I would want to live in a little bit more of a gun friendly place.

Watch this video: The way the police treat the elderly woman at the beginning is just disgusting, not only do they illegally force their way in her home, but they tackle her when she shows them her legally owned gun, then confiscate it.

All you need to do is consider what happened during Katrina, when NOPD illegally tried (and succeeded in many cases) to confiscate citizens guns during the chrisis at a time when people needed protection more than ever. As mentioned above, if the government knows what you own then you are going to have a hell of a time telling the armed men at your door to f - off.... of course the smart ones will use the old "I lost all of my guns in a bad canoeing accident" line...

Well yes, I keep a flashlight on the nightstand I more mean attached to the gun vs. a flashlight

Have you gone to the station? Detectives never return phone calls, they have better things to worry about, just show up at the station and it will probably be fine
