Seal Team 6 Helicopter crash
I've only been on them a handful of times, but never experienced a landing. Crash or normal. This is really bothering me. The death of the SEALs breaks my heart. But this is very bizarre. 25 SEAL Team 6 killed in a Shithook? Now, I know the press gets it 90% wrong early, and 80% wrong once it's settled history, and back to 90% wrong with SEALs, but there is no reason for 25 SEAL Team 6 to be killed in a Shithook. WTF? That's a platoon or even a weak company. This is not the first time this has happened. They had to have SEALs land dingys to capture an airfield in Panama and they were discovered and all shot up. Ummm... Guess who captures airfields for a living? That wouldn't even be necessary. Army or Marines could have driven in there and simply said, "Get bent or get shot." And that's what ended up happening after many of the SEALs died. Because the SEALS were all gathered in tiny little groups on tiny little boats on water near the shoreline. Didn't we loose a shitload of SEALs in a a Shithook shoot-down about 5 years ago in Afghanistan? Why TF do we need to send dozens of SEALs to do a job over land? Marines have SF now. Send top SF Marines led by SEALs. Like Special Forces does with Rangers. WTF do I know. I don't know. I've just been watching this crap for over 20 years and during that time large groups of SEALs get killed over and over again. I'm sure I only hear about what goes wrong and not what goes well, but it just seems like they are misused.

ncstar red dots
I have one like that on a 9mm submachinegun. Worked great for about three months, then started flickering out. Took it completely apart (I mean completely) and tightened the screws under the rheostat wafer, worked great and held zero for about 2-1/2 years and several thousands of rounds of 9mm in FA. About a year ago I somehow F'd up the locking screw, maybe I stripped it or something. Now, it's time to ditch the thing, since it's a $50 sight. I will buy another. I expect it will work for 3 months, then I will have to fix it, then it will work for 2-1/2 years. Because it is the second one of these that I brought back to life after it died three months in. The other one is still going strong.

Palmetto State Armory Upper @ Range w/Video
Well, that sucks (primers). But I'd still rather have a bad day at the range than a good day at work. Looks like the weather was nice. Looks like a nice range.

Ammoman run!
Yeah, I guess you don't have walmart ammo, so he's probably a decent substitute for handgun ammo. BTW - you don't need to use a credit card to buy ammo over the web. You can send a money order. EDIT: If I was in the area I wouldn't mind checking out his operation.

Anyone have a non-resident FL, VA, and/or Utah CCW?
Well, if you are going to live in a state (or Commonwealth), it definitely makes sense to have a license from that state. For you, the answer is, probably not. PA gives non-res permits only to people that have permits from their own state, if their own state does indeed issue permits. It may be a joke, but NJ does issue permits, so you need to have an NJ permit as an NJ resident to get a non-resident PA LTCF.

Also, if you are going to be spending a lot of time in another state on a regular basis, it might make sense just to go ahead and get a license from that state even if you are already covered by another state. Might cause less of a delay if you run into LEO. Plus, the Gun Free School Zone B.S. Personally, I don't really believe in the Gun Free School Zone stuff. I doubt local police are pinching people for being in school zones on out of state licenses very often. But, it can't hurt to get a license from a state you spend a lot of time in.

FID Card question.... :-/
You have an NJ Carry Permit? Or are you refering to the FID?
-
FID Card question.... :-/
The last couple places I shot at in NJ required my FID for me to rent a lane. I finally got fed up with all the nonsense and stopped shooting altogether for about 5 years. While I prepared to beat feet!

I need to get Maine. I downloaded the application but never sent it in. No interest in CT, and no need for VA for me.

Rifle Golf
I thought it was either that or shooting at golfballs (which is fun BTW). Judging by the comments on that page, everybody else thought so, too.

Another Shooting in Philly
Yeah, I guess if you want to see a game or a concert I can understand. Most guys I know just sneak their handgun in. Talking about the games, I don't know about concerts. The wisdom of this may be questionable. But, so far, it seems when they are caught they are simply told to put it in their car. And then they just come back and put them in the lockers instead.

In that case, I wish he'd stop traveling so much. It's screwing up the tides

Ammoman run!
I really don't get it. You can get ammo cheaper from several places, even with shipping charges added to the bottom line. Are you guys buying by the box or something?

Not seeing a list of states on those pages. But, I haven't been there in decades anyway. That kinda sucks.

Man seen with a gun @ Virginia Tech
I conceal when I go to any college. Which is only a handful of times per year to begin with.
