This would be a concern for me. moisture has a funny way of getting in every nook and cranny. I think no matter where you put the safe, humidity will be your enemy...it's just a matter of how much.

This site is addicting, huh? There will always be a difference of opinion in any forums. Don't let it get to you. I think what you're seeing is the frustration with the strict gun laws that make common folks like us into "suspects". Add that to a Sgt. giving someone a hard time over a legal firearm...and you see the result.

nice battle rifles there. Although, why no bolt action love?

i was there with janet from 10 to 12pm. The place was packed! good thing we got there early, and thank god for the membership...although it kinda sucked that they have to kick you out after 2 hours (then i guess you go back to the line and wait your turn again) when it's busy.

I can tell you, he's got my vote if he makes it past the nominations.I really don't like the rest of them, so I might not vote if that guy doesn't get nominated.

i also find it funny that half of the LEOs i know don't even like carrying off-duty. I tell them to take advantage and start carrying because they don't know what it's like to not have that option.

adding an xtra inch on the barrel will make the gun only an inch more accurate. once the bullet leaves the barrel, the bullet will stay the same course.

i also had to do 2 sagem morpho prints within a 3 week period. While volunteering for a school, i needed prints. I told the person I just got it done with sagem morpho 3 weeks prior. She said it was needed again because the first prints were for a completely different thing and each background check had different requirements.

I might as well beat our G&S Police to the punch... they're for the first part, their for the second.

your SBI number is like a SSN. It sticks with you for life. I first got it when I applied for an FID in the mid 90s. Same file when they did a background check on me for my employment. They also used the same number when i got my SORA certification in 2010.

i think the issue is why it even has to come up just because the caller mentions it. If the caller had said "i have a knife to protect myself if he gets in", will the sgt ask to see the knife to make sure it wasn't one of the banned knives?

Sure, but if I was just in a stressful situation, and my blood is boiling, heart rate elevated, I would not be in the mood for BS like that. When that happens, stuff just comes out of my mouth. i lose what little filter i have.

have you considered some of the heavier, steel guns?

i probably would have said "I ain't showing you shiitt, get the hell out of my house!" And if i get handcuffed and dragged out of my house,I'd imagine a lot of lawyers wanting to represent me for a big payday.

They're right. All CCW holders are dangerous! the safest CCW holders are the ones from jersey. all 5 of them.

i see your point, however, one can argue that "guilty by association" is never a good thing. It's like when someone calls you an a-hole then turns to your wife and say "you're an a-hole too just for being married to him." Now does that sound right?

whatever it was, it wasn't an illegal substance.

so why not just file an exemption outright? you got the permit, you have the serial number on the gun. filing for an exemption is easy (thanks, PK90!).

how about typing up a living will "i bequeath my pistol to my son today, as part of his inheritance." and having it notarized? now it's "willed", exempted from OGAM (after filing), and follows the law.

damn! now there's 3 of us in this race????

probably soon, since Sig and all the other gunwebsites already have an item number (1911-9-sme or 1911t9sme) for it.

Yeah, even your FID is no good, since that's an old fingerprint there. you need a new fingerprint.

Hey buddy, I've seen you shoot a wheel gun.You're very proficient at it. What's wrong with using that for home defense?

it's not too bad. The one thing that I saw which made me reconsider was the "employer's letter of justification" or something to that effect. It might be one of those town requirements as opposed to what's actually written in the law books.

you might be looking at the match grade or 20 per box stuff. you gotta get the cheap, somewhat dirty, but non-corrosive milsurp stuff. the rifle eats that up like nothing, and as long as you clean the rifle after each session, you should be good to go.
