Spitzer-tipped .22lr
Looks like some company came along and claims to make what I'm looking for: http://www.rimfireuniverse.com/products.html I suspect its claims are mostly marketing BS

Glock 17 vs. Glock 21
My vote is for G21... Reduced cap 17 is potential firepower wasted.

SAF welcome packet returned undeliverable
I got an email from SAF last week asking me to confirm my address, because my new member welcome packet was returned undeliverable. The address they had on file was correct (right down to the zip+4 code) and I've received both USPS and courier mail at this address for about 5 months now. Never had a single problem. I asked them to retry to the same address. Still haven't received anything yet. Just a fluke or honest mistake? Or a postal worker somewhere between WA and NJ sending a very subtle political message?

Gun Buyback in Bergen County Today 1p - 5p
If it's made of metal and the person who accepts the weapons is a clerk and not a cop, you probably could!

Petition to change NJ CCW laws!
I'd love to see a copy of that letter. Lest I seem sarcastic, understand that I'm not questioning the validity of your statement; I would genuinely get a laugh out of it if you'd share.

Spot the problem.
How the hell is that even staying in there Do you think it means she is a truly incompetent cop, or was she just posing for the picture and didn't happen to notice when someone handed it to her?

Speedometer thrown off
Probably not... There's always a chance you might catch a break if you bring proof of speedo correction when you go to trial, though.

FMJ VS SWAGED OR ROUND LEAD
That's probably why, yeah. I've also heard the partially unsupported case could kB! on reloads due to weakened brass... but if I had a glock I'd still shoot reloaded FMJ-- you'd probably have to shoot and reload the same brass many times before it became weak enough to explode. And that would go for any handgun, fully supported or not. It's interesting to note that the manual for my Springer not only recommends against cocked and locked, but also keeping it loaded (rounds in the mag). Um, that's the whole point of a 1911, isn't it?? Methinks there's a lot of CUYA going on.

FMJ VS SWAGED OR ROUND LEAD
From what I've read, you shouldn't shoot lead through a Glock (or reloads for that matter, but some would argue that). Totally safe to shoot lead through your Kimber or M9. You'll have to use a bore brush more often than FMJ but at least you don't have to deal with the slightly more stubborn copper fouling.

OIL !!!!
I clean all parts with Breakfree CLP which also acts as a light lube, and use Birchwood-Casey SNO grease on slide rails and bolts.

Spitzer-tipped .22lr
There were a few ammo types listed as "polymer tip" on ammoengine but the pictures looked like truncated cone copper plated lead. Damn, was looking for something to get a little more distance out of the 22.

Spitzer-tipped .22lr
Anyone know if there is such an animal as a .22lr spitzer round for a bolt action? Haven't found much in a google search.

GUN SHOW
I don't think private sale requires NICS, just a COE. If so that would explain it.
