Star Wars! No spoilers!
Just walked out of TFA in 3D. Kinda had the same feeling I did when I was 11 with ANH. This movie is meant to be seen in 3D. Utterly amazing.

Star Wars! No spoilers!
I remember, I was 11 when I saw Episode IV, when it came out back in 1977. I remember walking out of the theater with my mouth hanging open. No one had ever done anything like that before, and I, as were all of my friends, was completely blown away. I've been a bit of a SW geek ever since. I was underwhelmed with the subsiquent George Lucas versions. He could have left off Episode I all together, as far as I am concerned. I saw VII in 2D a couple of weeks ago, and I'm going this morning to see it again in 3D. I liked it, quite a bit more than I did the Lucas movies. I was a little worried that Disney/JJ were going to royally screw the pooch on this one, but they did a nice job of telling the story. Awesome X-wing porn too! I look forward to the next installment due in 2017. ETA: I've become a bit of a collector of SW memorabilia in the last few years. I have a few studio scale models of the ships, but one of my favorites is the 3D cross section model of the X-wing. Pic of mine attached, but more information here: http://www.rebelscum.com/story/euro/Kotobukiya_Spotlight_XWing_Fighter_3D_Vehicle_111581.asp Pretty cool, for the SW geek.

Hardware storage?
Small hardware, I use the little plastic containers with dividers....like you would find in a fishing tackle box. I use a label maker to mark the contents of the compartment. Larger stuff, I use coffee cans, or even old mason jars.

Ammo cans
I don't know about Mobil 1 grease, but this will work perfectly: http://www.super-lube.com/silicone-lubricating-grease-with-syncolon-ptfe-ezp-53.html Some grease has additives that may harm o-rings. Not sure if Mobil 1 is suitable for rubber or viton o-rings. The Super Lube Sillicone grease is fine.

Ammo cans
I grease them with vacuum grease, but I have a lot of that on hand for my job. Any silicone based grease will work.

Thoughts On Urban Survival......Read It.
I first read this a few years ago. It was nice to re-read and refer back to it to refresh in my mind what a more likely SHTF scenario would look like, and what would be important to have/know. Thanks for posting that.

Hog hunting in s jersey
Hogs aren't particularly hard to kill. We use 5.56 out at the ranch in Tx. Most of our shots are under 100 yards, and we prefer head shots. Game over, instantaneously.

Bcm gunfighter stock .
Subject for quite the heated debate, but the law does not specify that the stock need be pinned, only that it cannot be adjustable. This is the method I use for my stocks: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_4/607375_How_to_pin_an_MOE_Stock__for_ban_states_.html No pin required.

Looking for used HK USP 40
Good luck on your search. I have a H&K USP Compact in .40 that I absolutely love. Very nice pistol.
-
Bcm gunfighter stock .
Looks like the mechanism could be locked into place, rather than pinning it. Without having one in my hand, I bet that the 'H' shaped piece could be blocked in position, rendering the stock non collapsible. One would require tools to remove the block.

Stag arms in big trouble.
I had always been under the impression that CMT was the part manufacturer, owned by the father, and Stag was the firearm company, owned by the son. Is it possible that CMT could take over the firearm end of the business?
