I'm interested in a few, but I'd sure like to pick something up cheap. Rotary magazine 77/17 interests me, although I haven't seen one in person. I also wonder why the capacity is 9 when they've made the 10/22 with a 10rd capacity forever, albiet semi-auto.

Oh boy....this CNBC thing isn't looking good for Remington.

I know I've heard of people doing it, and I have an airgun scope on a 10/22. It seems like my rimfires have less recoil than my spring powered pellet gun, and other pellet guns I've used in the past. So really, is it just the recoil and possible loss of zero, or are there other considerations that I'm ignorant of....

I was wondering what kind of feedback I would get about putting an airgun scope on rimfire. Anyone have practical experience or educated opinion on the subject? I thought about putting this in the optics section, but it's probably only a possiblity in the rimfire arena.

So on the plus side... 1) He came all the way up here and cares about his kid(s). 2) He was on a Honda, probably not a gang member. 3) Complied with the LEO asking for permission to search. On the minus side... 1) Stupid for being involved with this woman. 2) Stupid for bringing the gun with him. 3) Stupid for complying with LEO asking for permission to search without lawyer consult. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up serving (more) jail time if he doesn't get good legal help. Not only will he not get any custody that isn't supervised. She'll be getting everything she wants in court. He has stupidly come face to face with not one, but two of the worst court related problems in the country.

I wonder if the same weather or conditions that brought out millions of stinkbugs is giving the black widows good living conditions.

I was in Brick, never been to the Paramus store (although I will now that I know there is one).

ouch, I hate when that happens

I got the price this afternoon and a kid was putting sale prices on various rifles. ....Remington Thunderbolt, but in bricks not dumped in a big box. 50rnd boxes in a bigger box. They had .223 on sale too and some other rifle and shotgun cartridges. I don't know how good a deal those where though.

Wow, I went to California a few years ago and they were everywhere. I'd never seen one in NJ before.

You could make a youtube video too....please don't post the link though

Happy Birthday!

All good choices for open carry in NJ.

The sign was funny, the tea gun strange. http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2010/09/its_tea_time_porcelain_pistol.html?ref=nf

To be a little more clear, I do care, and I do think it's rediculous that that guy couldn't say "home defense". He should have been able to say "I'm going to shoot lots of pieces of paper and be as prepared as possible to put holes in an intruder". I also think the laws need to be changed and standardized and complied with by everyone involved. I was only pointing out that being non-standard with your average LEO is only going to hurt you. I don't think anyone wants to stand on the side of the road for 40min while their car is turned upside down for no reason. I'm more than happy to russle some feathers if there's a point to it.

In any event... The point of fact is that your average cop doesn't want to stand around debating law enforcement theory, practice, or various social philosophy. They ask the questions they are trained to ask and expect answers. When they get non-standard answers you're seen as a non-standard individual. In the majority of situations where an officer must keep himself or others safe this line of thinking is helpful. If you keep in mind that they are programmed to respond a specific way to confrontation for a good reason it's easier to swallow answering with a pleasant tone and with helpful information. ie: Q. "Do you have any drugs or weapons in the vehicle." A1. "No sir" or "Yes sir in the trunk and I have an FID" A2. "Why are you asking me?" <-- you're not going to get a good reaction. Believe me when I say that I've had problems with individual officers, BUT, looking back I can see how most of these situations could have been avoided. If I walked into my local PD and saw that same sign I would know it's incorrect, but I honestly wouldn't expect to get anywhere argueing that point locally because someone ordered someone to put that sign there. As for answering the question of how I intend to use a weapon, I thought target practice would be good enough (and has been). I may just opt for "legal purposes" in the future because I try to avoid situations where it's unlikely I'll come out ahead.

Okay then....I live in Ocean County, I didn't realize how it could be up there.

I guess I just don't buy into conspiracy theory. I do think your answer is much better than refusing to answer.

I don't see the point in not answering the question. He has a log book similar to a receipt book that has a space to be filled. He wasn't asking to give you a hard time, and simply saying "target shooting" isn't infringing on your rights. As for the sign, I'd guess it's intentional. If the sign bothers you call the state police. Cops are used to having their questions answered, so why bother? When he pulls you over for speeding do you think he's going to remember your attitude or cut you a break? I have been let off on minor traffic offences when I give a reasonable answer for what I did wrong...expecially in my own town. Cutting off your nose to spite your face doesn't make sense.

Where he should probably consider everyone carrying to be a threat, until they inform him, because criminals with weapons would only inform him by pulling it out.

After several instances of being detained while my car was searched in my early twenties, I prepare myself for motor vehicle stops much better. All my documents together neatly and retrieved only after the officer gets to the car and sees my hands on the top of the steering wheel. Not that that saved me from getting my car searched, but I didn't want to add variables to the situation. I think I would be pretty upset if I waited like that, and informed them I had a weapon, only to get handcuffed. I don't doubt that that guy is a policeman, but I would doubt he's a very good one if I were judging by his post. Education is definitely key, and having information from real life examples is good. Personally, I look at situations a bit differently than I did in my younger years and go out of my way to be cooperative and non-confrontational with LEO...even when they may be wrong in my mind. If the training is standardized, then the responces are standardized, hopefully.

I saw they had a Rossi 22-250 single shot on clearance for $150 with a scope. After I talked myself out of it, sorta, another guy came in. It turned out they had a few in the back with a scope and a case. His had a small blem on the stock and they took 15% extra off for that too. Oh, and it feels like it's built like a brick sh*t house.

If you scratch that surface plate it's comin' out of your check mr. Sorry, had a boss that said that a million times.
