Opinions on Outdoor sports USA
So, I get these emails a couple times a week from Outdoor Sports USA for rifle kits. Don't know how I got on their list. Some of their deals seem good, like $250-300 for a LPK and upper kit with bolt, but I do not want to buy junk. I have an Anderson lower gathering dust in the basement. https://outdoorsportsusa.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=120&product_id=858 Anyone have any experience with them? If so, do they ship to NJ? I know the stock will need to be pinned.

Collapsible Batons???
In my car, I carry a field hockey stick that I picked up for $2 at a thrift shop. Seems like it would make a good beatum stick.

Range 14 questions
They told me that the pistol range will allow .22 rifles. I don't know about other rimfire calibers. They said no to pistol caliber rifles.

9mm vs .40?
P320 is only barrel & magazine swap to change between 9/.40/.357 Sig.

9mm vs .40?
I have not shot the 320 in .40. I bought a Glock 22 to try both the .40 and Glock platform out. I like the round well enough, but not a Glock fan. In hindsight, I should have purchased the full sized P320 in .40 instead.

9mm vs .40?
Sig p320 comes in 2 flavors: 9/.40/.357 Sig and .45. I bought into the system early when Sig was still saying that the gun could go 9/.40/357/.45. They changed their story later on. 9/.40/.357 fire control group cannot work with .45. .45 fire control group only works for .45. Still, it is the gun that I shoot the best with and I highly recommend it.

Help me pick out a "farewell" pistol before I leave NJ....
I am going to go in a different direction here... Get 3 permits. Have your FFL order 3 of the crappiest bb gun pistols on the planet. Apply for OGAM exemption. Use all 3 permits to take possession of crap. A fine way to say FU to NJ, and waste time and resources at the NJSP.

Kel Tec Sub 2000
I had the .40 and found it to be unpleasant to shoot. If I were looking for one now, I would hold out for a 9.

IUD? any one or their wives have experience?
My wife had an IUD for about 7 years. Worked as promised with no side effects. When it was time to pull it, I got snipped. Easy as 123 with no regrets.

Drones, what do you know about them?
A single shotgun blast is hard to triangulate. Don't miss.

Drones, what do you know about them?
The FAA is now involved with drones over a certain weight. And if you are planning on using it commercially, I think the FAA requires you to get a license.

BUY 10 YEAR OLD USED CAR?
Life is short, drive what you want. It's not like you are trying to justify a $50,000 car. Buying an 10-year-old car seems like a terribly rational thing to do. You could also keep the car you have as a backup car. I have a 1992 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon as an extra car. We use it as a beach car/towing rig/pickup. The car is remarkably reliable. Having an extra car around has come in mighty handy over the years and is well worth the minimal cost of insurance and registration. I will never be without an extra car again. EDIT..... Option 3. Buy better GP. Cut the roof off the old car for a one of a kind summer fun car.

House beside Superfund???
You could not pay me to move into a house next to a dirty site. Certain chemical pollution can last forever unless remediated. With Trump's plans to defund the EPA, hence defunding cleanups of superfund sites, I would urge your kin to run away fast.

Clinton WMA Pistol Shooting?
Can you? Yes. Are you allowed to? No Do I see 9mm, 45ACP etc brass on the ground at Stafford Forge? Yes. I also see 556, 308 and 762x54r. If you are caught by Fish and Game, I think they can take away your hunting license.

Glock 43?
Garden State Shooting Center in Lakewood has a 43 (and a 42) on the rental board. If you go alone, be sure to bring a gun with you. GSSC will not rent to you solo unless you bring your own gun with you.

Shooting a .380 round from a 9mm?
I have seen people shoot 9mm out of a .40 and .40 out of a .45 by accident. The round fires, but the shell is usually not extracted. I would venture that .380 out of a 9 would do the same.

What Are You Reading?
Ted Koppel's "Lights Out" turned me onto William R. Forstchen's books about the devastation of the US by an EMP attack. I just re-read "One Second After' and "One Year After" in prep for part 3 of the series " The Final Day", coming out any day now.

Anyone switch from oil to natural gas?
We made the switch last year. Went with new hot water heater, too. Last year NJ had some pretty serious rebates on whole house upgrades with insulation. Our insulation upgrades were extensive and almost free after the rebates. The state also had some incentives for the conversion itself, but I cannot remember the details. NJNG offered us 10 year 0% loan for the remaining amount. They charged us a small amount to bring the line and a meter to the house. Our monthly oil budget payment was atrocious, even spread out over 11 months. Our monthly payment on the gas loan is 1/3 the cost of what our oil was. Last month was pretty mild, but we only used $50 in gas. My wife likes a warm house. Hurry up and see if there are any rebates about to expire Dec. 31. You may have just enough time to lock in a contract to qualify. I dragged my feet for years because our oil equipment was rock solid. As soon as it started acting up, we switched. Smartest thing I ever did.
