Garand 30-06 vs .308
The Schuster plug is a great addition. Once you get it dialed in, even using surplus ammo, everything seems to be more fluid and less harsh on your op-rod. Worse case situation you open it all the way up and use your M1 like a bolt action.

Any reason NOT to pick up a rack grade M1 from CMP?
Miss the old days getting it directly to my door step. One time I had one delivered to work.

Tactical case for AR with handle mounted optics?
20" is going to be rough because of the overall length of the bag. A standard back-pack should be suffice. I have a 5.11 carry on sized bag that fits a carbine length set up. It also has a shoulder strap and hidden back pack type straps. Check out Maxpedition gear, they have some pretty cool stuff that might fit your needs. But you are looking at the $150 price range.

I stand corrected in my first post. My best shooting / armory etched rebuild was a FG, cleaning my reloading bench I found the little tag that was on it. My woodless Dane was the Rack Grade. Which after dropping into a crappy RamLine Stock still shoots pretty good. Fulton Armory has a laminate stock in woodland colors unfinished that I plan to buy as soon as my toy-fund will allow.

Shooting in Woodland Park, 3 dead
My wife's grandfather was the Chief of Police for East Paterson. He was against the name change because they were going to spend money on signs and stationery ,and a name change wasn't going to make Elmwood Park any better then East Paterson. I loved that man. Jumped on D-Day with the 507th / 82nd...wounded, captured, escaped 3 times. Kept in solitary for the most part afterwards. Then the Russian's liberated him...and his watch which the Germans let him keep.

Anyone stock powder in North NJ any more? H4895 sought
Ramsey used to, but so rarely did they get it in I stopped going there. Any suggestions on who might still stock some H4895 would be appreciated. I hate buying only 8 lbs and paying the $25 hazmat fee and don't have the funds for my usual 16-24lbs order.

Northern Jersey Powder Valley Group Buy?
Anyone looking to do round 2? I'm looking for 8lbs of H4895. Got a bunch of M1 ammo to reload.

Garand Guy is still around? I thought he retired or moved. I'd like to send him a project after the holidays clear.

Virginia's online classes make it easy for out-of-state gun owners to get permits
SC still has Jim Crow laws. You need to be a land owner in SC before you can carry.

Nov 9-11 Dignitary Protection Class
Trust me, working with some middle eastern royalty, I'd thought about doing worse things.

I did my Florida permit a long time ago. Mine is signed by Charles Bronson...kid you not.

Nov 9-11 Dignitary Protection Class
Just a word of caution to anyone getting involved with EP work. There are very, very few opportunities out there right now. The training from a good school is very applicable in everyday life and certainly aids anyone who looking to know more about the profession. But, work is scarce and the industry is a very close knit one.

You can always file a small claims case in court. However, you would need 'proof' that they did it. Call the local BBB.

If you COULD ccw...?
Pizza Bob shared a pic of his Sig RCS...and it is frigging sweet. I wound up getting the Sig P220 SAS Compact. My P229 / 40 is just to heavy for IWB. And if I'm in summer clothes, my LCP apex carry IWB. Around the house / yard / visiting my buddy in PA, P220 Compact @ 6 o'clock Old Faithful IWB. Acts as a lumbar support...kid you not. 357 out of 2.25" barrel is a handful. Wheelguns work no question about it.

Park nearby each morning with a sign warning people NOT to do business there while you enjoy a coffee and read the newspaper. He can't do much if you are parked in a public place. 30 minutes here and there will make an impact. Or on Saturday morning when they are real busy. Hand out coupons for a competitor.

Is Sportsman's Guide Stalking You Too?
Not just SG. I've found that if I searching for something it winds up coming up. I've gotten a couple questions from the wife like, are you looking for a new backpack...tent...zombie tracker...etc. We have a common PC for the family so the parents can monitor what goes on. So on a side note, if Santa is browsing for stuff, you don't want the kids seeing the American Girl doll ad popping up every time she is playing her games.

And in the Deja Vu Category
Forgetting a folder or a nail file is one thing. A firearm is something else. Not that the TSA sees a difference sadly. Regardless, as soon as I hit a Security Check point, I always have a Oh $h!t moment and quickly do a mental inventory. Very often, I am walking back to my car or getting an escort thru the check point. For work, I generally keep a Leatherman, Pepper Spray, a small tactical tomahawk as well as a folder. So I understand forgetting, up until the point of stepping thru the security check point. On the other side of the situation, in a free state, the security guard could give you an option. Return it to your car, or check it at the counter. "We have brand X firearm case available for $25 check your weapon." Certainly cheaper then bail and retaining counsel.

Saltwater & Shotguns - Mossberg Mariner / Rem 870 Marine
No need. I've spoken to my bio-father and have a real solid relationship with my birth-mom...better then the relationship with the person that raised me. I'm a story for the Hallmark Channel...but with a Tim Burton / George Carlin / Richard Pryor / Mel Brooks flair.

Saltwater & Shotguns - Mossberg Mariner / Rem 870 Marine
Dead serious. I found out I was adopted at 40. My poor kids are German and Irish, and have a Polish last name. I'm 75% Black Irish (dark hair / eyes) and 25% Kraut...O'Shitz if you will. The wife is 100% German. Keep in mind, all the most notorious serial killers and killers in general were adopted males of European descent. <insert evil laugh>.
