I'm hesitant saying this, but the ATF in this case isn't the problem. It is the NJSP should they go on a witch hunt a C&R will be used against you. And of course the Media will make it seem like you have a fully functional Sherman tank and land mines in your garage that you purchased with the C&R.

The ATF agent that visited me was very nice and professional and gave me a ton of books. He also warned me that if I was looking for discounts on ammo, reloading supplies, etc., it would be in my best interest to incorporate and use my business angle versus the small discounts that C&R guys get. He must've told me a number of times that there wasn't any benefit to it in NJ. FWIW - Nappen's book on page 41 discusses it. I had to re-read it to make sure. The header in "Loopholes and Pitfalls" "WARNING: Do NOT have a Collector of Curios and Relics Federal Firearms License". In bold. YMMV

Nice clip. On the full bottle thing...I got whacked about 4 times in the back of the head while being held in Newark before going down for a few while my faced was used for a soccer ball. Managed to get back up though. They were made because I broke their friends jaw when he attacked my buddy....who wound up in ICU for a few days. Ahh, the value of a Newark education.

Be VERY careful having a C&R. I had one for a month and quickly requested to cancel it when I became more informed. In the PRNJ, the negatives out weigh the positives. FWIW, the C&R puts up on the NJSP's radar screen as a much brighter and bigger 'blip' then the rest of us. Just make sure you will truly need it and are willing to have unannounced house guests for inspections. Make sure you post your required signs (yes, in your own home) and keep your records up to date. Might want to check out Nappen's Book before you decide to keep your C&R... just say'in.

The only reason he got a C is because he avoids the issues. The NRA is probably giving him a lot of leeway here.

The only thing left of this guy's election run is the final swirl in the bowl. I can't vote for this guy, or the other socialist. Steve Lonegan, where are you?

6 Sigma seems to be becoming a thing of the past, but it still comes up as a desirable thing. Problem is, when I was consulting on Business Continuity, many times when it came to Supply Chain Vulnerabilities, we butted heads with the lean and mean is better. If your JIT supply chain depends on India and they have a massive power outage, (or port labor strike) what happens to your company for example? I want to explore what might be available for some VA training. In this economy, I need every advantage.

Thinking about getting a certification in Sigma 6. I'd like to hear some feedback about whether it is worth the time and energy. Also, if there are any recommendations of schools to consider and equally important, ones to avoid. I'd be looking to do this online if possible. I see a ton of schools out there, but today it is hard to determine what is crap and what is good. And just because it has a university logo, it doesn't mean they are providing any better instruction than a professional development school. Way back in the 90's, I was very involved with getting the company I worked for up to ISO standards, with a heavy focus on JIT inventory and QC. That was quite a learning experience and difficult task for sure. Thanks in advance.

No, not at all. A solid BT Punch would do it.

Just figured I'd put this out there in case anyone else might be in the audience. My son is taking his first hunter safety course for shotgun and I figure I might as well take my Muzzleloader course. I found my pink tags from when I took my archery and shotgun, way back in 1978. Ouch....getting old sucks.

If you are working security in NYC and your company wants you to get a CCW permit and you live out of state, think about this. You have to borrow a handgun to train and qualify with, and the training / range can't be in the 5 boros. Otherwise you are breaking the law. The company I used to work for had to conduct their training in Yonkers and had some special 'deals' in place to make things less problematic. We really need to simplify our laws. Yea, I know, preaching to the choir.

I saw this and thought, no wonder Sig has such a back log on the 716's if they keep doing this. I bet if this guy got something he wanted by mistake, say like flowers or a Tiffany Lamp, he would've kept quite. His(?) girlish scream probably alerted the neighbors that something was wrong. Nail polish, orange shoes and wearing frigging Capri pants. I'm going to take a long shot and guess BHO supporter.

The mag weights are a wash. If anything the 308 has the advantage. You need at least a 223 double tap to come close to a single 308 round. Even with body armor, a 308 center of mass is going to break ribs and take you out of the fight for awhile. As far as the other accessories and weight. Well if you are humping it, I like to travel light so a 1x4 or 2x7 optic would be it. Get a good NM Strap and settle into a good prone position and you don't need a bipod. Stick that Surefire on your belt and keep it lean. Conducting some roof top diplomacy?... Then you can bust out the big glass along with a bi-pod, and pack a sammich or two. I'm jealous for sure.

We have a winning answer to all the Chicken-Littles. My "2012 Mayan Calendar" response moving forward; "Look phuck-tard, the Mayan's world ended a long time ago. Now how about focusing on the American Civilization's survival and get rid of this administration in November." Thanks Ron!

Good luck and speedy recovery. From all my experience in project management and real estate management ladders and electricity are huge worker comp issues. The shock is one thing, but the fall off the ladder usually creates the majority of the medical injuries. I got zapped off a ladder and fell onto an office 'module' inside a warehouse which broke my fall. Falling 5' onto a tin roof versus 16' onto a concrete floor makes a big difference. After take-out delivery in the ghetto and mental health-care workers, electricians are right up there with occupational hazards.

Being Semper Paratus takes care of everything.

The voices in my head. And some Volbeat when I was just mowing the lawn.

Very nice. I know when I reload for my Garands, the operating rod really performs a lot better when I use the right pressure curve in powder types (4895 / Varget) and loads. Just scaling back a few grains, really makes a difference in accuracy and wear and tear. Then again these are 60+ year old rifles.

Got that right!!!

Read the Hunger Games....12 Districts all supporting the Capital. My kids all read it and insisted that I did. Good book for teens to think about the Government getting too powerful and controlling.

I used to be the doorman there...and a regular. After all, it was less then a mile from where I grew up. Who was your band?

I might have to dig out those High School year book pictures for the masses to enjoy.

Welcome from a little west of you.

Welcome.
