What range do you set your targets up at?
Shooting handguns at about 10-12 yards. Feel like I can stretch out to maybe 20 yards and still hit the paper. I'm not ready for 25 yards with a handgun yet. Red dot .22 rifle at 50 yards but I'm ready to go longer.

Ed Brown Is Rude At Shot Show 2012
There is a difference between saying "no" and being rude. Ed Brown could have just said, "I don't want to be in a video. Please turn the cameras off. Which guns of mine did you buy? How do you like them?" Interesting that people on here seem to idolize Brown even more because of his lack of interpersonal skills.

Ed Brown Is Rude At Shot Show 2012
Les Baer did a nice interview with the fanboy guy. When you spend big, big bucks on a handgun, you're not just buying a pretty gun that goes bang when you pull the trigger. You are buying a certain brand mystique. Just like my wife wanting to buy a Louie Vitton handbag. Other gun/purses do the same thing and look just as nice but they don't have the brand status; they don't rise to works of art. That artistic value is diluted if the guy's name on the merchandise is a jerk. Whereas, being able to shake hands and chat with an artist/craftsman like Les Baer increases my desirability for his work. And ShotShow is not open to the general public, it's supposed to only allow in those in the gun industry. If you can't be nice to them then why go to the show?

Can someone explain this to me
It's a bit more complicated than that. Pakistan is a shakey ally in a part of the world where we have many enemies and few allies. We could say "Don't shoot at US troops and they won't kill you " and they could say, "Get your troops off our border. And stay out of our air space."

PNC Bank Outta Their Minds! Let's give-up more Constitutional Rights
Those places that have different prices for cash vs credit card seem limited to select gas stations and gun stores. I try to not shop at those businesses.

Mall Ninja Academy (No, seriously)
It's only a matter of time until tactical crossfit with live fire starts up. Biathlon to the next level.

PNC Bank Outta Their Minds! Let's give-up more Constitutional Rights
I don't see the big deal about waiving right to jury trial for my credit cards. I'm sure my credit cards have the same verbiage and I sleep fine at night.

M&P 15 SPORT FRONT A2 SIGHT TOWER
Getting the old block off is not trivial. The A2 block is held in with pins. The low profile are held with set screws. I'm pretty sure you have to free float or else what is the handgruard going to lock into on the muzzle end?

Biggest (Firearm related) Pet-Peeve?
I did that at ShoreShot when the RO walked past me in the store. Based on the way he thanked me, I assume not everyone does that. Maybe something happened in a previous life of mine but it freaks me out to point a gun at someone even though I know it's not loaded. I accidently flagged a kid at the range with an unloaded gun with the slide locked back and I still feel really bad about that.

Legality of carry knives in NJ
That is prohibition on the sale of the knife and the seller is one breaking the law. Nothing about the minor carrying the knife has broken the law.

Legal to engrave your own lower?
Post some pictures. People paint their rifles all the time. I wouldn't call it a mod if it's only for appearances and has no functional changes and think it would be an ATF rule not a NJ concern. But, like Mike, it's only my opinion.

Are we all under suspicion of being terrorists?
Typical government efficiency. Reminds me of the idotic posters about what to do in case of nuclear attack. On the other hand, if someone comes in to a store and buys 20 pounds of nails, 20 2-ft length of black pipe, end caps, fertizliizer and whatever else is listed in the Anarchist's Cookbook, then someone should alert the authorities.

Are we all under suspicion of being terrorists?
The flyer is targeted to internet cafes. Places that people might go to in order to not use their home computer to access certain internet sites. If you're at home, *they* already know all about you.

Finally got to the range
That no wait, shoot as long and often as you want isn't always a good thing.

Retired LEOs Targeted
The original topic is not really about retired LEO. It is about the federal gov't telling NJ who can carry in NJ. Sound like a recent recipricity law?? That is what this is all about. 2A says the feds can't make laws against gun ownership. But, can the feds make laws that allow gun "privlidges" above the states wishes?

Shore shot fail. Brick armory fail (no ones fault)
Some stores say NJ law prohibits showing guns to people without an FID. I don't shop at those stores.
-
Finally got to the range
Compared to the cost of ammo you shoot per hour, not so much.
-
Shore shot fail. Brick armory fail (no ones fault)
Most gun shops will let you see guns at the store. But, not all. Call first.

Finally got to the range
$60 per year plus $4 per hour per person.

Shore shot fail. Brick armory fail (no ones fault)
I went to my local range, Ready AIm Fire in Bristol, PA. Very long wait. I left. Guess lots of folks decided to go shooting today.

online ammo purchase w/o FID
I don't understand the attitude. Lots of internet ammo sellers want an FID from NJ residents. Some do. Some don't. There must be more to it than your simple clarification.

Not sure if it's legit, but it does make you think
He figured it out. LOL.
