Did the ATF just legalize machine guns for NFA trusts?
That's not what's being discussed... this is about post NFA machine guns being transferred to trusts.The ATF screwed up and i highly doubt they are going to let this ride.

Cheap Picatinny mountable camera?
they make rail mounts for the go-pro. http://www.mackspw.com/Item--i-CYH1012?src=Y0807GL0N0N10000&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PLA&gclid=CPrt9rfCs74CFYw7OgodWFwApw Not sure what your idea of cheap is though. Go-pro's are cheap for what they can do. I've wanted to buy one for a while now.. but i always get mixed reviews on them..

Ruger Mark Series
I have a MKIII target Talo Edition with aluminum grips... I love it. I used to just waste .22's at the range with it until the price became to high. I love them all, but i find some of them more appealing then others... not a fan of SS or blued... i like the black finish. and i like the bull barrels non-fluted.

Jeep Wrangler Rental
If you thought the ride was bad in a 2008, then don't ever get behind the wheel of anything pre-JK. If you want a lifted car, buy every other suv out there, you can get a Grand Cherokee for the same price. if you want a truck buy a wrangler or something with a Bed. Wranglers ride like any other type of truck with a bed.. They bounce, they have body roll...and have a dynamic suspension for off road articulation... I used to drive a lowered 2dr honda accord.. going from that to a rubicon was night and day... but i still think it handles good for a tuck, but Hyundai Sante Fe will out handle one... but thats apples and oranges.

they changed the door seals around 2012-2013... It's down pouring here, so i'll get back to you guys on how well these new seals are holding up... but i was really pissed when i found water in it.. Your one of many people who had that issue, A co-worker had the their 2011 at jeep about 5 times before they came out with the new seals that finally solved the issue.

I'm not entirely sure why it does it, but you can hear it pop out of the mag when you hit the release button. Now, it hasn't effected performance, it's just a PITA when unloading it.. It only happens if the slide is closing on a loaded mag. It doesn't happen if i load the mag on a closed chamber. The bullet must be pushed forward im assuming just enough that the magazine cant retain it when its dropped. I never looked into it, but it seems to be common.

Have either of you ever smoked? If the answer is No, then it would make sense why you don't understand the concept of vaping. I have tried quitting many times with little success.. The way you refer to quitting like it's such an easy thing to do, leads me to believe you have never witness the struggle of quitting. Most people don't actually want to quit, they just want to be healthier... And yes, keeping your hands busy is a very large factor to smoking. There is an addictive aspect and a psychological aspect. It's why the gum and patch don't work for most people... if nicotine was the only reason people smoked it would be very easy to quit stepping off nicotine... but clearly that's not the case. Vaping allows you to step off cigarettes at your own pace, while maintain specific aspect at a time to help you quit.. start by vaping and lowering the nicotine over time.. once you vaping no nicotine you can slow down the vaping and work on the psychological aspect of busy hands and inhaling smoke. One of my hardest aspect of quitting was in the car to and from work... i used to always have one and it's a mind f*ck to go an entire trip in a car without one... it sounds silly but it's true for most people... and it had little to do with nicotine... just the physical aspect of smoking and having something to do during the boring trip.

They haven't had leaf springs for over 15 years, since the TJ's. Very little has changed, but what has changed are creature comforts. Jeeps used to be pretty bad vehicles to drive on the road and would bounce all over the place. You can still buy them without the power option and barebone, or with all the gimmicks.. You can buy a jeep made for off-road or for you 17 year old daughter. The Rubicons have Dana 44 locking axles and the electronic sway bar and off-road suspension.. the Sahara is your typical grocery getter. They expanded the market dramatically with the JK. IMO it went down hill when they put a MPG readout in the dash...

I paid less than that for my 2014 rubicon with 10 miles and 430n Navy.. it wasn't loaded, but it was "nicely equipped". Has the painted hardtop.. If your going to be in the market for one i seriously advise looking out of state for one.. I found mine down in NC, you'd have no idea how difficult it was to find one in 6-seed with a decent price tag.

Well first, each model is not the same. I just picked up a 2014 unlimited Rubicon and the ride is a bit stiff with the off-road options... the sport has a little better ride, and the Sahara has an on-road suspension for riding comfort. Any unlimited will ride ride better then the 2-door. The JK's unlimited ride great... i went from a 2 door Honda to this beast and i'm loving it. They also have a Much MUCH better motor in them since 2012. NOW, they are still not like any other SUV, they are still a jeep and will have jeep problems... My doors leak when it downpours, or at least it did 2 weeks ago when we got some really nasty rain... but the past couple days have managed to keep the rain out. Not sure if that's a problem with the new seals needing to break in a little. The problem is... if you like jeeps, you typically find the latter boring. But on the plus side... the vehicle is basically idiot proof in terms of other drivers.. i was sick of door dings and bumper rash, wont ever be dealing with that again.

Sig P238
There is no mention of it in the manual.. I have noticed something different with the way it feeds and i havent had this happen with other pistols.. If you remove a loaded magazine, the next bullet to feed is actually not in the magazine and falls out the magwell.
-
Sig P238
I love my P938.... i would seriously consider it over the .380 There were some reports of feeding failures... I havent had an issues with mine, but it's newer.

Learning to reload/How did you learn?
I learned primarily from youtube... you really can learn just about anything on there... some books and advice from experience reloaders really pulled it all together. Why do i do it? well when i got into it supplies were pleantyful and cheaper the long term cost savings... now... well because i enjoy it. Adds a whole new perspective and angle to shooting you don't get from factory rounds.

Smart Gun law kicks in now?
These are 2 completely different situations... We already have the ruling from Heller, and the state law is in direct violation of it, as it stands. A comparable example would be, say Drake was accepted and won... and NJ chose to keep the laws the same.... would the courts at that point really say... yeah we made this ruling and dont care if the state follow it in the name of public safety?

another reloading question, reaming primer pocket and chamfering neck
Be careful about what terms you use. Trimming the cases is not that same as chamfering, and deburring trimmed cases. If your chamfering a case your putting an angle on the mouth. Like stated rimless pistol rounds should not be chamfered. But trimmed cases should be deburred if needed

NJ legal Barrett Rec7
I'm not overly impressed with High end AR's or piston AR's. If i had the money to blow that's a completely different story. These companies are dumping a lot of money into these piston systems that offer little advantage over DI for the average user. There are very good dependable rifles that are cheaper, although i would admit that $2700 isnt all that much more compared to an LWRC or something similar... so if your in that market its a good option. This is one of those companies you want to support, you want to give them your money.... its just whether or not you can justify the price tag. Now... an MRAD... DROOOOOOL. been lusting over one since they developed it.

Wouldn't the Heller decision smack this down right out of the gate? This law was written well before the ruling.

It's a sweet little pistol, and you can get the rubber version with 7rd mag for a better grip... or stick with the smaller grips and 6rd mag for concealment.. it's light too..IWB and you don't even know it's there.
