PNC Bank Outta Their Minds! Let's give-up more Constitutional Rights
A bill is a bill is a bill is a bill.... Doesn't matter what it is. If you don't pay your cc but u do pay your mortgage, your credit rating still goes down. Any time you have a bill that doesnt get paid on time your credit takes a dump... Story: My father with A++++++++ credit, never missed a bill in his life.... had my dim wit brother use one of the family emergency cards with out telling him, he didnt realize there was a balance, and missed payment by one day, his rating went down a significant amount and he was PIIISSSED. All it takes is one missed bill to drop your rating, even if you've never missed a bill in 20 years and you payed it one day late.... Credit bureou's are very quick to drop your rating, and are very slow bringing it up.

tips on cleaning scratches from watches?
just some food for thought, if the scratch is deep, it may not be worth fixing... i scratched the face of mine pretty bad, on a smooth lab table none the less. That table did some serious damage, it looked like i brushed up against a brick wall. I tried buffing it out, but it was just too deep... you can find replacement crystal for pretty cheep if your willing to take it apart. That's what i did, actually i bought the crystal and had a friends bro who collects and refurbishes watches do it for me. Cost me something like 15 bucks.

Ed Brown Is Rude At Shot Show 2012
I agree, if you don't like it don't buy one. I'm in the market for a 1911, and with so many good choices out there you start to look at how a company handles it's business and customers, or potential customers. After seeing how rude this guy really seems to be, with so many accounts of his rude behavior it is hard for me to even consider an ed brown anymore. I can buy another 1911 that is just as good from someone who appreciates my business, and i will do so. I would not demand an apology that is just ridiculous, take your bruised ego, and spend your money else where. Personally, i think his pistols are a bit over priced to begin with. To say he wont loose money is not true, i was pretty set on buying an ed brown and no longer want to give my money to someone who doesn't appreciate my business. He may continue to sell out year after year, but that doesn't mean he isn't loosing business. Also in regards to your previous post: Does Ed brown really have distributors? I thought he sold directly to his customers for the most part? as in you place an order with him and he makes you what you want. I have never seen a legit production ed brown 1911 that is distributed to the masses.people are claiming the booth was rather empty and whats the point in showcasing merchandise that distributes cannot buy. He shouldn't be at shotshow by those standards alone unless im leaving out some details...

Newbie brass handling
It's a good thing i separated it then because i have wcc 11 stamped brass, i looked it up a while ago and i found the same response about it being difficult to prime. I'll just leave it next time i stumble across it. The rest is federal AE brass. Edit: actually now that i looked i have mixed federal and blazer, i so i guess i just separated the problematic brass.

True, they DO make money on every transfer AND some places charge you more for using a CC, or offer cash discounts.

PNC Bank Outta Their Minds! Let's give-up more Constitutional Rights
That's not credit, being able to get a credit card means nothing... having good credit means you get low interest rates, and having a lot of money doesn't give you good credit, you could have 20million in the bank and not pay one bill, your credit score would be ****, but you are still rich, you would still pay a **** load in interest if you ever financed anything. I was denied a card, talked to my bank rep. and she got them to give it to me.... i had very little money in the bank. The fact is, companies only offer their services to people they think will make them money, like college students and irresponsible people who will make them money paying interest. I was denied because i have always had money in the bank, and to them i looked responsible, even if my account didn't have thousands in it. When i was in school and broke, i received offers in the mail every week, when i got a good paying job guess what? they stopped coming.. RICH PEOPLE do NOT make CC companies money, poor/irresponsible people do.

Anyone know any good Scholarships?
Yeah u can get some good money from the government for continuing education. I tried last year, but my father claimed me, but had he not, i would have received an extra $2500 on my tax returns to go towards tuition, you also get some stipends for having a low income when u file non-dependant . I would talk it over with who ever is going to claim you and decided whether or not the tax break they get for claiming you is really worth it. If you haven't already, i would contact rowan, and more specifically the department your enrolled in. I know where i went to school, the Bio department received many scholarships each year, and barely anyone applied for them because there was a small amount of work that had to go into applying. These were scholarships granted to the school for students not by the school.

Has anyone silver soldered on a muzzle break before?
Wouldn't it have to be 16" after assembly?
-
Has anyone silver soldered on a muzzle break before?
NO. Be discrete and nothing will come of it. You are not breaking any laws unless someone see's that your have all the necessary parts and tools to assemble the gun. Just buying a threaded barrel is perfectly legal.

Newbie brass handling
I'm waiting for my fat tax return to show up and im going to be purchasing a whole array of reloading equipment(single stage and progressive). I figured i would just get everything at once, but in the mean time i have been collecting brass and i DO separate by head stamp. The only reason i do this is because mostly the stuff i collect is my spent federal brass, but every here and there i pick up what ever i find.... and i have read that some primer pockets are harder/easier to swap primers. As a new reloader i would like to get some consistency while reloading, and i just dont want any issues if the primer doesn't seat correctly because i load 40 easy ones and on the 41th i get one of the difficult primer pockets and it doesn't seat correctly. Since i havent actually reloaded yet, i will see whether or not there is a difference, and from there i can determine if its worth separating.

Funny u should mention that, i have a td savings account from years ago with like a dollar in it, just so i can use the penny acrade!! haha All my "real" accounts are with chase, if i keep a certain balance in my savings, my checking account is free. i would go with where ever you have your checking account and do regular business. I do all my checking online now, and my cc is actually listed in my account with my checking and saving and i can keep track and pay everything from one account. I don't deal with anything paper related and i haven't been to a bank teller in over a year.

Pistol Permit Question - Typo?
My PP's had the wrong age on it, one year less. When i picked them up me and the officer went over them to make sure everything was correct, and when i brought it up that i was actually a year older, he looked at it, said well your birthday is right so wtv, i used 2 of them and nothing came of it. When i went in to extend one of the permits, they told me i never signed the initial application and i just signed it right there.

Any card, in particular one that would offer you rewards you can actually use. Go to your bank, and speak with them. If you are responsible any card will work, but i would stick with a VISA, as it accepted just about everywhere. People will try and find a low rate on cc, but if you pay your balance off in full it doesn't matter what the rate is, cause your never charged. The only time it's important to really find a good card is if you dont plan on paying off the balance, because some of them will rape you, but the reality is they will probably all have a high interest rate eitherway.

Is the pistol permit process documented?
No, you must file in your town if they can process the permits. I would NOT call the NJSP at day 31, they will do nothing for you. They usually clear up things like extra documents that PD's require and have them discarded, or if your say 3 months from the initial application they may say something. When it comes to waiting for your permits, the best action is to speak directly with the person processing your permits, then the cheif, then the mayor, and then the NJ2AS. Walking into the pd and asking the first person you see is not the way to handle it, they usual know little about what is going on. I dont speak to anyone at my pd other then the officer processing the permits, otherwise its just a waste of my time. When did you get fingerprinted?

What? he brought up a very valid point... CC are just the same as cash, and in most cases 100% better then a debit card IF you use it responsibly. You can use it to build credit at which point you accumulate a high credit score and save even more money if the need ever arises to obtain a loan or finance.. The fact is.. with out credit is just the same as having a horrible credit score, you will never get a good rate on a mortgage or a car if at all... and people don't drop their life savings on these things and pay in "cash" even if they have it readily availible.

Are we all under suspicion of being terrorists?
You'd have to be the dumbest terrorist on earth to that. And i DO agree with some of what they have listed... but the other good half of these fliers is pure government paranoia of it's citizens.
-
Are we all under suspicion of being terrorists?
To be fair it's the purchase of out of season ammo and firearms... but regardless, to claim there is a "purchasing" season is just as ridiculous of a notion.

Military surplus flyer Make bulk purchases of items to include: Weatherproofed ammunition or match containers Meals Ready to Eat Night Vision Devices; night flashlights; gas masks High capacity magazines Bi-pods or tri-pods for rifles

Are we all under suspicion of being terrorists?
Please read all the other fliers, in particular the "home improvement" one. Shoplifting or purchasing Large quantity of ammunition or model aircraft fuel. Firearms and ammunition out of season. Large quantity of watches, electronic timers, or kitchen timers. A combination of unusual items (e.g., sponges, candles, matches, bolt cutters). Unusual quantity of compressed fuels (e.g., propane). Night-vision equipment and camouflage apparel. Unusually large quantity of fertilizer type 34-0-0 or 32-2-0. Pipe (particularly in short lengths), end caps, and pipe nipples in the same transaction, particularly when vague about their use. this is but only one of the 25 fliers... read them all. I am astonished at this, holy crap! The internet cafe flyier touched on many things not associated with internet cafes. If you try and shield your IP, by means of a proxy server, you are under suspicion. Apparently the FBI believe you are not entitled to any type of privacy. and trying to increase your privacy by any means via the internet makes you a person of interest. Using proxy servers is a very good idea if you are active online from your home location, i can be difficult to trace, and they are located in countries the US cannot legally acquire information from. Many tin foil hat people use them because they fear their opinion will be looked at as terroristic, as clearly indicated in these fliers they are correct. If you use cash for large transactions you are under suspicion. Please read all of these, you will be quite shocked.
