Grounded cargo ship breaks apart off New Zeland coast ..
Who said the gulf has recovered? You need to be very careful about what you read in regards to the clean up effort in the gulf. One article claims that the rating level is almost back up to pre-spill levels. While other articles say the gulf floor is a mess. In terms of, "on the surface" the gulf seems to be improving significantly, however, many scientist doing research on the gulf floor have not been impressed in terms of improvement. It will in fact take years for the area to recover, if some areas recover at all. These claims that the gulf is back to normal is complete crap, while these findings were being published last april tons of dolphins were still washing up along the shoreline dead. It is with out a doubt the dumbest thing to think that ecosystem which took such a heavy hit, miraculously are back to normal one year later. Many species populations took a sever hit, and they are no where near what they used to be. Once i see some one publish findings that population levels are back to normal i will take the argument the gulf is back to normal... But some government hired scientist, which claim its back to normal just by looking at the surface ecosystems is a far cry from anything legit. Just this past decemeber there still putting together multi-billion dollar recovery plans. Why spend billions on something that is already back to normal? The gulf will recover, but it will take much longer then a few years for all the ecosystmes to get back to pre-spill levels. And none of this takes into consideration the economy which still hasnt recovered in the gulf.

New ar-15/m4 help!
I think he's looking for a shop so he can get a feel for what he wants/needs. I have an RRA operator 2, they put the fixed operator stock on it and pinned the brake at no extra charge and gavee me 2 10rd mags + the hard case. total cost was 1k w/ the free eotech co-witness rear site. Rifle is def. on the heavy side, due to the heavy barrel and handguard. Its not intolerable, but noticable. I would highly recomend it if they are willing to swap on a gov. profile barrel, i would have asked them but i didnt figure it out until i got it, otherwise i would just piece together a BCM. I have since purchased a Light weight barrel from BCM which is getting installed soon. BCM will not customize anything for you, what is on their site is what u can order. RRA takes about a month to assemble something specifically for you, but u have to order through an FFL.

KSG's in stock
Please, lets distinguish between online auctions and retailers. I have not seen one ksg for sale above msrp in the retail devision, only on auction sites, where the price is set by those buying it, not selling it. I find it very respectable that retailers are not over charging for the ksg. Most places in NJ have either not recieved any shipments, or they got one due to the low volume. They have started to ship, how many is anyones guess, and when the next batch will ship no one knows. Retail prices are fair and around msrp, the issue will be finding one that is availble as they will fly off the shelf. If you really want one i would go with a pre-order at your local shop that has them on order already. If i had to guess, most places will be getting a very low number probably around 2-3 if that.

If obama wins 2nd term, what would you do?
It's still going on to some degree, sales have been up across the board since he took office. My guess is that suppliers are pumping out more and more for the high demand then in a long time. The market was just shocked a few years ago at the "unexpected"(not so unexpected) rise in sales.

If obama wins 2nd term, what would you do?
If a politician wants to be a 2 term president, then he needs to reserve certain issues until his second term. anti-gun legislation would put someone at a severe disadvantage during elections compared to someone who brushes off the topic like Obama and Christie. People speculate what they may intend to do for future legislation, but to narrow minded people...what they dont see they dont care about. 2nd term hits and all bets are off in Obamas case, nothing is holding him back. I cant imagine why people would vote for him again, he hasn't done a damn thing in terms of pulling this country together, let alone where he stands in terms of the economy and gun rights. If anything this country has become more devided since he took office, which to me is enough to call it quits with this guy.

My first build
this. If you already own a 20" ar i would go for the 14.5" + muzzle break = 16" Maybe go for a light weight configuration. This way you have two nice purpose specific ar's. Check out BCM, they have some good stuff in stock right now, but they tend to run out quick. Also the select fire modes dont matter, the sear inside is what matters. If you have a semi sear, you will never be able to move the selector into burst/FA.

Recommended AR AMO
I could be wrong but i dont think this exist... Federal has xm193 in 5.56, AE is .223. cannot go wrong using xm193 or xm855. I use both.

National guard taking Camden
i agree maks. What is the long term plan? sure bring in the NG, but at what point do you decide they have servered their purpose... and what plan is put forward to make sure it wasnt all for nothing.... I see it this way, bring in the NG, crime rates drop....... nothing has really changed but military presence.. when they leave everythingjust goes back the way it was before the NG showed up... Piss poor temporary fix to something that needs much more attention then this.

This may seem self explanatory, but the question of pinning a brake?
blind pin it with a tack weld on top, but do not use a roll pin, make sure it is a solid pin. If anyone tries to remove you muzzle device a roll pin may not be strong enough.

Kel-Tec KSG
It was hanging on the wall, the guy said it just arrived and only 1, i would have checked it out but i had ppl waiting for me in the lanes. I was really suprised at the price. I actually hope someone on here jumps on it, and gives us a nice review.
-
Kel-Tec KSG
Just got back from the bullet hole and they had 1 ksg in stock, price was $689. I almost bought it, not sure why i didnt... worse case scenario i could just sell the damn thing 2x the price if i didnt like it. If you really want one i would give them a call asap.

How much Ammo can you legally keep at home in NJ?
500rds and up is buying in bulk if your talking about anything larger then a .22...., when ammo is sold in boxes of 20 or 50 and you buy a "lot" of boxes its called bulk. Purchasing in bulk has nothing to do with what you personally have in stock. The best prices on 9mm and 5.56 are the 1000rd bulk cases. In fact most of the time 500rd and 1000rd cases are the largest bulk purchases u can make on most ammo. You can of course purchase multipile cases but the "bulk" factor doesnt chage, as in it doesnt get cheaper the more cases you buy. Buying in bulk is relative to the round being purchased. Where you are purchasing multiple retail boxes(ussually the amount that is shipped from factory. for a discounted price. I went to ramsey outdoor and they had 1000rd cans of loose 5.56 for like $450, that to me is not bulk. They are retail cans and show retail price. However, u can go online and purchase bulk packs of 20rd boxes (50boxes) for $325 of the same exact stuff, that to me is bulk. When i get low on inventory i purchase another case since there is no benefit to buying more then 1 at a time other then having a stock pile. It's easy to make jokes when your buying 5k+ rounds of 22lr for 200 bucks, hell i have 5k rounds of just 22lr from my bulk purchase, but i also buy 9mm per 1000 and 5.56 per 1000 as those are the best prices and normal all that is availibe. It doesnt get cheaper from their so unless your stock pileing ammo its personal opinion as to how much to have at any given time.

Fingerprints only good for 6 months?
When i spoke to my PD they claimed that all municipalites are required to go digital now, not sure when the deadline was or is. Most Pd's made the switch before the deadline, mine did it some 2 years ago. Thats great they can take the prints in house digitally, going to morpho cost alot and is time consuming.
-
Fingerprints only good for 6 months?
This is old... and not even relevant anymore. You dont pay the division of State police anymore. Im not sure what the deal is but this should have been changed by now. This guide is from pre-digital prints, when everything was black ink and paper.
-
Fingerprints only good for 6 months?
The only time you should be asked to do it again is if you have not had them taken digitally, or if the state division doesn't have your prints on file, like say the dept. of education in my case. I have had more then 4 bg checks done in the past 3 years(all evenly spaced out), and not once have i had to actually be printed twice for the same thing( i just file for the bg check). The state police could learn a thing or 2 from the doe, u file online and they send you an approval in the mail within a month(if your already printed and on file), no reason the SP cant do it this way other then wasting (our)time and money. Imagine filing for PP's online and having them in a month!!! Would completely bypass the municipality BS.
