Weedwacker w/ Brush Cutting Attachment
All of these companies make cheap versions of their products, Stihl probably offers the greatest range in quality vs pricing... I wont buy anything but stihl after using their orange head products, which is anything above their residential lines. I buy all my products out of Power Place in Rockaway and they gas and tune everything before it leaves their store. I think ECHO is a great brand for the residential line up of products and fits a lot people needs well in that price range, but if you up your budge Stihl will most likely have much better offerings in their Farm and Professional line ups.

Is this a bad time to buy reloading components?
I love the Lyman funnel with the orange inserts.. its the anti static one. Also I use titegroup exclusively.. with plated bullets, and the smoke is low.. it just doesn't like bare lead and certain coatings. Xtreme bullets have always done very well for me, and they are oddly just as consistent as the other major brands.. even better than some.

Stealth Cruiser?
I dont think these are patrol vehicles set up for traffic, or even apprehension of individuals. Almost like vehicles for "desk jobs", its a basic car with lights to get them from point a to b... so no cage, radar, computer or costly equipment that wouldn't be used anyway

Stealth Cruiser?
Definitely an LEO of sorts. Could be anything from a detective, CO/probations officer to someone in an administrative role. I have a guy down the block with a white one who is a detective. And I pass 1 guy in a suit on my way to work in a blue one pretty regularly. They all have the unmarked lights in the same location. Up here almost all the patrol vehicles for Town use are Explorers and even f-150's... the one unmarked vehicle i have seen was a blue explorer. The 287 unmarked staties are all dodge chargers unless the recently upgraded. The days of spotting crowvic headlights is over... Every soccer mom gets my heart racing these days.

If a bullet is not listed in a book with load data, you have to find it's closest alternative and adjust accordingly. You can cross reference load data from manufactures as well. Many times, you will find that the data is not ideal and shows conflicting min and max powder charges. For most people when they start out with unknown load data, they usually load their bullets to max COAL and min charge (nearest comparative bullets) so they don't run the risk of over pressure, and will work up from there.

Is ammo considered hazmat?
its unclear to me if it will be shipped under full hazmat classification even when the rule goes into effect. This is supposed to streamline domestic and international shipping, so It looks like this will be the new normal.

Magazine Springs
not sure which ones you are referring to, but i have not come across magazines that retain the original spring seat when a spacer is used.. the spacer usually takes its place. In any case.. i have not come across any law that regulates parts of magazines. Constructive intent that is. Unless something has changed, the law says a magazine is illegal if it can feed more than 10 rounds continuously.. If its its disassembled it cant do that. Now what the law says, and someone(LEO) trying to nab you.. i mean anyone can put it together on the spot and screw you..

Magazine Springs
Sounds like a permanently altered 10rd magazine to me. A 30rd spring alone would not be illegal to own in that case. If you have a 10rd spring with a spacer... just by removing the spacer and adding a 30rd spring will not make ur magazine function correctly. You need the correct spring seat that holds the spring and base plate in alignment. I have magazines that can be disassembled, they are 20rd bodies but the internals can only be configured to make a 10 round capacity magazine. If I were to purchase the 20rd parts i would be in violation of the law.

Book either publish lead or jacketed bullet specs. Any special coatings or plating you need to figure they fall somewhere in between. You always work up your load so it's really an irrelevant issue.

Gun industry &, suicide prevention forge unlikely alliance
"The study did not examine owners’ detailed information like medical histories or personal circumstances " With these 2 points, I have to wonder... what exactly did they study? My only take away is that guns are a successful means for suicide. And why does the study mention gun-rights proponents? Guns are effective... yeah you really made a solid point their against gun ownership.

I do not see anything getting much better between now and november. I think right now might be the best time to buy looking forward. Election time there will be a run on stuff, and if Joe Biden wins, another run... if he is in office and we have another 2012? it could be 2 years before prices calm down or worse.
-
Is this a bad time to buy reloading components?
Its all relative... right now its not a good time for ammo. Prices are way up from just 6 months ago. However, election year.... price can still go further up, and availability down. Very unpredictable. There was a run of reloading components about 2 months ago.. seems a lot of stuff is in stock and prices look decent. However, certain powders were hard to come by late last year, hodgon had issues with production, i think it was a supply issue. Not sure if other companies had issues too..

home gardening?
Thats really depressing to hear because my cucumbers are my pride and joy lol. Did you apply neem oil to the soil? the plants supposedly absorb it and will kill anything that eat them.
-
home gardening?
Im using neem oil right now, will see if it gets rid of them. They already went to town on a few cucumbers and nearly decimated my biggest vine. I caught them early, and they were really only infested on 2 of the 8 plants they will eat. Neem oil is pretty safe and effective, will see how it works out.

Visiting NJ with an "OTHER"
The statutes above are for the unlawful possession of weapons and does not cover the exemptions that allow for transporting weapons in this state for a LEGAL reason. AFAIK, the only weapons in this state that are not limited in where they may be transported is rifles and shotguns with an FPID.. everything else is restricted. This is what you have to work with to transport an "other" legally in state. "Nothing in subsections b., c., and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent a person keeping or carrying about his place of business, residence, premises or other land owned or possessed by him, any firearm, or from carrying the same, in the manner specified in subsection g. of this section, from any place of purchase to his residence or place of business, between his dwelling and his place of business, between one place of business or residence and another when moving, or between his dwelling or place of business and place where the firearms are repaired, for the purpose of repair. For the purposes of this section, a place of business shall be deemed to be a fixed location."

Valentine 1 Gen 1
I ran a gen 1 in my car from 2005 through 2012.. I probably picked up 4 speeding tickets using it.. While it saved my ass plenty of times, the local cops flip KA on off around here, and state troopers use a lot of laser on rt 80 pkw tpk. Im very vigilant, and these all happened at night. Since getting a false reading almost every other mile, and not being able to program them out enough, I just stopped speeding and ditched the radar in general. I actually stopped getting tickets... go figure lol If i was gonna spend the money again, I would get a K40..

Why is UPS so messed up?
Its kinda annoying, we've had at least 4 deliveries delayed, like in the truck "out for delievery" and then randomly not show up. Messages are always random like undeliverable, or weather.
