Tossed between these two clubs
I am a cj member as well, everything lunicy said is pretty much right on the money. I do a lot of late night indoor shooting,I think only once or twice I've gone before 12 am all other times I've gone later, that was a big reason for me joining. Everyone's nice that I have encountered there , always willing to help or just like to have some friendly conversation between shooting. Property is just huge and like its been said it's never really crowded because the amount of facilities available. Just a great ,member run place all around.

Nice save, Obama
I think the pulling of troops is good, however if everyone leaves and Iraq goes down the toilet our country will be to blame so either way we cant really win.

About gun safes and cabinets....
My uncle has some nice gun cabinets, but he lives in the mountains, hunts often ,has no kids in the house and had a gun ready and loaded in almost every room in the house. So showing off your guns is more of a matter of do you have the right living situation and atmosphere. I would say that in some area's such as my town locking things up have become more of a practice because break ins are more common, crime is up. I also have kids in my house almost every weekend I do not want to take the chance of someone taking my guns and or a child opening a cabinet and shooting themselves.

Presenting ID to an officer of the law?
I can understand people like to invoke their rights but honestly some people go about it in very stupid ways. I dont see the harm in the guy with video camera being a bit nicer just telling the officer his name, not showing any id and explaining its his right to refuse.Whether the cop is a good one or bad one or taking advantage of his position, just be the better person.

CC in NJ?
It depends on you and how involved you get in wanting it to change. It will happen if the majority fight for it and work together.

Hornady Zombie Max..
They should be selling rounds that are considered inhumane to use on a living person like phosphor rounds or shotgun flechette rounds. Stuff you could use on a undead person cause they have no soul anyways.

Hornady Zombie Max..
So basically what I am gathering here is they took their critical defense ammo line, and they added lime green dye to the rubber filler for the handgun hollow points. For the rifle and shotgun rounds they took their defense loads and dipped the rifle rounds tips in lime green paint and wrote on the shotgun shell casings and charge 15% more then the home defense rounds. They have a marketing genius on staff.

nj legal upper
1/7 twist gives faster rotation on bullet creating more wear and more heat, this is more noticeable in rifles where someone does a lot of rapid firing with their rifle or rifle can do full auto.

nj legal upper
It depends on some factors. In 2000 U.S. Army did a report and said average life of their steel, chrome lined barrels, with 1/7 twists in their M16A2's/m4's was about 9600 rounds. Keep in mind these rifles see full auto use and they use full power rounds,and 1/7 twist barrels burn out quicker then 1/9 with such loads. In civilian use these chrome lined barrels would last about 20k rounds due to lighter loads and being semi auto being the main factors.Chrome moly about 10k, and SS barrels about 10k Advantages/Disadvantages: Chrome lined gives the longest barrel life, and is reliable and I would use in shtf situations and plinking. Stainless Steel gives you the most accuracy and reliability in its barrel life and I would use in match shooting and shtf situations and plinking. Chrome moly is more accurate then chrome lined at longer distances but needs to be cleaned after most uses, I would not trust it for shtf situations and wears faster then the chrome lined barrels, I would only plink with these barrels. When it comes to match shooting,barrel life is subjective, I know guys that toss out SS barrels after 3k rounds because they see a difference at 200+ yards they dont like. However those barrels could still be great for thousands of rounds at 50-100 yards.

nj legal upper
Uppers you will find that are nj legal from the box are ones with bull barrels and the gas block cant have the bayonet lug. If you dont want that style you have to make sure that the barrel has a compensator not flash hider and that its pinned and welded. As far as barrel choices their is chrome moly , chrome lined and stainless steel. Stainless cost the most but accuracy is best, chrome lined barrels last the longest and are the middle of the price range and require only basic cleaning. Accuracy of chrome lined barrels are good but plating on a micro level isn't perfectly even, so some accuracy is lost. Chrome moly is accurate but barrel wears faster then other two options, after shooting, the barrel needs to be cleaned well because it has the least corrosion resistance. Del-ton makes good uppers Midwayusa has some good deals on DPMS stainless bull uppers right now and Jsesurplus has nice uppers aswell.Palmettostatearmory has some really good packages but for nj there is more modding needed for most of the uppers because they all have flash hiders and bayonet lugs,aimsurplus has good prices on spikes tactical uppers but them being in stock is sometimes a issue. Those are not the only companies but they are the ones I have dealt with and have seen uppers with good components at good prices. Best of luck

Collapsible stock question
Basically if you have all the parts together in one location its considered illegal, is the ATF doing random house searches to check for "illegal" components though, no. I just pinned my stock yesterday got a 1/8th roll pin from lowes drilled through the stock and rail section of the tube and hammered it in. I would not ship to a FFL for this, its something you can do yourself with some planning ahead.You can get a proper feel for stock placement without the upper, and just have the lower attached in my opinion. Just off set your lower purchase so you pin the stock before you get your upper.

Disturbing development at Cherry Ridge Range
I belong to central jersey and we have camera's in the indoor range and its simply cause people can be idiots and don't speak up when they break things. We have people shooting the ceiling and marker posts and or they damage the Target holders and dont tell anyone. I really wouldn't be too worried about it there reasons for doing cameras seems just.

safe opinions
Right now this safe at costco is the best bang for the buck in my opinion.canon safeI am unsure if its water tight or not and I dont know if thats what your looking for in the next safe but features and quality for the price this is your best option. I bought the big horn from costco when it was on sale it and I love the safe, Just my two cents.

Bank of America
I have removed myself from the practice of paying debit years ago for similar reasons as this. When I get paid I withdraw some money for potential cash purchases and keep the rest for possible creditcard bills. I know alot of younger people that dont have credit card discipline and would spend till they are broke or simply dont have the credit score to get a card, so they have to use debit cards.

Interest in NJGF USPSA/IDPA shooting team shirts.
I feel the same, I dont feel I am cool enough yet, but I am down for whenever the buy will be. I think even if people wore them to the ranges while practicing(if that's ok of course)that is still exposure for the vendors that may wish to sponsor this shirt buy.

NJ CCW Petition- Please sign
I Think all these different organizations need to form under one group and do it that way , everyone's too spread apart and peoples agenda's are all over the place.Instead of petition people need to walk on Trenton and on these d bag politicians houses, let them know this isn't ok, they are doing more harm then good.

Canon Safe at Costco - $799 delivered
Just make sure that if your getting the liberty safe that its an American made model, because their china models are not so good and definitely inferior in its fire protection and security features to that Costco cannon safe.

Tracer Rounds in NJ
My rule of thumb is if it makes sense or is cool odds are its illegal here. HOWEVER! http://www.titanreloading.com/glow-ammo this might be legal because its a cold tracer dot put on the back of the projectile before you reload the casing. I think its a glow in the dark dot that gets charged from the flash of the powder.

Question for cartridge collectors
I was going to first say maybe you have Berdan style primer cartridges but then you wouldn't be able to put any sort of primer on there since it has a curved inside. I am just at loss for what you have, your defying firearm history right now.
