McCarthy is in the House, so her bill cannot be attached to a Senate bill, it would need to sponsored by someone in the Senate. I don't know if Lautenberg's bill is the Senate version of this bill or just similar.

And a recently retired police chief getting shot and killed in Newark.

That's because Al Gore is too busy looking for "Manbearpig".

Not sure about England, but most of Europe is that way and a lot less sue happy.

I sell wood pellets and have yet to run into someone who didn't like their pellet stove. A lot of them had wood stoves before, but like the convenience of pellet stoves. There was an issue back two years ago with pellet fuel supply, but this year and last year there is plenty of pellets to be had.

The way to stop frivolous lawsuits is to automatically require the plaintiff to pay the defendants legal fees if the defendant substantially prevails in a suit. This would allow truly egregious behavior to be punished, but would curtail a lot of frivolous cases where the plaintiff wouldn't want to risk losing a lot of money.

Most towns will make you get a zoning permit (to ensure your not over your impervious coverage %)if you want to expand your driveway regardless of what you surface it with.

When looking for a contractor for paving the questions you need to ask (aside from the requisite: are they reliable, honest, insured and registered as a home improvement contractor in NJ) are about how they are going to install your new driveway. Like any construction project, the base is everything. Most asphalt guys seem to want to level out what's there already, maybe add a minimal amount of base material and pave over it with a couple inches of asphalt. A driveway constructed this way will usually start to crack in 3-5 years (unless you have really good soils) and will need to be replaced after about 10 years. If you want it to last, the more quarry process/road stone (or if your in south jersey "modified") the better. I don't do asphalt paving but install paver driveways. We usually put 10" of QP under them as well as a Geotextile underlayment. The reason a driveway starts to rut, and with asphalt crack, is the base cannot hold the weight when the soil (usually clay) gets saturated. The worst time for this is during spring thaw. More base = longer lasting driveway (regardless of what surface you put on it). Forget stamped concrete, I have sold many paver driveways to people who looked into it and realized the cost was about the same. Pavers, when installed properly will last 30-40 years, stamped concrete will flake off in 5-10 years.

I don't know what to make of that flier, Merkt is a gun collector and I thought an NRA member, and a supporter of CC.

Liberalism is a mental illness.

OK let's summarize Inside your home: No retreat necessary, use of force permitted (including deadly force) IF YOU FEEL THREATENED or SOMEONE ELSE IS THREATENED ONLY. If you are home alone and you shoot an intruder in the back inside your house, you are most likely going to have a problem unless you can demonstrate there was an active threat. On you property: Must retreat if possible before force of any kind can be used. In public places or someone else's property: Must retreat if possible before force of any kind can be used.

I'm just getting into reloading myself. I opted to spend the money on a progressive press since I was looking to get volume out of it, and I don't have a lot of time. If your looking to just load match grade ammo, a single stage press is fine. If your looking to save money making go bang ammo, a progressive is a lot faster.

I know I'm going to put in another app for PP's before I get these permits. If they think they are discouraging me, it's not working.

Better have good heath insurance, I could see a lot of crack wrists if someone tried to shoot something like that.

"common-sense gun safety bills" = we don't have a logical reason to justify a need for this new law, so we'll call it "common-sense" to rationalize it.

So is this legal? I noticed that the Cherry Ridge "meetups" specifically state that you cannot bring firearms or ammo, only list what you have for sale.

More like, continues to get worse.

Since when can you sell guns at a gun show in NJ? Dealers are permitted to sell guns only at the address on their license.

Nice stuff you got there! Do you know of anyone selling CZ 52's right now? I haven't come across any lately, wouldn't mind picking one up. Already have a 70, 82 and 83. The PTR's are nice, I might have to get one when funds allow.

Every show is different, but at larger shows your more likely to find a "diamond in the rough". Will agree that the is A LOT of crap at Forks but I often still find some deal on something or other and the guy from NY sells ammo as cheep as the online guys if your just looking for decent go bang ammo. I'm looking for milsurp or collectible stuff and I usually find something that is a good deal at bigger shows. I don't recall the Rodeway show ever really having many of the key players or a good variety of most items. The show at the PA expo center was really good a few years ago before it was stopped, it was back last year but not the same. And yes, your right compared to NJ almost any show in PA is worlds better on selection and price than what we can find here.

Something's going on ..... put in for PPP's just before Thanksgiving and still don't have them yet, usually takes 4 weeks, was told the mental check didn't come back yet. I got permits two other times last year, it takes 8+ weeks to check I didn't go crazy in the 3 months since I last applied?

I was being slightly sarcastic, and I understand about the different cultures, my thought was about how they were firing them without holding them above their heads, just seems like an accident is bound to happen sooner or later. I've seen that video before, that's messed up.

Valley Forge and Forks of the Delaware in Allentown usually have the best deals on ammo and are both better shows than the small cramped Rodeway show. Splitrock in the Poconos is also not bad in general.

Matamoras - I saw the two Mosins he got, the M38 was sporterized and the M44 was original but the stock was a little beat up, but for that price, how can you go wrong? I saw the other Mosin Jim picked up for you and thought "that's a Ted special". It looked rather rough on the outside, was it complete? what was the bore like?

That was at Matamoras not Allentown Ted.
