Which .22LR Round Are You Using?
Mostly the Federal Champion Bulk packs that are being mentioned, and for probably the same reason. It is cheap, you can easily buy it in bulk (duh!), and it has been completely reliable. I recently did an accuracy test using my Marlin 60 at 25 yards. I tested Federal Champion Bulk (36 grain HP), Federal AutoMatch (40 grain round nose), CCI Mini-mags (40 grain round nose), and CCI Mini-mags (36 grain HP). For practical plinking, all 4 shot great. I shot 10 shot groups, and all 4 shot one ragged hole with the exception of the Federal bulk, which shot one ragged hole with a couple 'fliers' I guess you could say. I shot these 10 shots groups twice to help eliminated shooter error, parallax error and see if the groups were similar. They were. Overall, all 4 ammos shot great. None had any failures. The only thing that I could infer from my test, is that the Federal bulk may just have a little less consistency in accuracy.

Good for you, relying on insults because of your own failed understanding of my post. I wonder where I got that link from.......Good thing you had a well thought out, justified response. I almost thought otherwise....oh, nevermind. I again ask, where this mounting evidence is. Because what you posted is not evidence. Being arrested would be a start for evidence, but a statement that if someone were to have that happen, based on an interpretation of the law, that may or may not be correct, and would may or may not hold up in court or in appeal, is far from mounting evidence.

.22 SEMI SHOOTOUT!!
Not that you are wrong, but the main purpose may not be that. He said the first thing was reliability. So that (what you said) may not necessarily be the case. I know the main purpose of my .22 pistol is NOT just so I get more trigger time, or to help me shoot my center fire pistols. It is a target pistol for target shooting. However, if that is the case, then I agree. I am also tempted to get a M&P 22 as I do have an M&9 9 already...however I would rather buy a shotgun or another rifle as I don't like shooting pistols as much. To help the OP... All three are quite different styles of .22 pistol. It is hard to help you chose because of such. If you do in fact prefer something that is like a centerfire pistol, then based on what you shoot, get the one close to that (1911 vs M&P). If you want a .22 to plink or target shoot with, I say go with the Ruger (either 22/45 or Mk II or III). Personally, I prefer the Mk III grip angle to the 22/45, but that is entirely personal preference.

Ocean City Police Charge Man with Weapons Offenses
I just remembered I actually might have a tin foil hat. Would you like to borrow it? Just as possible? When is the last time something like in your scenario happened? Because, oops, turns out someone dropping a loaded 30 whatever round mag on the beach just did. http://www.capemaycountyherald.com/article/police/ocean+city/76130-ocean+city+police+charge+man+weapons+offenses So what is really more likely. Sounds like someone just had holes shot right through their theory...

Simple math problem
Probably a ballistics calculator or chart.

Please cite where this is illegal. And by illegal I mean illegal, and not a vague misguided interpretation of something with no evidence to back that interpretation up. Tin foil hat as was said by someone else? Indeed. Again, ^^^, this... By the same reasoning, it would be illegal to drive from the store you purchased them in, to your home. Why? Because though it says you can purchase it, and have it at your dwelling, a store is not an exempted location. Where is this "mounting evidence"? Is it under that tin foil hat that rolled out from under your seat? Now don't take this too seriously, what I am just trying to get at, is the reason there are so many misconception about NJ gun laws, is that because they are so terrible, people think that everything is illegal or whatnot, but often have no evidence to back up their assumptions.

That is somewhat ironic considering the circumstances.

Concealed carry to mail box
I'll add "carrying in your own yard" to the list of trend items people are afraid to do in NJ.

Ft Bragg ammo missing.
I think everyone should read the comments. Well, if you want a laugh that is. "It is just 5.56, you can by that at Walmart." "No you can't". "No way one person could carry that all. Most soldiers can only carry about 300 rounds." "Who let the ATF on base?" It could very easily be an accounting error. Heck, 14 guys, one day at the range, there goes your 14k rounds. The E-3 or E-4 stuck in the armory doing the issuing, who hates it and wishes he were out shooting instead of filling out stupid paperwork, and there you go. Problem solved.

Help w/new Ruger Mark3 Hunter disassembly
I got extremely frustrated the first time I tried as well. I found this guy to by helpful. He forgoes all the technical mumble jumble and explains in rather humorous terms what to do.
-
So this is why cops become cops?
I hear the sound of glass breaking. Arrested for such things? World shattered.

Mosin Nagant Safety?
What did you do when you say you field stripped it? You should do a full disassembly of the entire rifle and bolt, and clean all the parts individually.

Hollow Points
Is that the actual reason? In most cases, yes. But there is an argument for the first thing you said. And it is actually a pretty good one. Hollow points are not against the Geneva Convention because they prevent over penetration, they are illegal because they can "increase human suffering". I'm sure there are people who could bring this up and be pretty damn convincing using it too... With that said, I am not making that argument. I do carry hollow points in my pistol at home.

need a flashlight
You would choose Surefire for any flashlight or just rail mounted lights? I'm with you. Fenix is where it is at when it comes to flashlights quality light to price ratio.

FID and paperwork - where to keep it?
I keep all of said paperwork in my imagination. I have as much desire to obtain any of that as the police in this state have to following the law when it comes to issuing said paperwork...none.

The worst YouTube gun review video ever
Good thing he can get a good purchase on that thing with such a small ducktail.

Am currently getting hailed on!
Marble sized may not, but golf ball sized sure does! I got caught in a freak hail storm about 5 years ago in NH that destroyed 6 car dealerships inventory, collapsed the roof of a Walgreens, went through house windows and A/C units, and did this to my car. That is not water, that is broken glass and dents in the windows and hood respectively.

Red Bank requiring in person interviews now?
Did you just say that the benefit is that that part of the law if followed? Some benefit... Got to love NJ though right.

Seal Team 6 Helicopter crash
One of the worst days since OEF started for Coalition forces. It is my understanding that normally there wouldn't be that many in one bird but they were responding rapidly in support of ground forces on the ground already engaged in enemy fire. Though it was the same unit that took out Osama Bin Laden, it was not the same Team members. Let's not forget the 5 crew members and 3 Airmen who were also killed in the crash.

"I'll Take It" in the Marketplace
About the OP's situation, does he have legitimate gripe? Sort of. It sounds like they had already made arrangements. But at the same time, as Maks said, you can't force people to sell to anybody in particular, or just because he saw it first. Sure that would be nice, but it doesn't always work out. What if they are trying to unload something ASAP. If Joey can make it happen the quickest, even if he is the 10th person to inquire, it is his. Maybe it is simply easier to sell the buyer 7 than buyer 1 because of logistics, work schedules, time constraints, etc. If I'm selling something and Billy from next door offers to buy it but Bobby from 2 hours away wanted it first, well sorry Bobby. It is easier for me to walk next door then arrange a meet, or ship something (which cost money), or whatnot. Why do people sell things on this forum? Because the people here have a similar interest in things and most people are pretty local. Or in other words, it is convenient. Unfortunately for the buyers, the convenience is almost always in favor of the seller. That is just how it is. This isn't ebay or another site like that. So as a buyer, you just have to take it for what it's worth. That is just my 2 cents.

5.11 Tactical TDU Jumpsuit
Well that certainly makes sense. I read "tactical", saw a guy with a gun and gun belt on over it and thought, who is walking around wearing that getup, even if just to the range... Tell me that photo didn't make that dude look like a jackass..
-
Guns & amo from other states?
No worries. I probably could have been a bit more clear about it anyways.

If by cool you mean makes you look like a jackass, then yes, very cool.

No you are not.

Top Shot Season 3
Putting the reality show "you can play the reality show game model to win even if you aren't very good" thing aside, I am looking forward to the show. They had some damn cool shooting competitions and most of the shooters are one hell of a shot. I understand the show wouldn't get the views without the reality show aspect, but I wish they would focus more on the shooting. Either way, it is entertaining enough for me to watch.
