A Witness Speaks........
This is the kind of attitude that gets you labeled as a troll. Once someone resorts to name calling or insults, their credibility goes out the window and nothing they say is taken seriously any longer. The rest of the posters with dissenting opinions expressed them without resorting to this kind of behavior. They included past examples, some even very personal, to explain their position and opinions. You should learn from their example as a way of expressing and explaining your opinions and arguments.

Target Stands
I'd be interested in 2 of the spiked stands, but I do have a question... I shoot at CJ, and the ground is very sandy. I would like to use this in the pits where I think they will be fine, but also out on the rifle range. It does get pretty windy sometimes. Do you think the spike stand is sufficient for use in sandy ground and be able to take a few wind gusts without falling over?

Another LNL purchase
I suppose it is the standard grease nipple, looks like the one you would find on a car , though admittedly, I'm not a nipple expert by any means. Why do I enjoy typing nipple so much.... I recommend a white lithium type. Less messy than the black grease types.

Another LNL purchase
I just started loading 9mm with my new lnl also. The extra spot works good for a RCBS lockout powder die. It actually will lock the press with a severely over or undercharge. The Hornady powdercop forces you to watch a little gauge marker but will not lock up the press. I also use the Hornady taper crimp/seater die set. The taper/seater can be a little tricky to setup, but once you get the hang of it, no problems. I'm using CCI small pistol primers, and have pretty much settled on Winchester WSF powder, measures well, runs clean, performs well, but from my understanding it is "reverse temp sensitive". Maks has some good info on that as he's the one that turned me on to the stuff. Just a heads up, you will want to have a grease gun and grease ready for when you get the press. There are 3 grease nipple fittings at strategic points that will need a pump or two. Pay attention to the bottom advancing fingers and their mating disk at the bottom, lube them up well to prevent wear that would result in you needing to make indexing adjustments. You should also have some bolts, washers, and nuts ready for mounting to your bench ahead of time. Otherwise you will be making the trip to the hardware store while you would rather be learning how to use your new toy. Good luck!

Colt Python
Is there anything special about these revolvers that make them worth so much. I mean I know they don't make them anymore, and they are good guns, but what makes them so collectable?

Is this Replacement Stock NJ Legal?
Correct, technically you cannot have that adjustable stock with pistol grip all at the same location that you have the rest of your 10/22, that would be "constructive possession" of an AW under NJ law. You could always order the stock to a friend or family's house who does not own a 10/22, go there and set it up and pin it, then bring it home and marry it to your rifle. IMO, that would be within the law.

A Witness Speaks........
Its called control of information, and is usually exercised by anyone who is a potential defendant. If you were involved in a SD shooting , the last thing your attorney would want you or any other witnesses to do is to go on TV and all over the internet telling your story. Let stuff calm down, get all the details, let the other side slip up and show all their cards, then in a controlled fashion, release information as necessary.

If this thing pulls a 180, the socialists are going to have a lot of pie on their face. I'd imagine they are trying to backpedal and distance themselves already.

Advice on not getting P2P in 30 days
This is more highly aggravating news, what is the court case title? As for the OP, seems we can no longer quote the 30 day statute. Your best bet is to do as others say here and put pressure on the PD. I'd wait at least 45 days to demonstrate that you have been patient. I usually call the clerk who handles the permits and ask her where in the process I am. If they say waiting on references, I'll offer to hand deliver the letters. If they say they are waiting on the NJSP, I'll ask for their number to call them. If she says its with the LEO in charge of ID or whatnot , I ask for his/her name and number and call them. If it is "on the cheif's desk", I'll ask for his/her number to call them and see if I can help. Whatever you do, be polite but assertive. Always explain what your next course of action is, like others have said... escalating up the line. Also be persistent, call every few days and run through the same play. Demonstrate that you will not stop, magically your PPP will be available in a few days after you start this. Squeaky wheel gets the grease!

Soc Sec # on Permit to purchase
As others said it is voluntary. F2F I wouldn't do it. For purchases from a FFL/dealer I do include it, though I may stop doing that as I don't ever recall the dealer needing to read off my SSN to NICS. Only the SBI.

Another pre election ammo shortage?
There are various degrees of SHTF. IMO one that would require thousands and thousands of rounds of ammunition is highly unlikely. I don't think people hoard ammo just for SHTF scenarios... they do so because of speculation that something (or someone) is going to stop the supply in the future, or that the price will drastically increase so buy while low. Same goes for any commodity speculation. And just like the stock market, many times it is purely driven by emotions and not so much the facts. That being said, I purchased a bunch of 308 back in the $29 per 140 days and still have it. That stuff has appreciated more in value than any other investment that I have. Many think the next round of seemingly irreversible increases are around the corner... no more $10 boxes of 9mm, or sub $300 per 1K of .223 plinking/milsurp, etc. There is some fact behind this , as inflation is rising and prices are steadily going up. I don't know of anything "getting cheaper" these days. The only things leaning out are US jobs and people's retirement savings...

Want your blood to boil?... watch this - msnbc clip on Zimmerman incident
They are spewing that Zimmerman is the "NRA's poster child", then define him as a violent man with a violent past , inferring these are the people that the NRA wants to arm... I could barley get through watching this peanut board of mental midgets. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3096434/vp/46835890#46835890

Collapsible vs adjustable stock
There was a case awhile back where somebody was arrested for possession of an AW because it had a M4 style "movable" stock on it. His defense argued successfully that the stock was not "collapsible" as real "collapsible stocks" means they can fold completely away from the rifle. In this case they argued to the jury that the movable M4 style stock was in fact an "adjustable" stock. I forget the details as it wasn't really publicized. It doesn't help us, as the only way this case can help you is to act as precedent / example if you ever get charged with AW possession and happen to have the same "movable" stock on your rifle. You will still be arrested, and taken to court, and would have to prove yourself innocent. Don't get me started with the NJAC AW evil feature list. It is a band-aid approach that allows NJ to keep the unconstitutionally vague AW ban on the books. It is a compromise, NJ gets to say they are still the ultimate nanny state, and we get to have our tacticool guns and just have to follow a bunch of stupid nonsensical rules (NJAC EFL). Theoretically , both anti's and pro-gun rights people are both semi-happy about the situation... well that was the plan anyway.

I need some suggestions for a NJ legal semi auto rifle
Semi-Auto and $400 for a 7.62 cal gun really limits your choices. You are pretty much in AK clone style/SKS shooting 7.62x39 territory. For around $600 you can start looking at the Saiga 308 or if you want to go hunting styled , a Rem 750. After that you are talking $950 and up territory for a .308 SA tacticool style rifle.
