Bank of America
I don't think you will have too many options, from what I see the other banks are going to be doing the same, I believe Wells Fargo is also starting this. Harry

Bank of America
I don't think they are charging if you use the card at ATM's only, I think the fee's kick in when you make a purchase. Harry

fishing for blowfish..
Pretty cool, I'm with some of the others and didn't know they were in our area. I guess they make a good choice for Fishing Stories. Harry

Steel targets... what ammo???
Worst case scenario is you can damage the target, the other thing is splatter and fragments coming back at you or someone else if not positioned properly, but that can also happen with the proper rate ammo. Harry

storing ammo at home
It can go a few ways, first it could be a regular camera and no GEO-tag so location wouldn't be known, second, who in there right mind would think about breaking into a house that has that much ammo, you would think they would be rather prepared for an intruder. Harry

walther p22 thoughts?
I have one and really like it, but I am also picking up a GSG 1911 next month, I think having a bunch of 22's is great, cheap to shoot, and fantastic for children to learn on and for adults to practice with and not cost a fortune to shoot. Now as some have said and I'll add a few things, some like the looks, some don't but I will say it's not a junk gun at all. I shoots well, eats just about any ammo you feed it in it's stock configuration and with a few real easy modifications that I think anyone should be able to do, it will be even more reliable and more forgiving to some cheap crappy ammo to boot. As mentions the safety, not anything you can really do here but just get used to it and after a few times it becomes second nature and a non-issue. However as far as the hammer dropping with the safety, well that I don't see you being able to change but it does afford you the ability to dry fire the gun without moving the firring pin, some may see that as a plus. The crappy plastic key to lock the gun, well if you never lock it you will never know it there, plus you can just remove the locking system completely. As far as the Magazine safety, I hated that, I want to be able to shoot it and then show the RO that it's unloaded and then I have to drop the hammer prior to bagging it or putting it back in the holster when shotting a match. The way it comes from the factory you have to insert an empty magazine to do this. Now to what you can do to make it better act like a real gun and more reliable as well as making it more forgiving to cheap ammo. Modifications you can do: Blend the feed ramp and polish: this is easy to do but a lot of the suggestions are to use a dremmel to remove a little material, while you will find people recommending the dremmel bit # 9910, I like to do this by hand with a fine polishing stone, but to each there own, it does help and it's a very very small amount of material you want to remove anyway and them polish. This process can take you from 15 minutes to 2 hours depending on how fast or slow you go. Now the big one I would do first, get rid of the stupid magazine safety, this is a process of removing 3 parts, 1 plastic part and the other 2 are 2 springs but it will look like a single part but they are a spring inside of spring, Also while you are there, might as well remove the stupid gun lock that is a total of 2 parts. The time to do both of these should be 5 to 10 minutes, maybe 15 your first time but after you do one it's real easy. the only thing that can take you longer is being you have the gun that far apart, you might want to do a real detailed cleaning. The only note when doing these mods, be very careful of the positioning of the sear spring, you don't need to change anything, it's you just don't want it to pop out of it's position. All in all it's a great little gun, fun and cheap to shoot as well as reliable and if there is a hiccup, as I said a few mods and your even that much better. If anyone has not seen the mods and wants the info on how to do them or help in person and your around the OBRPC I'd be more than happy to help ya out. Harry

Have you been doing that at the shotgun gig the club has or have you and the OL been using the thrower from the container for yourselves?? Harry

New york really???
I agree, and like I said I hope I am not on when something like this happens, I know I have no issues with problems when they happen and thinking thing through and not panicking is key and being methodical in your processes and decision making, but with things like this it's just a different ballgame with no right answer. Believe me, I don't want to ever see another attack like 911 but we are in a world that something like that can happen any time, any place. Harry

Shot Show 2012 - Jan 17th to 20th
hmmmm, lets see, my anniversary is the 16th, wonder if I could make it a his and hers trip with added side trip to the shot show. I'll have to think about this, might be changing my schedule in 2012, I should be taking the 16th to the end of the month off every month rather than working each week so this could work out. Harry

Old Bridge USPSA 9-25-11
Steel is a great option to start being they are shooting from one location and not shooting on the move for the most part on. I plan on getting my 12YO daughter into steel, I want to bring her to OB and her and I can practice together in the pits and then I can get her to start shooting on the move as she get better. That my plan for now, well up until she starts embarrassing her dad by shooting better than me. Harry

Old Bridge USPSA 9-25-11
I saw Razo's answer below your post but it may be different with the steel and indoor matches, but when I spoke with Iggy the day we shot together at the OBRAMS match I was told for OBRAMS he said they would like to limit it to 16 year old. There may be special exemptions for known shooters but this was my understanding and he does run OBRAMS matches. Now the Steel matches I have seen under 16 year old kids shoot, and all of the ones I have seen have done very well. Harry

Etymotic GSP 15 High-Definition Electronic Earplugs
Get the NNR 31, I have them, well the NRA version but it's the exact same thing and they work great and I bet you will be happy with them. Also if you want another opinion see what PizzaBob has to say, be has mentioned that he has them and if I remember correctly also endorses them. Harry

NJ FID/PP Compliancy Project
Then I would call the NJSP Firearms Unit and see what they have to say anyway, there is absolutely no reason it should take that long, minus the time it take for the references to go out and be returned it the actual time needed is probably less than a day, heck NICS should all that's needed but that a dead horse of a topic.

The benefits of shooting with both eyes open...
Not sure if I would that much into it. I think it depends on what you are doing and what works best for you, now fun games I can see learning with both eyes open but start shooting precision pistol and your not going to use both eyes. Plus I am not sure the NRA would have a position either way any way, but I could be wrong and will be told if I am. Harry

Anyone have a Glock 22 or 35 I can try
After reading Ronny's post (#11), if it works out and you get to take me up on the offer remind me to bring some on my steel loads, that way you can feel factory ammo that is good for Major and also my steel load that are good for Minor. Harry
