Old Glock guy

This has a lot of potential. At the very least, it's an entertaining idea.

No, I think he got the point exactly right. The only people adhering to a "mandatory" ban on guns will be the law-abiding citizens. The criminals will then have a safe workplace environment. And yes, the SLEB clearly has no regard for the Second Amendment, but you can bet that they will scream bloody hell if anyone tries to mess with the First.

Ditto here. But I only use mine at the range, not for training, gun games or HD. I don't like having to deal with a safety and the DA/SA difference., but I think it's my finest looking gun.

Nice! I must admit to being severely jealous. Perhaps one day when I'm out of this state...

Lol! Don't piss off Mike Tyson!

I'm sure their strategy is to get a foothold somewhere, then begin to spread the same crap to other places. I shudder to think what would happen if an anti-gun measure got on a referendum in New Jersey!

Congratulations! Best of luck to you.

New Jersey should have signs at its borders reading, "Abandon Second Amendment rights, all ye who enter here."

Gun for Hire range in Woodland Park is probably not too far from you. You can shoot buckshot and slugs there, plus all the .22 your heart desires.

GFH usually offers Urban Pistol classes at their range in Woodland Park. Have not checked the schedule recently, but they may be planning sessions in the near future. Shoot them a note to inquire: [email protected] RTSP also has some basic tactical classes, although they may be a little farther from you.

Looks really nice! Good luck with it. I have a stock Saiga that's OK, but I think I'm going to need to do a conversion to get it to look more like that. (Plus I'm going to have to spend some time figuring out how to hit anything with it.)

No Glocks? Hmm... How about a Beretta 92FS or A1?

Not sure what the woman in that story was thinking. It was almost like, "They have guns, so I guess I'm supposed to go for my mine." That's a dubious proposition when someone has a gun pointed at you, even if yours is fully loaded. That said, I keep one in the chamber in the rare instances when I get to carry in Free America. But at home, I keep the chamber empty, having calculated that the likelihood of the trigger snagging on something and discharging a round is far greater than the extremely unlikely chance of not having sufficient time to rack one in if someone happens to break in. And you guys must not be Italian, because that detective's name did not seem particularly odd to me. Now, if he had been named Michael Vagina... Oh, and aren't sawed off shotguns illegal?

Indeed, Robin Williams will be missed. As others have noted, I was always awed by his comic energy. He could take an inert object and go off and improvise 10 minutes of comedy from it. What an incredible talent! It's interesting to note what seems to be a high incidence of depression among comics. Lenny Bruce and more recently Richard Jenni are two suicides that come quickly to mind. Rodney Dangerfield was also chronically depressed, although he lived a long life. Going back, there was the crying clown of opera, Pagliacci, of whom I heard some references last night.

Lol! I never saw that one before.

What would we have to talk about here if it weren't for things guys say at the range, or "advice" we get from our LGS's and LEO friends?

How did he even SEE that from 1000 yards???

It would be good for the Dems, because they would get two more senators, at least another rep, and three or more additional electoral votes.

Good for you! (And her.) I think the biggest hurdle is actually getting them to the range. Once they're there, they generally enjoy it. I've had my GF to GFH and RTSP a few times. Even got her to take a First Steps Pistol class. She seems to enjoy it, but she doesn't make it the same kind of priority that most of us do. Still have not been able to get her to take the drive up to Cherry Ridge, even though I keep telling her how beautiful it is.

I see what you did there.

I believe he was referring to the membership, but then I think you knew that.

If it's too much of a bother for them to get to gun permits, then they should abolish the system that requires them. That would make their lives, and ours, a whole heck of a lot easier.

There was a lengthy discussion of this idea of applying for CCW permits en masse late last year: http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/62769-nj-ccw-question/?hl=%2Bccw+%2Bapplications#entry801246 Luso got a bunch of us pumped up about it, suggesting the only way we could demonstrate that NJ is not "may issue," but rather "will not issue," is for us to get a bunch of rejections to use as evidence. Have not seen him around here in awhile. Some people complained that a rejection would tarnish their record and force them to answer "yes" when asked on permit apps if a previous application had ever been denied. My understanding is that one would only need to write something like: "The State of New Jersey deemed that I did not have justifiable need for a carry permit." (Or more defiantly, "The State of New Jersey did not deem my life to be worth defending.") As others have noted, I would not have guessed in my wildest dreams that DC would get CCW before we did!

Very nice! Hooray to hear that Beth is alive, and not on the grill!

I posted on another thread that I was thinking of getting a Mini 30, as I like the look of it, and I bought a lot of steel cased 7.62x39 for my recently acquired Saiga. But I have heard that there could be problems using it in the Mini 30. Anyone have experience with that?
