Accurate AR for Newbie
I have the same one and love it, although I've never tested it beyond 100 yards.

Attempted robbery right outside school
Good thing he didn't use a gun, because schools are Gun Free Zones, and he would have been in big trouble.

Just curious where you found such a nice looking 10/22 for $100?

Multiple calibers OR stick with one or two?
Sounds like a plan. Yes, get the Beretta 92A1. Prettiest gun I own, even though I don't shoot it very well.

Multiple calibers OR stick with one or two?
I've tried to limit the number of calibers I stock, for simplicity and economy. I have only two handgun calibers: 9mm (mostly), and a couple of guns in .40 that I rarely use. (Well, actually I also have one in .22lr.) I have three rifle calibers: .22lr, .223/5.56, and 7.62 (just added the last one) My three shotguns are all 12 gauge, by far the most common round, including 00 buckshot, birdshot, and slugs.

Glock 34 vs PPQ 5"
Same here. It's my favorite of my handguns.

The Walking Dead
Now that would be a shocker. Can't say it's impossible, but Daryl is such a fan favorite, especially among the ladies, that I have a hard time believing the writers would get rid of him. The writers are always willing to kill off main characters, but it is generally done in a somewhat predictable fashion. Hence, my prediction that Bob, Sasha, and Beth are potentially on the chopping block tonight. Can't wait to find out!

P2P background checks.
Couldn't have said it better! And don't even get me started on the need for repeat fingerprinting. The value of fingerprints is that they are a permanent record of one's identity. They never change, and are on file digitally. So why should anyone ever need to get fingerprinted more than once???

The end of airport firearms transport?
I just got around to doing a thorough reading of this thread last night, when I realized to my horror that the two flights I have taken this year with my CCW gun could just as easily have ended up with me in jail as on my flight. No one said a word to me either time about the change, or that I was breaking the law. So based on a ruling by the Port Authority, the concept of being OK starting and ending a trip in a legal place no longer applies? And our CCW permits have become a lot less useful, as we can only use them for destinations which we can reach by car?

Legallity of Assault Weapon Statutes
That's a great presentation. I had seen it before, but it's a good review. Itt certainly provides plenty of ammunition to use against the anti. (Puns about shooting are so easy, largely because expressions from shooting are so common in our language.)

Emily something is her name. You can look it up on the TWD website, if you really care to know. BTW, I'm hearing that Sunday night's season finale is going to be a bloodbath. Any more guesses on who's not going to make it. I believe that would put her in the Guinness Book of World Records.

FID change of address DENIED
What a needless load of time, energy, and aggravation! Glad to hear it's working out for you.

Now a Distinguished Expert with a Muzzleloading Rifle
Very impressive! Congratulations.

The Walking Dead
Agreed. I think Bob and Sasha are more vulnerable than anyone named above. I think Beth will outlast them, but I would be surprised if she is predeceased by Glenn or Maggie.

S993: Reduces maximum capacity of ammunition magazines to 10 rounds
Do they attribute that to the pressure we (2A supporters) have been placing on them? Or was it just postponed as an administrative thing?

Legallity of Assault Weapon Statutes
Great analogies! Let's see if it ever goes anywhere. As we all know, logic and gun laws do not go together in NJ.

Federal Fresh Fire Can 325rd .22LR - $18.99
Hooray for Cabela's for making affordable .22 available. And thanks to the OP as well.

The end of airport firearms transport?
I would think the next question would be, "What were you doing?" Anyway, I have a hard time believing that if I'm heading to Newark Airport to go to Florida, or some other place where I can legally carry, that I would get in trouble for having a cased, unloaded handgun in my vehicle. Moreover, in my nearly 62 years, I have never had my vehicle searched. Well, except for one time many years ago. I had a carload of people in costume coming back from a Halloween party. We all had had quite a bit to drink. (They weren't as strict about that way back then.) A scared, young local police officer saw my NY plates and pulled me over. He made me get out of the car and open my trunk, because he said he had a report of a car from NY with shotguns on board. When I opened my trunk, the only thing in it was a fiberglass Mr. Peanut that had been someone's costume. When he asked me what it was, I innocently replied, "It's a peanut!" He let me go without further ado. The funny thing is that if I got pulled over these days, I would probably have a shotgun in my trunk.

My Just say no to A2006 / S977 letter to the gov
Howard, I love the concept of your letter. It's a clever analogy/parody/whatever. But I think oneshot has it right. It does not matter how much logic we present. We are outnumbered, and our legislature is going to do whatever they want, and damn the logic.

I was thinking kind of the same thing, except that I was leaning mostly toward the last part of what you said. Oh, and that picture thing is really freaking me out!

Say it ain't so!

Hmm... Very interesting! I may have to head over to the TWD forum for more info.

Citadel is now making a 9mm carbine is it Legal?
Yes, beat me to it. And I can't tell you how much I hate that! (Not that you beat me to it, but that they arbitrarily declared it illegal in NJ.)

The Walking Dead
Rick + hunters = hunters die But who's next to fall? Good question. I would guess the following have immunity (from the writers) at this point: Rick Carl Michonne Daryl Glenn Maggie Not quite immune, but I would guess that Carol, Tyrese, and Beth should be around for awhile. If I had to guess the next one to go, I suppose it would be Bob and/or Sasha. Your thoughts?
