looking for an affordable red dot for beretta cx4 storm
I second / third the Primary Arms micro dot. I love mine. It appears to be very high quality for the price, and is one of the brightest and clearest I've ever seen. I'm sure it's not as long term durable as the aimpoint, but side by side there is very little difference out of the box.

Uhh, earthquake?
It was a little freaky here in center city Philly. People flooding out of the skyscrapers into the streets. We're all back to work now. (or at least 'working' like me)

What's fun to shoot?
I like plastic easter egg style shells filled with talc or flour. They are fun to shoot. Also, paint balls glued to a board or a target.

Gearhog and USA Ammo Issues
My order arrived yesterday too. I've never had any problems with their 9mm in the past. I'm going to try it out tonight at the range.

Good Deal on S&B 9mm Ammo
I've seen the 'in person / cash' discount usually come out to $20 off the top, and then 3% discount for cash. The only downside is that you have to pay state sales tax.

Gearhog and USA Ammo Issues
mine hasn't shipped yet, and I made the purchase quickly. Also, i've noted that since then the Gearhog deals have been kind of disappointing. I was expecting more along the lines of the USA Ammo deal, where it's a gift cert to a particular store with a great savings. It seems like coupons for one specific undesirable or overpriced item or in a specific caliber...which isn't very useful in my opinion.

Major KB with Reman USAmmo
is there any more info on the second KB at the Pennsylvania range? This is putting me off that company's products forever...even their 9mm.

saiga 7.62x39 sight crooked
My Saiga 5.45 was slightly canted too. Like Vlad suggests, I too was able to use the ak/sks sight tool and still zero it in by drifting the front pin a good distance. I can still get 2-2.25" groups at 100 yds, which is better than I had expected. I don't mind having the sight pin closer to one side as long as it's accurate. If I can save up for a good red-dot..then it won't matter to me at all.

Carbine Combative video from Chris Fry on PDN
A well trained front heel kick, or muay thai 'teep' kick is also a great option in place of the 'Ram' to aid in weapon retention.

Gearhog and USA Ammo Issues
I took the deal and used the shipping code too. Since I ordered the once fired 9mm, I was able to get 500 rounds shipped without paying any extra. This will be the third time I've ordered from Usa Ammo, and so far I've been pleased with them. I've used their 115gr 9mm and their .223 55 gr, and been happy with both of them. This was the cheapest ammo deal I've ever seen.

Shooting Daily Deals Site - GearHog - $100 gift cards to cabelas and brownells
Is there a such thing as having too much ammo? Because I just bought a case of 9mm, and you can get another 500 rounds or so with this deal (in 9mm).

FL requiring drug tests for welfare
So, you would sterilize those you find socially less desirable or worthy? A few regimes in the world have had that policy in the past..

FL requiring drug tests for welfare
I'm always the odd man out in these discussions... but I disagree with this policy. My initial thoughts were that poor children may now suffer even further since their already drug addicted mother now cannot obtain government assistance. I know other trustees may receive the funds in lieu of the individual failing the drug screen. These people may not have anyone else that is drug free or able to be trusted to receive the funds. Second, Why would any of us be excited about a precedent that requires government invasion into the very body of a citizen? It's a precedent that I will never support. Financial status should NEVER be cause to allow for a government search of your person or such a serious invasion of privacy. What's next? Want a student loan...get a drug test. Want an FHA mortgage, get a drug test. Want your social security benefits...? I'll never support an idea like this, while I am of course against people spending welfare on drugs.

First gun you would buy... if you lived in a free state?
my choice may not be as exciting as some, but I would get a full auto supressed .22. I've seen videos of a few that sound quieter than a staple gun.

Locked Box in Locked Trunk
Most NJ police departments actually have a written consent form that they will ask you to sign when agreeing to a vehicle search. Do not sign the document, as it gives consent to a full search of the vehicle and all of the containers within. I understand that your question is purely hypothetical, but if you agree to a search of any kind you are opening a 'can of worms' that will never benefit you. If there is probable cause upon the stop for a vehicle search, the police will not ask for consent. Although there is no case law that I am aware of in NJ on the matter, officers may check weapons for their own safety. Clearly, the weapon is inaccessbile if it is in a locked box in the trunk...but I do wonder if a court would uphold that during a legally valid search that an officer can open a locked firearms case to inspect whether or not the weapon is loaded. I did a quick search in westlaw and didn't find anything directly on point.

Ciener .22lr conversion kits
I found a .22lr conversion kit for the beretta 92 from Ciener. Has anyone here tried this particular one, or ones for other guns such as the 1911? I need a lot of practice, and a .22 conversion seems like a great economical way to do it. Thanks

Locked Box in Locked Trunk
Of course it's recommended to not consent to the search... but you can consent to a limited search. This also isn't a good idea though as it can give the officer view of something giving rise to probable cause for further search, arrest / search incident to arrest, etc. So, you can say 'go ahead and look but don't open the box',but that will NOT end well.
