Sticker durability on ar15?
I was thinking of painting a German helmet, with a Kaiser Wilhelm mustache underneath. And also having an eagle carrying the German and US flags on mine, but I'm not sure what paint would be good. I know nothing of sticker design.

Broccoli Soup
Speaking of which, I wish we kind of did have a section on NJGF for recipies. I know it sounds weird, but I feel like the people here would likely not have some foo-foo, fancy ass, hard as hell to make food, but probably some pretty good stuff.

Broccoli Soup
Wow! I'll have to try this out. You seem fairly health conscious, so I probably shouldn't even bother posting the recipie I have for potato soup-- one of the ingredients is bacon grease, but it's so damn good!

Sticker durability on ar15?
What stickers are you planning on throwing on there? I've considered doing some artwork on my guns, but was never sure what paint would stick the best to the synthetic stocks.

What's your "Dream" gun?
Here's something else I'd like to have.

Foiled Terror Plot at NY FED
I'm just saying, there wasn't a need to pass a law that allows indefinite detention of US citizens, they're really overstepping the bounds of their power as outlined by the Constitution.

I'd rather not sacrifice my liberty for "security".

FiveseveN, love it but....
I assume that means you have it Paul? Actually, other than occasionally on the forums, I never see 5-7s for sale, anywhere.

Just because I'm curious, why are mini-14s so expensive?
Lol, maybe it is bargain basement, Wilson Arms upper, DPMS LPK, (I believe milsurp) stock, Brownell's buffer spring, I forget, maybe a brownell's buffer as well. Cheapest part was the Del-ton lower, but that was just because that was what was available at the time.

Well, pistols are a no-go for me, I'm only 20. I'll check the stuff out though.

Haha, yeah, I imagine the paranoia this event drummed up will be used to help justify more actions such as NDAA, and some of that other stuff.

Just because I'm curious, why are mini-14s so expensive?
I've wanted one for a long time, but I was able to build a nice AR for $700, which sort of made it a moot point, I wish I could have gotten one though. I tend to look for the newer ones with the heavier barrels, with wood stocks, and used, but I rarely find them. If I could find a used one in the ballpark of $300, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. The cost of 15 round magazines was one of the main reasons I didn't go with it easier, I knew after-market ones had reliability issues, and that compliant 15/20 mags were rare and expensive. The main reason I wanted to get a mini was because I had heard that, given the right mags, they have near AK-like reliability, and I absolutely love the barleycorn sights of the M14. Since there's now way I'll be able to afford an M1-A for a long time, I had hoped to get a mini-30 or mini14 in order to help satisfy that craving, to some extent.

What were some of the other guns you were looking to sell?
-

Maybe it's a chicken and the egg scenario? People aren't buying them because they aren't cheap, but they aren't cheap because no one's buying them?

What's your "Dream" gun?
I'd like a Sturmgewehr, but slightly modified for modern combat, IE- perhaps a rail system or something on the top. But I'd totally keep the wood furnature. That would be sick.

So I'm organizing a Rowan First-Shoot
We actually have most of the stuff straightened out, we will be holding it at SJSC, so that way we can include both rifles and handguns. We've even had a NJ2AS member volunteer to donate ammo and instruct. We're looking for more instructors though, depending on the turn out, which, I'm trying to get to be as big as possible, so get in contact with me. I'm actually in Bob's quite a bit, not having money, I worry I'm a bit of a pain, since I just window-shop and lament how I can't afford either an 870, mini-30, or winchester 94, but I have taken girls there to shoot my .22 rifle before. But yeah, part of it is that I'm not sure the students at rowan are going to hear about it, I have to think of better ways to get the word out.

So I'm organizing a Rowan First-Shoot
Well, for those who are interested, we fliered the campus regarding an interest meeting next Wenesday. Apparently it was supposed to be done by Tuesday, and again the Rowan Republicans didn't give me any information that they even had fliers, or an interest meeting scheduled. I'm a little pissed about this since I don't think it will be enough time to get a decent amount of people out there, but oh well, I'll just schedule another one, later on. Ironically, everyone in the Rowan Republicans **** about having too much on their plate, but won't even inform me about decisions they make about my event. What a PIA. Oh well, at least things are moving ahead.

Just because I'm curious, why are mini-14s so expensive?
Well then, how can they justify $600 for it? I mean it seems like an excellent $300-$450 gun. Maybe the manufacturing is more expensive? I really don't know.

Just because I'm curious, why are mini-14s so expensive?
I think they do contract out some of the work to American companies, since they then don't have the importation issues. Actually, if I had to wager, I'd say that one of top things we still manufacture here in America is firearms. I base this off of nothing, but it seems like we not only arm the world's militaries and polices, but just think of how many American gun companies we have, I know Ruger, Henry, and a few others still manufacture here. This I could see, I'm a hardcore M14 fanboy, I have no clue why, but I've been infatuated with that gun for about 7 years now or so, since I first heard about/saw it. I do believe they are in service in some nations, mainly in police roles and stuff, Actually, if I ever get one, I'd probably actually go with the mini-30, not that I need to add another caliber to the mix. Now, I had always heard the opposite, that they were reliable as hell, except if you used steel-cased ammunition. But I heard they could take a beating almost to the level an AK could. I think a lot of the animosity towards ARs (and I was an AR-hater until recently) wasn't so much the plastic, but the small round, and the reliability issues.

Arsenal SLR 101 SG
I say throw it in some salt water, get a little more rust on it. The more screwed up an AK looks, the better.

Just because I'm curious, why are mini-14s so expensive?
Granted, I'm no expert on them, but I do like them quite a bit, but I'm sort of curious why they would have them around the same price as a less expensive AR, I mean, at that point it doesn't make sense to get a mini14, mags (well, NJ legal) aren't that easy to come by, parts aren't as cheap as AR parts, they aren't as accurate... I'm just rather confused why they cost so much, I think they're awesome, but I feel like they could perhaps be sold at a lower price.

Can't believe it happened to me
Perfect! I'm a broke college student, so I can just take those off your hands! XD

If your collection is that much of a problem, then let me know, I'll take some stuff off your hands!

FiveseveN, love it but....
I have no clue what handgun I would get. I'm really not that much of a handgun person, I tend to prefer long-guns, but I'm pretty sure I'd love to shoot them as well.
