Usually I'd agree, but honestly considering Fast and Furious, and the all-too-soon UN small arms treaty, I really wouldn't be surprised. I certainly hope so. Nothing hotter than a girl who can catch an RPG between her thighs.

3,000 feet down? I knew you were a diver like my brother in law (though he rearely goes more than 30 feet I believe), but what, specifically do you do? That is scary as shit to me, I'm too scared of the ocean to do that haha.

Here's something that basically points out some things about the recent shooting that I've been asking myself, and before you say it's too crazy, let's not forget Fast and Furious. One of the most important facts, how does an unemployed college student buy all the equipment he had, and so quickly? I work two jobs, almost 70 hours a week, and it takes me a few months to save up for a new gun. http://www.naturalnews.com/036536_James_Holmes_shooting_false_flag.html Honestly, I kind of felt this was sort of fishy, especially since this event, unlike other previous ones, was really the one that the media has been hounding and using to push for stronger gun control. Not to mention the upcoming UN treaty...

I deal with hundreds a day. Fortunately, they die off this time of year. My boss's house is about 300 feet from the bay (marsh) and since he's selling his house eventually, I'm re-painting it for him. I nearly fell off a 15 foot ladder the other day swatting one, and I have 20-some welts a couple weeks ago. But the "OFF!" Deep woods spray works, I've actually found a few that work pretty well. But good stuff, glad that Dragonfly killed the bastard, God knows the frogs in my bosses pond aren't XD.

That's what I wasn't sure about. Good call Thanks!

Well I have to admit I'm glad it's just another dumbass, and not a politician (Oh.. wait those are the same let me correct myself.) I was worried, reading this thread title, that they were going after our already strict AWB, which has done so much to stem the crime in Camden, and Atlantic City.

I wasn't sure if they had something like that pivot for scopes. Perhaps it's stupid to assume that. I was planning on putting folding irons on, so I figured if they have pivots like that for scopes, then I could switch it relatively quickly. Then again I don't know if such an action would damage a scope or what.

I'm not sure, we basically just bought the first thing we saw at Dick's. They were the rounded bowl-like ones if that makes any difference. Not sure if it's good for a first timer, but since we were using my friend's hunting shotguns we only had three shells per, I was usually able to get two pigeons with three shots when I tried that. I was actually almost as good as my friend who has been doing this since he was 10 XD.

I got a really good deal on an upper from JSE surplus, had it NJ neutered and all there (well, not quite I suppose, needed to cover the barrel threads). Not to mention their shipping was fast as hell, and they have a good selection. I then just bought a stripped lower, and put the whole thing together myself with a lower parts kit. When it was all said and done, I think I spent around $700.

...Is it weird I can aim on most iron sights without closing my eyes? Also, I wanted to ask some advice, since I'm about to buy some sort of sight for my AR. I'm leaning more towards getting a scope at the moment, but I don't want to break the bank, and also I was wondering what a person does if they have a scope on their rifle, but need to use in in closer quarters if something happens. Does anyone know how you get around this problem? Also, if anyone has any recomendations on brands, models, and such things, PM me

Nahh, Pump is ideal for me, I don't want to spend a lot, honestly, I wouldn't mind going to a gun show and picking up a used shotgun. I really don't care haha.

I didn't shoot that yesterday, I'm going to see what's different with that model. I know I shot an 870 Express Magnum, and the 870 specialized for bird hunting (forgot the exact name) as well as some other shotgun (which I forgot). I actually liked the bird hunting one the best, but I'm a sucker for wood stocks

With recent events, I'm sure most of you are pretty bummed, and perhaps just as worried as I am that we will lose our rights. But this thread isn't about that, it's more upbeat. I finally went skeet shooting yesterday. My friend and I have been saying we were going to do it for over a year now, and we finally got around to it, and I have to say, it was a ton of fun! Coinicidentally, for those that know about my car accident, The other driver's insurance company will give me $3200 for my car (after salvage fee removed) and I won't need a salvage title, so I'll get it fixed for about $1,000, and have another $,2000 to save for a new car down the road. But after yesterday, I'm thinking I may get a Remington 870 Express, or Mossberg 500 for myself XD. Oh, and for those who are curious, I didn't do too bad either, I never was really into shotguns before yesterday, but boy that was one hell of a fun time!

Sooo.... what is the gun community doing to reverse these negative associations with firearms ownership and nut-jobs? What are we doing to prevent the current situation from being twisted and used to deny us our freedoms? Or are we just going to wait it out and hope nothing happens. Not saying I know the best way to handle this situation, but I'm not quite sure silence is the way to go...

I have a feeling this could very well be the end of our RKBA as we know it. It seems like this event more than any other is already generating a huge shitstorm. I anticipate Obama saying something within the next 48 hours, and this being used to strengthen support for the UN treaty, particularly if it was an AK47 being used. They'll spin it to the angle that it was a foreign gun brought in, and that they need to stop this by ratifying the treaty.

...Dammit, now I want a Mini-14 again. I heard they can really take a beating, run dirty, and all that stuff. I was REALLLLLYYY close to buying one, but all the shops in my area were selling them for the price at which I could build an AR, which is why I ended up doing that.

...Just in time for the UN treaty!

By the way guys, What is the ideal, and proper way for lubing an AR? Where should it be lubed, and all of that stuff?

I think the most concerning thing is that this would even be considered. Here in NJ compliance would be expected, but AZ, TX, NH, and all of the south, you REALLY think they'd allow for that? Remember to send in your blank checks to the NRA!

And here is my car (my camera in my phone is crappy, please forgive the quality)

Honestly, I would think an introduction to it, what it is, and explain to them to stay away from them and stuff would be good. I know I learned (to many, Ironically) safe handling of firearms and stuff from airsoft. In game of course, we'd shoot each other ( depending on distance, too close and you call a "safety" so you don't hurt them at close range). Anyway, I learned how to properly handle them during set-up for games, never to point them at anything I didn't want to destroy, to always ensure they're unloaded, and to have the safety on, things like that. I plan on teaching my niece/goddaughter when she's old enough. My brother in law, who owns a gun, thinks 8 is a bit young, but he's waiting on her to get interested, I imagine he'll eventually teach her to respect them (Currently it's not where she can get it, and the magazine is kept away from the gun.)

I know that I learned at my new job that if the bottom of the fridge gets too dusty, it can screw with the condenser, and prevent it from being cold. One of the first things I'd try would be to somehow be able to REALLY get all the dust and crap out from under there.

What's ammo? You mean I don't hold a gun by the barrel and beat people with it? Man, I'm so bad with these whole gun things ...I thought that's why everyone liked Mosins.

Best thing is that if you start getting pissed off and hollering, they say they feel "threatened" and next thing you know a TSA agent is shoving a night stick up your bum.

Damn, I was hoping you'd be able to see the yellow sign on the side taht had the name of the driving school, well whatever. Apparently my boss took this picture for me, Also, their car was smoking a little bit out of the engine. If I ever have some time where I'm not working, I'll post some pictures of my car for comparison. This is their car, by the way.
