Thanks for the offer, but I don't have the cash for an M1. All my extra cash is going into my AR build. When my neighbor told me about the CMP, he made it sound like they basically teach people how to shoot. That's what I thought it was.

Despite having once worked in a theater for a year and a half, I don't watch a lot of movies. That being said, here are a few I've watched a ton of times. Rear Window- I've seen it like, 20 times, but I always see stuff I've never noticed before. Still a great movie Zombieland- Perhaps my favorite movie of all time. Plus, at parts, it's like gun porn. Kickass- Another great movie I have seen a ton of times, it still cracks me up Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist- Yes. It's more of a girl's movie, but I still like it. All the Harry Potters Most of the Bond movies. Definitely the Connery and Broslin eras. The ones from teh 90s and newer, I don't really care much for them. (Well, haven't seen them, so I suppose I shouldn't say that.) Revenge of the Nerds

The point is not, necessarily what to do when in a car. Someone tried getting in my car when I was on my way to Rowan's Camden campus, and I did choose to floor it. However, let's change the situation where this woman was just about to get into the car with her kids, or was otherwise outside the vehicle. When you're not surrounded by a 5,000lb metal shell capable of going 100mph, it's a different ballgame. Distance may be key, but unless you're the Flash, you're not getting outside of that 21 foot range faster than a bullet. Personally, I think we should find out (read, prove) this guy had a gun illegally, and then raise a huge crap-storm about illegal gun ownership, and be very vocal at our surprise that he was able to get a gun when our state is so strict on "gun crime".

HahaI think for those purposes 10-12 M1s a year is essentially unlimited. I mean, I think most people's wallets are too limited to make that many purchases haha.

I was actually expecting the story to be about her being arrested for carrying a lawful weapon illegally, after using it to defend herself. Then again, they'll never come out and say whether the perp's gun was legal, which I doubt it was. I'm sure the politicians will cite this as an example of how the citizens don't need weapons to defend themselves.

That's more or less why I'm trying to build my upper first. I've been slowed down a bit trying to find out if particular barrels (and other parts) are 1) Jersey legal, and 2) compatible with one another.

I was under the impression that the CMP was a program to teach civilians how to shoot better. Once you completed the training, then you could purchase an M1. I figured I'd use it as an opportunity to work on my marksmanship. Guess I was wrong haha.

I've been meaning to ask both of these questions for a while now, but I keep forgetting. First one- Since my summer vacation is coming up, I was thinking about doing the CMP, but I'm not sure where I'd have to travel to (I live in Camden County), how much it is, WHEN it is, etc. I just think it would be a fun thing for me to do over the summer if I have the time. Also, for Gunsmithing. I've considered getting into it in the event that I don't get into dental school, or can't get a job with my bio degree. What do you have to do to become one? Is there good money in it? Etc. Etc. Oh, and while I'm thinking about it, shipping AR parts, if I were to put something on the marketplace looking for upper parts (barrel, action, etc. ) what is the legality of having those shipped? Thanks for clarifying stuff for me.

Not a bad deal. Or you can go with an M69 Romanian training rifle. I highly recommend the Savage MKII as well. I have one, but I'm not interested in selling it. But yeah, I figured I'd make the recommendation.

Can you guys post links to these articles and things? I want to read up on thew newest stuff to come out.

I figured the firing pin. I guess there are a lot of factors that affect the life of the part, such as use, quality, cleaning, ammo used, etc.

Haha, well I'd get my AR, pay off school, like I said I really only have 2 REALLY close friends, and so I'd give them cash and probably give their families a little something. Maybe I'd open up a range, and an airsoft field, invest about $5mill, leave about $100 mill in the bank for interest, buy some properties to rent out. Of course donate to pro-2A campaigns. Hell, I'd probably give money to the Brady campaign's President to get him to run that group into the ground XD. Hmm... Well... I may also, depending on just HOW many members are on here, I'd probably give each and every (regular) poster like $25 to go get themselves some ammo and have fun haha.

I'd probably still work my near minimum wage job. I'd give some cash to my friends for "Hush" money (don't want anyone to know I won, if I had). Give a ton to NJ2AS, Some to the NRA, get myself a few new toys, pay off my mom's mortgage, give some to the family, etc.

Since I'm trying to build an AR, and considering putting up a WTB (Depending on legality of shipping uppers, barrels, stocks, etc. I think only the lower can't be shipped). I was wondering, what are basic replacement parts someone should have for an AR, and what are their lifespans?

Or looting a Walgreens haha.

I understand that, like, I personally don't care for political activist celebs. However, it's totally different when you give out someone's address when their life is in danger. Like, that's essentially being an accomplice to murder really. Of course, he'll get away scott-free.

20" Barrels are pretty dry from my experience, as are A3 flat top uppers. They're out there, but you have to scrounge, and it seems as though the demand has shot up the price... Well, I was planning to apply to work at a gun store over the summer, I need another job since the Christian gift store is extremely slow, and hours get cut pretty bad. And honestly, I think it is a job I'd have a ton of fun with, and I'd learn even more about guns.

Can someone provide me a link to the closeups? I want to show that to the doubters.

In Stratford(and Laurel Springs) a few nights ago I heard a woman screaming for help, and a guy yelling at her. They must have known each other because he kept saying he was sorry, I thought about checking it out to see if the woman was okay, but then again, I didn't want to risk anything... It is getting kind of bad around here, and everyone I talk to agrees it's the spill-off from the apartments around here.

Doesn't surprise me one bit, Hell, I don't know why people are buying the guns though. I would be shocked if Obama didn't try to ban all guns in a second term. They'll have spent all that money for nothing... Then again, I've been trying to build an AR, and A LOT of parts are sold out. Not sure if it's the fact they're selling fast, or simply because they're not "tacti-cool" but 20" AR barrels are out of stock in most websites.

HEY! I live in Stratford, my fence divides Stratford and Laurel Springs actually, let's go to a range sometime!

Hey, not sure if this has been posted yet, but the riots are coming. It's started. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfGc3JWHzko

Meh, I mean, it's more work, but I've just been doing Cost/benefit analysis of various AR uppers. I'm picky as hell since I'm not a HUGE AR fan anyway, but I've narrowed it down. Main problem is finding a 20" barrel that's not a bull barrel, but someone on the forums sent me a link to a nice one. As it stands now, I just want an A3 flat top upper, 20"barrel, fixed stock, complete lower, and some sort of compensator (The barrels look horrible with just the screw end on the front). Oh, and a 12" M4 style rail.

Damn. Just imagine if this happened in NJ. Haha, with NJ's laws you could probably be shot first, and still be given trouble if you killed your attacker.

I've called the police when I saw suspicious activity in my neighborhood. Our power was out for 4 days in a row, no streetlamps, phones, or anything (well, on OUR half of the street, right around a bend in the street they were fine.) But after about two days word got around we were without power, and people started breaking into cars in our area. Hell, I came pretty close to calling the police last night when I heard a woman screaming for help, and a guy yelling. IIRC it was 2AM. I didn't bother going out to see what was happening because of this case. As far as I'm concerned, with all the flak Z has been getting, if that woman was being attacked, it's her fault, I'm not risking my a** to help anyone.
