It's not that he stands up for injustices for blacks, it's that he views EVERYTHING as an injustice against african americans. And the Evening news isn't pro-white! The news media is the one making a big deal about this story, but ignoring these... http://www.theblaze.com/stories/update-cops-say-attacks-at-wis-state-fair-will-not-be-prosecuted-as-hate-crimes/ http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2012/03/05/teenager_attacked_you_get_what_you_deserve_white_boy http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/top-stories/da-black-teens-wont-face-hate-crime-charges.html http://www.therightperspective.org/2011/07/19/nypd-will-not-probe-anti-white-beating-as-hate-crime/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsqoFi0WCB4 All of this is terrible, but to act as though hate is not present on both sides of the equation, and that we get equal representation is silly.

Hmm... I usually vote based on the NRA's guide, though typically their recommendations are candidates I'd support anyway.

I mentioned those other cases because you were thankful for the Good Reverand Sharpton. Yet he was mysteriously absent from these other hate crimes. He could easily have used his influential position in the African American community to denounce such actions. Yet he was silent.....As was the media.....

I don't think every time the race card is played it's truly dealt. What about a few years ago when that woman got upset because a flight attendant said "eenie, meanie, meiny, moe, pick a seat, we have to go"? The woman who was taking a long time to take her seat was black, and accused the flight attendant of being racist because the original version of that rhyme uses another word instead of "Tiger". And Sharpton doesn't fight for the civil rights of all, nor does he denounce racism on other peoples. What about the black panthers offering 10K for Z's capture? Ironic your signature is "I would rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6!" When you're so quick to condemn someone who may be innocent, and may, actually have been defending himself in the first place.

Usually the batteries are hardly any weight at all. I use Lithium polymer batteries, which probably don't even weigh an ounce. It's the metal bodies that add the weight, and possibly the motor, (which in that gun, is located in the pistol grip) That was part of the reason I never got one off the internet, nothing matched what i wanted, and i doubted that they would make one or whatever. I figured what you saw was what you got.

Yeah, it's fairly heavy. Most people when they think of airsoft think of the cheap, crappy plastic spring guns. For whatever reason, I prefer heavier rifles. Most of the things I prefer on a gun are heavier too, for example, wood, fixed stocks, longer rails, things like that. Lol, when I have my full kit on it, it's about 12-13 lbs (Even airsoft M203s are pretty heavy haha). What is CMMG?

Wagering a guess without weighing, about 9-10.5 lbs.

The irony of it is, the gun I pictured, my main airsoft gun, I've been using that for years now. Though it can get a little heavy after an 8 hour day, I'm more used to handling the longer rifle than short ones. I'd go for an 18" barrel too I suppose if I can find the low-profile gasblock. I personally like the flip-up sights you can put on them, though I'm not sure if they have to come with the rifle, or are added later.

This is more or less why I'm building this whole darn thing from scratch. I've been trying, if possible, to find an upper that doesn't have the front post-sight, the big triangular one. Oh, and I just checked, I never knew this, but A&A is only about 8 miles from me.

It's partially looks, partially a conception (potentially wrong) that a longer barrel=better range ( I know that's true, but not sure if that makes a difference), and also I don't care for shorter weapons, the way they feel and such. To put it in perspective, if the gun, and ammo were the same price, I'd likely get an M1A. But, I know ARs are more versatile.

I want a longer rifle.the 16" is the M4 length, isn't it?

Cool! I've at least heard of Waterford, so it's a bit of a drive, but not like places like Monmouth are and stuff.

Do you remember a ballpark for labor? Also, where are they located? I'm Camden County, and it seems like practically no places are near me. Aside from Winter's but he seems more specialized in older stuff. I'd have to ask him haha.

Yeah, originally I'd asked a guy from Gun for Hire to build it for me. Just for parts the upper would have been $600-700, not including the additional $175 assembly fee. I asked what parts they intended to use, and he said Stag, DD, etc. When I asked if there was any way he could think of to lower the cost, I never heard back, hence why I'm looking for someone else to build the upper.

Range rifle, and SHTF really. Probably should go with an AK for SHTF, but my idea is if I build it for accuracy and range, I could likely still use it for closer engagements. I suppose that if someone broke in, it would be my default HD gun until I buy a shotgun too.

Any particular maker you would recommend that's good quality at a good price? Also, would it be smarter to order a kit and assemble the lower, or to order all the parts individually? What about the upper though?

Thanks. It's still a few guns away (AR build, then Shotgun, then lever). I want to get a levergun down the road, but wasn't sure if I should go .30-.30, or .357, I figured ammo for the latter would be easier to find.

Like I said in another thread, National CCW bill comes up, this happens, it's a media cream-dream. THAT's why this got to be such a big deal, and THAT's why they WONT report stuff like this. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2119615/Trayvon-Martin-case-Anonymous-witness-claims-teen-attacked-killer-George-Zimmerman-fatal-shooting.html Notice the black panthers offering 10K for Z's capture.

That's why I'm building one. I haven't found a complete upper (NJ legal anyway) that I like.

Howdy, I finally saved up a little cash, and am finally going to go through with my AR build, or so I hope. First question is this, should I buy the lower first, or have the upper built? It sounds weird (go ahead and make fun of me, but my AR will be based off an airsoft gun, so I can cross train). Here is the picture of (Essentially) what I want in my AR. Anyway, basically I want a 20" barrel ( picked out the Bushmaster Predator barrel), fixed stock, rail, and flat top. If anyone has any suggestions of parts, or who could build it at a good price, let me know. I'm from South Jersey (Camden County) I need it built for me because quite frankly, I lack the tools (and know-how) to do it myself. I don't even have a vice, which I know is important for installing the barrel. I was planning on attaching the upper and lower myself, however. Any advice is appreciated.

Seems like awfully convenient timing... National CCW law comes up, some guy does something bad that OBVIOUSLY is not protected by the law, but gets protected anyway.... Tin foil hat time... Although, then again, after Fast and Furious, could anything really be beyond the realm of possibility?

Henry produces in NJ? Do they have any .357 leverguns? I'd like to buy American down the road. (I have quite a line of guns I want to buy haha)

Hmm... I like that idea, however I would have just sold the bike, may as well get a little money and treat yourself for some A+ parenting.

That is exactly what I heard is happening. Of course, the link I read it from was, if i remember correctly, to some newspaper. Most likely that was just leftists trying to frighten their supporters into thinking the gun-guys were arming for something. Although, I know that because of me, at least two of my friends are in the process, or planning to get their FID, and after taking my friend, Midget, shooting, she wants to get one down the road (and I BELIEVE her mother may be wanting to pick something up as well.) I was thinking more on the National Level, I doubt I'd be able to find stats that simply single out NJ gun sales. What do you mean, Cemetary Bob, about "2A rights not on the radar.... as witnessed a few years ago on this very forum"? What happened a few years ago. I will agree with you. I know many people who own hunting firearms, and who don't realize just how strict NJ is. Growing up, I had been told you can only OWN a shotgun in NJ, which, only a few years ago did I find out that was false.

I've been wondering about this lately. Most of you should know that the firearm industry has been booming lately. If you don't, this thread discusses it ( http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/33946-ruger-cant-keep-up-with-demand/ ) Anyway, I've been wondering if this is a good thing, or a bad thing in terms of 2A rights. On the surface, more guns seems to indicate more people familiar with them, and who are interested in protecting 2A rights. But, at the same time, I worry that higher gun sales, particularly coupled with the current anger with the government, may cause politicians to really get worried about the populace being armed. I'm worried that huge sales figures will prompt Washington to push for tighter controls. Lately we've had some successes, with states passing CC laws and such, and I haven't heard of too much anti-gun legislation lately. I just wanted to know what you guys think. Perhaps I'm missing something?
