He is allowed. He phrased his questions so that they would apply to non-LEO members of this message board as well, so he could get their input as well.

My rifles only hold 5 rounds. So yeah, I load to capacity. With stripper clips.

Not necessarily. There are two kinds of laws, just, and unjust. Do not defend nor follow unjust and unconstitutional laws, for they are null and void.

Good for him! The only way we will ensure our rights is to use them. Intimidation with deadly force by police is a terrible thing.

Private property rights fall into play here. That's why I made mention of store/land ownership separately, as it is common for businesses to be leased.

I buy mostly off of www.sgammo.com , and they ship directly to my door. Rifle, pistol, doesn't matter.

You likely should have the owner's permission, in writing. Maybe both the store owner, and the land owner (not always the same person).

I doubt the private establishments are doing it for primarily that reason, and also for that reason alone. Being on the "good" side of the PD is useful, but its more advantageous to be inside the "good 'ole boy" network if that's the angle you're trying to play, as a business owner. Keeping underage drinkers out of their establishments is a likelier reason, as you can get your club/bar/whatever fined and/or shut down if caught serving alcohol to minors. So the thinking on the part of the bar owners is, "hey, why not let the local cops check ID's if they want? That way, if they let a fake one through that later gets caught by an undercover BATFE or State Police agent, I have a solid defense in court." Hence why such things happen. CYA to the maximum degree.

Some people name their cars too. I never understood it. I refer to inanimate objects by their name, I don't create a "pet name" for them.

I didn't even notice anything going on. WD is nice and quiet over by my house.

Arguing with a lawyer is a bad idea, they do it for a living!

Go read the book More Guns, Less Crime by John Lott. Plenty of statistics in there for you to espouse.

Not a bad little car. I have a '90 LX myself with GT40 heads and an E-303 cam, among other things. I stuck with EFI, though. I find that it idles best at around 800-900RPM with the E-cam. Definitely doesn't sound right. Does sound like it's loading up. You might have to drop it down a couple jet sizes. A 650 isn't *too* big for a 306, but it's on the large side if it isn't tuned right. Are you gonna use a wideband, or tune it the old fashioned way?

Any store that carries mechanics tools should sell a pair. If you want quality, I suggest you look here: http://www.starrett.com/ I have a pair of their 0-6" dial calipers, and they are by far the highest quality measurement instrument I have ever had. Better than Snap-On, IMO.

As a mechanic who graduated from the Ford ASSET program at GCC, you really don't want a career in auto mechanics. Especially diesel. That crap is a bigger PITA. Do headgaskets on an E-Series with the 6.0L diesel and get back to me on how much you like to wrench! Hah!

Probably gotta get permission from your employer to carry on company property. Get it in writing too.

It is odd that you are "lost" on the Ron Paul bit. That kid is basically repeating what Ron Paul is stating in his book, End the Fed. I have read that book, and Ron Paul is RIGHT. He has been saying the same thing for decades, and only now are people starting to listen to him. Who predicted the 2007 market crash? Ron Paul did, in 2003. Nobody believed him then. They do now. Also, look into the origins of the term, "military-industrial complex". You'll find that it was originated by 5 star General of the Army (and later President) Eisenhower, in his farewell speech in 1960. That term references the special interest groups that have formed to back the various military contractors that provide arms and munitions to the U.S. Gov't, as well as exporting said arms and munitions to "friendly" nations. All for immense profits. These organizations make money off of war. It behooves them to keep their principal customer (U.S.A.) at war. Thus, there are special interest groups that put immense pressure on U.S. Representatives and Senators to vote to their gain.

That's where I got my 1926 Izhevsk Ex-Dragoon and my 1943 Izhevsk M91/30. I am going to get a M44 there sometime. They had a T53 (Chinese M44) in there last time I was there for $250. I should have picked it up, but want a true Communist Soviet carbine. Yours still has the M91 sling slots with screws, not the press-in M91/30 ones. That, along with the 1923 receiver shows that it was a Dragoon. During overhaul the Soviets swapped the newer sights onto it. If you can find the old M91 sights (not likely), you could raise the value of the rifle.

Good opportunity to go there and purchase a whole slew of firearms private party for WAYYY under market value, depending on the firearm...

HR 822 appears to be unconstitutional, violation of the 10th Amendment. Red herring legislation?

Pay to get it appraised first. If you just try and sell it at a gunshop, you'll take the first $100 offer that comes your way, when the pistol may be worth many times that.

Yup. Whatever happened to the whole concept of individual Liberty?

There's lies, Damned lies, And statistics. Statistics can be warped to promote any agenda you please. All it takes is careful preparatory work to get the "results" you wish for. I trust the rest of the Alphabet Soup agencies as much as the ATF. Not a damn bit!

Bingo. But you still run the risk of getting caught for a "crime" if someone witnesses the altercation.

Not really suited for ammo storage. Most drawers aren't deep enough. Also, all you need is a prybar to break the drawers open, so useless for securing anything of value (even Snap-On boxes aren't hard to break into).
