A good rust preventative? I can think of a good one... http://www.midwayusa.com/product/267557/tipton-cosmoline-rust-preventative-12-oz

I haven't seen any real price changes or shortages myself. Then again, I don't shoot super-popular calibers that could have a "run" go on them. The price of 30-06 and .303 British is pretty consistent lol!

That is the wrong avenue of approach to solving what the politicians want to fix. That is why they are getting such flak. Such a measure is a knee-jerk reaction at best. The best way to solve that particular issue is to tighten up the standards by which citizens are approved for licenses, as well as re-testing every so often for the entire population. Educate the public as to the proper methods of operating motor vehicles, and accidents simply must fall accordingly. Look at Germany as an example (though not to be applied directly to any State in the U.S.A.!). The testing procedures and fees associated with obtaining a driver's license is among the most strict in the world. Penalties for poor driving are also very high. The result is that German drivers are very capable at controlling their vehicles, so much so that Germany has had the Autobahn for decades, in which there are sections which have no speed limit whatsoever. You can only have such roads if the drivers on those roads are very well trained.

A much more interesting and intriguing question than the current discussion in this thread is related to this statement. Why is it that a cop is perceiving that the public "mostly hate [him]" in his own words? What has caused this? Is public perception towards cops mostly negative, and if so, what has caused such ire? If I had the time and inclination, I do believe that I could easily pen a lengthy study of the above questions. Too bad I'm not a social historian, hah! The causes for the reasons behind such strong perceptions are no doubt myriad and complex. I'd wager that the more the civil enforcers (police) are despised and hated by the populace as a whole in any given society, the less "free" that society becomes. It is inversely proportionate. What might such a crude and uninformed hypothesis show if applied to America? I fear that this nation is becoming more draconian as of late.

I'd rub off that surface rust with some fine steel wool, like 00 or 000. That '34 you have is very dry, you might want to strip it down and give all the steel parts a good oiling as well, to prevent more rust from cropping up. The finish on these rifles works best with a boundary layer of oil on them, similar to the service arms of other nationalities.

Normal. The Soviets didn't build their rifles to function smoothly. Beat the crap out of it, it'll work better. Like junkmanted stated, clean your chamber if the bolt is sticking. There's likely cosmoline in there gumming up the works.

Oh! Well that's a bit different.

I call mine the names they were given by the manufacturer. Same with my vehicles. Some folks seem to need to attach names to the things they own. I don't share that peculiar trait.

Haha guess what? I just got a jury summons notice for the local courthouse. Grand juror notice, can take up to 14 weeks it says. Welp, I've talked the talk, time to walk the walk! I'll probably get dismissed anyways, but I wouldn't mind seeing a real trial. My schedule is actually pretty open.

See, I really don't consider it to be shirking your duty if your family will starve as a result. That would be pretty extreme if you had to serve with that being the outcome. If only every jury had a Henry Fonda, the U.S. would be that much better.

Well, you should have the same sentiments towards milsurp firearms produced during any of the wars. Personally, I wouldn't mind having a "throwaway".

Watch 12 Angry Men sometime. The whole thing is on youtube. Fascinating stuff, and exemplifies the exact reasons why good, honest men and women should not buck out of jury duty. http://youtu.be/s0NlNOI5LG0 I myself have never been called to jury duty, but would serve if called. This is one duty that is required of American citizens, and no one should try to shirk their duty.

The trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money. - Margaret Thatcher.

Boy, they sure don't like it when their own shitty laws are used against them!

Dude, if you don't have $20 for a set of punches, maybe you should re-examine your financial situation? I'm not trying to sound like a dick, but that sounds like a big red flag to me.

You must live in a dreamworld where cops are not human, and therefore are infallible. Truth of the matter is, there are good ones, and there are bad ones. This is the same with every job segment in society. You have good workers, and bad ones. To the OP: There's no way they can just rampantly search you without either a warrant, or some sort of probable cause. The 4th Amendment still exists. Use it.

Farmers are just plain friendly in general, from my experience.

Put the capitol in Salem or Ocean counties, and that's a sure-fire thing.I think the rampant gun-hating and fear-mongering that goes on with NJ politics emanates from the influence of NYC culture on north jersey. There is none of that down here in the south at all. All of the people I have met from living down here either don't care, or own firearms themselves.

Catholic Church banned the crossbow as a weapon of mass destruction, too. Very deadly weapon.....in 1139 AD!

The whole thing smacked of being from a northerner's point of view. South Jersey is pretty much dominated culturally by Philly. Not much description of that was presented. South Jersey should be its own state, really. Completely different culture than the north.

I enjoy the Phily Diner & Sports Bar as well as House of Brews. Both are on the Black Horse Pike, in Runnemede and Turnersville, respectively. Might not count as "central" though, LOL

I want to move deep into Pennsylvania myself. I have actually encountered the use of the Jersey Parkway to indicate relative distance, so I can affirm that. I myself don't use that road at all. 295 and 55 is what I usually use. Also, deep South Jersey around the Tuckahoe area and south of that is pretty much the Alabama version of NJ. They hate northerners. If you can fit in with hicks, you'll do fine.

You give criminals too much credit. I doubt many of them have the patience as well as the intelligence to assemble any of these LEGO creations. Besides, they can get real guns on the black market cheap enough.

Flyers haven't been getting it done the professional way, so they might as well try to win the bare-knuckle way. With Giroux out on that BS suspension, there's gotta be a whole lot of pent-up aggression to facilitate that kind of play.

Go Flyers. They're getting curb-stomped though. Bad news bear. I didn't even know the Devils even had fans until watching this series. The more you know.
