Assault weapons ban picks up steam in Congress
Here are two articles today on Trump's 'commitment' to the 2nd Amendment. The first from National Review, and the second from Ammoland. The NR article cautions him against following in the footsteps of G. H. W. Bush, along with a history lesson reminding us how far out of 2A bounds that 'Republican' went. And what it cost him.

Active shooter in Philly
Here's an article demonstrating the misdirection now under way (again) by the progressives. Don't review our performance; just blame legal gun owners and take their firearms.

Active shooter in Philly
I had to laugh. A male reporter on Fox 29 was on with 'new information' early yesterday evening. One of the new items was that the rifle had been identified as an "AK-15". I rewound that several times to make sure I got it right. I'm a stickler for detail.

Active shooter in Philly
I'll be waiting to see if there's any reporters with balls left in Philadelphia. There's a news conference tomorrow with the mayor, chief, probably the DA, and Wolf. Wolf has already announced 'sweeping new executive actions' on 'gun safety'. Translation: gun control. They should all be put on the hot seat and have their gun control crap thrown back in their faces.

Active shooter in Philly
The Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner is on TV right now explaining that this guy was on the street because system policies were followed and this was the result. He also explained that law enforcement is like medicine; it's all about risk management and sometimes you have a bad outcome. What a crock. He's looking very uncomfortable. And he should be.

Active shooter in Philly
I saw the live reports on this on 3 and 10 in Philly, and that's exactly what the reporters on scene said. The estimate of the unruly neighbors was around 2%.

Active shooter in Philly
Here's the gentleman's particulars. I wonder if Mayor Kinney will be 'mad' this guy was still running around. Or will he count on the current Soros-backed Philly DA to defend the shooter to the hilt?

Active shooter in Philly
A direct quote from Mayor Kenny on Fox 29 Philly: "I'm mad that the shooter has all that weaponry, all that firepower. But we'll deal with that another day." Mr. Mayor... Mr. Mayor... This was an arrest warrant being served at a known drug house for drug offenses. There's a total ban on these drugs at the Federal, state and local level. Why are there still drugs in your city that precipitate these kind of operations gone wrong?

M&P 2.0
You may find this post interesting. Scroll down and view the video on post #2. Also this quote from further down: "Some pistols are designed so the slide stop can be used as a release, the 1911 is a prime example. If you look at the slide stop or release on a 1911, especially the original design and not one of the custom levers, it is clearly designed to push DOWN and there is virtually no attempt to help the shooter push it up. The M&P is exactly the opposite, it is designed to push UP, not down, and the ambidextrous design is designed so you can push it up from either side, no attempt at all is made to make it easier to push down. In some of the owner's manuals, they vary somewhat, it says to pull the side to the rear, then push the slide stop down to unlock it, the key point there is that they tell you to pull the slide to the rear first, thus taking all the strain off the release."

Mikey Sherrill opinion piece on why we need an assault weapons ban
If anyone happens to be at one of her town halls or press conferences, please ask which branches of the service issue the AR-15 as a duty weapon.

M&P 2.0
KC: Since you were alert enough to flag that satirical article, I thought I'd check this out for you. I have a M&P 2.0 9mm full size. The slide lock 'lever' is definitely not the easiest to release and doesn't give your thumb much purchase, but I can do it with just my thumb. Have done it on the range. I haven't put more than 300 rounds through it, so I don't know if that's 'broken in'. But I don't remember any problem releasing the slide after I bought it. Here is one interesting thing though I did just discover. To check the slide lock I pulled out a dummy round and tried to insert it into the S&W 10 round magazine. And I couldn't! By habit at the range I always use a Mag-Lula loader, and I've never tried to manually insert a round. I'll have to play with this a little more, but I'm sitting at my desk with it and I can barely push the follower down at all, let alone get a round to insert!

Andy McCarthy's Book - Ball Of Collusion
Andy McCarthy released a new book yesterday: Ball Of Collusion. You can guess what it's about. Rush Limbaugh spent a lot of time on it yesterday. And there's an excerpt posted on National Review: Hillary Ruins The Plan. Having listened to Rush and read the excerpt, I'm posting this here because I agree with Rush: this is going to be an important book. There are several other very good ones already out analyzing the Democrat - Deep State plan to undermine the Trump presidency. But this book exposes the entire plot timeline all the way back to its roots in the Obama administration, and does it with simple narrative and not miles of legal and technical details. Read the excerpt to see what I mean. I know most everyone's drawn their own battle lines, and I don't expect this book to convert any hard core progressives. But it may convince those waffling in the middle, and at least accurately organize the entire timeline of this plot for those feeling confused or unconvinced. And yes, it was a plot. Plan A, and Plan B. I have posted this here for the widest exposure. I would appreciate comments that permit it to remain in this thread. It's not really your comments I seek. I just thought this book needed to be publicized.

Inheriting firearms in NJ?
Exactly what the Madison PD asked me when I went for my first permits back in the 1970's. Then, after several months of excuses why they still weren't ready, I finally said 'Let me speak to the chief". "Hold on a second..... OK, they'll be ready for pickup tomorrow." Now it's the 21st century. When we applied for our PA resident LTCFs we had a nice discussion with the sheriff's deputy about how screwed up NJ gun laws are. He just kept shaking his head in disbelief. "My cousin told me something about that, but I thought he had it wrong." So you're right, it's totally different in (most of) PA.

- Another Russian Nuclear Accident?
"But, if you're piling up radioactive waste - that will remain highly toxic and deadly for DECADES if not CENTURIES..." Or millennia. Or even epochs, eras and eons!- Another Russian Nuclear Accident?
I saw that too. The expected life of that 'mega tomb' is around 100 years. Then they'll have to do something again. Here's another little factoid. The active compounds in that reactor include U-238. The half life of U-238 is 4,500,000,000 years. So by the time the sun is dying and expands out to earth's orbit Chernobyl's reactor site will be half as deadly. I wonder if global warming will matter then?- Eagles!!!
Right. I'd like to see his package squeezed into a pair of those shorts. And strap on some breast enhancers under the top. Alternatively he could wear a plunging neckline and expose chest hair. If he has any.- Inheriting firearms in NJ?
OP: Re-read the statute quoted by W2MC. You are good to go. Just be sure to obey the transport laws as described above. As to the 'one officer', it never ceases to amaze me how little many police officers know about firearm laws in NJ. I have even had to correct several I know personally who apparently never read the statutes. Don't all these guys get any legal training and required reading at all? Sometimes it seems like it's "Here's your gun. Here's your badge. Now GO!" Qualifier: yes, I do know officers who are well informed. Apparently they decided to do some non-required reading on their own time.- Daily humor thread
