Visualizing the rise and fall of ammo prices
Of course. But it's 50% less than it was two months ago. IF you could find it. Look, nothings normal yet. But it's coming down, for now.

Visualizing the rise and fall of ammo prices

Visualizing the rise and fall of ammo prices
My last retail bulk buy was 10mm at .31/round in April 2020. Interestingly I bought 1K 9mm at .16/round privately in August. Just a lucky connection, and an excellent deal. So it's been almost a year for me. But on the other hand we've shot less than 1K round in that 12 months, cause COVID. So I'm not exactly burning up my inventory.

Visualizing the rise and fall of ammo prices
TSUSA has Blazer 9mm 124 gr for .50/round. Still too high, but much better than .80 if you really need some. And they have 99+ cases of it. Note: Oh, here we go. SG Ammo has it at 41.5/round, shipping included. Competition! https://www.sgammo.com/product/cci-ammo-sale/1000-round-case-9mm-luger-cci-blazer-brass-124-grain-fmj-ammo-5201

I hope they run it like Office 265. $5/month and they send you a new firearm. That's a subscription I would pay for.

Daily humor thread
An assistant to Nancy Pelosi told her she had a fantastic dream last night. There was a huge parade in DC celebrating Pelosi. Millions lined the parade route, cheering when Nancy went past. Bands were playing; children were throwing confetti into the air. There were balloons everywhere. It was the biggest parade ever seen in DC. Nancy was very impressed and said, "That is really great! By the way, how did I look in your dream? Was my hair okay?" Her assistant said, "I couldn't tell, the casket was closed."

Striker-fired handgun recommendations for beginner
VP9 - great trigger, extremely accurate, and I love the paddle mag release. I shoot it well. Aced a tactical shooting course with it. M&P 2.0 9 or 45 - Good trigger, love the grip angle. Very natural. I shoot it well. Glock anything - The Toyota of handguns. Easily serviced, always goes bang, and with a little help the trigger becomes comparable. I shoot them all from 9 to 10mm well enough for SD purposes. Walther PPQ 9 or 45 - Great trigger, probably the best, slightly lighter than the VP9. But it gives me pause for thought were I in a SD situation. My M1 versions also have the paddle mag release. Note this: I've shot all of them a lot. You should shoot what you're considering in advance of purchase if at all possible. Your mileage may vary from mine. Take all of this as strictly my opinion, not facts provable via the scientific method. And BTW, how do you like the trigger on that Shadow 2?

We have a large wicker basket full of cat-appropriate items. Mice, feathers, birds etc. The basket is tipped over as required, items are scoffed, and then distributed around the house as desired. Including placement in my slippers. While carrying said items around the house wails of pronouncement may be occasionally heard. Even with a full mouth. Once a month we sweep the house to retrieve all the items and reload the basket. Rinse and repeat. Our cats are indoor only. So no bail is required.

Gun law question- non-NJ
No, it doesn't, and he wouldn't want it to. I was simply pointing out the distinction between one's state of domicile vs. having residences in multiple states. That is completely irrelevant to firearm purchase and permits. But it has huge implications with tax status. Just ask Donald Trump about that. Your scenario with NY and NJ is pretty much the same as mine with PA and NJ.

Gun law question- non-NJ
I made this correction because you can have a residence in multiple states, but only one state of domicile. I'm assuming since he moved to Florida, he wants Florida to be his state of domicile, especially for tax purposes.

Gun law question- non-NJ
Then I would forget it. If he's stopped in NY with a CC that has a NY address, but his DL is Florida, any average NY police officer would immediately conclude something was wrong. The NY house is in his parents name. I assume then his residence in FL is in his name. That means he's domiciled in FL. And I don't think NY state would issue a CC to a person domiciled in FL who 'lives' at his parents house from time to time. If true, than his NY CC would be considered invalid. We are domiciled in NJ in the home we own. I We also own a house in PA. So we are true dual-state residents. And my sheriff in PA agrees to issue PA LTCFs to us as residents of PA. Your friend, I suspect, would not under any circumstance be considered legal for a NY state resident CC.

So just how did the FBI manage to recover any of the Bitcoin ransom? Two views.

The 114 Year Old Assault Rifle
I received the following picture and text in an email this week. I thought it made some interesting points. However I also removed the trailing political commentary. My interest is in the rifle. A hundred and fourteen years ago, in 1907...our great grandparents were first able to buy the rifle pictured. The semi-auto Winchester Model 1907. This is a gun they could buy from a Sears catalogue and have delivered via US Post. It was/ is a semi-automatic, high powered centerfire rifle, with detachable, high capacity magazine. About 400,000 semi-automatic rifles were produced before WW2. Civilians had hundreds of thousands of these for 40 years, while US soldiers were still being issued old fashioned bolt action rifles. The 1907 fired just as fast as an AR15 or AK47 and the bullet (.351 Winchester) was actually larger than those fired by the more modern looking weapons. The ONLY functional difference between the 1907 and a controversial and much feared AR15 is the modern black plastic stock. The semi-auto so-called "assault rifle" is 114 years old. It isn't new in any way. The semi auto rifle was not a weapon of war. The government MADE IT a weapon of war 40 years after civilians had them. The semi-auto can be safely owned by civilians. The proof is that literally 3 generations of adults owned and used them responsibly and no one ever even noticed.
