Pulled Over by Police - Legal Firearm in Car, Standard Procedure?
If you are fingerprinted for any reason for the state of NJ: substitute teacher, FID card, criminal inquiry, school bus driver, etc.... You are assigned an SBI #.

Removing the bayo lug
Leave small scratches alone. Any touch up will likely look worse than the scratch. Besides, chicks dig scars The metal where you cut the bayo lug off needs to be covered so it doesn't rust. Any high-temp paint will do. I used black barbecue paint I bought from Lowes after hitting it with a Birchwood Casey Blueing Pen. You could send it our to be me limited, nitrided, parkerized, etcetera.... But that gets crazy.

Anyone have any experience with the Troy Claymore?
My FSC came pre-drilled.

Store clerk grabs robbers gun in hold up.
Watching this video in a small phone screen, but it looks to me like a railed 1911 with the hammer down. Maybe the counter man is so much ballsy/stupid as he is observant and knows his guns.

Meh, As long as it functions reliably and is accurate I am pleased. Function takes precedence over fashion always. My OCD does kick in a bit with matching the furniture color though..... Don't get me wrong, if someone (me included) came along and deliberately messed up one of my guns for no reason/out of carelessness I would be pissed. But dings, scratches, and dents that come by honestly from use I'm OK with.

Damn your black heart..... How hard was doing this? Yours looks sharp as hell and I have a line on a brand new Hogue stock for ~ $50. I figure I can always buy myself a mini down the line or I can sell the parts and make most of my $$ back....

Pulled Over by Police - Legal Firearm in Car, Standard Procedure?
Most get downgraded to obstructing traffic here. A downgrade has to be in the realm of what happened. You can't get a downgrade to a seatbelt ticket unless you were issues a seatbelt ticket (the court can merge the tickets) or it is documented that you were given a warning for not wearing a seatbelt. It doesn't matter if you admit to speeding or not. The downgrade is because the officer/prosecutor agrees to downgrade it. You aren't getting out if it, you are getting a break.

Serious. We issued these out in the 80s to supplement the MP5s and we have four minis left in our armory. They are not typically issued, however I drew one from the armory, and qualified with it, specifically to participate in this class.

I was looking at that myself. It's relatively cheap, and looks easy to do. However it's not my rifle, it's an issued gun from work.

Pinned stock
I got like a million roll pins from Harbor Freight for $5. They work fine.

Ok, so this is what I did. Thanks Ty! I am pleased so far. Optic is in a good spot, balances well and points fast. The light setup mimics my ARs so switchology is consistent. Still sussing out a sling setup but I have a few ideas. Only complaint so far is the wood gets slick with sweaty hands. I am looking at some skateboard tape to solve that issue.

Anyone have any experience with the Troy Claymore?
They are very hard to drill to pin. Other than that they are like any other linear comp. They push blast out front, don't do much for recoil dampening, minimally affects muzzle rise. The only advantage is no side blast for your partners.

If you are a real operator you will use your beard hair woven into a para-aramid plasma rope. But if I gotta tell you that, you ain't a real operator.... :rofl:

I just find it funny. A couple years ago there was 100 threads on Arfcom about how to keep the brass deflector from getting brass marks/chips on it, how to install the bolt catch roll pin with scratching the lower, and asking if the coating on a certain lower would match the color on any given upper. It didn't matter how a rifle shot or functioned as long as the "fit and finish" (god I hate that fucking term) was acceptable. Now scratches and dings are all the rage. Want a distressed rifle? Tie it to your bumper and drag it down a gravel driveway for 100 yards or so. That ought to do it

Oh, you want an "authentic looking stressed" rifle? Easy, sign here on the dotted line, then raise your right hand and repeat after me.....

Sig brace everyone cries...
I love it! One of the mopes was wearing a GPS monitor as terms of his probation!!' It led the cops right to them, that right there is a thing of beauty. It makes my heart soar like an eagle! And the AR pistol (SBR) had no sights at all on it other than a reported laser sight. Rocket surgeons these three are.

Send Us Your Women!
I know it's a serious topic but after reading the thread title I couldn't stop thinking of this: I love that movie! Now that I got that out of my system.... On a serious note I think it's a great demographic to target and get involved in both sport shooting and HD/SD training. I just hope that consideration of a proper mindset to be a Momma Bear protecting her cubs doesn't get lost in fervor of "We gotta sell/market more guns to wimmin folk".

Personal Home Defense Scenarios Exercises
Just got my hands on a SIRT pistol and AR bolt. I am gonna try a few things and see but I know I can clear my house with a rifle and I am confident my skills are better then theirs. I have a spent a lot of time in a shoothouse practicing my FISHing TTPs. I have also spent a lot of time playing the what-if game and visualizing how things could go down. Of I have access to a gun when something happens I know I will prevail. The issue is when you don't have immediate access to a weapon. When you run out of time. My family and I have a plan or two and we are building the foundation to implement initiative based tactics if we ever need them. As far as equipment, I am a big fan of an AR for HD. That will always be my first choice - if I have the time and the wherewithal to grab one. I also have armor for everyone if we have time to don it. You can prepare all you want but if the gun isn't on your person or in your hand when you need it, you are at a huge disadvantage. I am not going to stash guns all over my house with a 5 year old living here. I try to discreetly carry around the house but that doesn't always work either. It's a game of balance. You have to be careful though. You can think to much. You can "what if" anything to death and that's not productive to a positive winning mindset.
