Caliber of Your Home Self Defense Handgun
I am sorry but having anything other than lethal ammo in a weapon designated for self defense is an absolutely terrible idea.

Cleaning supplies & spare parts storage box deas?
I keep 2 seperate cleaning kits 1 set up For pistol and 1 for rifles. Each kit fits in a 1 Gallon Ziplock bag: Slip 2000 EWL Slip 2000 725 cleaner 2 old t-shirts 1 old washcloth/hand towel Boresnake 2 Brushes - 1 nylon and 1 brass Handful of Q tips - replace as needed Appropriate tools as needed for the platform. My spare parts fit in a Dewalt Medium Tough Case: http://toolsandmore.us/dewalt-dw2190-screw-driver-storage-case.aspx?gclid=CI_OrfivnsACFYMF7AodOw0AZQ I have one for AR parts and 1 for Glock Parts. Big AR parts love in a shoebox. I also keep small cleaning kits and spare parts in with my rifle bags. Altoids tins are great for spare parts - you can fit every internal part in a Glock except a trigger with trigger bar in one. An Oakley sunglasses case can fit all the usual AR maintenance bits as well.

AAR: EAG 2 day basic carbine
I just took a 2 day all low-light class with Pat & EAG in mid-July. It was an indoor facility so dark was It was eye opening to say the least. I am still working on an AAR but yes, there is a significant difference at 50 yards between the Fury and the X300U. We covered light placement on the carbine thoroughly and broke it down as such: Pat puts the most emphasis on what he refers to as "Switchology". He believes that a light with a "clicky" tailcap at the 10:00-11:00 position (right handed shooter) is optimal for his shooting style and equipment needs. After trying a number of different options myself, I agree.... Although I am toying with putting a WMLX at 12 on one of my rifles. Like you said, no matter where you put the light you will get a shadow. Murphy's Law states that that shadow will be exactly where you don't want it to be when you need to see the most. The answer, move/roll the rifle until you can see what you need to see.

An unloaded handgun is useless when your life is in the line.
Bite your tongue. "Instructor" Zero couldn't have done that on his best day. It was real, not steel or paper and no one was holding a timer...

Chest rigs
Like I said on Page 1 of this thread, I think the BFG 10 speed rig is the way to go for most users that don't need to carry radios, breaching charges, NODs, NFDD/smoke, etc.... If you want to be able to carry the .308 mags and the .223 mags look at the SR25 version of the BFG rig. Also, as flimsy as those BFG Minimus rigs look they are surprisingly sturdy when pouches are attached. I do like the HSGI tacos and I have a belt setup with them. They work for their intended purpose, but man are they a pain to put on and take off MOLLE. In the end your "mission" drives the gear. The gear you are required/desire to carry will determine what is best.

custom rem 870 handguard on ak
I am patient. Eventually folks will realize that they have a few too many AKs and need to offload. A lot like what is happening now with the ARs. If it happens it happens, if not..... Meh.... It's a want, not a need.

Chest rigs
I have what I consider a perfect setup for my needs right now. The only concession would be lighter plates.

bugsy group buy resolution thread
Where you even involved in this? How do you know it wasn't resolved to everyone's satisfaction? How do you know Bugsy want held accountable for his actions? Maybe it is better to keep this board out of any legal proceedings, so those affected decided that keeping mum is a good idea? Why do you think the people involved have to tell you how it was resolved?

AAR: EAG 2 day basic carbine
1) Pat's biggest thing against the X300u at 12 is it simply doesn't solve any problems - there is still a shadow, it costs 1.5-3x that of a Fury and doesn't have the throw or aura of the P2X or P3X. It also works best with his "switchology" including his DBAL. 2) Pat prefers the BCM KMR at this time and has chosen this to be on the rifle bearing his companies name. Also Checko, Aimpont T1 - 3oz EOTurd - 8oz Just sayin' Like Pat says, "your mission drives the gear train". Get rid of what you don't need but don't go crazy bro. Seriously, at some point you reach a diminishing return with weight savings. The lighter the gun the easier to carry but the more fatiguing to shoot, the sharper the recoil, the slower to recover your sight picture. Don't overthink it. The more you shoot/dry fire the easier it will be to shoot - reliable and simple is more important that light.

custom rem 870 handguard on ak
Thanks! I am hoping to get my hands on a Saiga eventually. I am debating between a .223 and 7.62x39 and waiting for panic prices to come down to ~$500 before I purchase. I like this mod a lot and may go this way when I convert.

Looks really good. Do you have details on the mod? How intensive is it? How does it attach?

AR Trigger Thread
In my experience, if Geissele is an option, it's the answer. I have an SDE in my precision AR. It is outstanding. ETA: The rest of my carbines have SSA triggers. I am trying to get permission to instal the select fire version in my issued work carbine, but it is a no go right now. I am also looking at getting a ALG ACT, but I don't think that will suit your stated purpose.

Nothing to be sorry about. You don't know what you don't know

Did my PD screw up my permit extension?
That seems to me to be more of a "housekeeping" issue than one of law. I have had it done twice. Both times, the Chief signed off on the extension and back-dated his signature with the day of the original 90 days expiration. No issues.

Can't tell if you are serious but.... 28 rounds in a 30 round GI Mag is standard for those in the know.

I'm sorry.... Charged with WHAT!?
I am at a loss as to where the OPs confusion is as well. Yes. We all know the true definition of Assault Rifle. It is completely different to the actual definition by a large factor - that being the ability for select fire. However, the NJ legal definition is what it is, even if it is "technically" incorrect. Look at what NJ calls a short barreled rifle. Just because they call it a "sawed-off shotgun" doesn't make it any less illegal to own in NJ.

This is absolutely correct.

An unloaded handgun is useless when your life is in the line.
Like I said: If that is really all you got from the article and it's implications read it again. It is a cautionary tale of exactly what not to do on multiple levels.

An unloaded handgun is useless when your life is in the line.
The lead Detective's funny name aside, this is why you shouldn't keep any firearm designated for self defense use with an empty chamber. Violence happens with a quickness. If you have never experienced it you may not be able to comprehend it, but that doesn't make it untrue. Movies are not real - there is no pregnant pause for dramatic effect while everyone charges their pistols or cocks a hammer before the shooting starts. You can not intimidate someone intent on committing a violent act, you can not scare someone that has no regard for human life, you can not reason with the unreasonable. You can prepare and you can cultivate a mindset to win.
