Daily humor thread
An old acquaintance who knew a State Trooper played it for him back in 87 or 88 clearly before the online surge so it must have been on tape. Anyway fast forward to *about* 2005 for me and I heard it played for the first time on a Philly radio station (without the F-Bombs). I always wanted to hear it so I found and downloaded the wav file several years ago. Long story I was moving some files around on the computer last night and rediscovered it so I figured I share with the group via that URL w/transcript, obviously It all over the internet now....

saiga bolt hold open (BHO)
I used needle nose and put a slight bend in it as per CSS check the video at the 0:40 mark. One my first one probably took me 2 hours. With the CSS method I could do pretty quick OT but I love that hand guard, I take it that is the original and your mod.

Can you take the heat?
There you go... And because there are a few fishing references in this thread it is just like the old fisherman's bumper sticker, something like "A Bad day fishing is better that Good day at work". I always remembered that when I was off or on vacation and we experienced nasty weather. I went the range today and had a blast. I kept the AC off in the car and drank a big container of HOT Tea while on the way there.

Red dot for Saiga AK47 (762)
Thanks almiz111 for the post and all the guys that suggested the Ultimak rail. I hadn’t heard of them but I’m a believer now as well. I ordered one and installed it yesterday, its very well made and it beats the snot out of those over-sized clunky side rails.I didn’t get my Vortex Red Dot yet but I had a Bushnell stowed away that I put on to test. Looking forward to trying it out, will probably order another soon for my S223. I’ve been trying to get by with iron sights but after 50 my eyes need some help, LOL,

Ham/cb for dummies
I did CB over about 40 years but gave it up. This past April or so I was thinking about Ham but like you I know very little about it. I found this youtube overview to be helpful and the second sight has practice tests that look doable, at least for the entry level Ham. With summer here I sidelined my interest in Ham for now but will explore again in fall/winter. anyway take a look at the practice test, it may be be of some help to you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFLxeASa05k http://www.hamwhisperer.com/p/ham-courses.html

NH
NH’s state motto is “Live Free or Die" and they take that very seriously. Our state motto is “Liberty and Prosperity” and we haven’t had either in a very long time. Our state motto should be changed to “NJ the Nanny State” and the slogan on the Trenton/Morrisville Bridge which displays “Trenton Makes the World Takes” should be removed. NJ is a joke therefore so are the gun laws. NJ Politicians who are proponents of gun control simply do it because the masses are gullible and it takes the focus of the big picture which is NJ has some serious financial issues, Property Taxes and state spending are still out of control. It wasn’t gun owners and/or the law abiding citizen that just goes to work every day that ruined this state, it was the Politicians and they continue to do so.

Red dot for Saiga AK47 (762)
I’ve been thinking about doing any optic on my S223 for a while so glad to see this thread. I hadn’t heard of the Ultimak before and you probably had it on there last year after you did the MSA adapter post, I probably didn’t notice because the focus was on the mag adapter. BTW I still have S223 with TAK-D mag adapter and LRBHO, I upgraded to the Bastard over the winter. I think you would have loved the upgrade. Anyway after briefly looking into the Ultimak rail I haven’t seen anything written bad except some say it does get hot. I forget where that was posted but someone said the heat could be an issue for the cheaper Red Dots, what do you think? That’s probably not much of an issue for me, I generally only shoot 10 rds (or less) and may load again then toggle between rifles. I just ordered the Ultimak and looking forward to putting on my S233. Now for the Red Dot, what do you Vortex Sparc? It looks pretty good for < $200. Also when you cowitness do you use Lower 1/3 or Absolute method? Thanks in advance edit: typo

Talk to me about air filters for my AC/Furnace
you are probably OK with Merv8 on newer system, 8's are right in the middle, take a look here I'm using Merv12's. I change them out every 2.5 to 3 months

Ruger 10/22 legality question
Interesting, I have a stock KelTec SU16-CA (CA= California legal) which has a threaded barrel with thread protector. So what you are saying it as long as there is no other “evil features” like the PG I could add a FH or brake without having it welded, correct? Edit: added -without having it welded

Is the front license plate optional in NJ?
It’s another Nanny state regulation and for the high-end cars it f***s-up their bumpers... Think about it, if you could have a paper Temp plate that is barely visible while waiting for your real plates to arrive, so what’s the difference? Also keep in mind 1976 the front plate rule was waived so folks could sport their Bicentennial front plate and IIRC nothing bad happened as a result. Too all, Happy 4th

Well would ya take a look at this...
No disrespect to you but we could do this all day long. Having heard #109 NRA segment as you suggested it pretty much brings me to the same conclusion. Good show and looking forward to hearing it again but the radio show even acknowledges the NRA will be punting on state/local issues. So if you are of the belief the NRA is back in NJ, or at least providing a little guidance let’s hope one NRA field guy, 22-23 years later,, with the will of NJ gun owners is enough to stop the bills on the Gov's desk. Sure I’m glad the guy is here but at the end of the day (as stated in the show) success or failure will be measured by NJ gun owner’s participation, not the NRA. If people continue to write, fax, email, and call the Gov we have a chance but if people fade and lose interest the NRA could build a palace on West State St across from the State House it will not make any difference. Have a Pleasant/Safe 4th!

Well would ya take a look at this...
ANJRPC has an “Association” with the NRA, they aren’t the NRA. For example you don’t pay your NRA membership dues to ANJRPC or vice versa. Then you got further than I did if you talked to board members.... I called the NRA *about* 2 years ago to inquire as to why the NJ ccw bill that seemed to have gained support suddenly got stymied. The NRA rep that took my call could offer no explanation and as the conversation progressed the rep basically said the NRA wrote-off NJ. Sure, I love to see ccw in NJ too. I have a few non-resident permits and don’t see any reason why I should be prevented from carrying here. I suspect the NRA will probably further distance themselves from ALL other states issue’s and focus on Washington going forward for at least the remainder of this administration. I think we will see these other smaller 2A silos like NJ2A2 & ANJRPC taking the leading roles across the US in state rights issues and even less of the NRA. In my view NJ2AS is still fighting for CCW but have their hands filled with the current laundry list of BS bills currently sitting on the Gov’s desk. IMHO this is where our immediate focus should be because I certainly don’t want to lose any more ground.

Well would ya take a look at this...
in case you haven’t noticed NJ2AS and ANJRPC have had their hands full lately and we haven't received NRA support since the 1980's

Iraq Vet, LEO, speaks at public hearing in NY
Why, for telling the truth? Had Mr. Weiss spoke it Trenton none of it would have registered anyway because the Trenton pols like NY Pols already had their minds made up. Look at the Assembly Dems, specifically Assemblymen Mainor this guy is dumber than a bucket of rocks and they put him in charge of the committee, it is just mindboggling. We just have to hope the Gov does the right thing and pulls the plug on all of it...

What does this bill mean
Let me rephrase that, it’s not law yet so CALL, WRITE, EMAIL,Tweet and FAX the Gov to tell him you oppose this legislation. If you just accept it, it will happen....

Sweeney Bill Passes -- My Letter to the Governor
Nice job OP What gets me is CC wants to play on the national stage commenting on issues that are clearly out of his scope, for example the Gay marriage issue, regardless of where you stand he was right on top of that like but in the meantime as our <sarcasm> esteemed </sarcasm> NJ lawmakers just passed an onslaught of new anti-gun laws aimed and law abiding folks and we hear nothing… I guess one of two things will happen, he will come and do the right thing and veto the bills in the 11th hour or he will do nothing and let it become law and just continue to grandstand on national & world issues that he is powerless over
