The stories in the NJ.com article and the fundraising article are entirely different. I'm waiting for more info to come out.

Well, it caused me to order another case of 30-06 from the CMP. It's the only stuff readily available right now. I get the feeling that most gun owners are buying at least one box in each caliber they have. Those who shoot mostly surplus are going to order even more. The stock M1 was designed around M2 ball ammo specs. A lot of modern commercial ammo can spike the pressure in the gas system too high and potentially damage the operating rod. Owners can reload ammo to around M2 ball specs or buy an aftermarket gas screw that's designed to regulate the pressure in the system and allow commercial ammo to be used. Those looking to reload to weather this crisis have missed the boat, I think. If the grapevine is correct, that components go to making ammo first and are sold as components last, then a new reloader is going to be S.O.L for a while.

I was going to type a large response, but I'd just be preaching to the choir here. The article is garbage. There, done.

All I can say is Jeri Bonavia is a moron.

Bingo! Have fun with it!

Double post.

Did I hear Biden say a double barrel shotgun is a better tool for defense than something like an AR? Also, that people shouldn't be afraid of facts. HAHA

Someone please drop off a hundred cats at her house. I think that's what's missing in her life.

I guess the question is why do YOU want a Garand in .308 if you've already got one in 30-06? IMHO, a .308 Garand is like a 9mm 1911. Sure it works, but meh.

I don't understand people who say "more guns aren't the answer." If there's a shooting, they call somebody with a gun to stop it. Make up your mind.

Why won't this fossil retire to a gun-free golf course somewhere and leave us alone?

^^^ not a fan of the word, but sometimes nothing else really fits. +1 you crude bastard.

A quick google of NAGR turns up some pretty shady results. How legit are these guys?

Good question. I'd want a civilian without a CCW on the panel. No sense in having a big group-think session of govt officials and those with lifetime carry privileges dreaming up gun laws for the rest of us.

I've been to events where the governor has agreed to make an appearance and gotten booed as soon as his arrival was announced to the crowd. It's embarassing. I hope everyone at this rally conducts themselves better because we need to be seen in a more positive light. Remember, there will be news coverage.

I like this guy so far.

Police trade-in S&W semi-auto, like the 5906. They're in that ballpark $$$-wise and are great pistols. They went out of style when polymer came along, but they're built like tanks.

I'm not clicking on links to that d-bag's site. I don't want him to get the traffic. Watching PM on youtube, I wonder if he's ever won an intelligent debate in his life? Watching him argue with Shapiro or Ventura is like watching the 'battle of wits" from The Princess Bride.

I hate the wheelbarrow. It always tipped over and had to be adjusted. Most annoying piece to play with. I voted for the robot. All hail our new robot masters!

No biggie; I'd agree with you if it were just HD. It's definitely a concern when shooting with people to your right, though. Also, an auto doesn't allow the option of racking the slide to scare/warn an intruder. Not to debate either side, but that may be a factor in decision making.

OP wants to use the shotgun for things other than defense.

A pump gives a little better control over where your shells end up. An autoloader will fling the empties 10ft to your right (and hit whoever's standing there) every time unless you buy a shell deflector. I believe a pump gives more options for switching between sporting and home-defense setups; the Remington 870 or Mossberg 500 barrel change is a snap. That said, sporting clays or skeet would be much easier with an autoloader or over-under. Also, shooting an autoloader is fun.
