it is uncanny though how a have-a-heart trap will slip right into a 55gal drum full of water, <cough>. Grandpa "had" a skunk problem. I swear some day they will dig on his property and find the over 30 plots in the back yard with them laid to rest, and think my GOD who lived here?!

they are getting closer to finding you, Beech. lol Wanna hit the Beechie Range on Sat? I'm itchin'

If you don't want him, then get to the hardware store and buy a "have a heart" trap and relocate the critter to a location far from home. The last critter that caused me trouble was a Racoon. He kept tossing my trash at night! My wife thought that I was going to off him, lol. I trapped him in the have a heart trap, and set him free behind a local Chinese Restaurant... I called my wife and said "he's in a better place now" and she yelled at me, "I knew you were going to kill it!" . When I told her what I did she got all happy and said, "he'll be happy living there and eating from the dumpster". hahahahha. Good luck with him. If you do decide to trap and release him, let the kids participate and learn to appreciate nature

OMFG! Did he at least have his green flag posted? hahahahaha

usually if the base is off for holidays they are closed too... but best to just call.

All - I recently made an arrangement to sell my 1911 to a buddy, and buy a new 1911 to replace her. We did our pistol app paperwork at about the same time, with me actually a day or so behind him. He's in Haddon Heights and I am in Cherry Hill. I have had my gun for 2 days now, and his references have not even been contacted yet! I know, because I'm one of them, lol. He is not getting calls back from the LEO in charge down at Heights. His last try was yesterday, and he still hasn't received a call back. Is anyone away of a specific problem delaying Haddon Heights Twsp? Thanks! Wally

fire brick should be easy to find at hardware stores or definitely at Tractor Supply; look in the fireplace/woodstove section.

what about header paint from an auto store? VHT Flameproof is good to 2000*F. I'm sure there's better.

WOW. Good info ^. I did get a sour taste using USPS MO once. I mailed off a money order for a Ham Radio and the day after I sent the MO the seller called to say his antenna was hit by lightning and the rigs were fried. He promised to return my MO once received. I tried to pay for a stop payment just in case he wasn't honest, and the Post Office said they had no way to do that. Yipes!

found it if you want it. It's 3' long.

Home Depot. ROXUL is the name. I bought it there a couple years ago when installing a wood stove. I think I have a a small section leftover if you want just a piece and don't need to buy a whole bundle. Wally

I have nothing more to add about trying to cover your bases, but a comment about non-USPS money orders. Some folks will not take non post office money orders because of the potential for fraud. For example,(as a seller) you accept a Western Union or bank MO and deposit it into your bank account. It clears. You ship. A month or more later you get a visit to your door by the Po-po and the "cleared" funds are clawed back. You were just the victim of a fake money order. It happened to my best friend that sold a high end watch for $1400 on craigslist. Since this has happened, I've seen an increase in sellers only taking online payment or specifically a postal money order. Just food for thought to help understand why some sellers might seem "odd" or prickish about accepted payment methods. Hope this helps, Wally

good to hear! I can't wait until it's Cherry Hill's turn

Just to be clear, I'm not trading, I'm just offering it for free.

I'm organizing my reloading setup and I'm going through items that I got from my Step-Dad's father. I found a box with 16 fired cases all headstamped Super Speed 300 SAV. I don't shoot 300 savage, so I'd like to give them to someone that does. Anyone? Buehler? - Wally

I'm no lawyer, but if they are married, then wouldn't the gun be legally BOTH of theirs anyway? I know in many instances husband and wife are legally the same person. It sure makes it a HARD argument for SS that this is a suspected straw purchase. It's not like two friends living together and shopping.

My buddy in Haddon Heights felt the same way, but I got to him before he went there! Now, months into him being a gun enthusiast, he went in there because he felt, like you, that he had to see for himself. Since he wasn't smelling of fresh newbie fish, he was suspect from the get-go. When he asked a question, it was all over. He called me from the parking lot and thanked me for the fateful day that I literally forbade him from going there, hahaha. Attitude, gun pricing, range pricing, ammo pricing, and attitude... just horrible. Wally

YAY, then everyone can be a WINNER and get a trophy, hahaha. Good one

that was why I didn't crimp, I welded the round stock to the cap... I can always cut it off and weld a long/shorter rod to it. Plus, I bought an extra one in case people come to their senses all together and he can toss the modded err--- capped cap -- in favor of the OEM. Ugh.

it shoots shorts; HV shorts.

good link; thanks for sharing. Maybe before anyone is permitted to be on a gun ban committee, we round them up and make them sit on stage with Maury Povich and successfully complete a round of "assault weapon or not" where they play the game of looking at pictures and voting. To warm them up, he could do the old "Real Girl or Tranny" picture game... I'm sure the scores would be about the SAME! Wally

just semi - not bolt, slide, or lever. I ended up taking the solid metal thumb piece off the top of the inner rod. I inserted 15 rounds of shorts into the mag tube, and then measured how long of a "stop" that I needed. I took some metal round rod and welded it to the thumb cap piece. Once reassembled, you can't load more then 15rds of shorts; it works out to 10rds of LR. I left just enough gap so the rod isn't pressing on the top round, but you couldn't fit an extra. Next I need to put the old man's new birthday-present scope on and then zero it in at the range = the best part! gee Dad, I'm going to need a few more weeks to site her in better, lol. Wally

^like Have frangible ammo improved in the past few years? Last I knew, they were accurate enough for close quarters but suffered from accuracy, hard primers, and excessive wear on the gun/rifle. Maybe if the ammo they have is "better" then it's not as bad as it seems, just expensive? I used to live in Mystic and now I take my daughter down in the summer and weekends to my Mom's place (and a LOT more often as we rebuild from Sandy!)... I'd really like to have a nearby range when I'm there, but if it doesn't work out then I'll keep driving to Ft Dix. Wally

cheaper backstop and/or cheaper air filtration with non-toxic frangible. I can't imagine it is on purpose, maybe being in the Pinelands has certain requirements for new construction of ranges? I'm grasping for straws though, lol.
