  1. Thank you! Can't wait to shoot it , it is in beautiful condition. Exactly what I was looking for !
  2. I just watched the video , had my dad bang on my safe a bit , and the f'in door popped open. I think I'm going to go in wall. It is a stack on safe.
  3. He is cross dominant. Right handed , left eyed. So he can't sight it up if he shoulders on his right.
  4. Impressive! Very nice collection.
  5. Yeah , I totally noticed that from the pictures too. I have always been a fan of photographing/videoing yourself when you train at anything for this exact reason. Thanks for the advice , I always welcome it.
  6. Nice looking..what exactly is it? The picture isn't big enough for me to read the writing. I'm fast becoming a revolver person. Then there is : Me attempting to shoot another member's AR ..since the stock is too long I had to stand sideways. Good thing NJ makes you pin that stock! It certainly prevents me and another person from comfortably sharing our long guns at a range. PHEW! lol I really really liked this gun Now I have the urge to get my own Pete trying out another member's gun as well. I love get togethers. I have met nothing but really nice people in the sport Got to try the Nano finally! Very nice! Pete trying out an FN .45 ACP. Another nice one. I liked them all I guess lol Pete and his favorite long gun , his Winchester 30-30 lever action.
  7. I really do like it. It will be the first gun Pete and I have "twins" of lol He picked his up Saturday a.m before we went shooting , and I'll pick mine up in about 2 weeks
  8. Pete shooting his new Model 19 Me shooting Pete's new Model 19. I get my own in a few weeks. Can't wait. What a nice shooter. 4" barrel .
  9. I would. Not for a typical movie , but this was a special premier screening. A friend of mine got tix to a different one from a publisher. It was a special treat for her 3 boys. It was a fun , off , atypical treat for kids to get to stay up late and have fun on a summer evening. My father took me to see Crosby Stills and Nash when I was 6 . We got home at 2am and it is still one of my nicer memories. The only time I ask "why were kids there" is when there is a gang related or drug related shooting post 11pm.
  10. The only place to get "facts" anymore is to wait one week then check a foreign news source. We have no more "news" ..just media outlets and opinion pieces , peppered with fringe lunacy and conspiracy publications.
  11. You don't know it is him. Here is a status update from this now harassed innocent person with the same name : Dearest random Facebook people who keep confusing me for a mass murderer and yet still send me Facebook requests.; I appreciate the fact that you are trying to become better-informed about the occurrences last night in Aurora, but you have been somewhat mislead, in that I am not the man who did it. I am not a 24-year-old gun-slinging killer from Aurora, I am a 22-year-old book-slinging mass eater from Littleton. Somewhat distinct, I would assume. But I would appreciate if you would read this particular post an not assume that it would be interesting to be friends with someone on Facebook who is very probably going to be in jail and not be able to confirm your friend requests anyway, or even be friends with his girlfriend, who had the rather interesting experience of having to tell someone she had a job interview with that she is not, in fact dating a serial killer. James Holmes happens to be a pretty common name, surprisingly, so try not to jump the gun. Regards, A different guy named James Holmes People keep spreading shit they know nothing about every time something like this happens and a whole nation tied to one stupid a** social networking site has all the answers within 5 minutes and is off on witch hunts
  12. How do you know that is him???
  13. I'm with Bob. There are probably 50 mistakes in any article right now , time will tell what happened who did it and why.. I would picture in that situation a person carrying could maybe hunker down and hide with his own and hope to get a shot off if the gun man spots him. Might sound cowardly , but if I was in that situation with my kids I would get down/ hide with my kids behind me and my gun drawn and hope we were not spotted by the killer. There were people there with infants and children. It's summer , it would be a special treat for those kids :/ There are people on my FB making jokes about this , saying things like " I hear the Dark Knight premier knocked them dead" . I have cut 3 people off my friends list so far over it. WTF is wrong with society these days?? How is this in any f'in way humorous? Sorry , if you can make a joke about it today , you deserve tragedy to befall you and then see people making jokes about it.
  14. Nice! Congratulations They always make mistakes in articles. No matter how many times you reiterate certain facts
  15. My friend is ok. And awake earlier than she intended due to my phone call. Phew!

    When you are ready to buy the other parts , let's talk. I am not married to the flash suppressor and had seen a few muzzle brakes I liked. It gives me more options for stocks on it. Would do a suppressor/muzzle brake swap with you! Thanks ! No nothign serious, just a hernia the size of Jupiter thanks to my 3 kids Late August it is! They don't make 15 rounders. I looked exhaustively . Choices are the 10 rounder or something larger , pinned.
  17. It will be a while before we know who or what did this and why. We'll know if he acquired the guns illegally , because they just won't say. If he bought them legally , it will be immediately reported. I am frantically trying to reach a photographer friend of mine from there who was telling me a big client had given her and her boys tickets to a premier screening. So I am a bit freaking out right now.

    Are you asking me or the other poster who shared pics? Mine is a Ranch . If you have a Ranch but don't like the stock , there are a lot of take offs on ebay. I got a take off that was just as nice as the original just about , and junkmanted ( the other poster who posted pics) cut it down for me ( I need a 10 1/2 LOP) . This is it with a the cut down take off stock that I got for , I think , 30 bucks on Ebay

    I was going to add that aftermarket mags seems a iffy in it. It likes Ruger mags and they are not cheap. But , once you buy them you have them , so. lol did not realize it was a resurrected thread ! I would definitely like to meet up at the BH. I have surgery Tuesday and then can't shoot for about 3 weeks. I'll hit you up with a PM once I am back shooting again , most likely end of August I'm only 5 minutes from the BH. Clintoon - he did have a really really nice collection. Lots of old revolvers too. His Colt was my first gun , had I known what I know now I would have probably went for an exemption and picked up a few other handguns he had. They are all sold now ( that was last year) .
  20. Sandy replied to CPRPE's topic in Rifles
    Thanks It is sentimental too. Part of a collection a family friend had. he was a Lakehurst Officer and he unexpectedly died from complications of what should have been routine minor heart surgery. He was only in his 50s. I'll never sell it for that reason , even if I hardly use it I/we also have his Colt .45 Combat Elite , Winchester 30-30 lever , an SKS rifle , an old Stevens Long .32 rimfire ( or centerfire we can't tell) , a Rossi pump action .22 , and a boyscout gun..a Remi single shot bolt. The 2 last ones will be for my kids when they are ready
  21. Good luck with your niece. Keep in mind most people have to fail at rehab a few times before the stay clean. Most are never ok. It is a horrible drug. When I was 15 we were at a party and some older guys from Newark showed up with hard drugs. I left , but a good friend of mine stayed and hung out with them. We grew up together , at age 15 the most we had ever done was sneak beer. The next weekend she was " hooking up" with them again. I never hung out with her again and she was officially a junkie by the time we started high school . She dropped out at 16. Last I heard she was seen hooking by some mutual friends of ours that are Newark PD. She was a normal kid , good grades..that one decision changed her life forever. Another old acquaintance got hooked in college , hit bottom. Then she was a success story , got clean , was acting as a good single mother should went to nursing school and became an addiction councilor herself. Then a few months ago there she was in the paper , she was hanging out with the same old trash and they got picked up coming back over the bridge from Newark. We were all shocked and heartbroken because she had been clean enough for everyone to relax a bit. Just prepare for a rollercoaster ride. It is good of you to want to help but just know if she fails at it 20 times it is not for lack of effort on your part . And REALLY secure your belongings. Addicts can easily steal from the people they love the most if they are going through withdrawal. As for the amounts , I know nothing about it , but 30 of anything can't be good. Good luck , and wishes of strength and honor for your niece .
  22. Sandy replied to CPRPE's topic in Rifles
    Yep. That and my shotgun too ( there was a shottie side last week , right? ) Looking forward to both in the near future. OP - I don;t know your location , but you are welcome to try mine if you want to meet at the Bullet Hole . It takes 3 minutes to swap out the stock to the original normal LOP one
  23. Sandy replied to CPRPE's topic in Rifles
    I have a Mini 14 and I really like it. The stock it came with is really nice wood ( I changed it to another stock which another member here then shortened for me) and it is the stainless barrel. I have only shot it in indoor ranges with the sights and it is very accurate at I guess what you would call self defense range. I'm really not interested at this time in shooting any farther than 50 yards , so this rifle fits the bill . I NEVER use it though lol . I feel dumb shooting it over and over in an indoor range ( gets boring) . Once I join somewhere and have a bit more room to move and shoot outdoors I might be more into it. Here is mine with the original stock
  24. I read in another article it was over 3 feet down and 6 feet long. When we were kids we were having a clam bake and we dug a huge hole on the beach at night. One of our group was in it and it collapsed , we managed to get him out thank Goodness. Digging large holes like that on a beach has been a known hazard for as long as I recall. This was not your average hole these kids were digging , it was a tunnel to boot , it was a pretty big project. You're not talking a hole just big enough to sit or stand in waist high that your average child would dig . I am a bit surprised nobody stopped the 2 boys ( aged 10 and 12) from digging an over 3 foot deep 6 foot long tunnel on a beach in the middle of the day. I would picture kids pulling that off when not supervised. Very tragic , my heart goes out to all involved and affected.
  25. I did not get to watch it and I really don't have enough brain function today for any kind of debate ( child awake from 2am until 6:45 am ) ..but I do know that the high infant mortality rate in the USA is not what it appears to be. One of the biggest reasons we have more babies die after birth is because of the level of high risk pregnancies we can support , deliver , and give a small chance of survival to. I know of several women who would not have delivered babies that had issues were they not afforded the advanced prenatal and post natal high level NICU care we have in this country. They would have been stillbirthed or miscarried in other countries. When you live someplace that has a fighting chance to save a baby born at 23 weeks , or the ability to detect and treat severe heart defects in utero or the minute they are born ..you are going to have the ones that do not make it affect the "mortality rate" . If you are having a typical pregnancy , you and your baby have the best chances in the world because you live in the US. This is why a lot of "statistics" are BS , and are smokescreens that only give you RAW numbers without explanation of influences on those numbers.
