Her Rights Violated? You Decide.
The locker is property owned by the school district... that is understandable. Searching a backpack im not too concerned with given adequate cause.. and when i say adequate I mean more then "we heard you were selling candy in school for profit" Drugs or gambling would again fall into a legal police matter but anything beyond those stipulations i take issue with. After the first sign of bs on their part I would demand council with them via phone before they take action. Some of the things they do are ridiculous. in TLO the defendant was caught smoking (a punishable offense for minors in todays age). The kid gave them reason for search. Hearsay to me is NOT an acceptable reason to search and does not constitute as probable cause.

At least he responded...
as long as you have a permit to carry in other states... Funny thing is.. if they pass this.. NJ will relax their standards to cash in on the permit fees if the HAVE to allow it.

Sig and HK owners, why did you feel it was worth paying more for your gun?
Now see diamond... I would pay the extra dough for the way a sig feels in my hand vs the light poly feel. I know it is all about ones own perspective so glock owners may feel differently This argument is like little import tuner cars vs muscle cars.. they are all fast.. they all get form point a to b... its a matter of preference of build materials and design. .

Barrel selection
I can see myself building a second one later on down the line. Would these tools be helpful in later projects such as a saiga conversion perhaps? I would hate to buy the tools for a 1 or 2 time use.

Barrel selection
So i assume it would make more sense to get a 5.56 and have the flexibility of using both ammo correct?

Barrel selection
So im shopping for my first build... Im considering building my upper as well so the barrel selection is the first major part id like to get out of the way. I hear 1:9 is the preferred, but a friend suggested 1:7 twist... Any thoughts regarding one or the other? Length being the second question. I dont necessarily want it to sweep my house for HD, but I dont want something too long to be cumbersome while outdoors. 16" im guessing? Chrome vs SS? I know expense is the deciding factor, but for something that will get a few thousand rounds thrown through her in its lifetime is the price increase justified to upgrade? Lastly...chambering.. chamber for 5.56 or .223? .223 is what im sure id end up using the majority of the time, but you can use .223 in a 5.56 and not the other way around. Would it make more sense to chamber for the 5.56 and have the flexibility, or would I be doing the wrong thing by not chambering in the round Id be using more frequently. Im all about ability to adapt and if I could shoot either or without instance that would be right down my ally. Thanks ahead of time for any input.. just a n00b trying to put an AR build together.

Her Rights Violated? You Decide.
I believe an instance like this COMPLETELY requires parental consent. If it is not distributed by the school system and is "owned" and or monitored by the parent they have no reasonable right to shake down a child for their password. Unless there is an imminent criminal aspect and need for it would I expect nothing less then consent from a parent. Let my kids school explain to me they were told my child was talking about inappropriate material in school and my response to them would be I will handle my child when they get home (no physical violence of course). This to me would go along the lines of perusing through a child's cell phone in school. If the school has a no phone policy, and he or she is caught having it.. it will go in your drawer and I will come get it. You start looking through my kids phone for "incriminating content" I will use that same phone to call a lawyer to pursue the end of your career. I hate to sound confrontational. In fact my daughters are two and I have no experience of the child in a school system, but when it comes to the expectation of the rights of my own or my child's privacy, you better damn well clear it with me before you go rummaging through their things. Of course there is always the exception of if it is a police matter and the cop is within his/her rights to search my child under their duty of law...but get into trouble? not my child.....lol

Not Even HelloKitty?!?!!?- Sig and HK owners, why did you feel it was worth paying more for your gun?
Well I found $700 in my couch last month and I figured why not blow it on a sig In all reality i test fired a number of handguns and the sig 226 felt best in my hand and my shooting style. Wasnt impressed by the polymer's feel, although no doubt they are tested and tried firearms. It doesnt mean I am a sig or HK guy explicitly, jut prefered my first firearm to FEEL like a well built, reputable sturdy gun.- How is This Different Than a Pimp or Prostitute?

On Friday, a Cobb County Superior Court jury convicted former general counsel and chief operating officer of Glock, Inc., Paul F. Jannuzzo, on charges of racketeering and theft. Jannuzzo, who served as general counsel from 1991-2003 at the popular firearms manufacturer, now faces up to 30 years in prison. Jury foreman Hal Mendel spoke to The Fulton County Report about how the jury reached its verdict. He explained that a key witness Peter Manown, a former Glock executive who allegedly collaborated with Jannuzzo on his nefarious dealings, gave convincing testimony. Moreover, he added that the defense did a poor job defending Jannuzzo against Manown’s claims. Mendel told The Fulton County Report that the jury convicted Jannuzzo of three of the 7 racketeering charges he faced: • That Jannuzzo misappropriated company money when he directed an Atlanta law firm holding some of Glock's corporate funds in escrow to pay $16,000 to a cabinet maker for cabinets in his home; • That he forged signatures on a document associated with a $3.4 million loan from Glock company Consultinvest to a real estate investment group as part of a scheme to skim anticipated profits from a shopping center development deal; and • That he diverted $177,000 in insurance premiums that Glock companies had paid to an insurance company established by Glock to a fictitious company he controlled in the Cayman Islands. The key witness, Manown, testified that he and Jannuzzo intended to split the insurance money once it landed into a Cayman bank account (Manown agreed to a plea deal for his involvement with Jannuzzo, he is now serving 10 years of probation). But added, "I don't know whether we ever took it out of that account, to be honest." "We felt he was totally, totally guilty of many things," Mendel told The Fulton County Report. He also said the jury found it strange that during the trial no one questioned what Jannuzzo did with the funds he allegedly embezzled. After the jury reached its verdict, the prosecutor, Assistant District Attorney John C. Butters, explained in a private conversation that, "It's all in Cayman accounts and we can't get that information." "That," said Mendel, "is probably why the defense didn't want to say he [Jannuzzo] didn't get any money." In addition to the racketeering charges, Jannuzzo was also found guilty of theft by conversion for failing to return a $2,500 pistol he was given after he left the company in 2003. On this charge, the defense argued that Jannuzzo tried to return the gun, but was unsuccessful in his attempt. The jury wasn’t buying this argument, according to Mendel. "He was chief counsel. He was a lawyer. He signed guns in and out all the time. He knows right from wrong … and he knew it was wrong. … He had possession of stuff that was not his," Mendel explained. Jannuzzo attorneys say they plan to appeal the verdict. But given the preponderance of evidence and the testimony by Manown it’s unlikely they’ll have success. http://www.guns.com/...n-explains.html- Pretty cool website gov liquidation

I know a 226 at SS was tagged at $930 which was wwaayyy pricier then what I found online. I understand most folk would like hold the physical product they are buying. If you have held a 226 before you know what it feels like... New in box is just that. The same way you'd buy it out of the glass case. That said I got my 226 Two tone online for $670.. add a $45 FFL w/nics and you got yourself a MUCH better deal after $930+taxes. Im not trying to bash local retailers because they have to make a buck, but there are cheaper options out there.- New Era of Police Vehicles
