9mm cases stuck in sizing die
I usually lube the 9mm cases slightly -- Put 50 or 75 in a plastic baggie -- Spry a quick burst of hornady 1 shot into the baggie -- Close bag and mix around slightly coating the cases Makes sizing noticeably easier

+1 for Efingers
Efingers has definitely changed -- I've lived near there and been shopping there for over 20 years -- Bought my 1st gun there this summer -- The prices are very competitive now... As for Lou's -- Been there twice -- Seems it's a hassle for them to take the cable lock out of the handguns -- They just don't seem like they want to let you handle much initially -- Once you get them to take out that lock, it does get a little easier -- I guess they figure, I took off the lock, might as well try and make a sale I have never made a purchase at Lou's although I did try -- It was when NICS was at 20 days -- Wanted to leave a deposit, over the phone, on a gun that I had fondled there -- Didn't want to take down my credit card info for the deposit -- Found something else before I made it back...

How do you apply this stuff?

Suggestions on reloading
223 won't be so bad to size on the lee -- 30-06 may be a workout as for the trimmer and tumbler -- depends on what kind of volume you plan to do and if your a buy once cry once guy nothing beats the giraud trimmer and nothing beats a wet tumbler setup but both do cost for initial startup -- I can help with a tumbler if interested I use ramshot Tac for 55grn 223 -- and cci small rifle primers did that lee kit come with a load manual?

Cantilever 1-2" forward mounts. Who makes the lowest one
Don't forget Bobro -- their attachment system is as good as it gets -- I have an extended mount holding a RDS on my dedicated .22 AR -- Take it off, use the Irons, and put it back on and it's always dead on accurate http://www.bobroengineering.com/browse/category/scope-mounts/

NJ2AS CARRY LICENSE APPLICATION SUBMISSION PROJECT (CLASP)
Heavyopp replied to ogfarmer's topic in NJ2AS - New Jersey Second Amendment Society's Discussion ForumI may have an issue with question 17 -- I may have a disorderly persons conviction but I'm not really sure -- Got thrown out of a prom, drunk when I was 18 -- I believe Franklin PD charged me with disorderly -- that was over 26 years ago I do not see any requirement for a certification on that application -- maybe I missed it

NJ2AS CARRY LICENSE APPLICATION SUBMISSION PROJECT (CLASP)
Heavyopp replied to ogfarmer's topic in NJ2AS - New Jersey Second Amendment Society's Discussion ForumI know it's online -- I do want to see how my local PD reacts to someone actually coming in for the paperwork -- see if they even have it

NJ2AS CARRY LICENSE APPLICATION SUBMISSION PROJECT (CLASP)
Heavyopp replied to ogfarmer's topic in NJ2AS - New Jersey Second Amendment Society's Discussion ForumI do not have an application in hand at this moment -- I will rectify that shortly -- Is there a requirement, on the application, for some sort of certificate from a class of some sort? If we do need a certification, where and when does this happen? I think I'm in -- It's time for something other than voting out the asshats -- we know that doesn't work I think I'm ready, for the possibility of never getting another pistol permit in this state due to having been denied the permit to CCW -- I'm already denied that right I see NJjoniguy posted as I was typing...

10 PSA Blemished Lowers for $499 w/free shipping
It's amazing the amount of misinformation given by gun dealers -- I was distinctly told this at 2 different dealers while making purchases of 3 firearms each time 1st time it happened was at sarco, when they where in stirling -- They where having a sale on stag lowers I distinctly asked for 4 lowers and they told me I would have pay another $15 for nics so I only bought 3 2nd time, same thing at Dicks -- having a sale on 10/22s -- It was right when ruger was changing from the aluminum trigger group to the plastic trigger group wanted 4 at $179 each I believe -- told me I'd have to pay for 2 nics checks so I only bought 3 I'm not sure if Ira told me only 3 or not -- I never tested it with him I assumed these guys knew what they where talking about -- and thats on me for not knowing myself, not that they would have listened to me anyway...

I never even questioned it -- Figured it didn't have to make any sense when it comes to NJ gun laws
-
10 PSA Blemished Lowers for $499 w/free shipping
Really -- Then I've been screwed both at Sarco and Dicks -- Ever Ira told me 3 per nics Let me edit that -- 3 per 1 NICS fee

Wouldn't you have to go thru 4 nics checks to receive these? AFAIK you can only do 3 guns per nics

Putting a safe in a garage, what say yous?
You have a point there... Mines an older safe and I have to keep it elevated -- The hole is right in the middle thru the bottom -- the floor of the safe is about 6 inches thick
-
Putting a safe in a garage, what say yous?
Are you sure? Not that I'm an expert but I've never heard of a gun safe that didn't have a hole for the cord to a dehumidifier. You could drill one thru the floor -- Doesn't need much as most gun safe dehumidifiers have a plug where you wire on the end after it's fished thru the hole thus needing a hole only large enough for the wire itself and not the plug

Creek water
I'm not sure exactly what the shelf life of bleach actually is, but I don't think it's much more than 6 months -- I do know there is a summer and winter blend from the factory -- Temp must have something to do with it -- Your plan relies on a constant fresh supply of bleach coming into your house -- it's just not a put on the shelf and have it when you need it thing I do have a couple of bags of pool shock in my supplies -- I can make fresh bleach -- The pool shock stores indefinitely as long as it's dry

Household bleach has a rather short shelf life --

The original Government 45
This sounds interesting... Is this a shoot all day type thing, or is there some type of limit -- When are you guys going?
-
The original Government 45
At 1st glance it looks like a straight walled case -- Can the brass be made from anything else? What velocities are we talking here?

Magazine rebuild kits
I think I've read before, a milled slot in a reciever destroying the mounting points of the internals, like on a dummy 30 cal machine gun kit Was just a question...

At work, the neighbors had to have some test holes drilled -- dry cleaning fluid contamination -- Anyway, was talking to the guys doing the drilling -- contaminated water was at 15 feet

Magazine rebuild kits
Say I took that sawed off shotgun, pulled and disposed of the firing pins, and hung it over the fireplace as a piece of art Non functioning, hunk of wood and steel artwork -- Legal or Not??? -- in your opinion of course
-
Magazine rebuild kits
I'm not sure what it says for a sawed off shotgun but in the case of an assault rifle the statute specifically states having the parts on hand to assemble an assault rifle constitutes an assault rifle -- does not say that for a magazine

Creek water
Very true -- a huge amount of energy -- also gives your position away with smoke There are a few swimming pools on border properties -- The residents will leave if it comes down to it, if they don't leave, they'll be needing me in some way -- they'll pay with water -- but you still can't drink pool water directly -- could probably get away with a good filtering and not need to boil How much drinking water do you have stored right now?? Say water goes bad tonight -- How long can you last? I have 6 - 5 gallon MWC filled, on hand always -- I swap them out yearly -- they get 2 drops of bleach per gallon of water when I put them up That's emergency water only -- all other sources are depleted before I touch the MWC's -- I'd probably even be into boil, and filter from pools or the brook while using the stored water
-
Creek water
There's a decent brook less that 700 feet from my home -- I always consider that my alternate water source If it turns out that I need to use that for drinking water it will get boiled then go thru a T shirt then a berkey filter -- T shirt 1st to keep the large particles from the berkey
