Okay so to be on safe side keep the battery powered lantern in a cage. Thanks.

If we discussed this in detail can someone link? I'm really concerned about what gets affected and what doesn't. So anything with a circuit or transistor is inoperable, right? So do batteries still work? How about battery powered flashlights? How about a battery powered LED lantern. I figure the least i want to have survive is a light. If at least I know I got a lantern and a gun I can start thinking about what else to EMP protect. Thank you.

Happy daughter hopefully equals happy wife hopefully equals you've get a long leash for the rifle hobby

To those that will be trying to press check for the first time: Watch some videos or ask someone. There's various ways to get your hand on that slide to creep it back to check the chamber. You might even find it difficult if your springs are hard (hat I mean is its a different motion to just partially creep it back rather than to just "grip and rip" it). And most importantly try not to shoot your fingers off as you have your hand up near that muzzle with a live one in the chamber

I like the idea of racking the slide on new mag all the time (lose one just to be safe). Is that bad thinking ? At least it's a consistent muscle memory training function no? I did it shooting steel in the move the guy said toe "you had one one the chamber that was unnecessary". Thoughts ?

But does the EMP cause deaths immediately? If I'm a terrorist do I want to cause riots and chaos? Or do I want to take out lives immediately ? People on west coast may yawn at the grid going down on the east coast. But ram plane into a reactor or building you scare everyone

Kidd is pulling out because aircraft can cover more sea than an destroyer. The captain was on CNN last night telling the reason why. The planes they have up can cover thousands of miles the ship can't. (For the record I am in the camp it was hijacked, landed and will be used later in a plan so original and devious we will all be speechless. I put nothing past their plans and attempts to target tr US with this beast). I'd rather assume the worst and be thankful for the least. They've already pulled off the impossible for over a week. I'm sure getting to US is the next impossible.

The Magpul fixed stock is just held on with a screwdriver

Stonecold. I went 12 inches down with the chicken wire they are still trying. Now I have to still trap them. The chicken wire is just to keep them at bay. If I just ignored them I am 100% certain they would keep at until a valley was dug around my entire shed What I believe has happene is that they are under my shed already via tunnel from my neighbors property. So they are occupied. Now just trying to make another exit. But what can I do. I'm not moving my shed.

This would me a great place where anybody who opted to have their gas bill switched to one of those variable rate alternative providers. How did they fare this winter. I saw on the news some of those people got surprised with a triple size bill We have debated this in the past on the board

One of these days I will get s summons for trapping/releasing the groundhogs I'm sure. Trying to find an area where no people around to open that cage up. I took one wayyy back to the corner of a park one day. But still random cars parked way back in the corner of the park. Just random middle aged guys alone parked in their cars. (I guess that's for a different thread). :-)

Because 3 letter word searches come back no hits.

My brother was loyal to NJM over 20 years. first kid they added they wanted 2 grand extra. Then 2nd kid added wanted anither 2 grand added for total of 6 grand for three cars and tie teenagers Allstate said they'd do it for 4 grand. I never ever thought NJM could me undercut. I was shocked

You carry collision on a 1998 truck? Is it because the collision premium is so small for an old truck? And also everybody should remember that premiums are also heavily contigent on what town you live in... By like A LOT. Ims sure many on here can recall instances their rates changed when they moved.

Call me crazy but It seems like ammo is creeping lower... Albeit slowly. (please no reminiscing about really old prices) I'm getting happier.

Comedian Jim Florentine does great stuff with cold callers. He once got a magazine salesperson to stay on the line while he simulated drowning his mother in the tub. Fuciing hysterical. It's like he challenged them to see how long he can make them stay on the line

Yeah I should have been more specific. I think it's the tail. The nipple part you would jam into one of those cleaning tools and spin it around to scrape the carbon off. That had a buildup after 250 rounds. I'm not saying it would be enough to stop function from working but since I'm the novice i didn't know how much you can let build up around that nipple.

I'm kinda new to the AR, but after 250 rounds on a brand new bolt I was sort of shocked how much carbon built up on the bolt. Took me a while to scrape it off I can't imagine going 1000 before the scrape. For you guys who "just lube", you're okay with that carbon buildup on the bolt? Again, I'm new so maybe I didnt know that thing can really really get a buildup on it and it's fine?

I've seen two. One is a flat scraper and the other you jam into a device and spin it. Is a device essential or does just any good scraper work with elbow grease?

WP Range is standing room only every single weekend and there is never not 5 people doing new paperwork at the desk every time I am there. Is a little 'ol range in NJ an indicative measurement of gun growth? I dunno but that place is a BOOMING success. If he opens more ranges it's just more and more new shooters. I wish I could buy stock in Gun For Hire.

Like the topic about the reset. Since I hear so much about gun reviews and "man what a sweet reset" I always thought deep down I was doing it wrong because I never paid attention to reset. FWIW when I'm bullseye shooting I hold trigger through recoil then full release sighting next one up. But when I'm shooting steel for speed I frankly have no idea when I'm released I'm so focused on the targets. Some day with advanced training I would like to figure the best methods.

Let me ask you one question, and let's not go off on a tangent and keep it just this one point: Last year did we have more debates and disagreements on this board about what people said at the microphone or what they were wearing? It was about what was spoken. (Let's reminisce "god given right", "2nd amendment", "what right do you have?" Etc etc.). If you think otherwise I won't even respond again because we are seeing it differently. I watched the entire hearing online. I was not there, but I saw the entire thing. Did you? If you interpreted my post as saying "don't bother looking good" that wa incorrect. But I will repeat: "you're out of order" guy was wearing a suit. I don't think it got him any respect. He got thrown out by what he was saying. Hence, time at the microphone is more important your words. That makes plenty of sense

"Out of order guy" was wearing a suit if I recall. It's what you say. Not how you look. But if you looked awful and sounded bizzare 1+1 = 3. Look, I wear a suit most days. But I'd rather hear 4 good speakers in flannels that 3 awful speakers in suits.

And free shippIng.

Every time I read. "How many NJSP would it take? They don't have the man power.l" Why would it have to be NJSP? They would just hire temp workers and every FFL could be visited in less than a month wth a dozen workers. C'mon man. Outsourcing. Knock on doors just like the census workers. I'm not saying a home owner would answer a civilians questions but it certainly would be an efficient first "check the box" move. Don't be aloof to the "they don't have the manpower" line.
