I have some bates in stock at the army navy store. Let me know what size and I will let you know what we have. It would prob be easier to ship em to you bc cherry hill is a good hour from the store.

Saw this on another site today. Agree it's admirable of them, unfortunately it means another US company will inevitably send a similar rifle to Pakistan and it will most likely wind up on the black market just like all of our other weapons. Look up the VICE segment on purchasing weapons in Pakistan for a particularly disturbing insight on how easy it is to buy weapons that are stolen/misappropriated there.

Yes it looks identical to the PA micro dot. PA recently stated that they produced an extremely large order for a major rifle company, I am betting that this is the contract they had. I also can't place an order FYI, keeps saying SSL error.

Lol, I am tempted to get the one in the marketplace, but as it turns out furnishing a new house is very expensive and the gun fund is a little dry for the first time in a long time

Just saw this pop up, seems to be about $30 cheaper than anywhere else. If you scroll through the list there are several very good buys in there. http://www.bushmaster.com/products.asp?cat=26

I had the Sightmark 1-6x24 on one of my ar's. It works well and the glass is really clear for the price point. I actually have it up for sale in the marketplace. Only reason for selling is that I had been hunting for a more expensive optic and landed on the Vortex HD Gen II 1-6x. For me the 1-6x scopes are great bc you can use em up close or still hit water bottles at 300yds if you want. Here is the link for it: http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/classifieds/item/1795-sightmark-1-6x-scope-in-adm-recon-cantilever-qd-mount/ If you didn't want the mount I would split it up, the scope actually came with rings I never used.

Assuming there is no shipping on anything adding up your specs you are at $1067 for your build vs $1289 for the DD (I subtracted $350 for the Aimpoint). For the $220 difference I would go with the Daniel Defense as long as it fills everything you want in a rifle from the factory. Keep in mind that with either of them you are still going to have to buy a muzzle brake and pay an ffl to pin/weld it on and also pin the stock.

I would think just take the screw out and go to lowes, match it up to the right size washer and you would be good to go.

While there are certainly lots of benefits to getting a govt/leo job, completely writing off a business or finance major as a bad idea is foolish. There are plenty of people who are graduating and getting good positions at good companies, for better pay than a govt job. With a normal business finance degree you can (if you choose to) start in an entry level position at a brokerage firm and in a few years be making over 100k as a trading assistant or similar position. Most people who are good at their job become traders or sales people after another few years and in my experience make anywhere between 2-500k a year. Making that kind of money you can work for 10yrs or so and then you have enough of a nest egg to find something you enjoy doing if you so choose. There are lots of consulting and other gigs available to ppl with experience. Is this the case with everyone? Of course not. But if you are are hard worker and persistent you can earn significantly more through the private sector. Yes I am in my 20's and have several friends I graduated with who are now making over 200/yr. I personally graduated with a business management major and dont work in finance (or make close to 200k) but I do very well for myself, making substantially more than I would at a leo/govt job. I also don't have any of the inherent risks a leo job entails. My point really boils down to this - OP please dont write off looking into getting a job in the corporate world bc you think you won't land a good position. They are out there, you just have to hunt for them.

I completely agree with this. Living at home to save up is def the right decision, but like what was posted I paid rent there every month until I bought my place (basically enough to cover food/utilities).

This might be the worst post in this thread. We live in one of maybe 4 parts of the country a finance degree will get you serious $ out of school. Out of all of my peers the ones who are doing well now were either finance or accounting majors. If you can get in to an entry level program at one of the reputable firms and stick with it you will benefit handsomely in several years. I know first hand what ppl at brokerage firms are pulling down as junior employees and its certainly more than senior employees working a govt job.

The best thing you have going for you is that you realize you want something more. You are finishing school, while maintaining a job so you are ready on a good track. I moved back in with my parents after college to save up for a home and lived with them until I was 25 when I bought my first place. Since then I have focused on saving money and doing better every year than I did the year before. FYI Im 28 and also work in retail. You can do well if you work yourself the right deal.

Can't see your location but Tony @ TJs Sporting Arms in Bayville or Steve @ Monmouth Arms will both do it with good customer service.

Agree with all the "buy less, shoot more" posts. I have lots of stuff purchased this year that never made it out of the safe. Looking to shoot once a week and start honing my accuracy bc I am by no means a marksman. Also want to make it to the cj members steel match every month this yr.

Or I shoulda gotten there later...now I want one of the POF rifles. Need...to...stop...spending...money...

Can you recommend a good holster for a pistol w/ an rmr? I finally found a good deal and now will need holsters for an M&P CORE and an FNX TAC w/ RMR's on them. Took your advice and got the led version w/ 4moa dot. I have holsters for both of the reg versions, but they don't work with the raised sights.

^ I see you were serious about getting one lol. Just changed my ch over to the right side and I really like how the whole gun feels/functions. It was good before but is great now. Next time you are heading to the range let me know and you can try it. Also, grabagun is super easy to deal with, no issues with nj bs.

Got a ta11 acog and a kershaw blur as far as gun stuff goes. Parents got us a really nice kitchen knife set and some house odds and ends as xmas/housewarming gifts.

Ok then - I have a compliant, unfired, in box ddv5

I think I will be putting a new in box dd v5 rifle up for sale in the marketplace next week. Already modded to be nj compliant. Bought it 2 months ago never shot it and just took another v5 in on trade so I dont need 2. Pm if interested. Has the upgraded acs stock and a pws fs556 brake pinned and welded.

really? I will call you tomorrow to discuss...

Only read thread title, not post. Great job, make sure you start her out on something small so she doesn't get scared off too easy. If you are going to R14 and want some .22's just let me know and I can accommodate.

My parents were certainly not gun ppl (which is weird bc we own an Army Navy store) they weren't even happy when my neighbor got me a bb gun for my 11th birthday. When I came of age I got my FID and when I turned 22 decided I was going to buy myself a firearm. Parents weren't thrilled and expressed that they weren't going to make me put it elsewhere but they were not happy with it being in their house. Fast forward several years and I am no longer in their home but have started collecting historical firearms (ww1 - vietnam type stuff) and they started to take an interest in it. They have since expressed interest in coming out to shoot and ask about what else I have purchased. My gf was anti until I convinced her to come shoot and now she has designated my m&p9c "hers." She also laid claim to my 9mm sub2k, and in a somewhat odd statement said she wants nothing to do with my Tavor bc it "Looks like a tiny dick." Gota love woman logic. I also signed 3 ppl up to CJRPC this yr who were not anti gun but just hadn't shot in the recent past. After bringing them there they had enough fun that they decided to join and all of them have expanded their collection.

I'm a Kershaw guy, always used them and for the price I think you can't beat em. Recently picked up a straight edge scallion in stainless finish, and a 1/3 serrated Scallion in black finish for $35 each shipped.They arrived at the house and the gf freaked out. Xmas brought me a Kershaw Blur courstey of her lol.

Looked for it, found this. It is Troy Industries archived response via facebook to all the s**t they got from facebook ppl when the story broke. http://i.imgur.com/FVjk9Kq.jpg
