Anyone know a shop that carries Hi Point pistols??
Thanks, Ben, but this isn't my first picnic at gun camp. I am familiar w. blowback operation. And I stand by my original opinion of Hi Point pistols.

300 Blackout - Thoughts / Experience / Reflections?
Personally, I don't have a need or want for one for the reasons I listed. But I still think it's a valid choice for many others. It's not going anywhere.

Ammo for 10/22
Another vote for Federal bulk. It's the best plinking ammo out there. If you are really looking for consistency and uber-accuracy, there are a lot better choices. Wolf Match and Eley Tenex will make dime sized patterns at 50 yards out of a stock Savage Mark II (if I do my part). But they are both expensive and I'd rather shoot steel spinners or silhouettes, so they mostly stay in the ammo locker and the Federal bulk gets the nod.

Happy 30th Maks
Huh... I always thought he was the older bald guy in his avatar. Anyway, Happy Day!

Many police departments routinely break the law when it comes to issuing FIDs and P2Ps. This is NJ, after all. There are 2 classes of citizens here: those who are connected and those who are SOL. That said, contact (and join) www.nj2as.com And Welcome!

utas uts 15 vs keltec ksg
I'm not an early-adopter. I'm waiting for the UTAS to shake out a bit and see how it fares. If it turns out OK, I'll buy one in 6-8 months.

Yes. One of their 9mm pistols. It felt like a brick in my hand and stove-piped a round at least once a magazine. Like I said, there is a difference between cheap and being inexpensive. I have a Makarov I got for $125 many moons ago. It's run flawlessly the entire time I've had it. The same can be said for my Yugo SKSs, Mosins, K31, etc.

Thanks Giving 2012 - What are you thankful for?
Thankful for being alive!

They swear by them because it's human nature to not want to admit you made a mistake. And I'm not saying that to sound snobby. I have plenty of inexpensive guns. But there is a HUGE difference between inexpensive and cheap.

Making a citizen's arrest in NJ?
For me, the level of violence/depravity of the crime would be the deciding factor. Seeing someone jack my neighbor's car while he is asleep isn't going to get me into my car to try and run the perp off the road. However, witnessing some scumbag fondling a kid or beating up an old lady to get her purse? Different story.

Remington 870 Express Tactical Stock Replacement
http://www.amazon.co...ords=knox+stock I run one of those on one of my 870's. It really cuts down on felt-recoil and allows faster follow up shots. They also offer one that's like a plain M4 stock without the recoil-reducing mechanism. ETA: My mistake. I have the first generation stock: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002KICH6A/ref=wms_ohs_product I have no idea what the differences are.

Akdal MKA 1919 in NJ!!
Does the grip come off like an AR grip? If so, I'd take it off post-haste.

Gun safe recomendations?
Take a bit of advice from someone who learned the hard way: Buy one BIGGER than you think you need.

300 Blackout - Thoughts / Experience / Reflections?
To me, the only advantage of the Blackout is the ability to shoot it subsonically w. a suppressor. Since that isn't possible in NJ, the round loses any appeal it may have had.

utas uts 15 vs keltec ksg
Holy crap. Someone needs to teach that guy in the video posted by Arbelest how to shoot a pump shotgun.

Another problem from the Storm
I think I can answer that question for you. You probably won't like the answer, though....

BSA Sight Needs Repair
It comes naturally. Probably from my mom's side. Seriously though... BSA makes notoriously crappy products. For $99 there are much better choices. Hell, for another $40 I picked up a few Vortex Strikefires a few months ago.

Best HG Round For When You Have To Put a Deer Down Humanely
Funny (well, not so funny) deer story. I live in Bridgewater where the deer are like rats in the NYC subway. I've lived in this house for 12 years and have heard/seen at least 15 deer/car accidents near my house. A few years ago, I was sitting in my home office on the computer when I heard the screeching of tires. I could almost feel the impending "THUD" coming up. Sure enough, another hit deer. I ran outside to see if anyone had gotten hurt. The driver unassed the scene before I even opened my front door. The doe wasn't so lucky. It was lying in the road w. both front legs broken and bleeding profusely from the mouth. I grabbed it by the scruff of the neck and pulled it off the road to help prevent another accident. Guy across the street calls 911. The deer was flailing about trying to get away, so I put my boot on its head to hold it until the popo arrived. Just then a middle aged woman in a minivan pulls up and starts screaming at me. "LET IT GO! YOU ASSHOLE!! STOP!!! YOU ARE GOING TO KILL IT!!!!" I calmly explained to her the deer was going to die and the humane thing was to hold it and let the police put it down. "YOU FU+*&NG ASSHOLE! I"M GOING TO HAVE YOU ARRESTED FOR ANIMAL CRUELTY!! YOU ASSHOLE!!!!" All this with 2 kids in the car. Five Oh pulls up and she gets out of the car and starts screaming at him. "ARREST THIS ASSHOLE FOR ANIMAL CRUELTY!!! HE'S KILLING THE DEER!!!!". Much to the cop's credit, he said, "Ma'am, if you don't want your children to see me shoot this deer, you'd better leave now."

Looking for a "AK variant" Saiga/WASR10/Vepr, thoughts, advice, suggestions?
Are the newer WASR s better than the ones Century was cranking out a few years ago? I know those were a crap shoot. If price isn't an issue, you can do a LOT better than a WASR.

Photography fans? 16Gigapixel picture of Machu Pichu
That's pretty cool. Zoom in to where the people are at almost the highest elevation. There's a woman's head w. no body. ETA: Posters above beat me to the punch!

Generator Brands?
Yeah. This past storm has me seriously thinking of a tri-fuel instead of an NG whole house unit. Although the NG has never gone down here, there is always the chance.

NRA a paper tiger?
The NRA is far from a paper tiger. What many fail to realize is that politics is the art of compromise. If you stamp your foot and throw a temper tantrum, it will get you nowhere. Political change occurs incrementally, not overnight.
