  1. I searched the forum and didn't find any clear guidance. Carrying a .22 rifle in a backpack (ar-7, 10/22 take down) while in the woods, legal or no? I know with an FID I'm good to keep a unloaded long gun in my car/on my person. But is there some state park regulation that prohibits it nonetheless?
  2. This. I'll pay a little extra to buy local, but use those sites to judge what the going rate is. Also, it's not that serious a matter of principle for me that I'll pass up something like $15/box for .38s when the best local price is $20+ tax. If I get 10 boxes, I'd be paying a $60 premium to stay local. I'm not that committed.
  3. Revolver...
  4. "...yet I see young "recipients " using their gubment food card they pulled out of a coach purse and covered in jewelry walking to their Lexus..." Hahaha. That was pretty much me yesterday. My mother has a neighbor (70+, no family) on food stamps who she takes shopping. Well, mom broke her arm last week, so I was up there to pick up groceries for the both of them. This was the scene: Youngish, healthy looking guy, in a nice suit, expensive watch, driving a Cadillac, using an EBT card. Lol.
  5. In America, it allows you to add a suppressor.
  6. I have some ultramax 9mm that I regret buying. I haven't had any performance issues (accurate, no fte/ftf) but it's dirty and smokey as hell. I shot one magazine last time at the range and it looked like George Burns was hanging out in my port. I'm saving the rest of this stuff for outdoors plinking only.
  7. Personal experience (and a common mistake): 1. (20 years ago) My parents home. Intruder entered in the middle of the day through the bilco doors. German shepherd alerted first and chased him from the basement, over the backyard fence. 2. (10-12 years ago) An old GF of mine came home earlier than usual, walks in on neighbor in her (first floor) apartment. She ran screaming her lungs out, he went out the window he had jimmied to get in. 3. (Recently) The last place I lived at before my current place was a large apartment building in a nice area of Bergen Co. Around 11pm, I hear my entrance door being opened. I, unfortunately, had to cut across a hallway in full view of the entry door to get to my gun. I told the wife to dial 9-1 and stay put. As I made my way to the bedroom I notice my super hot upstairs neighbor standing in my doorway, looking confused. I ask her what she's doing, something clicks and she goes "OMG, I'm so sorry" and books. Spoke to her the next day: as it turns out, all the locks in the building have the same type of key, so they'll all go into the lock, but not turn it. In this case, my wife had left the door unlocked because she was going back and forth to the laundry room (she got an earful on that one) and smoking hot neighbor chick was tipsy, got off on the wrong floor and thought she opened her own door (but stood there looking dumb, trying to figure out why her furniture looked different). The common mistake in all three was far too easy access. (unsecured bilcos, easily defeated window lock, unlocked door). So it does happen, even moreso if you don't take precautions. Even situation #3, which was an honest mistake, it could have gotten ugly had it been some dude from 3 floors up who I didn't recognize. But it could have been really bad if it was an actual BG and I'm cut-off from any self-defense tools other than a tv remote and a couch cushion. So now I keep a gun in easy reach in the commonly used areas of the home AND I make sure all points of entry are secure and reinforced.
  8. So is your argument that we have to proactively assert our rights for police to know that we have them? Or so that they will respect those rights? Because neither should be required. I agree w/ your point about being polite w/ service workers and LE equally. But if that waiter was a d!ck to you, I don't think you'd be so deferential.
  9. Disclaimer: My brother-in-law, father-in-law (ret,), and best friend of 26 years are cops. I know the job is tough, but I also know that some cops are @$$holes for no reason at all. That guy on the tape, yelling at that kid is one of them.
  10. Seriously. What exactly are you talking about? DUI checkpoints or the type of fake-k9-alert search in that video? ^This right here. I do. And for some reason, drugged out of their mind people never inspire me to ask them if they are lawyers (video @1:56) or violate their rights just to prove i'm in charge.
  11. I don't think there are any ifs here: "Defendant Officer David Cawthorn outlined the defendants' plan in his official report: 'It was determined to move to 367 Evening Side and attempt to contact Mitchell. If Mitchell answered the door he would be asked to leave. If he refused to leave he would be arrested for Obstructing a Police Officer. If Mitchell refused to answer the door, force entry would be made and Mitchell would be arrested.'" That sounds like the Henderson PD thought doing this was well within the scope of their power.
  12. ^Yup I don't like IOS and I really hate itunes. However, the iPhone 5 is perfectly designed, hardware-wise.
  13. The U.S. Congress in 1984 did.
  14. I never got that. 20 = too young for a Coors Light 18 = plenty old enough to deploy, fight, kill and die. Sure. Makes perfect sense.
  15. ^slow clap Deterring underage drinking because there might be a cop I mean ABC agent I mean alco-hall monitor under every 6-pack? Sure, that'll work The problem (if it is one) is not the 20 year-old who wants a beer, it's the shop owner who's selling it to him. Fine the liquor store owners to death for every infraction and maybe we can raise some money instead of wasting it.
  16. Edison does them by appointment twice a week. $12, residents only.
  17. According to the article and their criminal case, no one fired a gun. So would I. But then I'd get thrown in jail.
  18. Actually, the way it's worded, it sounds like we might have to have online ammo sales transferred to a local ffl/dealer: electronic reporting by dealers, on a real-time basis, of all 1Internet1 12 13 rifle and shotgun ammunition sales and transfers, and information 14 relating to each such sale and transfer. The reported information 15 shall include the name, age, address, type of firearms identifier 16 exhibited or possessed by the purchaser or transferee
  19. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/29/college-student-arrested-thrown-in-jail-after-buying-bottled-water/ It should have been just a simple trip to the grocery store to buy bottled water, cookie dough and ice cream for a sorority event. Instead, six plainclothes officers swarmed University of Virginia student Elizabeth Daly, who was ultimately arrested and spent the night and next afternoon in jail, the Charlottesville Daily Progress reported. What happened? The officers — men and a woman — were state Alcoholic Beverage Control agents who suspected the 20-year-old walking to her car that night had just bought a pack of beer. One agent jumped on the hood of her SUV and Daly said one drew a gun. Panicking and not knowing who they were, she tried to get away. “They were showing unidentifiable badges after they approached us, but we became frightened, as they were not in anything close to a uniform,” Daly said in a written account of the April 11 incident. “I couldn't put my windows down unless I started my car, and when I started my car they began yelling to not move the car, not to start the car. They began trying to break the windows. My roommates and I were…terrified,” she stated. She dialed 911 as she pulled out of the parking lot and stopped for an agent’s car with lights and sirens, the Daily Progress reported. Once she realized who the agents were, she apologized profusely. Nevertheless, Daly was charged with two felony counts of assaulting a law enforcement officer after she grazed two agents with her SUV trying to flee, and one felony count of eluding police. She spent the night and afternoon in jail, and was facing prison time and thousands of dollars in fines before the charges were dropped Thursday. Charlottesville Commonwealth’s Attorney Dave Chapman told the Daily Progress he’d never seen a case like this in 34 years of experience. “It wouldn't be the right thing to do to prosecute this,” he said. The Alcoholic Beverage Control said Friday it’s reviewing the incident. A spokeswoman said a female agent saw “what appeared to be an underage person in possession of what appeared to be a case of beer.” “The agent identified herself as a police officer and was displaying her badge,” agency spokeswoman Kathleen Shaw said in a statement. “The agents were acting upon reasonable suspicion."
  20. He should contact the state w/ copies of his receipts and advise them that he was going to pay the Use Tax (http://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/su_4.shtml) but that the FFL collected it already. I'm sure the dept of treasury would be interested in what Carter Drugs is doing with his and who knows how many other people's use taxes.
  21. The question is usually some version of "Does the applicant suffer from any phsyical defect or illness". I would be pissed if my references couldn't figure out that within this context things like allergies, lactose intolerance, bad acne, halitosis, a crooked nose, missing teeth, etc., have no relevance. I mean they're all some form a physical defect/illness, but c'mon. "Le sens commun est fort rare."
