Gunbroker.com vs local dealer
This is America...Only thing that brings prices down and service up is competition...Did you swear allegance to your local dealer? Why is the even a question.

Oh No, another NICS thread!
What are folks currently in the loop, or recently finished with the NICS process being quoted or actually experienced as far as delays in here?...My FFL quoted 11 days.

One stage I had an enourmous amount of penalties - trying to figure out what I did so as I can learn... How many -points do you get for hitting a white target? How many -points do you get for 1 round miss? Thanks,

Obama just got a big FU
Your "opinion" on Romni is fine - but you didn't give any "reason" for your opinion (NP this is what usually goes on on internet forumns :-))...My opinion: Romni is top shelf. My reason: look at his cridentials of runing business - it is steller...My opinion/reason why he lost" Predudice: First off there is bias against him on the right cause he is a Morman; Second there was bias against him on the left cause his tickit had no "diversity" in it...Also he is too much of a gentleman..He was much better than 4 yeras ago, but he didn't go for juggler in the debates. He needed to match Oboma's nastyness, lies, etc....So if that is what yo mean by "good candidate" perhapes I can agree...But he would have made a great pres IMHOPINION.

One person dead at a Lakewood Range
It really is too bad that Obama and his cronies craeted this panic into this sport...Not saying this guy was a newbi - don't know - just that it creates a higher level of risk for all involved...People who may not have even got into shooting are rushing in (of course it is there right). I am not sure that Shore Shot (I shoot there very often in the winter) "certifies" the shooters well...I could be wrong, but I've noticed they do not "qualify" the renters very much. And yes, I am all for background checks...I personally do not want to be shooting next to some nut job or criminal (of course the checks should be "quick" not 10 days).

Precious metals getting hammered today
There is certainly merit to picking up a starbucks early on and sticking with it...But for every starbucks there are many "loosers" - you better have a way to recognize the loosers and cut your losses (majbe vis TA ;-))....As for your trading buddies, they may need to go back to school ;-)...Seriously, not sure what they are doing? Day trading is tough not for me...I do swing trading - many days, weeks, even months...

You can trade bubbles very easy with technical analsis/charts (=TA)...Actually, they are a great time to use TA...Rid it up, get out...I did it with Gold, then I shorted it as posted...I didn't grab every point up and down - you never do that if you use proper TA risk management...But I have done way better than anyone who bought Gold on fundies 2 years ago (they havn't made a dime. *and may have lost a bunch if they bought somewhare in btwn.

Agreed - but my point was - during the countless times it was debated all over the internet, I have never ever seen 1 person flip to the other side...Beliefs run very deep...and it takes alot of time and effort to change them (weather for oneself or if so inclined to change another's beliefs).

We all have ingrained belief systems - your welcom to yours...I can tell that you have not studied technical anaylsis or you would not make a statement like that...There are no perfect systems, but with charts you have a much better chance trading...Most of the beliefs which are "anti-charting" have been years and years of brainwashing from the finacial establishment - esp mutual fund and index products and finacial advisors...They get a vig for doing nothing but holding your money (and such push buy and hold)....What you are missing in your statement is that the charts will get you to ride the bubble, and then get out at the right time (not at the perfect top but close enough)...Believe me, I lost a bundle in 2000 cause I belive in "the fundies"...Made it back, and got out before the crash in 2008...Second time around I used technical analysis...It took me several years to wash out the brainwashing of the finacial establishment - but I did it through self-education....This is analogous to the 9mm vs 45 cal debate....Beliefs are so ingrained it is very hard to change them.

I learned from experience during the Great Internet Bubble of CA 2000: 1) Do not trade on fundimemtals because things can be great fundimentally; but no way of telling what has already been priced into the asset...This is especially true of commodities and metals. 2) Trade based on Technical Analysis - ie charts etc. 3) Never ever listen to the Gurus ESPECILLY when they are all saying the same thing! Gold hit a bubble peak in september 2011 - classic peak (everyone was selling it on CNBC; all your budies own it)....3 times since, it attempted to get near the old high - couldn't do it...It has been forming a huge decending triangle of sorts since - very bearish! - You can see what happen when the bottom of the triangle broke Friday - Niagra Falls!...I have made some money shorting this...Gold suppose to go up when Terrorist Blow things up - yesterday it fell big time....What does that tell you? As far as the future? I learned the hard way not to make predictions...I trade what the charts "tell me"...Has it sold-off enough to bottome? Let's see what the charts say in a few days/weeks... The Administrators should set up a perminate NJ Gun Forum Trading Folder...It would be great fun/keep us busy as we wait for our pistol permits to be approved ;-)! - Can we do this?

Great day..My second match... Please don't tke this wrong, I am very gratfull for the fantastic job the coordinators do... Just wondering, to speed things up a bit...."enforcing" a shorter time for the walk-troughs as a team moves to ech new stage...Sometimes it seems maybee up to 15 mins to get started at each stage...Even cutting it down 5 mins, saves almost a 1/2 hour overall for the day....I know there is a big gamming element to uspsa, but "in real life" never get to "walk" a stage so much if SHTF... Just a thought....Again, can't say enough about what you guys go through to pull these matches off!

Folks, a little refreash if you don't mind.... Will 200 rounds cover the match (assuming I usually hit what I shoot)?

Springfield XDS @ East Brunswick Sportsman
It is awsomely enginerred and of course not an all day range shooter but it is well beyond a belly-gun (although that is great too ;-))...Like I postied weeks ago I've shot all A's on a uspsa target at 75' several times...And tight groups on the uspsa's head at 30' isn't a problem either...It is very accurate for it's size....But folks are being objective, mostly saying it just ain't their thing...I loved it so much I will be transfering over a new XD Competition starting Friday...It has a 5.5" barrel so I am expecting great things from it...It will be intersting to compare the 25yard accuract with the XD-Comp. Vs the Wilson Tactical Elite I gat last month.

How is ammo shortage affecting you?
Not affecting me at all (except it cost 2X what it use to) - go to bulkammo.com and buy 1000 round lots.
