I'd imagine if you have trouble finding an NJ compliant rifle, you can always buy the out-of-box version of the Saiga, if anyone has them. Then, just convert it in your garage and follow 922r compliance.

And what will we be doing in counteracting this?

If it's just for speeding, not reckless, I'd say just ay the fine - as stupid as the fine is. Thanks for talking about this, guys. I always thought highly of VA. Now I'll make sure to be cruising at 70mph if I ever pass through there.

Hahaha, "Kill all the Jews or kill the Poles and Ukranians"... On a side-note, being of Catholic Polish descent, my grandparents supposedly lived fairly good lives during the Nazi occupation of Poland. Then, the Russians came around and took things from bad to worse. But, that could have been completely different had my grandparents been Jewish. Christie needs to stop acting like a smooth-goon politician, and start reading the Constitution and let the votes follow after.

Niech spoczywa w pokoju - May he rest in peace.

This man is my hero.

Update: Went shooting last week, and the shells fired just fine. I'll be picking up some dummies.

Buy as many rifles as possible. Flood the legal-market, made up of legal-gun-owners and legal-gun-owners-to-be, with lots and lots of legally obtained guns.

Thanks for reiterating, vladtepes. Now, I'm off to hunt down those elusive .50 Beowulf-only AR mags that MidwestPX mentioned.

Thank you, MidwestPX. At least, somehow, somewhere, it's legal to have 10 rounds+ of a big-bore-AR-caliber in a magazine, in NJ.

So a .50 Beowulf AR mag will ALWAYS be able to be modified back to .223?

I don't mean to hijack either, but I literally just started a topic about this. So while we all understand that using a standard 30-round AR mag for .50 Beowulf (which will only fit 10ish rounds) is ILLEGAL.. Is there any brand of AR mag for .50 Beowulf, etc., that allows for 10ish rounds, and cannot be modified back into using 30 rounds of .223? If such a product exists, it would be NJ legal, correct? Here's my thread. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/59057-big-bore-ar-mags-legal/

Hey guys. I've been looking at those insane large-caliber ARs, like the . 458 Socom, .450 Bushmaster, and .50 Beowulf. From what I understand, the standard 30-round AR mags allow for 10ish (depending on caliber) rounds of these big calibers, using some simple modification. Because the modification is reversible (I'm assuming), this makes those mags a no-go for NJ, since the mags can then hold 30 rounds of .223 again. My question is, is there any brand of AR magazine that's produced in these big calibers, that is manufactured in a fashion that DOES NOT allow for a simple modification back to 30 rounds of .223? Basically, is there an NJ-legal 10-round mag for .50 Beowulf?

A .50 Beowulf AR. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_c6aKE5_V9s/UYQ56Oh_pTI/AAAAAAAAV7E/cCGne5sdVA4/s320/50Beowulf.jpg Cause who cares if your state limits you at 15 rounds when your gun is a .50 cal. EDIT: I'm assuming these mags are NJ-legal because they're solely for .50 Beowulf? http://www.shopalexanderarms.com/Magazines-10-Round_.50_Beowulf_Polymer_Magazine.html

I just tried ut my Mossberg 500 Talo Home Defense, and it was fun as hell to shoot. Works great.

CZ 97, the underdog!!!

I honestly think he was doing and will do anything to get elected/re-elected. Back then, the anti-gun platform was favorable for his situation. Now, he's got the White House in his sights. If he allows this to pass, or actively supports this, he's an idiot, and deserves to be made an example of when he gets ripped in the Republican primaries.

Called just now to argue against the Sweeney Bill in particular. My guess is he vetoes all except the 50 cal ban. He's really got the advantage to veto here. He's popular as hell in NJ, so this November is gonna be cake for him. He's got his eyes on the White House. Come on, why wouldn't he veto?! But, the world is a sick place, and anything can happen.

Good for her for speaking out. Awesome statements.

How many people die each year on FDA-approved drugs, or by supposedly "okay" indulgences, like alcohol? Hundreds of thousands? These are "government-approved drugs". Now, how many people each year die from marijuana? Shrooms? How many people have died from these, EVER? These are "illegal" drugs. I don't feel comfortable consuming ANY kind of chemical, legal or illegal, as a newly-established gun-owner - so I don't do any of that stuff... I'm sure alcohol has been the cause of plenty of shootings, accidental or not. Can you say the same for marijuana?

He didn't get booted from the Corps. He served in Fallujah, Iraq, and was discharged honorably, which was later changed to "other than honorable" because he protested publicly in his uniform. Yeah, marijuana and psychedelics are so bad for you - that's why the government is in bed with the pharmaceutical companies. Ever go to the doctor for some issue? There's a pill for that. It's just as easy to get a Xanax prescription from a doctor than it is to get weed on the street. One is legal and causes addiction and suicidal tendencies. One is illegal and has minor consequences, such as food cravings and sluggishness. Ever wonder why the Feds raid legally (state-wise) operated pot dispensaries? Because they're darn to afraid to crack down on the meth labs and other dangerous rings. I cannot believe you are openly defending the Federal government right now. I guess this is what it was like when the 3% of Colonists were rebelling against the Monarchy - they were seen as "traitors" by the rest of the sheeple.

Yes. Carrying an enormous amount of weight in your hands works your biceps, even if it is isometrically. Try carrying a bunch of water-buckets all day. Your arms will explode.

P.S. - For those massive arms your wife wants, you obviously need larger forearms, biceps, and triceps. Deadlifts and pullups will demolish your biceps and the "palm-side" of your forearms. Presses, pushups, and dips will shred your triceps. There's also the "back-hand" side of your forearm. Doing wrist-extension with plates or dumbbells will get these bad-boys.

Screw soy. Unless you are very skilled and have awesome technique and motor control, don't bother with Crossfit, or P90X, or Insanity. I think it's extremely stupid to perform different movements back-to-back in a fatigued state, all while you might or might not know how to properly perform these movements. That's what these programs encourage. I say, stick with basic barbell and bodyweight movements, and once you get those movement-patterns ingrained, you can superset them into pairs, which will give you a bit of cardiovascular conditioning on top of it all. Barbell: deadlifts, low-bar back squats, standing overhead press, and rows. Bodyweight: planks, pushups, pistol squats, cossack lunges, pullups, and ring-rows. I don't recommend bench pressing for a few reasons: 1. Force is transmitted through your torso, into the bench, and to the ground. Pushups, however, transmit force throughout the entire body, into the ground. Sure, doing pushups doesn't mean you have as strong a chest and triceps as someone who benches 350+, but one can easily wear a weighted vest to make pushups a strength exercise. Weighted vests can be made increasingly heavier. 2. Most people keep their elbows flared, arms perpendicular to their torso, during the bench press. This is the perfect position for shoulder impingement. Even with this corrected, with elbows at 45* to 60*, I still don't like how your shoulder blades must be pulled back for almost the entire lift. The pushup allows for a complete range-of-motion for the shoulder blades, which decreases risk of impingement even further. Something intense and short, like sprints (under a few minutes), or something easy and prolonged, like easy jogging or swimming (half an hour, to an hour or longer), is great for conditioning. The former works the phosphagenic metabolic pathway, and the latter works the oxidative metabolic pathway. One burns ATP (which comes form glucose), the other burns fat. Too much exercise in the glycolytic metabolic pathway, which is extended glucose-burning (20-50 minutes of fairly difficult running, for example) depletes your glucose/glycogen stores, and is fairly stressful to the body. This leads to sugar cravings, overtraining, injuries, etc. Testing your mile-pace once a week, or every other week, won't stress your body like crazy if you use very light-and-long and very intense-and-short conditioning exercises. However, running everyday like it's race-day will kill your body. How many guys have we got coming back from the military with messed up knees from all of their frequent crazy-long runs? I don't over-do it on carbohydrates. For someone wanting to get lean, cutting carbs is an easy way to lose weight, but is not sustainable in the long term. You start to have less energy throughout the day. I can vouch for this. I used to get 50-100 grams of carbs a day, but have upped it. I'm now isocaloric - meaning, my calories are obtained in equal amounts from fat, protein, and carbohydrates. I recommend this kind of macro-nutrient approach for people who are active and athletic. You can still get lean - you'd probably just have to count calories if the weight isn't coming off.
