Pythagoras

Waste of time? Ouch. Maybe it's my young idealism talking, but I think it's worth fighting the good fight. My age group (18-24) is very susceptible open to new ideas and are the most active libertarian supporters that I'm aware of.

The ?firstfree=yes doesn't work for me, I get automatically redirected to the login version. Can you post a link to the Facebook vid?

Stender and Green (district 22) need to get voted out ASAP

Hold on, let me get my tin foil. yes, our economy is fragile and could collapse under certain conditions. Yes, it's good to prepare for such an occurrence (I'm a bit of a prepper myself). Yes, our politicians are using the Constitution for toilet paper. If this vision of the future comes to pass, I will stand beside you... that has not happened yet. But talking like this will alienate people and do more harm than good for our cause

Yes, this could happen here. But we're not going to win anyone over to our side unless we take our tin foil hats off.

Until the terror watchlist receives objective scrutiny, it makes so sense to use it as a standard. Period.

The lack of a grandfather clause should make this bill 100% unacceptable under the Fourth. Remember, the Fourth is not only about searches but also seizures, which is effectively what this bill causes. On the one hand, I would love to see it vetoed for a lack of grandfathering. But on the other hand, the anti-gunners are so out of touch they'll want it passed anyway.

Thanks for all the advice! She finally agreed to shoot the Beretta on our next range trip so we may tip the scales in favor of carry after all.

I don't know. I've thought about asking in the law section but I want to scour the statutes before I bother this community with it.

Hmm, the Colt Gov Model 380 prices I saw discussed on ar15.com are out of my range, about $800 or $900. I'm spending less than that on a real 1911! (Not a fancy one, just a Remington 1911 R1. Again, college student budget.) I thought about getting a .38 revolver "just for her" because I don't really need it since 9mm is ballistically similar. But then I realized that if I'm living away at school as North Carolina resident for instance, I probably can't leave my guns here in NJ. So for cost reasons I'm trying to find something that will suit her in the short term, but also be good for me to carry in the future. She's a weird kind of squeamish around guns. Comfortable enough to go the range with me or use a gun in self defense, but too squeamish to apply for her own FPID and be legally hers...*shrug*

Well she fired the Sig Sauer P232 without any real trouble, I just can't afford it on my college student budget right now. Will definitely consider the CZ82! That's a lot of gun for $270! http://www.classicfirearms.com/c-r-eligible/cz-82-pistols

Can you cite the document you got that line from?

This.

+1 on the Beretta 92FS. Reliable, plenty of mags/parts/tools on the milsurp market, has a good solid weight to it, nice grip in the hand....and a fine sight to look at if I do say so myself.

I'm trusting mcbethr on this. I took a year of Econ and everything he's saying jives with the textbook. Break down ammo into its components: brass, primer, powder, copper (am I missing something?). Pick the most expensive component and see where the logic takes you. Thanks for the economist's perspective!

I love the idea. Have you figured out how you want to distribute? If you want to post your outfit and a location at/outside the meeting, I'll come find you.

+1 for Beretta fanboys

+1 on the Mosins. Looking to get one but don't want to drive all the way to Cabela's for it.

Yes.

I think the invisible version is standard on all Hollywood guns. Ever notice how infrequently they reload?

Let's do it!

Interesting! Thanks for sharing this!

What a coincidence! I just sent the form in last night! I think it sucks that they automatically register you as a member of the party whose primary you vote in. I like to take George Washington's advice and avoid political parties as much as possible, but NJ does everything in its power to stick you in a party. *head desk*

Would love to buy it from you
