  1. Interesting, and I was going to put in for a permit anyway, I guess I will be trying it sooner rather than later.
  2. Welcome aboard and try to ignore the minor distraction of this thread derailment....
  3. The term- Pork Roll is leftist fake news!
  4. I wouldn't put it past them, or some other anti-gun zealot!
  5. Thank you sir! Great info, especially the rationale on why bottom barrel first. I do need to stop over thinking it, I have used a 1964- 870 for years with an improved choke barrel and it has worked fine for pheasant and clays.
  6. Great point- gun is a 12 ga, usually use 7-1/2 shot but have used 6 at times, barrel length is 28". I have Cyl-bore, Skeet, Improved, Modified and Full chokes but can pick up others if needed.
  7. Thanks all- I typically go with a pointer, so should be closer. I will give it a shot with Skeet over Mod! I need to get to the range and shoot a few rounds before I try and hunt. I patterned the gun last weekend but haven't shot at any clays yet.
  8. Great movies, I remember my father taking me and a bunch of friends to one of them for my 6th grade birthday!
  9. In the past I have always used my 870 Wingmaster with an Improved choke barrel for Pheasant hunting. I now have an O/U with interchangeable chokes and was wondering how I should configure them. I was thinking Improved or even Skeet for the first barrel and then Modified for the second barrel? Also, does it matter which barrel you select to shoot first? I have the top barrel selected to shoot first now. Thanks!
  10. My neighborhood to a tee. A few times a year one of the neighbors comes knocking, door to door to see if anyone saw anything because their car was robbed. And yes, all of them leave their cars unlocked. And my neighborhood has plenty of cameras, bad guys just cover their face in a hoodie and even the best cameras can't make out who they are.
  11. I have an RIA in 9mm, not the tactical, great gun IHO. Have close to 1K rounds through it and not a hiccup.
  12. I cant wait to get out of this state.
  13. And to top it off NJ has billions of dollars in pension debt and not only are high earners moving out major corporations are moving too. At some point things will start getting much worse on the fiscal front as well.
  14. Bought a spring-piston pellet gun on a whim and need to upgrade the scope. The gun is a Marksman .177 cal, and actually shoots pretty good now that I have it broke in and found pellets it likes. It is not an expensive gin, paid around $80 for it with the scope, the scope is so bad that I can either focus the reticle or the target but not both. Anyone have any recommendations on a scope, since it is a spring-piston I have heard that the scope needs to be rated for that type of gun? Thanks!
  15. Cheyenne is not bad, they have a couple of very good bow techs. I think you can shoot the bows there, so you could try a few and see what you like. I shoot a vintage 1970's Golden Eagle compound, as others said it is a blast. I shoot in my back yard and then take the target indoors and shoot in my basement during the winter.
  16. Looking to get out within the next 2- 3 years myself!
  17. Invested in one before Sandy, came in handy when we were out for over a week. Just another wrinkle to deal with.
  18. Exactly, could be some widespread power outages that could last a couple of days.
  19. Same here but mine is in Blacksburg VA! Yea me.

    Good point, and it would be for fireplace use, some this year some next. My brother in law was my former supplier, unfortunately he moved to WV for an urgent assignment so I am out of a supply chain for now. Thanks for the offer- where are you located? I may be able to borrow a truck one of these days, and I have a chain saw.

    Does anyone have any recommendations on where I might be able to find some firewood? I live near Exit 8 on the NJTPK, looking for maybe 1/2 cord delivered. If anyone has any recommendations let me know. Thanks!
  22. Exactly...that is why, in this case at least, everything should be gender neutral...good person with a gun!
  23. A few questions I have- Was he a convicted felon in possession of a fire arm? Is he in this country legally, and if not will he be able to use the new illegal immigrant find for his defense? And most importantly, what will they plea this down to?
  24. Neither do I, I am married.
