  1. Here is your last chance. Take your 11+ round magazines and mail them (UPS or FedEx too) to prominent Democrats and other Anti Gun jerks. Then drop a dime to the state police reporting these people as being felons in possession of illegal objects. Remember all they have to do is have them, they don't even have to have a gun. This will solve many problems.
  2. Yes would be interested in hearing what one needs to do to put money in the credit union at 5% risk free. Has to have a catch I would think.
  3. The market goes up and the market goes down. If you are investing for the long-term don't watch it daily and relax. In the long run don't bet against America - the market as a whole will go up over time. If you are doing short-term trading, well yes it has been a wild ride.
  4. There is another very good option. In a day or two mail some of these to leading Democrats. Then on the 11th drop a dime and report them as being in possession of hicap mags. Remember they are instant felons for having them even if they don’t have guns.
  5. So I guess if you have a 10 round .40 cal Glock magazine and also own a 9mm Glock you could be charged with constructive possession of a high capacity magazine as it will feed more than 10 9mm rounds. Heck under this new "ruling" you might not even have to possess the 9mm Glock as the device itself could be considered a high capacity magazine. Gotta love the socialist people's republic of New Jermany where rights come to die, and be taxed.
  6. I like the more gooder Yea, was just making a comment, don't think from a functional point of view one is better or worse. But there is something to be said about consistency. I don't want to have to think about which gun I have in my hand and what I have to do to release the mag - there are enough things to have to think about be it in a gun fight or just in competition. I want the mag release to work the same on all my guns. That is why I waited till they came out with the M2 to buy a PPQ.
  7. A GOOD USE FOR HI-CAP (ie 11 round plus) MAGs On December 9th it has been suggest everyone send one of these to the homes of each of your Democrat law makers. Then on Dec 11th report to the police that these people are in possession of illegal high capacity magazines - which will be a felony even if they don't have a gun to go with them. This will solve a lot of problems in NJ
  8. I wasn't thinking of these as preventing smash and grab, rather just preventing crimes of opportunity such as if a maid, repair person, party guest just saw something laying out in the loose. Also will stop younger kids from getting into or taking something. Now if you want security you need to wire it up so it gives a 20,000 volt shock when the door is opened Just be careful you always remember to deactivate it before YOU go to open it;)
  9. These things serve their purpose - they keep honest people honest, which is all a cheap safe will do anyway but for more money.
  10. For the few bucks you save generally better to buy local. That said, there are times when the market is tight and you can only find what you want in another part of the country. If you really want to save money then look into buying a previously owned gun from an individual. There are many people that rush out to buy the latest and greatest new gun and then after shooting maybe two boxes of ammo decide they don't really want it and sell it cheap just to get rid of it. Check out various buy-sell boards or ask people if they know of anyone wanting to sell what you are looking for.
  11. Paddle - BAD, Button - Good! I want all my guns to operate the same, don't want oddball ones with paddles. Also too easy to accidentally get your finger in the trigger guard if you miss the paddle. If paddles were the be all and end all Walther would not have switched the PPQ from paddle to button.
  12. I guess it all depends on where you live and what you are trying to accomplish. If I lived in da Hood, I would have a very expensive hard wired system with remote storage - perhaps tie a machine gun into it Where I am in a virtually crime free area behind a security gate that is much less of a concern. I am more interested in seeing when UPS dropped off a package or if anyone came looking for me while I was not home. Just having these wireless things visible is a deterrent.
  13. Amazon has the Blink XT (outdoor units) on sale today for Cyber Monday. One is $79, two pack is $150, three pack is $230 and five pack is $350. You can have up to 10 cameras and extra cameras are $96. I ordered some after reading some reviews. They are not the best, but are quite good and for the price with free cloud storage worth a try. They give you 7,200 seconds, and then it loops over stuff. But since you only record motion that is 2 hours of clips and should be more than enough. I watched some side by side comparisons with Arlo cameras and the quality was very similar. Sure it does not have all the bells and whistles but they are a fraction of the price, run for two years on a set of batteries and no monthly charge. The biggest down side is you can't have the cameras more than 100' from the hub and can only use one hub. For me, living in a gated community, I think these are more than adequate. Oh, and Amazon owns the company now so I expect them to stand behind the products.
  14. In terms of practice one wise person told me when I first started: don't go to the range without a plan, effectively turning dollars into noise. Make sure you have a goal when you go to practice. Are you just trying to work on trigger control, are you working on controlled pairs, are you working on time from the holster to a good first shot? Have a plan and follow it. As for many of the other things I would highly suggest training by participating in matches such as USPSA and IDPA. If you are a new shooter don't be concerned that you don't have experience or are not the most accurate or fastest shot. All you should care about is that you can be safe and follow the rules and that you want to have fun. The good shooters will not look down on you, and most will take you under their wing and help you out. These matches are a great way to make new friends too.
  15. What is truly amazine is that Gillum, who is left of people like Pelosi, Warren, and Sanders, actually got the votes he got - that is scary. He wanted to defang the police and basically throw away the justice system not to mention introduce and income tax and have more stupid anti gun laws. How could any sane person vote for any of that?
  16. It really amazes me how Florida can have these problems. Things must vary significantly by county. In St John's County, just south of Jacksonville you have to submit your driver's licence which they scan and verify before they even print your ballot. Then it goes into a machine that scans it, and you are done. No sure what a machine recount would even do as if it got scanned one way the first time it best get scanned the same way a second time. Sounds like those two southern counties must be playing some games. But rest assured the Dems constantly tell us there is no such thing as election fraud - arg.
  17. I moved to Florida in June, and took @Rob0115 's sound advice. Even if it turns out it is do as I say not as I do I have really not bought anything of any significance. I mostly shoot USPSA so I am limited to 10 round per mag if I shoot Production division, and 140mm length magazines if I shoot Limited. For LTD that means about 19 rounds for major and 22 for minor power factor. The only thing I have bought were some 140mm mags so I did not have to use +4 basepads on my previously legal 15 rounders and some larger magazines as backup for my G43 carry gun. I know I am boring, but really in no rush for extra toys and until recently was busy looking for a house. Now that we are settling in maybe I will start thinking about new toys.

    That is the EXACT same view yesterday from my back yard, except our sky was more grey - but I'm in North Jersey, oops I mean North Floriduh
  19. We could easily solve this mess if we moved election day from November to April. You would vote on a form attached to your tax return. If you wanted to vote early, you would send in your tax return early. Problems solved.
  20. NJ law on "permanent" actually makes no sense. If you have a mag neutered it must be permanent, but there is really no definition on what that means. Pre ten round limit, when it was 15, if you got a Glock G17 mag which was 17 rounds you had to have the base plate epoxied to have it be legal - well that is what I heard. Then about two years ago if memory serves me correctly, Glock came out with factory 15 round mags. I got a few of those, and wonders how they could be legal. My conclusion was that if they were legal, it was only because Glock called them 15 round magazines. You see they are the same physical size as the 17 round mags, they just don't have inspection holes labeled 16 and 17. If you take the basepad off there is a little free floating plastic block in them that prevents the follower from going all the way down. If you take that block out and put the mag back together it is a fully functioning 17 round mag. I asked a Glock rep on the phone and he told me to put the question in writing and they would get back to me. They never did get back to me. I always wondered if the socialists in Trenton might decide to go after a gun owner who had any of these claiming they violated the 15 round mag limit as these were not permanently 15 round mags.
  21. What is going on in these two corrupt left wing counties is a disgrace and the Fed's should get involved. In my county, St John's, they completed the recount and the most any single candidate's number of votes changed by was a whopping 8 votes.
  22. When they determine it is an AR I want one as if Glock made an AR it would be super reliable
  23. Could have been much worse, and I know it is cold but would have been much worse if a few days before Election Day rather than after.
  24. The only way this will ever happen is if SCOTUS grows a pair and makes it the law of the land by saying all others violate the Constitution.
  25. A couple of NY law makers want to make it mandatory to have your social media accounts and search history for the last three years reviewed before you can have a gun. Guess in trying to kill the 2nd Amendment they want to kill the 1st Amendment as well. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2018/11/daniel-zimmerman/coming-to-an-anti-gun-state-near-you-ny-pols-want-social-media-checks-before-buying-guns/
