  1. Shit you guys are making me feel old. The day my daughter was born was when I got my first grey hair and it accelerated from there
  2. Waste of time. This state is too hoplophobic and corrupt to follow a law without an agenda
  3. 2.5 hours? Sounds pretty high level. I think NRA PPOH is more beneficial for this context
  4. Make sure your rifle is sighted in properly and you are using the ammo you used to sight in. Wash with scent elimination soap and use on hair. Use scent eliminating deodorant. Wear layers if you are going to do a lot of scouting / stalking as you do not want to sweat too much as you will get cold later. Try and not get too excited when you get a shot and exhale slowly as you squeeze off. Make sure you follow the regs in NY in case you run into fish and game and they are douche bags like jersey
  5. I was looking for someone who had taken one of the group classes. Not private. No one here has taken any of the group classes?
  6. Bullet buttons suck. They also suck to remove because they use some special Klingon lock tite on the freakin things. I took mine off before the movers backed the truck into the driveway
  7. Anybody have any feedback on the more advanced training classes at RTSP please PM me. Any constructive feedback would be great. Thanks Dman2112
  8. I have had similar experiences there as well. But I also have had great experiences with the range officer staff. I think the RO staff rocks. Also Anika is very good as well. I think Pete is a stand up guy to try and make it right if he follows through. That said, I think overall its tough to hire a gun shop counter guy who knows what the hell he is talking about and to be able to afford him / her. Retail just sucks. But there are thinks RTSP can do to "professionalize" what they have to work with. Take it from someone who dealt with unions and riots and strikes and ran engineering departments full of "children" There is also a little of the "Jersey Attitude" to contend with as well. I think the most constructive feedback to RTSP would be to come of with "policies and procedures" for their retail environment that all employees must follow and then reward them when they do consistently. That is the best way to handle these types of employees. I had similar experiences in other states that I lived as well so its not unique. Ho
  9. This would assume that NJ is a Rule Of Law state. It is not so gun laws will just get worse. You will never be able to challenge the ones in the dictatorship
  10. Does anyone know if this is legal in PRNJ? CDNN has a decent sale on them. No muzzle device. I think the stock folds but it is a fixed stock in terms of LOP. Thoughts?
  11. I thought it was a permit to pee
  12. Good thing ANJRPC and NJ2AS are in the case. Sick the "task force" on em. LOL

    Old school. Everyone's intellectual contributions are important. No matter how small

    Hey Shane. You don't know a source for used machinist lathes do you? I'm looking for one that was not used in a production line (not abused)
  17. dman2112 replied to dman2112's topic in Rifles
    Ahhh I can see the application now where you would need such strength in a Mil application where the rifle is abused (dropped off cliffs, etc ) and you need to retain zero and not worry about the scope mount tearing off. . But just to handle recoil that's way overkill. My rifle will sit on a shooting bench for its lifetime. Also the formulas are in the spec mentioned above. You look up a value based on the bolt grade in a table and plug it into the formula. It's the same formula for all fasteners. Even if I was building a skyscraper and wanted to join two I beams. It's just a PITA to copy and past it in my iPhone. Go ahead and google it and you'll find it. Nice work.

    Shane. These are ATSM standards. Not just formulas from a text book. It's standard study for and ME Junior year. Specifically relevant would ASTM A193. Which you can google and peruse. These are industry standards for yield and tensile strength which translate to overall shear strength. Also my EGW rail is the machined HD version T7075. I think it was 85. I appreciate your experience, but don't knock someone who holds a PE license when you are not sure of the content.

    Looks like Shane has a ton of experience over torquing and breaking shit
  20. dman2112 replied to dman2112's topic in Rifles
    Iggy. Nice! Too funny. I have the same rifle with a B&C stock and a Timney. I am thinking if rebarreling it in 300WSM for hunting larger game. Plus I have too much other stuff that shoots .223
  21. dman2112 replied to dman2112's topic in Rifles
    Shane. Your reading too many gun mags. I'm an MSEE. The sheer strength of a #6 grade 8 screw torqued at 22 in lbs is a proof load of 120,000 psi and a clamp load of about 822 lbs. which means you could use the rail screws as action screws on a 308 if you did not torque them beyond 22 in lbs
  22. dman2112 replied to dman2112's topic in Rifles
    Not if you coat with red loc tite. Also. It's a .308. I threw my Thompson around like a rag doll rolling around the red dirt hunting in Africa and never lost zero
