I better get to saving.
$24k doesn't even get you a rifle. I think they should lower the price to $23k.

I was wondering the same thing. Haven't heard word one. Northjersey, do you know what's going on?

Air rifle
An airgun is considered the same as a firearm. Don't shoot it anywhere you wouldn't shoot a firearm. Although I'd ask, if an airgun goes off in a basement and no one is there to hear it, did it go off?

Yet another poll. 6ABC Philly
Looks like we're winning by a good margin. I cannot imagine for the life of me why a family would allow itself to be paraded around for political purposes. It would just keep the wounds open. If it were me, I'd want to disappear with my wife and any remaining kids and try to heal in peace. If we had no other kids, I don't see how we could continue with our lives.

What gun lube/cleaner are you guys using?
Not to suggest that the military always gets things right, like forgetting to order body armor for its troops, but it seems their weapons go through a lot more abuse than ours. Getting dunked in salt water, soaked with sweat, clogged with sand, etc. I'm not aware of any issue of M4s rusting. But then again, all I know about the military I learned from watching Zero Dark Thirty. Can anyone who actually served comment on the efficacy of Breakfree? Do guns that have been dunked in saltwater get special treatment beyond being rinsed and CLP'ed?

Results of 16000 LEOs polled regarding Gun Control
It seems almost too good to be true. Looking at the Policeone website, it seems pretty nonpolitical. It definitely shows that police chiefs reflect the opinions of their political masters more so than of the rank and file.

Place to skeet shoot
Would you consider sporting clays, or are you set on skeet? Lehigh Valley has a beautiful sporting clays course.

What gun lube/cleaner are you guys using?
Any advantage of solvent and then lube vs just Breakfree? I believe the military uses Breakfree, and if it was insufficient, we should know by now.

Toronto - 19yo man sexually assaulted by group of women
Reminds me of a bar we go to in s. Dakota while pheasant hunting. We call the bartender 4x4, which are her approximate dimensions. If you want to see horny, go to small town SD. They're so starved for choice that they home in on fresh blood like those Austin Power sharks with lasers on their heads.

People sign petition to repeal the 2nd Amendment (VIDEO)
I actually have more respect for these morons than I do for Feinstein et al. At least they're honest about what they're trying to do, rather than trying to trick Americans into their utopian goal. I wish them luck and godspeed. Not.

That's why he needs more than 7 rounds. Rapists are harder to kill than deer. What's with all these guys being raped by their hot women teachers? And more importantly, where were these cougars when I was in high school?

Mine took two months recently. I got the special grade.

A4001: Requires firearms endorsement on DL IDs *UPDATED*
For 2, does this mean that in another Essex fiasco, we'd essentially be indefinitely unable to drive? For 5, are we required to produce any drivers license upon request? What if we're jogging and didn't bring our wallet? Is this the next step toward, "papers please?" I doubt this will pass, but it's terrifying that anyone would even propose this.

NICS Solutions and my letter to MPC
I believe it originated in the Reconstruction period South, when attempts were made to prevent freed slaves from being armed by banning the inexpensive firearms they could afford.

Get Home Bag, what's in yours?
Ok, I'm assuming the condoms are to be used as emergency canteens? Are there uses for the tampons and pads other that the obvious? Instead of a wrist rocket, why not a small air rifle? I can't hit s$&$ with my sling shot, but I can get consistent head shots on squirrels at 20 yards with my air rifle. What do you carry for water treatment? After Sandy, I bought a bottle of tincture of iodine, because supposedly it lasts forever. I just posted this minutes ago in another thread, but the Savage 24c is great. It takes down into a compact little package, and with .22 and 20 gauge barrels, it can take all sorts of ammo to take down anything from a mouse up to a deer.

.22 long
I've been experimenting with all of these, along with 20 gauge shot and rifled slugs with my recently acquired Savage 24c. It's so handy. If had a bug out bag, I would tuck it in there.
-
.22 long
One more variant, the Aguila Colobris. They get such good reviews on midway, but I can't get them to group at all. If I were in a place where I could shoot pests, I'd go with the shorts. Or the Winchester .22 birdshot. Those are great. I can get 4-5 pellets in a 6 inch space at 25 yards.
-
.22 long
Does anyone use it? Is there any reason to shoot it except for old guns that are chambered specifically for it? I bought some at Jim Flynn's today just to try it out. I though it would be intermediate between .22 short and .22LR, but I was wrong. It seems to be just a .22LR with a smaller bullet. Shoots fine. I think I'll just hold on to it for novelty value.

Mosin M44 arrived!
Finally my NICS check cleared, and I was able to pick up and try my new M44. It is a beast and didn't disappoint me with its ability to spit dragon fire. A couple of questions. 1) It's stamped "Made in Russia." (bought from Aimsurplus.) Has anyone else seen this? It's obviously not original, so kind of annoying. 2) I shot both Russian surplus and Winchester factory ammo. Needless to say, the Winchester was much more accurate. Is there any benefit in trying different sources of surplus ammo in hopes of finding one that's close to factory, or is it just a given that surplus will be inaccurate.

That's correct. It's called Langar. Anyone of any religion is welcome.

I think it's too late to get on the ballot, but several of us are running and can use our support. I'll be donating.

Sikh suing Cali over AWB
I know quite a few Sikhs. Thing about this for a second. They tend to be very big. They are by far more likely to have military and fighting experience than the average Indian. They are universally teased in American schools. I've never heard of one beating the crap out of one of his teasers. Respect.

Connecticut legislators trample 2nd Amendment
When I woke up this morning, I had to decide between walking around with a pit in my stomach all day or not. So, I decided to drink lots of coffee and came up with this Pollyanna theory. I think this is a good thing. If the wording is correctly reported, it bans 10 round magazines ("10 or more...") between that and the one characteristic test, I think it's on very shaky Constitutional ground. Between this and the NY Safe Act, I see a consolidated case barreling toward SCOTUS, and we've heard that Scalia is waiting with open arms. Now, look at the "membership" section in the link below. Notice those hale and lovely gentlewomen on the bottom? They will be there for a long time to come, and we may not see another 5-4 pro-gun SCOTUS in our lifetime. So, let's get CCW and AWB in front of them ASAP. I think we can win this. Once we lose Scalia, we may be in for a long night. I am not religious, but if I were, I would literally pray for Scalia's health every night. What an f'ed up political system we have. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Us_supreme_court
