"Finding a dead deer and cutting off the antlers is illegal."I see this done everyday almost in Burlington County. Quite a few "headless" deer lying on the sides of the road.

I have the Blue Force VCAS padded sling with QD ring mounts.

I thought I was talking about the same thing. All can be gas or piston system, but the lengths were Carbine, Mid, and Rifle. With Rifle having the 20"+ barrels.

Tommy R. I did mention it above. Fog light vs. driving light. Fog puts out a wider beam.

Thank you. I was told to go by carbine (short length), a mid-length gas system (i.e. my M&P15T), and then long (rifle).

I believe as long as they are 55 watt DOT approved. If you put on KC or Hella 150watt ones they have to be covered and for offroad use only. I have 55watt Hella (Rallye 4000) fog lights on the front of my truck. I drive on very dark country roads and like the fog vs. driving beam because the fog beam is wider and I can see deer on the sides of the road. Where as the driving light is for distance. S.

Thanks HE. One of my co-workers recommended the M&P15T to me. He also recommended a LWRC or Noveske too as a first AR. "um, No". Without your expert advise (and others here) I would not have not have learned as much about getting the Aimpoint, sling, etc. For as often (or as little chance I get) to shoot my AR, I think it is okay for my needs right now. Would I like to eventually build another one? Sure. Do I have the time or skills to do it? Not right now. You say carbine, but my AR is a mid-length rifle. Are we talking about the same thing? I wish I could post a picture of it in the AR photo section.....

KoQ- I went with the M&P 15T for my first AR. I knew nothing really about AR's until I started talking to some guys at work. The M&P 15T is pretty decent gun for what it is and the price. I have since added an Aimpoint Pro (thanks to HE), a VCAS sling, and a flashlight. I don't think you can go wrong with this gun if you are not looking to build your own. S.

I knew you were a reasonable guy. I agree with you 100%. BTW, He has not been fired.

HE- I agree with you to a certain extent, but stuff happens and people forget things. Especially coming from a free state (PA). Let me run this scenario by you: A LEO who left his duty weapon on the rear bumper of his vehicle before his shift started. He drove off and his duty weapon fell off his vehicle. When he realized he didn't have it and went back the gun was gone. Still yet to be recovered I believe. Does your "If you are so pre-occupied, scatterbrained, or careless that can forget where your gun is, you need to seriously re-evaluate your mindset and make some significant changes to how and if you carry/own firearms" still apply? Should this officer be fired or just suspended?

Carhartt or Lee cargo jeans. Very comfy. I like 'em because me cellphone fits in the side pocket nicely.

Bonnie Watson Coleman is the biggest POS. Her two "boys" are the reason they came up with the new law that you cannot ask for a background check on a job applicant until AFTER you offer the person a job. Her two fine "boys" are pillars of the community, in jail for armed robbery. She came up with the law so when they get out they can get jobs. And she is running for Rush Holt's seat in Congess. The liberal dopes from Mercer and Hunterdon County will vote her in..... Look at this trifecta for the 15th District: Shirley Turner, Bonnie Watson Coleman, and Reed Gusciora. If Trenton wasn't in this 15th District, it would be Republican again. I cannot believe that there is not enough Republicans on Mercer/Hunterdon counties to unseat these three crooks.

I believe, if they article is correct, he had 30 round mags also. So he will get jammed up on them. If they were in the safe, I hope it gets surpressed. I wish we knew more details about why there was a rush to open the safe. Just because he denied them access to it should not be sufficient reason to pry it open. Also, according to the aricle the neighbors said he was a gun collector.

What is your riding style? Standard, Sportbike, Cruiser, Sport-touring, Touring, Hooligan, etc. Motor? V-twin, Triple, In-line 4? Could be any of the above: Suzuki V-Strom Kawasaki Versys Triump Sprint ST or GT First time bike, you may want low seat. Unfortunately, that will leave with cruisers or $$$ Harley's.

I cannot make this Thursday night; previous committment. Wasn't the last Meet & Greet on a Saturday night?

Look at the failure of the Republican party in NJ. They cannot even put up a viable candidate to run against Cory Booker or for Rush Holt's seat in the House. They put up some fossil against Booker and a no-name against Holt. This is how sad the Republican party has fallen in this state. The only chance for a seat in the House is the one being given up by Jon Runyon. Tom MacArthur vs. Democrat Aimee Belgard. She doesn't even have one positive ad in south Jersey on what her platform is. All she does is bash MacArthur as being wealthy and out-of-touch. Pathetic.

Count me in.

Basedop- If you want to get anywhere in NJ, you will need to learn how to drive. 2nd, you will need a vehicle to transport any firearm you have. I would not recommend taking a Mosin on the transit line. 3rd, once you are here, go to any gun show in PA. Two of them are the Philadelphia National Guard Armory and the big one (Oaks, PA) will have plenty of Mosin rifles to purchase. Oaks was just this past weekend. There were Mosin's (NIB) new-in-box and plenty of used ones. 4th, plenty of us are members of Range 14. Let one of use know and we could guest you in. S.

I plan to be there.

Unfortunately, and hear me out.....I would have liked to have seen this go to trial and have her take this fight to the Supreme Court. That is the only way our NJ unconstitutional gun carry law will be overturned. By settling for PTI this case will never go to trial and never to the Supreme Court. That is why the PO's gave in to PTI. Now the case just goes away....

The article completely contradicts itself. "Gun buyback programs are not going to reduce murders in cities like Newark and Camden. Studies have found that buyback programs don't have much effect overall on either gun crime or gun-related injury rates. They don't directly target the guns that are more likely to be used in violence, and in general, the guns collected haven't overlapped much with crime guns. These are old weapons that some middle-aged guy found in his basement. What criminal is going to trade in his $700 Bushmaster for $250 from the state?" vs. "The mandatory buybacks were also accompanied by a uniform national system for licensing and registering firearms. Gun owners have to present a "genuine reason" to buy a weapon. A claim of self-defense isn't enough unless you have an occupational need to carry a gun. We understand this is not going to happen. Neither American courts nor most of the public would support it. As a nation we remain wedded to the delusion that gun ownership stops crime." Saying buybacks do nothing in crime riddled cities, but we should have mandatory buy backs like Australia? Last time I checked the gov't didn't buy my guns. I did. So it would just be a turn in of guns. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights is my "genuine reason" to own a firearm. The right to protect myself, my family, and my property is good enough reason. These liberal loons want to completely dismantle the Constitution and we are slowly allowing them to do it.

Yeap, looks the same as yours, just with a darker point on the top of his head. I see you are in Medford Lakes. I am 20 minutes from there. Is your GSD dog friendly?

Jaws - that looks like mine! Mine has a darker 'widows peak' on the top of his head though. I call him my "Eddie Munster" dog. I do not allow mine on the couch. My bed is fine, but not the couch.

Walt of Destiny- "Wanna stop them from destroying stuff? Walk them on a leash for a couple of miles. Every day. Until you both are exhausted." Exactly. I try to walk/run mine for a couple of miles each day at a park. Contantly throwing a stick or ball with him. If I cannot run him at the park, we play catch until my arm falls off. I also take him swimming for exercise. Mine has never destroyed any shoes. The only thing I caught him doing as a pup was chewing on the bottom step of the staircase in my home. He has always had plenty of toys (Kongs too). He has stuffed animals too until he attempts to shred them. I have him fully crate trained. He comes and goes from his crate as he pleases. I have not had to lock him in there since he was a pup. It is like his inside doghouse. He will go lay down in his crate on his own. Mine does have a form of OCD. Unfortunately, he bites himself repeatedly on his back leg. So bad sometimes it gets infected. He goes on meds, it gets better for a few months, then I catch him biting his leg again. The Vet says he is bored which could be true, but since he is not 'dog friendly' I cannot take the chance in adopting a buddy for him. I wish I could post a picture of him.
