Money for old/broken guns.
and if there's any of those signs you see some townships or police depts use......many of those have cameras built into them. or they just need to park a patrol vehicle with an alper system mounted and they'll have it all.

Expanding Full Metal Jacket Ammo
i have my stuff here at home and at work loaded with critical defense. knowing how antigun nj is i can easily imagine a prosecutor turning those into hollowpoints. i also had never heard of this kind of ammo before, and it seemed like it'd make a good conversation. and i'd learn a bit too.

guys with corrected vision
yaknow? for some reason that is the main episode of twilight zone that sticks in my head. the other one is the ugly doctors/nurses episode i hadn't thought of eye surgery...but i'm also kinda afraid of it......

guys with corrected vision
so something i know i've been overlooking...and strongly suspect that many of you are too. what or how do you prep to keep seeing? i personally wear contacts, and have 1 pair of eyeglasses that i wear to see before/after i put in/take out my contacts. so what do you guys keep to be ready just in case? what's a good robust frame for eyeglasses?

i'm thinking this guy was kinda lucky

i'm thinking this guy was kinda lucky
i've never been in a spin. i was taught how to do them, and only had to verbalize how to recover. he was doing power-on stalls, so i think that's why no power reduction. i watched the thing twice. watching again now. i feel he was slightly too fast on throttle application on takeoff roll. even on that first stall, it looked like he applied full left aileron. big mistake. second one he went almost full right aileron. i find that kinda curious, 'cause when my instructors trained me on stalls, if a wing was gonna drop, it was almost always the same wing. this was 2 stalls, different wing dropped each time. and wrong inputs. you're right, he must've remembered and gotten onto the rudder because he didn't turn himself into a lawndart. no, he probable wouldn't have done those stalls if he hadn't planned on uploading a video. one thing i've ALWAYS done, is if i had anything outta the ordinary...like the electrical system failure and subsequent landing with no flaps, or the partial engine failure....anything......i make it a point to call my cfi friend and talk it over with him. i tell him what happened, what i did, and my reasoning as to why i did what i did. and he gives me feedback. not cfi to student feedback. father to son, or brother to brother feedback. i kinda hope this guy went to his cfi and got some further stall training, 'cause he was within a minute of being dead.....and had he stalled on takeoff, neither of those recoveries would've saved him.

Can I travel to the range with loaded magazines in a separate locked container than my firearm?
most instructors will tell you that this is a no-go. i feel it's a super grey area. most police in nj are anti-gun. not all, but most. you've also gotta remember that it is virtually impossible for the officer on the street to know all the laws/statutes. that'd be like expecting your mechanic to know every fix for every code on your car all the time. i feel it's a grey area, 'cause if you read the statutes, they all tell us what we can't do, not what we can do. there's nothing saying that the mag has to be unloaded. but again...grey area. i feel that especially these days, they'll err on the side of caution if they see loaded mags and you're gonna take the ride. me personally, i will load my mags, and put them in a sleeve in the case designed for them, then close/lock the case. the key here is to have everything outta sight. if i'm in my truck, my stuff's all at the tail end of the truck(dam thing's so long that i feel the front and back are in different zip codes, lol) and covered up. i keep an old quilt in the truck specifically for this purpose. if i'm in my car, pretty much the same deal. nothing relating to firearms, not even an ammo box is left visible when i'm driving. i don't drive dead nuts on speed limits, but i also don't drive like 20 year old cap anymore either. grey man driving. anyway.......you can ask 100 people this question, and get 99 different answers. best is for you to assess your risk factors, and if you feel it's worth the possible risk to save a few minutes at the range to transport em loaded. also....for the sake of my paranoid side.........bear in mind I AM NOT A LAWYER. these are just my takes on this topic.

BIGGEST risk is loss of more rights as they try to take them to keep us safe.

Best work/daily/range pants
it's looking like i'm onna be REALLY stress testing some of those lapg pants.....or go back to the 511 tactical pants. my uniform service keeps sneaking the price up. i'm payin amost 50 bucks a week now. it started off at 36 a week. at the current pricing, it would behoove me to go out, buy 7 pairs of my own pants, and do work laundry once a week. tossing around which pants to use. i already know the 511's are durable. i got 8 years outta my first 5 pairs of those. 8 years of being worn every day in a repair shop, doing yardwork, etc.

Air Pistol -NOT Airsoft
it's not a bogus argument. i've got an airsoft 1911 that is identical to a real one 'cept the orange tip. they'd not be able to id in a reasonable time, 'specially if i removed the orange tip.
