Curious. How does a revolver retain 9mm rounds in the cylinders without moon clips?

When I was doing construction in Central NJ (North Jersey to me now), I used to tip the DPW people in lots of towns all over the middle of the state. It's amazing how large a pile of construction debris will disappear with the regular trash pickup for a $20 bill. Of course that was 20 years ago, I'm sure the tip has gone up by now. Cheaper than a dumpster.

What ever happened to operation strikeforce? I haven't heard any updates since the announcement of the new project almost a year ago. If it's still active, you might want to report your experience to them.

I never understood why anybody put any work into raking leaves. A lawnmower will mulch them into non-existence with much less work. Plus, leaves are part of the natural environment. I don't do anything with mine - they blow away eventually. Of course, I don't have any neighbors to complain. I read the original post and thought we were talking about a 5' high pile of leaves and snow. After seeing the pictures, I realize we're talking about a 5' WIDE and 1' HIGH pile of leaves and snow. I'd drive over it if it was my driveway but if you need it gone, 5 minutes with a shovel should do it. City People

Wonder what would happen if you downloaded the forms from the NJSP website, filled everything out, did the online background check and mailed your paperwork in certified mail. They could not claim that they never received them.

NJ legal or not, it seems like it defeats both the purpose of a flash hider and of a muzzle break A muzzle break directs the gasses of combustion backwards to counteract the rifle's recoil. This device re-directs those gasses forward - defeating the muzzle break. A flash hider directs the flash down or to the side out of the shooter's line of sight. This device throws the flash forward again - as if there was no flash hider.

Some manufacturer's will re-stamp your serial number on a repaired gun if they replace the part with the serial number. Same gun, same serial number, no need for a new permit.

I bought my second Mosin Nagant. This thing shoots terribly. 8" groups at 50 yards. The headspace is good, the rifling looks clean and crisp with an LED on the other end of the barrel. The barrel has been crowned and that looks to be in good condition. I was frustrated and decided to just see how much penetration the gun has and caught a bullet in a pressure treated 6x6 block. (It had passed through 3 other 6x6 blocks first). The bullet I dug out had a scratch next to one of the rifling marks. So I shot a few more times and found the same mark on the bullet in the same place. It appears that there is damage in the barrel that's causing this scratch but I can't see it with the naked eye. I'm wondering if whatever is causing this scratch might be the cause of the inaccuracy. Maybe not but I can't find anything else that's causing such terrible groups. The whole gun cost me $120 so I'm not going to put much money into a repair - if it's even possible. Anybody have a guess what's really happening here and is there anything I can do about it?

Russia more free than NJ. Amazing. http://rt.com/news/206703-russia-guns-self-defense/

It was said earlier but 19 states filed amicus briefs with the Supreme Court supporting the Drake Case. SCOTUS still chose not to hear the case.

So True! Ridiculous, silly spork of a gun with no real usefulness. I love mine! To answer the OP's question: I have an H&R Topper single shot breach break in .410. Nice little gun and appropriate for small game. I can kill a rabbit just as good as with something bigger and I can find the whole rabbit when I'm done.

Sold out as of 5:45pm. But it was up for a long time. I've noticed more .22 and better prices in just the last 3 weeks all over the internet. Maybe we're getting back to normal.

California is not NJ. A tiny part of California is urban. A few counties are suburbs. The majority of the state is rural. Most of NJ is urban or suburbs. There are only a few small pockets of rural areas. Most people who grow up in the country grow up around guns. If they don't have guns, most neighbors, uncles, and friends families do. Most who grow up in the country are exposed to hunting even if they don't hunt. Country folk are comfortable with guns. Most who grow up in the city only have experiences with guns that involve crime. City people are not comfortable with guns. California: 231 residents per square mile NJ: 1019 residents per square mile. This is why California and NY fight and NJ doesn't.

I thought the judge who made the ruling would review DC's new law to see if it complied with his order. The deadline to comply was Oct 15th. Is this review actually going to happen because DC clearly has violated the intent of his order?

Didn't do Split Rock but I was in Lebanon last weekend. I hadn't been to a show in aver 6 months. Prices have dropped a lot on guns - I was surprised. Still a little above pre-panic prices but it was good to see.

Butches is very good in Vineland but that's a little farther than you wanted to travel. I've bought two guns from Bellplain Supply in the last couple of years. They've received some negative feedback here for being hard to get along with and for pushing only Browning products but I didn't have that experience at all. I was happy with the service and prices.

And how many bb's can you pour into the toy? If it uses a CO2 cartridge and is semi-auto it could be an assault weapon if it will hold more than 15 bb's. I can't WAIT to get out!

Magnawing got it right. Extermination companies are scared of fines or law suites if the treat termites the way that works - flooding the soil around the foundation. The big chain companies won't do it and have bait systems that just don't work.

I was just thinking what you could do with a 5 gallon bucket of that glow in the dark paint. At $1,600 I probably won't end up trying it.

To sum up: I need a backstop. I'm poisoning the earth with lead bullets. I need something to hide behind so passers-by can't see me. Somebody (probably me) misspelled R-I-C-O-C-H-E-T. And only one picture of somebody's target. PLEASE...SHOW ME YOUR TARGETS!

I've used the bottles of touch-up paint from the automotive store - usually applied with a tiny paintbrush and then cleaned up the overpainted edges with a razor blade after the paint is dry.

I have no idea who writes the stuff behind the scenes. NJAC 13:54 - the definition of "justfiable need" was first proposed in the NJ Register by the NJSP and is re-adopted by the NJSP every 7 years. So whoever writes it, the NJSP does propose and adopt some of it.

half my guns were "gunsmith specials". I've bought a few from gun shows that were missing parts or had bad furniture. I've asked for "project guns" at gun shops and found a few. I've "inherited" a few others that needed work. I've gotten most to function. A few I pieced out for parts on ebay and at least got most of my cost back. Don't expect too much for this. Gunsmith specials are usually pretty cheap. I've paid less than $50 for several and I don't think I've ever paid over $100 for a project gun.

This amendment will pass but it' won't be the law. Just like "justifiable need" the AG or NJSP will pass regulations that clarify who will be kept in jail pre trial and for what charges. This will be codified in the NJAC and will become the law the judges follow. I guarantee it will list "possession of a firearm", "assault weapons", hollow point bullets" and lots of other gun related crimes on the "don't let them out" list.

I just bought a browning buckmark for my 15yo daughter to shoot. She wasn't comfortable with my other guns but likes the .22. But you're daughter's a long way from 15. I'd stick to the cricket or similar.
