So...Dragon's Breath rounds in the home defense shotgun?

Stringing them horizontally, though

"However, washing the bags, either by hand or in a washing machine, eliminated 99.9 percent of the pathogens. " Because there is no environmental impact at all to washing 100 billion (US consumption estimate) plastic bags every year?

I believe a lobotomy is a prerequisite for appearing on the show.

Longer sight radius will give you more accuracy, all other things being equal. 6" is always a good choice for an accurate range revolver. There are other factors that may favor shorter barrels, but you'll give up some accuracy. It's always a trade off.

I believe Thunder Mountain in Ringwood and the Lehigh Valley sporting clays facility rent shotguns, if you want to try before you buy.

I flew the 99's charity poker run today, and was tickled to see a Gun For Hire $250 range package on the prize table, where the poker run wrapped up at Morristown Airport. It was one of the better prizes, and it got snapped up quickly...long before the pair of jacks I was holding got me to the prize table. I had to leave with a gift basket of assorted chocolates. Thanks for supporting a good cause!

It's helpful to go into UPS and/or the post office with both their policies and the applicable federal law printed out (I no longer have the links but had in the past found it all online). Whoever you deal with first is likely to assume it can't possibly be legal to ship to yourself. Your printouts are meant to be enough to convince them to go look it up for themselves, or else you must ask for a supervisor who will. It's also good to have a backup plan, as some locations flat out refuse to ship, even when shown it's legal. I thought it was a requirement that you had to be present to sign at time of shipping, and sign again when the package was received (so ship the day before you fly, so you'll be in NJ in time to receive). However, it was posted further up in the thread that maybe that isn't a requirement...

PM sent!

Whoa...this sent me running to the manufacturers website! I ran my vin number and I'm not affected. The cars with the bad parts were built between Feb 29 and May 3. Thanks for the heads-up

Bump. Anyone with a chrono want to trade for some range time? I'll look into the ProChrono. I can't use the Magnetospeed with the pistols I need to chrono. Thanks.

I'm a first-time Outback owner; got my 2016 last November. I've been very happy with it. I commute 90 miles a day, so liked it's reputation as a car that will last. I'm not getting the 33 mpg highway that was advertised, but I'm averaging 27, maybe 28 mpg; commute is about 80% highway, so being a bit below 33 is to be expected. Car is comfortable, rides well, looks good in my opinion, I love how the roof rack crossbars fold into the side rails when not in use to improve mileage and reduce wind noise. I'm still finding other nice design surprises as well. One thing I didn't realize (hadn't done quite enough homework, I guess) is that because the drive train is full-time all wheel drive, the tires have to match very closely. Subaru insists on rotating them at every oil change. I punctured a tire in a spot that couldn't be patched when the car was less than two weeks old. Not the car's fault--it was just a bit of bad luck--and I was pissed off that I had to buy a new tire to replace a new tire. Then it was explained to me that if the tires weren't all so new, I'd have had to replace all four, which is the usual scenario when a tire has to be replaced on a Subaru. So someday, that will probably suck...but otherwise I have no complaints.

Impossible!! There are lots of guns in Newark; surely all of the good citizens possessing them have FIDs Going back to the OPs problem, it's not that FIDs aren't accepted by the DMV-they are, as long as the name matches precisely with the name on the DL. If they don't match precisely, some DMV locations won't accept it.

Which Staples? We should have her laminate all of our cards.

Six days ago I renewed my driver's license at the Oakland DMV. My DL has my middle initial; my FID has my full middle name. I also threw into the mix my pilot certificate showing my old address which was in a different county entirely (the FAA doesn't care, as long as they have your current address in their records). The clerk glanced at everything, then waved me right through. I left with my new license. I suspect the various DMV locations are staffed with people with varying levels of understanding and interest...much like the various PD's we have to deal with.

April 30? I missed it! I wasn't ready!

I stopped by Ottomanellis in Woodland Park today. I was quoted an eye-watering $90 for a transfer! I was so surprised, I had them repeat it three times to make sure I got it right. I forgot to ask if that included NICS or not--I was already headed out the door by that point.

The hint should come from you...I've no idea how you come up with some of this stuff. One would expect extraordinary evidence to back up such an absurd claim, but I found your arguments uncompelling and not particularly accurate. In particular, of the three specific examples you cited to back your position, two haven't happened (a Gore presidency, and a H. Clinton presidency).

Think harder.

I'm right handed, left eye dominant. For precision pistol and precision rifle events (Bullseye or international pistol events, 3-position rifle, high power rifle, sporting rifle) I shoot right handed, using my right eye, with my left eye obscured with a translucent blinder (could be scotch tape, or a flip down translucent blinder on the glasses). For action pistol events, I shoot with both eyes open, neither eye obscured. The handgun sights will naturally align with my left eye--I don't have to think about it. This has worked well for me in competition over the years. I've not had occasion to try action rifle events, so I'm not sure how I'd approach that. I haven't yet found a solution that works for me in trap shooting. It's very helpful to shoot with both eyes open in trap, especially for doubles, but it doesn't work well if you are cross dominant. I wasn't improving while shooting right handed with my right eye only, so two years ago, I switched to shooting trap left handed, with both eyes open. Maybe I'm to old to make the switch--my left hand scores have only just come up to where my right hand scores used to be, and they've leveled off there. And the scores aren't very good...I'm debating whether I should go back to shooting right handed, with my right eye only. And in case you are wondering why the translucent blinder is a good idea if you aren't using both eyes, it's because it allows light to reach both eyes, even though you are only sighting with one. The eyes are used to working as a pair; if you close one, or obscure it with an opaque blinder, the eye in the dark will start to dilate...and in turn the eye you are using to aim will also dilate, even though it shouldn't, because it is already exposed to ambient light. So your vision in your aiming eye won't be as acute as it should be. There are a couple of threads on this board about eye doctors who understand the needs of shooters. If you wear prescription eyewear, I encourage you to find one. If you want to have shooting glasses made for pistol shooting, take in your pistol slide (only) and hold it up at the distance it would normally be from your eye while the doc switches lenses in the phoropter until you find the lens that makes the front sight razor sharp. Also bring in a dot sight, if you use one, and work with the astigmatism correction until the dot is perfectly circular, and sharp. It makes a big difference in your scores!

Groan...... We need a seven-day waiting period on puns! :-)

Rifle is still an NCAA sport: http://www.ncaa.com/sports/rifle An extremely competitive one at that.

It's going to look exactly like every other Glock that has ever been made, regardless of model or caliber. :-)

The gun wanders for everyone--even world-class shooters. Accept it, and learn how to work with it. Specifically, read about 'minimum arc of movement'. Here is one link: http://www.bullseyepistol.com/chapter1.htm There are others. Learn how much time you have after putting the gun on target, before you settle down into your minimum arc of movement, and learn how long you have before the arc increases. Then make sure each shot breaks cleanly while you are within your minimum arc. You can't do better than that...attempting otherwise leads to worse results. With practice your minimum arc gets smaller, and that's how you get more precise in your shooting.

Indeed. In fact, I find it most prudent to always assume any given attorney is a criminal.
