I could also be wrong, but I thought occupying/using the property without your permission for a certain number of years would suffice. I don't know what that certain number would be, but it's more than a few. I'd not heard of a requirement to also pay taxes on it...I'm not sure how that could happen prior to an actual transfer of the property.

I'm bumping this thread because I received a quarterly email from the Amazon Smile program, noting that ANJRPC received $800 this quarter, and a little over $6000 since they registered as an Amazon Smile charity. Very little of that came from me, I don't use Amazon all that often, but I helped a little... There are other pro-gun organizations registered with Amazon Smile as well. Pick one you like. Use it whenever you buy from Amazon. It costs you nothing. Amazon isn't particularly gun friendly, so this is an easy and fun way to make Bezos throw a little money towards 2nd amendment causes!

This. Standard capacity is what the manufacturer designed the gun to work with, and what the gun typically ships with by default. There is no other possible definition of 'standard'. So standard capacity for an AR is 30 rounds. For a Glock 17, it's 17 rounds. Anything less than what the manufacturer intended is reduced capacity.

Yes, pick up spent brass and reload it. Start saving your brass now, and if others are shooting and not saving it (and the range isn't claiming it), pick it up and save it as well. It's the first step in reloading, and it's free! Buying new brass to reload can yield very high quality reloads--you benefit from the consistency of the cases being from not just the same manufacturer, but probably also the same production lot--but it adds a lot of cost. People will more typically do it for precision rifle loads, and less often for precision pistol loads where every bit of consistency matters. For plinking or informal practice loads, you'll be fine picking up, or buying, mixed brass, and you'll save a good bit of money. Pistol brass, in particular, can be loaded a LOT of times if you aren't cranking out maximum loads...and there is rarely a reason to do that. Rifle brass is more life-limited. Any good reloading book will tell you and show you what to watch out for, so that you don't load a case one too many times...

True--and it's a good warning to get out there. It's still possible to track you even with TOR routing everything through three countries, and It's been done, certainly, but it is difficult enough that they really have to want to do it. That generally means it is part of an active criminal investigation. Personally, I think everyone in NJ has a civic obligation to peek at as many 'forbidden' (but really legal) websites as possible just to screw with the AG's office.

The site works fine with the TOR browser. Tor Browser It's free and reliable. NJ has no right to regulate your internet access.

So attendance at pro soccer games in the US during the pandemic has actually gone up?

Curling is the only Olympic sport in which you can participate without setting down your beer.

Nah, those are the cops. The bullseye shooters are the ones shooting 2” groups at 25 yards

I was at work in Kenilworth; near as I can tell I parked and turned off my radio only a minute or two before the first plane hit. I was running between meetings all morning; and between each meeting I sensed that the building was getting quieter, people were gathering in groups, fewer and fewer people were actually working. By mid-morning, I passed someone in the hall who said a light plane had hit one of the towers, an hour later more accurate information was trickling into the meetings. Finally at noon I was out of meetings and hearing a more complete picture. The managers were told to send our teams home, but after I did that I just sat in my office looking for news...finally found some when it occurred to me to search websites outside of the northeast, since all of the local news sites were largely unreachable. I followed the reporting on the Miami Herald website for a few hours. I was scheduled to give blood the next day at the site where I was based, but I remembered the blood drive was at another one of our sites on the 11th, so late in the afternoon I drove over there to donate. The line stretched halfway across the site, and I waited 2 1/2 hours to donate, but the smoke was thick in the eastern sky, and in all that time I didn't see a single person drop out of the line. I finally saw my first TV images of the day around 6:30 pm, on a set inside the bloodmobile. I wasn't the first person that day to ask them if they could take two pints...

Very cool collection with a theme! Thanks for sharing, Bob. If anyone wants to get involved in Bullseye, the Riverdale club's winter bullseye league is open to non-members. Centerfire starts Tuesday Sept 22, .22 league Nov 24, and .45 league on Jan 26. Newbie's welcome, contact me for more detail.

They have lots of better things to do, but they don't want to do them. Going after criminals in our dangerous cities is, well, dangerous, and involves getting out of the chair and going outside. I can't recall anything done under AG Grewal that required more than sitting at a desk mailing out threatening letters to law-abiding businesses. That's as easy as it gets. You don't have to get out of your chair, leave behind air-conditioned comfort, or even set down your coffee.

That would seem an unlikely business model for a retailer who sells firearms. I suspect you misheard.

That’ll work!

Sold Pending Funds So it is probably sold, but if the deal falls through it may come back on the market.

An hour on the Dillon and I’ve replenished 400 rounds. Repeat as needed. I’m in pretty good shape for components and what little factory ammo I shoot, especially since the plan is to move out west in three years, and moving companies won’t generally take ammo or components.

Did you add a column for number of years the city has been under democratic control? Because that would be interesting...

Sonofagun! I wasn't aware of the extension. That will help, the lines at Murphy's MVC stations should be slightly shorter by then. But not to let a good rant go to waste, I still think the basic NJ drivers license fully meets the definition of a fake ID.

Yes, NJ is continuing to issue non-RealID licenses as well; it’s necessary so that they can continue to register voters without ID. Takes about a minute to renew online, you can even enter a new address that doesn’t match what was on your old license and they’ll change it on your license. . No wonder the Feds refuse to recognize it; it’s of no more value as an ID than an expired Blockbuster video card.

I never had a fake ID as a kid...never had a need for one. Back in May, my NJ Driver's License expired, and thanks to Covid and some dumb decisions by the governor, getting in to renew it was impossible. It was extended twice, but the final extension expires this month. I needed to get a REAL ID for federal ID purposes, since the basic NJ drivers license is no longer useful as an ID, because the state has dumbed down the ID requirements to the point where they have no idea who is getting a license (and the attached voter registration card). Yes, I can fly with my passport, but I don't normally have it with me, and I figure it's just a matter of time before I forget to take it to the airport. The word from my local motor vehicle offices is that if you aren't in line by 4 or 5 am, you won't be processed by the time they close...and even though they are supposed to be issuing RealID licenses if your license expires this month, they are turning people away for RealID because it takes too long and they are focused on getting the quicker stuff out of the way. So with my license expiring in a few weeks and a multi-state road trip coming up, I had to resort to renewing my non-Federal ID license online. It was quick and easy; no verification of anything, they'll use my old file photo, and my expired license is instantly valid (at least in the database). They'll eventually send me a new plastic license with my old photo, and I'll remain legal to drive next month, even if it's not a federally-recognized ID. So to recap, today the State of New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission issued me a fake ID. Thanks, Governor Gopher!

I'm not so sure about the 'see no harm' thing. I doubt most of the antifa-types can throw a molotov cocktail very far, so you're going to be fairly close when (and if) you hit it. The bottle fragments will still have their forward momentum, the gas will slow down pretty quickly once out of the bottle and encountering air resistance. Will it help? No idea, though having the bottle break in the air instead of against the side of your house might be a good thing. The experiment @PK90 suggests would be an interesting place to start. You're right about the vapor being the combustible. Liquid fuels can't burn as a liquid, only when vaporized. Under the right circumstances you can put out a match by dropping it in gasoline (though it has to be pretty cold, ideally with a light breeze to make sure the lit match hits the liquid before it encounters any of the gas vapor that is usually present).

Something tells me the next Clinton WMA shotgun meetup is going to be epic. Probably will want to have the paramedics standing by and the hospital burn unit on alert, but epic just the same.

The turkey turned out great--I wouldn't have changed a thing, except maybe starting it a little later. It hit 165F internal by 3 pm, so I had to throttle back the WSM to hold temp for the next 90 minutes, before taking it out to rest for 20 minutes. It stayed moist without mop or basting, and it was perfectly done when I did serve. The brine did it's job; wasn't too salty, and the creole seasoning was subtle, which was the intent. I smoked this one in an aluminum pan, a first for me, but I think it was the right choice for a long smoke of poultry, which is prone to drying out. Lots of good eating to start the weekend--the photos posted above look tasty!

Boil yourself something nice. My turkey has been on smoke for 4 hours of a planned 8, though internal temp is up to 145 so it might be ready earlier. Used up the last of my pecan, so the finish will be all applewood. My wife is making a cornbread/pecan/smoked andouille stuffing that should pair nicely, and a Cajun potato salad to match the Cajun brine I used.

Those look good, and they're still raw. I've got a 15 lb turkey going into a cajun-seasoned brine in about an hour. I'll be up early to drain and dry it, apply a basic poultry rub to which I'm adding a bit of the same cajun seasoning, then have it on the smoker around 8:30 am. A phone tree seems to have built up around when I'm running the smoker. We'd planned on a socially-distant dinner for 4, leaving us lots of leftovers. Somehow the count has climbed to 9 as of an hour ago, and I'm not sure people are done inviting themselves yet. The last time, a relative of an acquaintance drove down unannounced from well into New York state to join us. How long are you planning for the brisket to smoke?
