Den of Thieves
And now the Russians have all of your personal data and full control of this board. :-) I hope I’m kidding.

How critical is it for you to have your little finger on the grip?
The separation is in how well the supported-pinkie-crowd shoots compared to the dangling-pinkie crowd. :-)

Legality of homemade 1911 from 80% blank
If you’ve got documentation for purchase of the blank while a resident of PA, I’d hold on to it.

Car Guru's - 2019 Chevy Traverse - Auto Stop/Start
Don't get me started on those abominations. They're probably responsible for more spilled gas in a year than conventional cans have been since the first jerry can was welded up from scrap sheet metal. At least you can find YouTube videos on how to convert most brands back to something approximating a working gas can, and a thriving cottage industry has sprung up offering conversion parts.

That, or secret service agents.

4/27/19 Central/South Jersey clays and bbq meetup.
Be careful what you wish for. That's near where an F-16 accidentally strafed an intermediate school a few years back. F16 strafes Little Egg Harbor intermediate school

Wills - special considerations for firearms?
I recommend putting together a spreadsheet, with make, model, caliber, year made, attachments (optics, etc), other distinguishing characteristics, who you want to inherit the gun, ||| serial number, approximate value, family history (war bringback? Great Grandpa's shotgun? etc). Attach the spreadsheet with only the columns before the ||| separator to the will (it doesn't need to list serial numbers and values). Put the full spreadsheet somewhere where your heirs can get at it. I don't have a recommendation for an attorney, but if you list your approximate location, someone else might.

Students Support Socialism... But Not With Their GPA
Hey, there is talk of trying to bring them back. Two species have been sequenced from frozen tissue dug out of the permafrost, and putting the reconstructed genome into an elephant ova, and implanting that into an elephant’s uterus, might just yield something much like a genuine live mammoth, according to some scientists. Hollywood has shown us how a similar process yielded something much like a genuine live velociraptor, and that has worked out great through 5 movies.

CA 10-Round mag limit struck down
Much as I like PSA's quick willingness to help through mail order sales (go, capitalism!), if I were in CA, I'd be looking to buy standard cap magazines for cash locally once they become available. Wait for the judicial dust to settle before making a record of any new purchases.

I’m suddenly a huge fan of Judge Benitez!

SCOTUS agrees to hear 2A case from NYC
Newfound constitutional protections? Meaning those passed in 1791?

LED Head Lamp
If your light is 12 years old and still using an incandescent bulb, I'd upgrade just to get an LED and the great battery life they offer. I've been using cheap Walmart headlamps for years, generally with good success, though I had a Coleman model a couple of years ago that was junk. I've got one of their store-brand camping equipment models now, which is holding up ok; spot, flood, and combo modes, with two buttons. I do sometimes miss having a red light option. I don't doubt that I'd like a high-end headlight even more, but have never bothered to go looking for one.

How did you hear about NJGF?
I also found it through a search engine, back in the bad-old-days of 2013, when I was trying to find a source that still had .22 ammo.

The new rocket launcher...
For you, it's the 300 ROC.

The new rocket launcher...
The Leupold line tops out at 25x, I believe, though the scope in the photo looks a bit like their Mark 5 3.5-18x

March against Murphy - Trenton, Tue. Mar 26th
This would have been well worth using a vacation day, but I’m on jury duty i can dream of being seated for some bogus firearms-related case and having the opportunity to push for jury nullification, but there isn’t much chance of me ever being seated for anything firearms-related

73,000 frames per sec...
The bullet engages the lands, but doesn’t deform enough to seal the grooves, so you get some blow-by. And the lightweight gas accelerates much faster than the bullet, so some of it exits the muzzle first.

I'm curious iPhone or and android?
I think all of the string manufacturers moved offshore when the rest of the textile industry left

I'm curious iPhone or and android?
Where is the lie? Does ANYONE not know Apple’s phones, like most phones, are made in China? I’ve never seen Apple claim otherwise.

Dog names
I’ve not run across a dog named Feinwerkbau. Probably not many Hammerlis out there either. Too obscure?

New Zealand Mosque Shooting
Maybe something to do with frame rate. Digital cameras don't capture the full image at once, they scan, very quickly, filling in pixels line by line. It's why you may get distortion when filming a rapidly moving object (video of a turning airplane prop, for example). The casings would be falling faster the closer they get to the floor...maybe at some point, they were simply falling too fast to get captured in the subsequent scan? There is probably someone here with a better knowledge of video who could comment.

March 25 - NJ finally up in smoke?
A CDL and a pilot certificate are but two I can think of. Federally issued, and under federal law, pot use is illegal.

Gathering Interest - Private range day on 1,200 yard private range in PA
Not if you are adding them, which I think is what is being described here.
