And in Seaside Park..... http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/17/us/nj-explosive-trash-can/index.html

I've posted this here and on other sites several times.....my thoughts on sheet metal cabinets versus gun safes can be summed up by thinking about threat levels, and, more importantly, what is your goal in protection. If your goal is to keep the kids (and the teenage "opportunistic" thieves) out of the guns, one of those sheet metal cabinets is more than sufficient - they aren't going to even try to open the door. If you are trying to protect from the typical 'smash and grab' thief, a cabinet is also more than sufficient - it will slow them down considerably, and they want to get "in and out" as fast as possible. If you are trying to protect against an organized bunch that is bent on getting into your stuff; well, it depends. Is the typical thief going to have enough time to cut thru the lock/door without interruption, or enough time, ability and cover to rip it off the wall and carry it to a waiting pickup truck? If so, then you need a bigger/heavier safe. Having said all that....My threat 'level' was the first...I needed to keep the (then young) kids out of the guns. I've used the Homak version 8-rifle cabinet ($99.95 blue light special) with the Pistol Cabinet ($40 or so) bolted on top for over 20 years....if you take the foam barrel rest out and replace it with a piece of felt or something else that's soft, and put some of your rifles/shotguns muzzle down, you can get a LOT more than 8 in there.

It's well-known that the commie Mosin surplus ammo bullets have steel cores....

Posted Today, 02:51 PM W2MC, on 12 Aug 2016 - 01:49 AM, said: I went to Dicks last night with that coupon. They said it was not valid on ammo but they would honor it just this one time. They need to learn to read. It says not valid on gift cards, and a few other items. Nowhere did it say 'not valid on ammo'. I just used the $10 off $50 certificate I earned with that purchase to buy a case of 12 gauge gun club #7.5's. They were on sale for $5.24 a box ($52.40 a case), and I was out the door, with tax, at $45.37. AND just scored ANOTHER $10 off $50 coupon for providing a review of that transaction! Next will probably be the .22's they have on sale..the guy at the gun counter said tuesdays is when the truck comes in.... Quote MultiQuote

got one in the mail a few weeks ago, and yes, it was valid on ammo that was already 'on sale'

AND I garnered another $10 off $50 coupon for answering their questions. I REALLY need to build a cabinet to hold all this stuff!

If cupholders are outlawed, only outlaws will have cupholders. Actually, this bill neatly comprises everything currently wrong with this State

In celebration of this comment, I went to Dick's yesterday and bought 2 cases of Rio 12 gauge 7 1/2s. They had a sale ($52.95 a case) and I had a $20 off $100 coupon.

I was a firefighter for about 30 years. I never worried much about loose ammo cooking-off. What I DID worry about was someone leaving a loaded/chambered firearm lying about...THAT cooking-off could be....um....not good. Generally speaking, if I found a firearm, I opened the action and passed it down or left it somewhere obvious for later collection by the PD or homeowner. As for the "simple physics" - its not the bullet that can go flying - its the cartridge case that usually flies, because the bullet is much heavier (remember conservation of momentum?), and since the round doesn't have anything constraining it (like a chamber and a barrel) it doesn't gain much speed or go far. I did read (in one of the firefighting publications) that a bunch of cartridges that were stored in a cloth bandolier and caught in a fire were able to get up a little speed when they cooked-off; it seems the the cloth loops formed a "chamber" and shot the bullets. No one was hurt in that fire; however.

I've had good success with finding stuff there that I wanted, and at a price I was willing to pay. If that's the measure of a good show......then its a good show.

I thought it might have been personal experience....

Um.....how do you know that????

I dunno....why are they giving away little plastic prizes for winning the crossfit contest? Why not something nice instead?

BOHICA

Excellent work!

I got stuck in the mess a couple of months ago when the scrap iron truck flipped-over, blocking the bridge. Turned a 4-hour ride back from the in-laws into an 8-9 hour mess trying to get over the GWB. I suspect this is going to be much messier.....

you're right....no modern guns. They do, however, have 17 pages of ammunition, 11 pages of reloading equipment & components, 4 pages of AR accessories, 7 pages of holsters, etc etc etc

Merely details.....its going to be BOHICA !
