TV Land Cop Shoot 3/12/22
Cindy said if you could talk your better half into going she will go. Maybe they could talk each other into shooting.

I met him there also. Convinced me to purchase my first revolver. Nice guy and has probably forgotten more about revolvers than I will ever know. Can't wat to see you again 10X.

TV Land Cop Shoot 3/12/22
As long as it doesn't snow and I have to plow I'll be there. 10X has been spotted a few times. Not sure of his plans this year.

Recognize this 7.62x54 cartridge ?
Most I ever put through mine in one range session was 40 rounds and I have an aftermarket rubber butt pad.

Optics, lasers, etc as well as iron sights. this being NJ , sorry no suppressors."

Corrosive steel core ammo. Don't shoot steel plates with it.

New gun day!
I'm so jealous. Have wanted one of those since I fired a full auto version at a machine gun shoot.
-
Laser aiming aids any good?
They are useful to get on paper at 25 yards. I have only used the cheaper ones but saves a few rounds of ammo at the range.

NIC Delays again?
NY goes straight to the FBI. No charge and takes minutes.

What pushed you to start prepping?
Agree 100%. Step down transformers the almost irreplaceable weak link in the grid. Never thought about them until I read the book. I advise everyone to read it.

Where Did You Go / Are You Thinking Of Moving TO When You Leave NJ
Cindy was out shopping upstate and needed gas. She pulled up to the pump and waited for the nice man in front of her to finish his tank and asked him to do it. Jersey Girls=Resourceful.

Where Did You Go / Are You Thinking Of Moving TO When You Leave NJ
Much like myself you picked the right Jersey Girl. Cindy has never pumped her own gas. You can take the girl out of Jersey but you can never get all the Jersey out of the girl.

Vacuum Sealers
There is another thread about vacuum sealers that I participated in and the Food Saver was highly recommended and I purchased it. I couldn't be happier. Get a model that will use the roll bags so you can cut them to a custom size. I purchased this one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DI342B4?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1

Streak ammo
Since their own packaging says they are not incendiary I would imagine they would be shipped here depending on what the shippers lawyers say.

Streak ammo
Just put them in another box.

Omicron explosion spurs nationwide breakdown of services
Very similar to Cindy's symptoms except instead of nausea she had body aches. She said it felt like her skin hurt. I just had sinus congestion and a mild sore throat.

Thanks appreciate the kind thoughts.

Omicron explosion spurs nationwide breakdown of services
Thanks for asking. I actually didn't get very ill at all. I thought I had a head cold but when Cin tested positive the Dr figured I had it too and put us both on quarantine. He gave us 10 days because we are not vaxed. Cin was sicker then myself and still has a cough but she feels much better than she did. My Dr said his office is calling it the Covid cold because symptoms are mild and resemble the common cold. He said his office has dozens of cases. It's obviously highly contagious.

I work for my local DPW. I've been out with the Rona for 10 days. Our staff is down 40% currently. I'm off quarantine tomorrow. Luckily no major storms or service breakdowns in the last 10 days. Lets hope our luck holds out but hope is not a strategy.

TV Land Cop Shoot 3/12/22
Each event is timed but there is a little leeway (OK sometimes a lot). One gentleman forgot to bring up his extra mag and was allowed to go back to the table to get it and finish the round. It's really laid back. You can shoot whatever gun you want in each round. You put down what event and gun you were shooting on your scorecard. For those that don't know what the FBI crouch is here is an old training video.

What is an "Attached Tubular Device"?
Picked one up at an auction little over a year ago Mohawk Brown from 1964. No serial number. Great shooter.

Defensive firearm use
I used to never lock my door either, the whole safe town no crime thing. I changed my habits after going to a seminar with a firearms attorney. His advice was to lock your doors so a potential intruder could not use the "I just walked into the wrong house and the crazy gun nut shot me" defense. That made a lot of sense to me. My layout is almost identical to Mr Stu's. Most who come down the road are lost or there to see me. I don't have a shepherd but a Redbone Coon Hound and a hyper vigilant Rat Terrier that barks at headlights that are 50 yards away. Nothing gets close to the house when she's downstairs without me knowing it.
