  1. On my modified Subarus ('02 WRX & '06 STI) which have played in lots of snow, I've used Blizzak LM-22s, Hankook Winter iPike W409s, and General Altimax Arctics. Loved the cheap Hakooks; even the Arctics handily beat the Blizzaks in the white stuff. While all season are lame in the snow, cheap studdables have worked great for me.
  2. .357 Sig & .40
  3. I've been told that in Minnesota some keep squatters out of ice fishing houses using well hidden Limburger cheese. I'm told it can be hidden in/on trucks too.
  4. Crap. That's my backup barrel & ammo for my .357 Sig. And I bet the video on the latter is even worse!
  5. My own future years in NJ boil down to a sentence I must serve because of retirement requirements. While it would be prudent to remain another 10 years, I'm not sure I can stand another 5.
  6. Here in NJ, to save a life in this case I think I'd use very strong strikes with anything resembling a sturdy stick to stop even a big dog.
  7. IMO a good school for Krav Maga will provide real-world training fairly quickly.
  8. P226 at home, P239 out (both in .40 & .357 Sig.).
  9. Sig P239
  10. Especially if it's with Scotch Bonnets and from Barbados, I like.
  11. If the knees can't handle a treadmill, an elliptical might not work either. If you go to a cheap gym (~$10 a month), you can try one out, perhaps along with a stationary bike, a rowing machine, or even circuit training with machines/weights (which are excellent for fitness even if you don't become a beast). If your knees are super bad, pool exercises or swimming might work. My 2 cents.
  12. Though in NJ now, I learned to drive in Minnesota. My modified Subaru STI with snow tires on an extra set of rims for the snow is great fun. IMO, in the white stuff, snow tires > good all seasons > bad all seasons/any high performance summer. Tires matter; the differences are significant. Addenda: 1) Others are a serious concern. As much as possible, it is nice to easily create distance away from threats. 2) RE: all seasons: One can make do with the ordinary, but that doesn't make it preferable.
  13. I'd pick the Santa Fe or a Pilot. The former I believe is quicker and has a higher towing rating. A used MDX might work too.
  14. A foot note, but related question: What is good for cleaning, for example, the grip of a handgun?
  15. Mars, Martis, m., Roman Ares. By metonymy, martial law is the law of war. Probably not the best solution in the states. Good education, jobs, and people with money will do wonders. So will the opposite, as is abundantly clear.
  16. I like having a one year supply, which I top off when it's half gone.
  17. A few good-sized stripers were caught on the Doris Mae IV today. (Not mine, I only bagged a few nice blues.) Because of the wind and currents, it was pretty hard to keep the jigs near bottom. Although I was a day late, yesterday's bite was great.
  18. All have the right to shoot at human targets even if they are impossible to see? Good luck with that. Problems: all and impossible.
  19. Light bite on the Doris Mae last weekend for a few tuna and mahi with a rough ride on the return.
  20. Why not also consider an autoloader, like a Mossberg 930?
