How Often Do You Shoot?
A bit more than once a week, say 5-6 times per month. Wife likes it too so she comes along about 4 times a month. It gets a little expensive but ...

Best places online to buy ammo...
Some places require a copy of your FID before they will send you ammo. If I remember correctly Midway is one of them. PSA is another

Do you always carry your FID card?
I had no problem with mine but $2 is less than the kit so that sounds good to me.

Sorry about the hijack. Regardless of where it is laminating is a good idea.

Your thoughts on Edward Snowden
Not sure about following his conscience just yet but that is a really good thoughtful post.

Do you always carry your FID card?
I like it in theory (we should not have to cart ID around in this country) but I would end up not having anything on me when needed in actual practice.

Anything the cops can do if you document this?

Do you always carry your FID card?
How about at the airport, using a check, etc.? I like the idea of no ID in theory, but with my memory, if I didn't carry the drivers' and the FID, I'd never have it when those pain in the rear occasions come up. If the dog tags would work, I'd prefer them

While driving?

.22 Target ammo
If the pistol is anything but a Browning Buckmark or Ruger Mark II or III, both of which eat anything, I'd go with CCI minimags. I don't think i've ever seen anyone have trouble with it. It shows up on Gunbot regularly enough but you have to be quick, and it's not too expensive for paper punching.

No drivers license? You truly are the man with no name. Also tempting fate with the LEOs!

Do you always carry your FID card?
While my FID was pending, the counter gal at Metzlers told me I could not touch the Desert Eagle I had driven across the state to see without one. After she had to turn it this way and that at my request, She said I could pick it up, put it on the counter pad, and turned around so she couldn't see me handle it.

Creepy Neighbor advice
I'm a dentist and can get you all the teeth you want for that $10,000. Is this guy originally from Florida? Regardless, I wouldn't be nasty hostile to him in case he's not a druggie but just crazy, but I would be hostile or cold enough to get the message across. And, I agree about getting in touch rather forcefully with the condo assn.

There are two pretty good ways to get around the laminating problem. One is to buy a self laminating set (at Staples) and instead of using the hard plate-like sheet, just use the adhesive sheet for both sides of the ID, and the other is to get some transparent double sided tape and put it on on side of the card first then lay the stiff laminate over it. The former is less protection but does a pretty good job of keeping it unfrayed and legible. The latter requires a steady hand if you want it to look relatively seamless. In either case, trim it down first, And as the advertisement says, 'Don't leave home without it'.

Konus T-80
The scope arrived yesterday and I, of course, set 'er up on the back deck. At 150 yards the neighbors siding texture is clear as a bell, and I can easily read the brand on another neighbor's satellite dish. Bullet holes at 100, its' primary use, should be a breeze. Thanks to those who gave recommendations and info, especially Jon.

I have the SP-01 and it eats everything without a hiccup. I've shot about 8 different brands including reloads through it, but have not tried anything in a longer bullet. That is one accurate gun though. The shooter not so much.

anyone an easton fish and game admin?
I'm going to join shortly too so I'll be following this issue closely. I was there with Glen yesterday and when he commented to the RO there about not having his card or his guest card yet, the guy just smiled.

Spotter scope?
I went with the Konus 7120. Thanks for the recommendations and info.

Spotter scope?
I was replying to Jon, but how wierd is it that that Barska was the other one except the stand got trashed in the reviews more than the Konus's.

Spotter scope?
Interesting because I've been looking around at the brands mentioned in the thread you pointed me towards in your first response and that specific one seemed like it might be the way to go. Again, thanks mucho.

Spotter scope?
Couple of hundred max although I wouldn't mind spending half that if it did the trick. This isn't a rifle scope after all, I just want to see where I hit clearly without waiting for everyone else to be ready for a break in the action and walking 100 yards,
