Gun Broker, etc
Bought over 20 rifles, shotguns and a few pistols from sellers on Gun Broker and never had a problem. Also a decent amount of parts which I couldn't from gun parts corp. Auctions end time reset for 10 or 15 minutes after a bid is placed within the hour. Some sellers do charge CC fees, like the poster above I also use credit cards exclusively since it offers a bit of protection and while most sellers charge 3% you will find others charging 4%, 5% and the highest I've seen is 7%! be careful and ask before bidding if they do not mention fees in the auction. I avoid sellers who only take money orders/cashier checks and have low feedback, too easy for someone to list a non-existent gun and take M.O's or Cashier Checks and never send anything. I also sell on Gun Broker, mostly books and non-regulated parts but occasionally rifles/shotguns/pistols to fund something new. This is where things get iffy, I've had good buyers, not so good buyers...if you take CC's you have to deal with fraudulent charge backs...PayPal is a viable option but the buyer needs to know how to keep it discreet or you risk having the funds frozen. To sum it up, it's a great site but I also recommend this site: GunsInternational.com , it's not an auction website and is a classified site for firearms, I've gotten some killer deals off that site.

Yep, when 10 is open you can work the world. I've worked the Marshall Islands, South Korea, Germany, Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Czech, Norway and almost all of Central and South America on 10M before. It;s a fun band (conditions permitting)

Just worked a Korean station and yesterday I worked a German, Russian and a few Central/South American stations. Left the rig on 28.400 for 48 hrs and not a sole heard...poor conditions on 10 but 20/40/80 have been good to me for the last couple days.

I do a bit of both, for example those Jamaican hot peppers I can never find around here and when specialty grocers have them they are expensive and of poor quality.

What happens if currently owned black rifles are reclassified as NJ assault weapons
Wait, even after bringing up politics this thread still hasn't made it to the sandbox? Sorry, continue on...

M-80 Salutes, Silver Salutes, Cherry Bombs ...they actually marketed them for pest control/agricultural use at one point, you would use a slow burning nitrate soaked rope and it would keep just about any 2 or 4 legged animal away ....Anyway, I just got more peppers plants in today...have them in 3" pots and they held up nice in shipping. Would have started these from seed but way too late

Again, the man has his own reasons that may extend beyond inheriting the house.

What happens if currently owned black rifles are reclassified as NJ assault weapons
I posted that IANAL (I am not a lawyer) and that you were right and I was wrong to suggest it. I also posted that I do not condone this (breaking the law) look at page(s) 6 and 5. I pointed out the fact that if guns are not registered LE wouldn't know who the owner is. Yes, you are right LE could do a trace and find out where the manufacturer sent it and where the distributor sent it and so on until they find the FFL that logged it out and pull out the 4473 identifying the buyer. Is this likely? NO! unless the firearm turns up in a crime I doubt it will ever see a trace. No, I don't want you to "teach me" how to transfer firearms illegally with "the least chance of getting caught". Again, I posted that I do not recommend/condone this and this was all hypothetical.

I'm taking my chances and planted early like you did and my plants have also been doing fine, temp hasn't fallen below 50F in SJ and I hope it stays that way.

You are right, here is a link to NOAA: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/climatenormals/clim20supp1/states/NJ.pdf

What happens if currently owned black rifles are reclassified as NJ assault weapons
No, it's not illegal if the friend is also a resident of NJ. Let's assume the friend has a home in both NJ and PA and also has an FPID and NJ DL, the friend could fill out the NJ COE and take possession of it. But YOU still haven't answered the question, Mipa, how would NJSP or ATF KNOW the long gun was no longer in his possession and in PA? if the long guns are not registered how would NJSP/ATF know?

Mipa, maybe he wants to keep the house have you ever thought about that? It's not an irrational decision, it's his choice and his money let the man do what he wants with it. Edit: and Jersey will "kill your soul" and "you will die with a black heart"? that can be said about other states, too.

Thanks for the tip I might build one to experiment with.

At least it isn't as bad as Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas where buying two or more AR's requires the FFL to report the sale to ATF...

While I like the idea of raised beds we have always done without them, good soil with organic fertilizer and I've always had nice yields from my plants. I have heard you also get better drainage with raised beds.
