I remember doing some moving steel. I only did the knockdown once, but thought there was some moving stuff in one of those others. CRS disease ( can't remember sh%t anymore.

Oh, ok. I get confused between the two events. Sorry. Guess it's the "Old Bridge Steel" that has the other stuff.

Most of it is, but not all. They often have some knockdown steel and sometimes the Texas Star too.

Yes, this was very important for the Stand You Ground laws. Thank goodness!!!

Not exactly true. The iOS is "sandboxed" so the only way you could download something like that is if you jailbroke your device. Even if one app did sneak passed the Apple testers, it would not be able to do all those things without you giving it permission and is not able to access system or other app data.

Interesting article on how someone can potentially spy on you with your Android phone. http://www.itsj.com/launchpage.aspx?CID=353375

Yes, if your mag is full it is harder to push in. If you leave one round out, it goes in much easier. That is because the spring is completely compressed when full, thus making it harder. If the slide is open and you insert a new mag, it should not close by itself. You should need to either press the slide release or rack the slide. I do not believe that it should close automatically. At least that is how it is on my G21.

One cool thing I saw one guy do is get a sticker that was exactly a color copy of his plate and formed it to his bumper. Said he never had anyone complain about it. Probably around 6 or so years ago one of my friends was working with a commission to determine the validity of front plates. After surveying many officers, they all said that they never look for front plates. The study was done to see how much money would be saved if they didn't have to make two plates per car. It showed that they should get rid of the front plates in NJ. I guess we see how we'll that work out as nothing happen, as usual.

That is great news! Thanks. The front plate covers my oil cooler and I have to take it off every time I'm at the track. Got QQ plates a couple years back, but thought I needed the front plate. I'm printing out the reg 39 and putting in the glove box.

That actually is Dave's email.

I've been to Dick's Sporting goods with a friend that has an FID from the 60's or 70's and so far no problems other than the occasional comment of it being a really old card. Only used it to buy 22lr ammo.

Yes, the current barcode on the back of a Driver License is a "PDF417" code. I just scanned mine in with a free barcode reading app on my iPhone. It contains a LOT of "human readable" information and a very small amount of "encrypted" text at the very bottom (which may just be a "MD5 Checksum" for verification). I can see my full address and even that I have the "Boat" license, then a bunch of misc codes, DOB, etc. So the question is would they really encrypt that you have an FID or would they just have a line that says "DAFID"??? Perhaps anyone with a barcode reader could tell that you have an FID by scanning it...

Ok, a QR code is a barcode. You can scan those with an app on your Smart Phone. The data *could* be encrypted, but that doesn't mean that it cannot be decoded at some point. Whether they will "share" that with companies such as Midway, etc. will be another story. As far as the cops in their patrol cars, from what I understand, that is a moot point. If they call in your DL number, it will already tell them that you have an FID.

Have they stated whether it's going to be a magnetic strip or a barcode? If it is magnetic, that would make it impossible for us to "photocopy" our DL and send to internet companies, as it would not be for them to read it. And as anyone who has a credit card knows, those magnetic strips don't hold up too well as the cashier usually needs to verify some of the numbers or it won't read at all after awhile. If it's a barcode, many internet companies may also say it's not worth the hassle of processing those too. Argh. Anyone want to start an Ammo Superstore in NJ???
