Headstamp ID
If it had been the full logo, I'm confident I would have been able to determine what it was. When a logo is so small (and incomplete) it can double as a Rorschach test, some marketing people didn't do their jobs well. Even worse, the engineers didn't fight hard enough against the marketing people telling them it was a bad idea.

primer prices at the shows ???
Primers have been popping up on MidwayUSA yesterday and today. You need to do the "wishlist trick". Create an account, and add it to your wishlist, it will show in stock there, but not on the main page. Big downside is most places are restricting orders to 1k now, which greatly increases the cpr once you add shipping, hazmat & tax.

Headstamp ID
I'm trying to identify two 9mm headstamps. One is marked FC 20; I know FC is Federal, but I have not seen anything about the 20. The second, almost looks Arabic or something, image below.

Absurd ammo prices!
I saw the other drops. Then I got home and saw they dropped SPP less than 15min after I shutdown PC and left work. NOT HAPPY about that.

CJRPC wait time?
IMO R14 & CJR&PC are so completely different, it's not fair to compare them. R14 has a membership fee + hourly fees with limited hours of operation. Even as a member it was hit or miss if I was able to shoot that day. I'd be there two hours or more to get a spot, then be limited on how long I could stay. Some of the ROs were strict beyond necessary. They also have the set times for cease fire, etc... From what I understand things are even worse with the flu. CJR&PC, you pay nothing extra. Hours are better, no ROs, much larger facility, covered pistol & rifle ranges, indoor range, etc.... If you are in a pit there's nobody else to worry about. If you are on one of the ranges, each member is in a sense an RO. If you need to go downrange, you make an announcement and the range goes cold. I have NEVER had to wait to shoot. Sure, some days are more crowded than others, maybe I didn't get the pit I wanted, but others were available.

Yes, the $600 is the one time contribution aka buy-in fee. Then $300 a year, there are ways to get discounts on that. You can spread the $600 out through the course of a year. The $300 is pro-rated based on when you join. Everyone's dues are Jan-Dec, so if you joined in July you'd be paying half of the $300. We are a member-owned club, not a for-profit business. That is why the contribution fee.

Moving out of state...Not sure what to do
I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV. The way I understand it, your NJ FID will become invalid when you move. You can get a non-resident one. I'd suggest you do that if you want to continue to visit your handguns. I've only seen good things said about Gunsitters, but do not know details about them. Perhaps, they may have more information about your situation. Another option, if your NJ residing friends/family are close/good enough friends/family why not transfer the handguns to them? You would need to be with that person(s) when you go to the range, but I'm sure it would be a much cheaper option.

Anyone reload 22LR?
I'm not really looking into it, just curious. Seems to me you couldn't reuse the brass. https://sharpshooter-22lr-reloader.myshopify.com/products/22-reloader-kit https://fedarm.com/product/22lr-primed-new-casings-2000-ct-pack/ Cost is a bit high as well.

4/15/21 - Murphy's dropping more "Gun safety reforms"
We don't have to go far to see the stupidity of gun owners still supporting and voting for people wishing to eliminate us; we have a few of them right here.

shotgun shell reloading
I'd need to double check if it accepts 3" shells. I have been using 2-3/4".

shotgun shell reloading
@Parker I didn't buy it new, but as far as I know it's stock. I did clean out the holes using a drill bit & pipe cleaner. I also scrubbed the area clean (there was build-up) and put in a new O-Ring. Before I did that it would occasionally short cycle with some bigger name brands. After I did that it was much better, but still doesn't like the more economical Rio stuff. I've read these shotguns can be picky about what they run. Also, it's a 20ga. Maybe they are even more picky vs 12s? I'll go through the article you linked when I have more time. Thanks.

Cleaned it and installed a new O-Ring, got better, but still doesn't like some brands.

I meant for more consistent cycling in the shotgun, not accuracy.

What makes them specific for hunting, just being non-toxic or the shot size/weight also? I'm just shooting clays, not hunting.

Bringing this back to the top. Midway has Lee Load-All II back in stock for $73 with free shipping. Seems a decent price in today's market. Availability of components is still a bit scarce. I've got a question I did not see specifically addressed. My Remington 1100 Semi tends to be a little finicky with some shells. I assume I'd be able to dial in a custom load just like you can dial in custom rifle loads, yes?

Hi all!
Meaning you've moved to NJ from Kansas?

How to sell it
Welcome. For real, I'm not an expert. Hypothetically: Part one, I think it depended on the firearm in question. Part two, no. Procession of any STANDARD CAPACITY magazine makes you a felon, unless you're a LEO. Fun fact, when the brain trust in Trenton first drafted and passed that law, they forgot to exclude LEOs. They needed to revise it later. Chances are others will chime in at some point. Side note, please stop using the gun grabbers terms. They are not high capacity, they are standard capacity.

FID going digital
Thank you for chiming in on this Rosey; I was hoping you would. I've been trying to find an angle I was not seeing that made this the victory NJ2AS was portraying it as.

WTS: Bull Rack (Grill Racks)
"Bull Rack BR6 Ultimate Package" I purchased late 2017, used a couple of times. Too small for my needs. It's boxed up in original packaging, will unbox for pictures if needed. Sells for $205 on Amazon, I'll take $100. Willing to entertain trades: ammo, reloading stuff, firearms (I can kick in cash), or anything else that interests me.
