What a great two days. Yesterday I took my two nephews to the range. Third visit for the younger one, first for the older, he's home from college for winter break. Both had a great time, the younger is still a natural. Today I took my other nephew for his second trip and his younger sister agreed to come this time. She kept saying she didn't want to shoot, just watch. My awesome (pre-k teacher) wife first got her to "help" load the .22 magazine and .22 tube fed rifle. Then I suggested bench rest with the rifle. Still no from her. Next thing I know my wife said she agreed to shoot one round, bench rest, with my wife's assistance. That quickly turned into close to 100 rounds. She was barely aiming, but still managed to knock down some some steel plates. Even ended the day holding an firing all by herself. No interest in the handgun, but I still count the day as a huge win! It's possible I enjoyed the day more than they did.

I meant for this en banc petition. From the link you posted: "Judges Jordan, Hardiman, Bibas, Porter, Matey and Phipps would have granted the petition." I read that as the six Judges that would have granted the petition were not enough.

Does that say six Judges voted to grant the petition but we still didn't have the numbers needed? How many Judges in total voted?

https://www.mpshieldezrecall.com/ M&P SHIELD® EZ® PISTOL IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FOR PISTOLS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN MARCH 1ST, 2020 AND OCTOBER 31ST, 2020 Smith & Wesson has identified two M&P Shield EZ Pistols on which the hammers manufactured by our supplier were cracked. In those firearms, the hammer failed to fully engage the sear, causing the round to fire, cycling the slide, and potentially resulting in multiple discharges without depressing the trigger. Stop using your M&P® Shield™ EZ pistol until you determine whether it is included in this safety recall, and if so, until it has been inspected and repaired by Smith & Wesson, if necessary. PRODUCT AFFECTED: This notice applies ONLY to M&P® Shield™ EZ pistols (including Performance Center® models) manufactured between March 1, 2020 and October 31, 2020, and only to a small percentage of that population. It does NOT apply to all SHIELD™ pistols. To determine whether your M&P Shield EZ Pistol is affected, check the label on the box to determine date of manufacture (see image below), and if manufacture date is between March 1, 2020 and October 31, 2020 – your pistol may be affected. In this case (or if you are unsure of your date of manufacture), simply go to MPShieldEZrecall.com and input your serial number, or call 888-871-7114 .

Tragic. I assume there's cameras there to show what happened. Doesn't say if the gun was a rental. Will that be the new restriction at ranges, you can't rent unless you have your own also? Many already require a FID and prohibit rentals to people by themselves. Simple fact is if a person wants to commit suicide at a range there's really no way to stop them. https://www.rlsmedia.com/article/shooting-union-gun-range-under-investigation-injuries

That's rather frightening since I've used mine while away from home before. What brand? I've got an Anova.

I'm on my second Neato. We had the Roomba first, that tended to pick up the cat's hair only to clump it and deposit the clumps elsewhere in the house. That was several years ago, so they may have improved on that. The Neato does a much better job, no complaints as far as it picking up what it should. I found the Neato's App setup to be less frustrating as well. The first Neato ran well for 2+ years, then the sight system failed. Best Buy just happened to have a newer one on sale for a good price so I bought it. We've had this one for close to two years now. It typically runs daily M-F, but it had an extended break during the full lock-down since we were both home and it was distracting. Now that we're both back to work and it runs M-F again, it seems to get stuck more often. I need to give it a good cleaning of all of the sensors and see if that helps. When it was new it could do the entire house in one run, now it has to dock to recharge and then continue. The cheaper units will not recharge mid-clean, so be aware of that. They also vary as far as how you can tell it not to go into areas you don't want it to. Originally they used magnetic tape, now you can do it in the App. I was amazed at the amount of dirt it picks up. Early on the dust bin would be jam packed just about each day, then it got less. That indicated to me just how much embedded debris it was pulling out if the carpets. Early on it was a bit of a hassle making sure stuff was picked up off of the floor that it would suck up and get jammed or destroy. The upside is it does force us to keep the house a little tidier. It did set off the house alarm once... My wife left a TV tray precariously leaning against the wall. The Neato managed to knock it over, which was enough of a bang to trip the glass break sensor for our alarm.

I don't know about anyone else, but I can't see the attachment. Context?

That's good and IMO more reasonable. Good luck with your wait.

I'd look into getting it sent to a different FFL. $5 per day and then selling out from under you after 90 days is a bit harsh.

Pointing a handgun at someone and "messing with it" as shown in the video is not an accident. That is negligence at best. Had the muzzle been pointed down range the event would have been an "o fudge" moment, not the literal and figurative ending of two lives; not counting the families involved and whatever feces-storm comes down on the range.

That's no accident, that's negligent homicide.

PM sent, paying it fwd based on some very good experiences I've had from other members here.

I saw this elsewhere on Sunday after I got home from a USPSA match. During that match two people were DQ'd, one sent a round over the berm (thankfully into a wooded area) during a reload, I don't know what the second person did. I had not seen the how/why of what happened, nor is it in the link posted. How do we know it was from a dropped gun?

@dajonga is a solid guy. I picked up a Marlin .22 from him (private sale, not via Shooters), it now makes it on nearly every Range trip. Was only inside Shooters once, on a Saturday, yes it was a madhouse; just like every other shop nowadays.

Start here: https://www.njsp.org/firearms/fars.shtml You do not need to know what you want to buy before you start the process of obtaining your FID or Pistol Purchase Permit. I have a friend from work that has had his FID for well over a decade and never purchased a firearm yet. A FFL is not going to sell you something you cannot legally own.

Last night they had 2700 and change in the queue and were working on Wednesday. Friend of mine filled out paperwork this morning and was told to expect 3-4 days.

If I can get the cases & pockets clean enough overall without the pins, it will save me the aggravation of dealing with the pins. I don't need the brass super shiny, I just want them fairly clean and residue removed from the pockets.

So you used, the pins then? I thought maybe you didn't.

What do the primer pockets look like?

I had a few pins escape from the "latch" where the top and bottom of the bucket join. Edit, I watched the video, the gap is the same. Looking from a higher angle you can see the gap.

Short answer: not impressed. Would not recommend unless you plan to do small batches. Longer review: It is not rigid. It does not hold much before it starts to flex. One handle wants to dislodge from the basket. The efficiency seems to decrease as the quantity increases. Some pins escaped the bucket. The latch to keep the basket closed is a PIA. The basket kept hitting the bucket (due to the flexing). I plan to contact Midway regarding a return. The policy stated on the website states product must be unused to be returned unless defective. I could argue that the handle not staying locked in place makes it defective, but it is also due to the design. If I have to pay return shipping it's probably not worth it. Dealing with the pins is still a PIA and has me rethinking my desire to want a clean primer pocket. I think for next batch I'll run it without the pins again but with the citric acid powder and longer.
