Need some help with a decision...
Dude if your going to go through all of that on an M&P just buy a complete upper with exactly what you want already done. Take your current upper off, go get one of those big plastic totes from your local big box store. Put your old upper in it. Owning and building AR's you will quickly fill that bin up, with all kinds of stuff you think "looks cool" or you "have to have". I'm not trying to be a jerk here, just realistic. Having been through the same thing myself before. And having a big tote full of all the stuff your talking about getting myself, I fully understand how your thinking right now. Again I'm not trying to discourage you in any way or be a "know it all jerk-off". If you're intending to build a long range rifle with optics and a bi-pod, what's the reason for close quarters home defense accessories like a light or lazer? It's kinda like you can't build a NHRA Top Fuel dragster, that can also run 500 laps at a NASCAR track. Gotta pick one or the other. Or build a second rifle like we all find out we "need" to do. Unfortunately that's sometimes a more expensive lesson for some of us. I'm a plumber, I have no kids, and I can afford to build a complete rifle every week and still pay all my bills. Not everyone has that luxury, please don't punish your wallet more than you have to bro.

Talk me out of/into a motorcycle
Believe me the deer are everywhere here! I've shot them with the bow in the retention pond across the parking lot from your store (probably just incriminated myself). And all up and down both sides of 206 all the way to the end of Chester. Lots and lots of deer! The property next to and behind Walmart is a gun club, they drive the crap out of that place. I've seen literally hundreds of deer throughout that entire 206 coradoar.

Talk me out of/into a motorcycle
That's my local Lowe's store. I'm in there on occasion when all the supply houses are closed. I'll have to stop in and say hi one day. I've lived in this area most of my life been riding dirt bikes since I was about 6 when my dad got me a Honda 50 for my birthday. Got my first street bike at 17 and have always had a bike until recently. With that said I've been hit by car's riding around Morris county 3 times since 1994 when I got my license. Somehow I'm still alive, (some nerve damage in my leg and shoulder) but alive. 206 and 46 are pretty busy roads. People don't pay attention during commuter hours. If your looking to live a long life I recommend getting a Honda Civic instead, for a commuter vehicle. Or just move up here closer to work. It's a Republican area and some really nice places to live surrounding Mt. Olive. Long Valley, Flanders, Chester, Roxbury Twp. All great towns. Taxes are a little on the high side but good schools, low crime, and close to everything.

NJ2AS Initiates Sweeney Recall?
Agreed sir, I believe at this point what do we have to loose? We all as gun owners need to back this plan. It's already been put into play. We all need to jump on board at this time to see this through, success or failure is on all of us together. People in the 2A community have been calling for action for a long time. Well, here it is! Team up together or stay out of the way, because this is happening like it or not.

NJ2AS Initiates Sweeney Recall?
Your talking about turning NJ from Blue to Red. An almost impossible task, especially in districts that vote 80% democrat. NJ2AS knows this, along with everyone else. The plan here is to show the Largely blue legislature that gun owners can and will hold them accountable, if the put anti gun bills forward. We do this by execution of a successful recall. Why Sweeney? Because he is among those most vulnerable in the legislature. He only won in his district by a very small margin. That was before he stabbed gun owners, (that voted for him) in the back after he was re elected. This recall has to work or were totally screwed at this point. Loretta Wineberg already promised once the next democrat takes the office of Governor, she plans on bringing back all 70 some odd anti gun bills to the Senate. When the anti gunners realize were not going to sit by and allow this to happen without consequences, they may think twice before voting Yay on these types of bills. Especially the ones in districts that were won by a few hundred votes. You really need to listen to last week's episode of GFH radio for the full plan outlined by Alexander Rubian.

Is it legal? Survival AR-7
Short answer No. you can't go hiking in NJ with your rifle unless your a licensed hunter during the prescribed season for that caliber rifle. As well as following all other game code rules for firearms hunting. Like: no more than 3 round in your magazine, 200 square inches of hunter orange, predator call in your posession, ect. Walk into NJ public game land with a gun outside of hunting seasons, and your caught, they defacto assume your poaching. It's written in the game code. The conservation officer can confiscate your gun, and write you multiple summons.

How many times have you outgrown your safe....
I outgrew my 48, so I got a 64 now both of those are full. I need another 64. at this point I won't buy anything smaller. I'm probably going to have to build a room with a Vault door some day.

TIME FOR NEW CELL PHONE & GOOGLE PROJECT FI
Come visit me out here in Sussex County, with anything other than a Verizon phone and we'll see who can make a call. For now I'll stick to a carrier that has service everywhere. My business depends on it.

Very nice, I like the improvements. Looks very functional for having a small area to work with.

Stand Hunters: What Do You Bring And How Do You Bring It?
Gotcha, I didn't answer you over there, too many ball busters in your thread already lol.

Stand Hunters: What Do You Bring And How Do You Bring It?
Backpack with: my harness, sent spray, knife, bag of peanut M&Ms, latex gloves for gutting, bottle of water, crossbow crank cocker, bio discharge bolt, flashlight, deer drag, cough silencer, binoculars, plastic zip lock bag for the heart, my phone (I steal WiFi from the neighborhood of McMansions I hunt in the middle of, to watch the Giants games on Sundays), scent wafers, my written permission to be on private property, that's about it. My truck is only about 50 yards from my stand on the street. Didn't I see this post over on the hunting forum?

2A Eat and Meet Events. (Formally 2A Dinner meet ups)
Yep sounds like the place! My neighbor (a Sussex county local precision machine shop owner) is in the cable commercial for the place. Every time I see him now I'm hungry for a steak!

You should try the Arthur's on Speedwell ave in Morris Plains, by the train station. Holy crap their steaks are good! Worth the drive always. http://www.arthurstavern.com/index.html

Thanks, I never really thought about this possibility before. Good to know it can happen if compliancy sets in.

Home defense shotgun
Ok so now I'm afraid to shoot it! No way I'm going through the rest of my life with the knick name "Tripod" because my left hand only has 3 fingers on it. I just ordered a hand stop. Think I'm going to stipple the forearm as well.

Home defense shotgun
I haven't shot it yet since I installed it. I may hate it too. I have a vertical in my tote full of AR/AK spare parts. Maybe I'll bring that and a screwdriver with me next time I go shoot it, now that you mentioned it sucks on the hand. Thanks for the imput. Definitely a recoil difference from a 5.56 cartridge to a 12g shell. I can totally see that thing smacking the side of my hand, and being painful on the KSG.

Home defense shotgun
Went with the Magpul angled like i have on a few of my AR's. They feel comfortable to me.

Home defense shotgun
Once they break in their fine. I've seen a few videos where guys are having problems with cheap low brass birdshot, in brand new guns. A lot of the problems I see come from short stroking the forearm.

15/30 AK Magazines
One did, he was convinced after loading two mags for me lol:D. I said "your not going to check them all?" He replied "nice try lol". Pretty sure Midwest sells cut down true 15 round mags as well

Wheel Weights
What calibers can you cast? Maybe we can make a deal. I have a little bit of lead to say the least. I'm a plumber I come a cross lead all the time.
