Just because you can, don't mean ya should. It depends on whats wrong, how mechanically inclined one is, and how long you can wait for the parts you need to replace because you lost some.

This.... And especially this. It's good to know your firearm intimately. I know my ARs better than any other machine I own because I built them. But I ain't gonna take em completely apart to clean them up. If you really know your firearm, you would know it's unnecessary.

I learned something similar to that in military school. Take care of your gun, and your gun will take care of you. Also, a well oiled gun is a happy gun.

Relax, breathe, proper stance, proper hold, concentrate, take your time, but hurry up.

They all need love, even the ones past their prime. I know a guy that buys absolute junk at shows on purpose. He's a retired gunsmith and makes a restoration project out of them. Kinda like animal rescue, he saves them from the trash bin and rehabilitates them.

A&M Lakewood. I've only been there once, and that was years ago so I cant give you much info. Quick Google sez they are rated pretty good and have a 20yd indoor range. They are open until 3 today. git moving. http://www.amarcherynj.com/index.html

Double D, I highly recommend getting a forearm guard too. Raking your arm with the bowstring really sucks.

No, but if you get caught with one, life will have become very complicated and expensive. Let's face reality for a minute. Law abiding citizens will comply, even if they agree NJ laws are bullshit. Only criminals and stupid people who push the envelope will get caught with >10rd mags. In the latter case, a person with an otherwise clean record will have that charge hanging over them for the rest of their life. Bottom line, do whatever the fuck you want to do and take your chances.

It was probably a Model 60. The anti semi-auto political machine grinding law abiding citizens into dust. Tube fed is a whole other animal because you can put ammo with a very short OAL in the tube. I dunno how many 22 shorts or CBs I canfi t in my 39D, but I know for sure its way over 15. I think the laws have relaxed on tube fed, since they cannot be quickly reloaded.

Unless it's a white guy shooting up someplace with an AR-15, the use of +15 mags is never mentioned.

Nope, I sure dont. But the fact is there were a lot of posts warning on the pitfall of constructive intent. At any rate, I'm a remy 870 lover, but bought a shockwave just to avoid the exact scenario you mentioned.

This is just a guess, but based on my research for building an M4gery with a 14.5" bbl, possession of such a barrel, even with plans on installing a muzzle device to bring it up to the legal 16" length could still get you busted if you were in possession of a lower receiver. I believe, as long as you have a all the parts, in the eyes of New Germany, it's the same as having a fully assembled prohibited item. Something or other about "constructive intent".

YES!!!! YES!!!! YES!!!! --> Watch it FULL SCREEN <--

I think you would stop arrows but end up ruining some of them. I suspect you have been looking at DIY backstops via google. I dunno about horse stall mats, maybe if they were layered. If the mats are very dense, then they'd probably work as the first layer. Practice arrows are fiberglass and they tend to splinter when they hit a hard surface. Aluminum arrows bend instantly. I never had trouble with straw stopping arrows unless the arrow slipped between the bails. Maybe horse mats over straw would do it. See, the problem is, as a beginner, you will be shooting at a somewhat close distance, so the target and backstop will have to absorb a lot of energy. I shot at about 15 to 20 yards, that may not seem like a lot, but if you are new to archery, it's about right. At that distance, there's a shit ton of energy. Maybe look at the backstop netting/blankets. I dunno anything about them, but they may do the trick.

My town does not allow it. Where I grew up a few towns away, they used to allow it, but not anymore. Archery is no joke. If you can practice in your yard, you need a good backstop. I used bales of straw with plywood behind the stack, but you can find better manufactured backstops now. Every once in a while an arrow would go through the bales, hit the plywood and destroy the tips. It's easy to stop an arrow, but not so easy to do so without damaging the tips. I have a compound bow with a 60Lb draw. You are welcome to borrow it for a while. I haven't touched it in years, don't even know if I have arrows. You should be able to find cheap practice arrows for around $2 - $3 each.

A lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a sheriff. He thinks he's smarter being a big shot lawyer from New York and has a better education than a sheriff from West Virginia. The sheriff asks for license and registration. The lawyer asks, "What for?" The sheriff responds, "You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign." The lawyer says, "I slowed down and no one was coming." "You still didn't come to a complete stop. License and registration please," asks the sheriff impatiently. The lawyer says, "If you can show me the practical difference between slow down and stop, I'll give you my license and registration and you can give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me the ticket." The sheriff says, "That sounds fair enough, please exit your vehicle." The lawyer steps out and the sheriff takes out his nightstick and starts beating the lawyer with it. The sheriff says, "Do you want me to stop or just slow down?"

I've adopted Trump's way of dealing with stuff.

Well, if Ray Ray dosent pull the fire alarm next time, I have a shotty with a slightly bent barrel we can let the kid use.

There Tex, fixed that for ya. You had the syntax a li'l messed up.

Sure, why not. I get blamed for everything anyway. As a Republican white male, I'm used to it.

So, is it super crowded or plenty of room?

Eject, eject, eject!!!!........ POOF Bailed.
