Without a doubt, there are a few sociopaths in government, but the sad truth is they are mostly just selfish power mongers.

He is a sociopath. When one has no conscience, they have nothing to fret over. They are the most dangerous and unpredictable people because there are often no signs of a mental defect.

Yesterday, I was reading that there were four people involved. I thought it strange that today they are only talking about one person. BTW, .... They want to ban the semi auto, but not the other guns. Bad logic.

From a discussion in another firearms forum that is more internationally oriented. Gun laws in AU and NZ are not identical. A person in NZ may buy, and keep in their home a semi-auto rifle but, by NZ standards, have to go through an extensive background check that involves interviewing family and associates. Storage requirements are more strict as well. If one owns a semi-auto rifle they must have a safe and keep them locked up at all times. NZ firearms law is very similar to NJ concerning long guns but is extremely restrictive with handguns. NZ has no NFA equivalent for suppressors. In fact, they encourage the use of them.

Okay. Look, either he's legit or he's not. If he is, then now he knows that convicted felons do not easily get their 2A right restored, it's expensive and will involve a judge. If the OP is a MDA Everytown shill, then they will have learned that convicted felons do not easily get their 2A right restored, it's expensive and will involve a judge.

I've heard rumors, that a non-violent offender, convicted of a felony has a slight chance of getting a FPID, if they can prove to a court (if he can find one willing to hear his case) if he can prove that he was basically a boy scout, went to church on Sundays and holy days of obligation and stepped around insects on the sidewalk. ever since then. It is possible, after a period of time, to have a record expunged. How the OP ran his own report, probably a website that does background checks, is dubious at best. If he applies for a FPID his conviction will almost certainly show up in a NJSP report and disqualify him. On the very slim chance the OP can get his 2A right reinstated, it will be a long and expensive process.

As it stands now, no. You will be denied. Hire a lawyer. Expect that if you do apply, because of your previous conviction, you will be investigated thoroughly. They may even give you a DRE.

This morning on the news, I heard that the shooters wanted the attacks to be the catalyst for the Balkanization of the USA. I also heard (or maybe read) that they used "automatic weapons". To me, automatic means machine guns, but I think the media or whomever it was that made the statement, was trying to conflate semi-auto with fully-auto.

You may have to go to IRC (Undernet) for it.

The dog does have an asshole. You could name just that part, Barry (or Greenday...The band of course). Every time you need to take the dog out for a walk, don't forget the Barry bags.

Yanno, that's just going to get shortened to Maggie. Pet names always get shortened into shorter "pet" names.

Peel, have you been in the cooking sherry again?

This is really sad because, in the end, when the plaintiffs loose, they will have been victimized twice. The first time by the shooter, the second time by Bloomberg and all the other gun grabbers. I feel bad for the parents, this lawsuit has replaced their children as a reason to live, they are being coached by Bloomberg and other anti 2A groups to redirect their grieving towards anger at a company that literally had noting to do with Newtown. They are being used as pawns, emotionally manipulated by the anti 2A lobby into a dead end street. The parents have a huge hole in their lives and Bloomberg was happy to come along and exploit them, knowing they were vulnerable. When this is all over, the parents will be devastated because Bloomberg convinced them that banning guns will have given some modicum of meaning to their loss.

Political activism from the bench. The plaintiffs will lose.

Mathematically, it all works out, two negatives make a positive.

A good long range scope will cost at last as much as the rifle itself. With all the inexpensive precision rifles on the market, I would not be surprised to hear that some folks paid more for the optics than the rifle. Look at Howa, Tikka or something built off a Remington 700. If you like the M1A, then your only real good choice is a loaded model in 6.5CM. That may put some pressure on your budget a lil bit though.

That was not helpful, especially since you have never been there. Maybe you should have stopped at you have never been there. I had already checked the website and could not find the info I was looking for.

What's the setup at this place? Tables, shooting benches, etc.... do we need to bring everything, including tables, chairs and whatnot?

I don't think it's a private range as in, a buddies farm that has steel set up all over the place. I think it's a legit range that is privately owned. Two days 2x the price. I like the overnight idea though. Have dinner afterwords, sit around BSing for a few hours. Like, an after party.

How are the steel targets set up? I can't imagine they are all at 1200yds. Depending on the distances the targets are set up, I would really like o do this.
