They're still busy trying to get their stories straight @ NYPD as of 2100 tonite. Naturally, if nypd and the politicians could have their way, they'd try to shut the story down just like the THR mods do every time a thread gets started about the incident. High road indeed! More like the 1984...

None of the victims have been arrested or had any charges filed against them.

not going by commissioner Kellys' statement it ain't. WABC tv in NYC has witness statements that the alleged ramming took place AFTER the shooting started. These kids were probably just trying to get the hell out of dodge, just like you or i would.

And this thread, like all the others before it, will no doubt be locked-up for alleged "cop bashing", but here's a hint for the resident thought-police: It ain't "COP BASHING" when everyone is being stonewalled BY the cops*, and all you want are some credible answers to hard questions so the...

Having some 'cool' looking polypro. gun isn't what does it for me. The classic walnut & blue steel look is what attracts my eye, but the brand reliability and reputation trumps everything else, then comes looks.

If anyone was in dire need of a new rifle for deer season he would usually be well advised not to wait till the day before the season opens to try to buy one. The item you really want may be out of stock. Store computers could be down or, just as plausible, that instacheck computers could be...

Getting a drivers' license used to be pretty easy in most states, but can be something of an ordeal anymore. Nowadays, thanks to all the post-9/11 security paranoia, they not only want proof of your address, they also want to see your birth certificate, another form of ID, or two, depending on...

I'm not sure of the wording of the federal law(s), or if they even address a situation like yours, but in practical day-to-day terms, when it comes to actually purchasing the guns, state laws effectively end up trumping federal laws anyway. In some states, about all that's required to...

The pic. the OP posted reminds me of a little rhyme i once remember hearing: This is my rifle, this is my gun...:evil:

Most of the 'legalize' i've dealt with regarding handguns revolves around your state of residence. ( or lack thereof in your case ) IE: since it is illegal for me to buy a handgun in other than my state of residence, I would think that you would run into this problem right off the bat. As...

Ben, based on years of observations on reactions to past situations like this in this area, the local politicians and nypd would have been screaming their side of events from the rooftops, and putting it on billboards along the FDR and Long Island Expressway by now, if they had a good solid...

Among others stations, i get WABC from NYC on my local cable. They just did an "update" here with the local 1800 news broadcast, with nada to add to what we already knew. I've lived in this area for a couple of decades and the normal approach with this type of incident is for NYPD and the...

Number one or number one thousand, they're all pretty much the same for the most part, the basic recipe seems to be this: take one hall or room, overfill it with table after table of worn out over-priced crap, mix in a few surly dealers who would rather take all of theirs back home with them...

Best ammo deal i ever got? Just about anything & everything purchased prior to the 2005/06 round of bi-monthly price increases! :mad: :fire:

I'm really confused here. Since guns are illegal in NYC, then why on earth would the po-lice need to shoot anyone :rolleyes: and not simply be out there directing traffic? In fact, since they're illegal, why should the police need the evil, awful things in the first place? :evil:

10-Ring... +1, i just had the same idea come to mind! Situation update: at least the situation got resolved without anyone getting hurt. Good ending for the cops, the bystanders and even the BG. I love that CNN has now upgraded to "machine gun"..LOL! Armed cartoonist in custody...

If memory serves, the maverick 88 and the mossy 500 are near identical guns. If that's the case, remove the magazine tube cap, & barrel, set this aside, and lightly shake the gun back and forth while pointing toward the floor. The "plug" is nothing more than a ultra-thin 'dowel' type wood rod...

Possible hostage situation/ man with gun, etc. "stormed" the Miami Herald offices...Being reported right now on all the cable news outlets. The reporters and their verbal descriptions of weapons they haven't even seen just kill me. I've heard all sorts of speculation. I guess you can tell...

It depends on the type of gun to some degree, and the length of the range trip in terms of # of rounds fired, but i would guess my 'average' time is in the .75-1.00 hr. range. Revolvers can be a real PITA, but i don't use them that often. Semi-auto handguns break down so easily and make...

Beware the bait & switch and other games @ DSG... Deleted double post.
