Mountain Cav? Is that like the Armored Airborne?

You guys are either much more forgiving that I am, or have short memories. Petzal was the original Zumbo, back before the Internet caught on. Here's what he said as the original Clinton "Assault Weapon" Ban was enacted" I wouldn't urinate on Petzal's quiz if it was on fire, personally.

And both are lower than Japan's suicide rate, where guns are verboten. "The most common method: hanging." 24 per 100,000 is the number according to this article: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/02/01/MN9EU84TP.DTL

Funny thing about beer theft...any LEOs notice the crooks tend to steal the cheap stuff? In my previous life I noticed the trend, they always go for the Pabst or Bud or Busch. Why not steal the tasty imported labels? Same charge if you're caught, same sentence if you're convicted. I wish...

It's been my experience that "proof of good citizenship" is either a valid CCW permit (indicative of clean criminal record) or a written statement of such from the local PD. SIG Academy comes to mind as requiring either of these two documents before admittance into their courses.

Roll out the welcome mat for all those Katrina evacuees, they seem to be enjoying themselves in Houston. (it's a modest assumption that the Katrina crowd has some bearing on this sad statistic, admittedly)

I salute V35's stunningly accurate description of New Jersey culture. Having moved to the state a few years ago on temporary assignment, I continue to be taken aback by how completely subservient most Jerseyans are to their government...while being belligerent to their fellow citizens...

I've worked with guys who asserted that when serving "Knock and Announce" warrants the "Knock" is the door-thumper breeching the door, and the "Announce" is them shouting "police search warrant" as they enter. Not entirely safer than a no-knock procedure when done this way. You still get a...

They must be chambered in .88 Magnum. "It shoots through schools."

Joeg- if Somerset is within driving range for you, let me know and we'll let you take my .45 Commander for a test drive at the range.

Here's data through 2004 showing the true effect of disarming the law-abiding...like the VPC says, "Proof that strong gun laws work is found in Great Britain and Australia." http://www.aic.gov.au/publications/cfi/cfi115.html

I heard USA Today referred to as "McPaper" a few years back, and the title seems increasingly appropriate.

Cowards will always find enough courage to attack the brave.

The opportunity for counterintelligence is worth considering. Set your profile to read "I like bunnies, candy canes, feeding the poor, housing the homeless, and wishing for world peace." Nobody that you want to see it will see it, only those you don't want.

You're fairly close to GT Targets, and they make nice stuff. I shot their static steel targets over the summer, and even my .45 shooting full-power hardball couldn't put a dent in the plates. Karl is a good guy, and buying locally means you won't get creamed on shipping. Steel is heavy...

Obeying NJ law means "bend over." You'll need to complete a Firearm Purchaser ID Card application and check the Pistol Purchase Permit box. You'll then bring a money order or cashier's check for the exact amount to the police station. They'll fingerprint you if it suits their schedule, and...

What if they came back and determined that all who worked against the Constitution and Bill of Rights were traitors, and summarily sentenced you all to death. Would you respect their stance and step into the noose?

NJ law (in my non-attorney understanding) is that carriage of a firearm, even unloaded and locked in the trunk, is only legal without NJ permit/FID/whatever if you are on your way to/from a range for purposes of target practice. That's with no bullets in the magazine, by the way. Worst case...

Most relevant quote on this subject, from a USMC officer: "My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals."
