Got a favorite? I've got an empty space on the rack that needs a 22 bolt gun. After browsing around, it seems there are plenty of rifles to choose from that are affordable, well made, and very accurate. I almost went for a Browning T Bolt, but folks complain about the trigger...and no good...
Ah, the drama!
Corporate welfare, incentives, whatever you call it, has been demonstrated to be a losing proposition. BUT, on the other hand it's hard to argue with the math...return on investment over a of a few years. The best part thought FUAC got shafted by his own.
NYC elected these...
I do not want a glossy magazine or reports about junior shooting events or editorial comment about things I know. If and when Tom King is gone I will reconsider my support of NYSRPA. But if altar boy FUAC can make infanticide legal, what are the odds that the NYSRPA will prevail in overturning...
For a long time I was on the wall about King, and the state association. Now I am not. I will not vote for him nor give him my money. And as for Cox...thanks for nothing.
And, let's see if the church excommunicates the satan of Eagle Street.
Welcome to the forum. Yup, the list of elected comrades is getting longer. We know who the goons are...it's the sheep who vote for them that's really disconcerting....
I have a Tucker pancake and two layer gun belt for my commander 45. I'm happy, but both are very stiff and break-in takes time...still a bit stiff, but I figure that's and indication of longevity.
I really can't stand what has become of this state. My ancestors go back to the Speedwell, sister ship of the Mayflower, and FUAC says I don't belong here?
Asshole, Pelosi, that fucking loon Ocasio, and now that fuck that called Trump a MF; where do these creeps find the garbage that fills...
We looked over and bought a set of Italian made steak knives. They are forged and have olive wood handles. Very nice, elegant, and affordable...beats the German stuff.
I just read the article this morning. It hurts to see the truth. FUAC and all the progressive/regressivism. My wife and I will enjoy our home and retirement for a couple of years more, then we too are gone.
As a poster above has suggested, considered sending the firearms ahead. And (hate to say this too) after your move notify the city and send them whatever documentation you may have that you are legal.
I only say this because years ago I moved north from Suffolk County, did all the permit stuff...
Always ensure vehicle does not give any reason to be pulled over. Corollary; ensure vehicle operator does not give any reason to be pulled over. Cops do not pull you over to make friends.
I seem to remember Native Americans, or Indians as preferred ( I simply do not know) have gone toe to toe with the troopers...didn't they close a piece of the Thruway once?
I learned a long time ago that "compromise" really means "lose lose". The anti 2A crowd does not even understand what they are giving up...impossible for them to comprehend, they are true believers and a danger.
Here is when it gets worse, when YOU CAN NO LONGER EVEN VOICE YOUR OPPOSITION. We'll be whispering while looking back over our shoulder
People are NOW losing their jobs over the bullshit pc lunacy by calling a man a man when they want to be called women...and you want to talk about gun...
For the vision impaired....
Question for the group; do yellow lens work with red dot sights? I'm off for an eye exam and probably a pair of prescription shooting glasses. I know yellow has benefits on the range, but I can't find any info specific to use with red dot sights. Any experience...
Again, many thanks. One problem with DEC grant programs, whatever they are, is funding. That agency is full of ...ideas...but money, if ever available, falls short. Nor is NYSDEC the old conservation department; eyes wide open here.
It's sad. I used to work in Binghamton and once in awhile venture over to Dick's on...Court St? I understand this was the original store, so there was some nostalgia to wallow in.
No more now. Screw Dick's.
Wow, nice.
Appreciate the feedback very much. Yeah, sometimes I scratch my head about things...but, the club is damn near and they support youth activities. Hey, I 've some free time to do something.
I believe that any construction could be covered by willing members in the trades, and the...
Thanks. At the far end there is no bullet stop, just low wooded hillocks which are probably insufficient. Along the left side is uphill and looks good. Along the right side, not good. It fronts along a town road, and although the range does sit at a higher elevation there is a clear view...
Safety...agreed!
I think there may some culture issues in the background. The membership has factions that appear at odds. I just can't believe, given the age of this club, that nothing was ever done with this range. I don't even see postings on the perimeter.
No, assistance does not seem to come free. I personally don't mind paying, but I'm afraid the club will be put off by development costs. I'm not even sure that the club is actually NRA affiliated.
A club I belong to has a parcel which is optimistically referred to as a rifle range. I've checked it out and will not use it. Plenty of space, nice and level, but little else. So, basically starting with a blank slate, I emailed NRA Range Services and asked for any "where to begin"...
Ordered an Alchin mount and a Vortex red dot. I saw the mount over on RFC, it's got a small footprint and keeps thing low without fooling with dovetails. Like Kev74's set up, the sights will be a bit forward.
Some folks in here have brought up the subject of virtual private networks. We don't participate in any social media stuff exactly for privacy reasons...but we've now subscribed and use a VPN. It ain't perfect, but it is another level of protection against intrusion.
Pro tips are always appreciated! I tried competitive pistol (45s) years ago when I wore green, but I sucked. Went to rifle and did way better. I've always wanted to get back into shooting, and now that I'm retired I've got the time. And I love tweaking firearms. Red dot and grips....come on...
Numerous choices, what a country! As Robin alluded, it's mindboggling.
After speaking with the league contact, and the guys in our local gun shop, Ruger is a heavy favorite...leaning towards a Mark IV Target in blue. I see Turnbull offers one that's case colored...see, I'm getting distracted...
Wow, thanks all for your input. I think half the fun is going to shopping! I've handled the 41, but for the money I'd rather go with something less expensive and modify/upgrade as needed. I hadn't considered the Buckmark....
I see S&W has the Victory? Any preferences for barrel length?
The local pistol league is looking for new shooters, and I'm mulling it over. The only 22 handgun I have is a Ruger Single Six, and I'm pretty sure it ain't gonna cut it. So, if anybody can offer some insight and suggestions I'd appreciate it. S&W 41 is probably not in the budget....
