The underside of the eggplant leaf looks to have a raised dark spot on it. If it's still there, try picking it off. It looks like it could be a Tortoise bug. The neem oil will work.
I'm a big fan of miracle grow potting soil. The 2 Cu. Ft. bag runs $11-12 on sale. Definitely worth it IMO. I'm also a big fan of Jack's Classic 20-20-20 while I'm trying to figure out fertilization around transplant time. Sometimes I get the plants in the ground late and they need fertilizer...

I've been watching the traffic cams on I-190 for the last hour or so. Traffic has been light outside of the multi-vehicle MVA by Elm Street earlier.

That has all the indications of a Morel. Honeycomb cap exterior, hollow cap, hollow stem, stem joins to cap at bottom of cap - stem does not protrude into cap. Lookalikes (sometimes poisonous) may have a brain like appearance on the outside of the cap, but wont have the nice honeycomb this...
Looks good. Is that debris in the stem from you opening the cap earlier? The hollow stem should connect directly to the hollow cap, and there shouldn't be anything in the center.
Maybe throw some sheets/tarps over your favorite tree and put a propane lantern or other heat source in the tree? The heat will rise and the sheets would help trap it. Might save some of the tree. Could do the same with the blueberry bushes, a regular light bulb might even put out enough heat...
You singled out a section of the law without considering how it was tied to another piece.
This section...

That's normal. The brass is hitting the op rod. The Garand will spin a cartridge around as it ejects and that beats up the brass a bit. Check out this video:
Oddly enough, you'll also want to get a muzzleloading stamp when you get your license.
With a standard big game license you can only use a crossbow during the regular season. To get the extra time you need to add a muzzleloading stamp. With the Muzz stamp you can use a crossbow the last two...
The grease is Vietnam era, for the Garand and 1903. There's a gross of small vials in the box. They're selling on Ebay for a few dollars each on average. Past sales show $8 for 3, or $25 for 20. There's a guy offering the empty box for $10 but I don't see that any have sold. There's another guy...
Cranks not legal in NY...
26. "RAPID-FIRE MODIFICATION DEVICE" MEANS ANY BUMP STOCK, TRIGGER
CRANK, BINARY TRIGGER SYSTEM, BURST TRIGGER SYSTEM, OR ANY OTHER DEVICE

FIREARM, RIFLE OR SHOTGUN.
I think this is legal in NY. The new law doesn't affect it. First off, it's not a semi-automatic:

Neither are Hydra-shocks. Hydra-shocks have a post in the center of the cavity and are head stamped by Federal.
I think the first one is a Winchester-Western JHP. Guessing from around the 80's. The second looks to be Speer Gold Dots. The Speer is an 8 petal bullet in your picture, but the...
Presumtive possession. PL 265.15 (3). If the gun is not on one person, if it's just somewhere in the car, then all occupants in the car are considered in possession of it.
I thought the 4 page article did a great of covering the timeline and making the necessary calls for justice.
I guess that's not allowed though - the entire article has been deleted.
That's the first line of defense for sure. Be inconspicuous. Going to the big event near you with a big ol' Buck knife on your hip is only going to bring you attention. First, it's tactically stupid. Second, the Police are going to get "if you see something, say something" calls. They will be...
As usual, it's the lousy way the laws were written that get us into trouble. 265.15(4) provides the presumptive evidence of intent for almost any object if you "adapt' it for use primarily as a weapon. Adapt is a broad word. It doesn't necessarily mean modify. A piece of heavy chain under your...
The messages Saturday night offered only HF frequencies to listen and check in. What's worse, is that they're all in 60 meters where most radios can't transmit. Maybe Sunday's noon time message will open things up. I'll post if it does.
I haven't seen them posted anywhere. It appears you need to listen to the HF comms on Saturday night and Sunday morning to get the local frequencies and instructions.
That's correct - absolute and total nonsense. I don't have to agree with it, but we are bound by their rules (like it or not). And they wouldn't know about it... unless they already know. That's my concern. I don't know if this is even possible, but if the stripped receiver is already "listed"...
This is what I was thinking, and the reason I brought it up. It may be an FFL screw-up if the stripped lower is transferred as anything other than an Other, but it's ultimately something that would bite the weapon's owner in the ass if it was wrong.
That said, if the manufacturer listed it with...
If a person bought a stripped lower some time ago with the intention of using it for a Rifle (yet never did build it) but the ATF form lists that purchase of the receiver as a "rifle", would that pose a problem for using it to build (for the very first time) an Other?
I don't know what the ATF...
