    Went Deer Hunting saw nothing but this cool Owl

    We saw one a few years back. It was very cool, as they don't often come that far south. It was all the way across a field, though, so we weren't able to see any details like this. Awesome that you were able to get so close AND get a picture to share!!

    Upstate NY Losing More Jobs

    If we end up having to sell the NJ house and move to PA, hubby may be doing exactly that. We're going to try and stay in NJ if at all possible, rather than uproot the kids again. Plus, our part of PA is so rural that they wouldn't be able to continue in most of the activities they're doing...

    Report: Gov. Cuomo's office under FBI investigation

    The article mentions a "Dormitory Authority". WTF? Why on earth do we need to have and fund a dormitory authority?!

    #metoo movememt...

    It's totally out of control. Some woman that one of my friends knows just got a server at a café in trouble because he said she looked tired, and she took offense to it. She said it was inappropriate for him to be commenting on her looks. Good grief!

    Trump, Mattis turn military loose on ISIS, leaving terror caliphate in tatters

    I'd be happier if we'd remove our military from those hell holes.

    7mm 08

    Most of my ammunition for the 7mm-08 is 140 grain, but I picked up a couple boxes of the heavy stuff because they were cheap - well, on sale anyway. I won't do that again, lol.

    7mm 08

    Nope. I'm wrong. They're 120 grain, and it's Hornady.

    7mm 08

    I'm recoil sensitive, so take this with a 'grain' of salt, but I find no difference in recoil with the 168 grain 7mm-08 and my hubby's .308. I'm sure part of the difference is that his gun is heavier (mine is a Savage with a cheap-o plastic stock, his is a Weatherby in wood and stainless), but...

    November Target Challenge

    We're still waiting to hear whether he's out of a job. We may have way more time than money coming up! Figure $60 for the gas and $50 for the part. He says something else needs to be moved (sorry, don't know what) before he can get to the starter. Not sure we could get it done here in Jersey...

    Where to buy complete NY compliant AR

    Sheesh, you guys. It's not like he came in here looking for a non-compliant. Send him to a reputable FFL and let them sort it out. OP, BulletGuy is honest and has some great stuff for sale. Check out his vendor page or website. Oh, and welcome to the madness and greatness that is NYGF!

    November Target Challenge

    Welp. No shooting for me. Starter in the Grand Cherokee died, which means we're not going out to PA because that's the only car that holds the kids, dogs, band instruments and other crap we drag with us. The only gun I have in NJ is the 1911, and I don't belong to any ranges here. Hubby is...

    Sarah Palin says she has never been harassed

    Completely agree. The increase in the military budget this year has me fuming - even greater than the increase Trump asked for, which was already ridiculous. We should be getting out of the stinking Middle East. Spend the budget that exists on helping servicemen so they don't have to die...

    Sarah Palin says she has never been harassed

    As for the whole sexual "assault" thing.... I stayed out of the 'me too' nonsense because too many females think sexual assault is if you brush against them without their permission. Women have done themselves no favors with this. Instead of bringing attention to serious issues, it came...

    November Target Challenge

    'About' is the key word. I don't think we've ever both been in state at the same time, lol. For supposed PA residents, neither of us spends a hell of a lot of time there. We'll get there Wednesday and leave early Sunday.

    FBI Releases Docs On Sandy Hook Showing Feds Visited Shooter BEFORE Massacre

    One of the many things that always bothered me about this was that there was even a gag order on the company and employees who demolished the building. Then the FBI releases reports where entire pages are redacted. Why even bother with the release? The even redacted Nancy Lanza's ex-husband's...

    Since Podmonkey has a new dream gun, now I do as well

    I dunno. I'm not crazy about the scooped-out trigger guard there, but I guess it's minor. Love the orange color of the CZ in the original post. If a Glock fits your hand well, I can see why a person wouldn't like the grip of the CZ. I love the idea of having a Glock, but that grip is so...

    In NJ. Doing the football thing with the boys. The shit I put up with, I tell ya. Every single fall weekend stuck here. If my older one didn't love to play so much, I'd be rooting for the opposing team so we don't make the play-offs. Still don't have sights completely done on the AR, nor have I...

    True, but do people really bring ten rifles to training? Honest question - I have no idea. Just doesn't seem like an ordinary thing to do.
