Makes me wonder if this would count as not having a pistol-grip for feature counting prohibitions.
CT resident here. It counts 🙁 Our shitty new law specifically bans thumbhole stocks 🙁
Whether or not to share or loan ammunition is a difficult question. Plenty of people prioritized frivolous stuff over ammunition purchases. Those people made their beds and now they get to lie in them. And I made my “bed” — I scoured several guns stores in two cities over the course of three months to purchase what I wanted to have on hand. That took considerable effort and expense on my part. I am reluctant to give it away to others who did not invest the same amount of effort.
I am willing to take new people out shooting and share some ammunition for free or at cost. However, I don’t have a stockpile so I have quite a limited ability to help out in that respect. And if things really go to hell in a hand basket, I would be willing to share a couple boxes of ammunition with close friends, neighbors, or family that I know are going to stand up for what is right. The last thing I want to do is provide ammunition to people who are going to use it to pillage and plunder.
As for law enforcement, they could well be the ones coming to confiscate our firearms or ammunition. There is no way that I am going to equip the people that could be coming to take mine away.

“For example, NRA’s National School Shield Task Force report says nothing about repealing the Gun-Free School Zones Act (GFSZA) of 1990. The Act makes it a federal offense to carry a firearm inside a school zone unless the gun owner has a carry permit (so much for Constitutional carry) and the school doesn’t ban firearms from its grounds and the surrounding area.”
Acutally, the position is quite in line with another quote from the report:
“The ultimate decision regarding whether to introduce any form of armed security at a school must always be made by local stakeholders on the ground”
Under 18 U.S.C. § 922(q)) it is only a *federal* offense to carry if one is not licensed to carry in that state, or “(iv) by an individual for use in a program approved by a school in the school zone;”. So, again, the local stakeholders certainly have the option to set the parameters of the program. Notice that the term program is not defined, so anything that the school board wants to define as a program will do. Want to carry where your kids go to school? Get involved in the school board.

Damn it! My Dad and thought of this years ago with a cut down .410! Got to market this stuff faster.
If someone I knew was out f ammo for self defense I would give, not loan or sell, it to them. So far no one I know is it that situation. However, I won’t be loaning, giving or selling any ammo for practice. So far I have been able to successfully manage my inventory so as not to drop below my mininum requirements. The only problem caliber I have is 9mm.
• Loaned? Yes. To a trusted few. And they usually give back in spades, often with better ammo than I loaned them. Hey, I said they were a trusted few. 😀
• Mostly I’ll sell my stock (in small quantities) to friends at ‘Pre-Insanity’ prices (that is, MY COST before things went out the window last Dec). Is that smart? Maybe, maybe not. I prefer trusted armed friends with ammo over trusted armed friends with empty mags.
• Give away? Okay, if I’m taking a newby to the range in an earnest attempt to proselytize a new ‘fellow of the gun’ free ammo is ammo well spent in most cases.
• Give ammo away to my local LEs? Nyet. Nada. Not a chance. Pfffft. ROTFLMAOCBOMGGACK 😉 Maybe they should ask for some from DHS. Sounds like they have a little extra (or the social security administration…)
The Perazzi Company, contrarily to what has been reported, is very familiar with the US legislation on weapons …
Well, maybe. Or maybe not. Signora Perazzi and her legal counsels may know our laws better than an average American citizen. The fact remains that many Americans and especially Colorado residents— including 55 Colorado sheriffs—are not so certain they understand how to comply with and enforce our own laws.
looks like the mag well is sized for 9mm or something?
If these machines can print a good-tasting pepperoni pizza, I’m buying one today.
I don’t know enough about archery to make an informed statement. But wouldn’t adding this device and it’s payload to the end of the arrow cause a signifigant effect on the performance of the arrow? Bows are a short range weapon and wouldn’t this reduce the effective range further? You would have to do a lot of practice to get the feel for your new projectile and at 40 bucks a six pack that can get real expensive real fast.
Oooh this give me hope that someone will create the Magpul PDR “drop in” kit for an AR… Please do this someone…
Interesting name, “Charon,” named after the ferryman who takes souls to Hades.
Might present an image problem taken advantage of by the grabbers.
Drop an AR57 upper on there = poor man’s PS90?
He stopped in NJ??????
Pop No-Doz, keep driving
This is my kind of ridiculous!
OOOOH, look – there goes another genie out of the bottle!! The ‘Bamster’s bureaucrats better jump on this one quick! Ooops, too late.
Maybe the Prez can issue an Exec order banning independent thought.
Also, there is no “pocket-veto” in NJ. He can sign them, veto them, or pocket them (which is like signing them without signing them but they become law after 45 days)
What about using the slowest (or fastest I am no reloader) powder with the smallest bullet (maybe pulling the bullet out and leaving the jacket so you can have more powder in). This is purely hypotheticaly of course.
IF “KRISPY KREAM” signs them he can kiss his prez run goodbye
Good Lord Governor, hurry up and sign these bills so I can finalize my summer vacation plans for Newark. I will feel much safer.

Conscience, Morality and Rights my good friends…Conscience, Morality and Rights.
For those who may not know–and there are, unfortunately many who do not — there exists a power of determination which only the more informed of Citizens hold when called upon to serve as members of a jury.
Associated with the term ‘nullification’, as in ‘Jury Nullification’.
Definable in part as ‘the decision by a jury to acquit a defendant who has violated a law that the jury believes is unjust or wrong’.
Nullification is what is may be understood in context as the third within the following phrases: Soap Box, Ballot Box, Jury Box, Cartridge Box.
Given the information as provided in Mr. Reininger’s case:
I’ve no reservation whatsoever in stating that had I been one of the jurors in this case, I would have fully informed the other members of their power of nullification, and insisted it was their Moral obligation and duty as Morally-conscious Citizens to acquit Mr. Reininger of all charges.

Drugging arrows: Several years back, there was a rubber “boot” you could add to arrow shafts behind the broadhead that would peel back on the arrow being pushed through the animal. The boot was secured to the arrow at the back of the boot (which was, oh, I dunno – maybe 1+ inch long?) and had a curled-up edge that was at the front (behind the broadhead). The idea was that the rubber boot would peel back over itself to the rear of the arrow, exposing the contents into the wound channel.
Underneath the rubber boot would be poisons or drug OD’s in the form of powder.
I assume it wasn’t all that effective, because it disappeared from the market relatively quickly. Don’t remember the maker or the price.
Maybe we should consider embracing such tools to use for
civil disobedience in schools. We’ve had kids suspended
for paper, pictures, pop tarts and even pointing while going
pew, pew, pew (needless alliteration for today). Giving
these to a few hundred or even thousand kids could help
show how insane some interpretations of zero-tolerance
rules can be.
I like how you think. If I was called, I’d tell them to chill out – cause its a flippin’ wooden ruler.
First, that’s some fast shooting in the 3rd pic. There are 2 shells in the air and a 3rd being cycled out of the breech.
I think the lady in the last pic is cheating, as she appears to be using an Easy Button from Staples.
Man, look at that mug. Talk about backpfeifengesicht.
Anyone notice that is coffee mug says, “The Boss,” … and he is pointing to the word “Boss” with his little finger?
Talk about someone with a dictator complex.
What I don’t understand is how almost everyone thinks the United States is somehow immune to tyranny.
He used to be our problem – now he’s Austin’s problem, and I wouldn’t trust him either. That’s why you’ve got to fight crappy gun laws wherever you live. Another Example – don’t let McCain screw up Arizona – I’d like to live there after I retire.
Dude, I feel for you. Unfortunately, I have to break something to you. You state the following as indisputable fact:
“Since the Aurora and Newtown shooting sprees, facts supporting what we here at TTAG already know have been found, collated, sorted, sifted, and put out in a comprehensible bundle; that more law abiding gun owners – especially ones who carry a firearm – result in lower crime. And that gun free zones are the preferred venues for mass shooters.”
The problem is that people like your brother, and Feinstein, and Schumer, and Biden, and Obama don’t see it that way. They’ve sifted the facts too and come to a very different conclusion – only by the complete outlawing of guns can people be safe. They live in a very different world than we do and as such, you can’t expect them to ever see things the way you do. I hate to say it, but for now, you kinda gotta write your bro off as a lost cause. Unless and until he experiences one of those “oh shit” moments (or has someone close to him who does), his viewpoints are not going to change.
Funny how there’s a fine line between clever and stupid.
Dear Austin,
Our semi-weekly meetings are getting old. Your tie-dye shirts and obnoxious theater goers are too much for me to take. You try to dress up when we go out and your 85mph toll road is nice….but something is missing between us. I can’t help but feel that you think you are smarter than everyone else, and you sure as hell don’t like it when your views are challenged by facts and logic. I suppose the only one to blame for this failed relationship is me….I thought I could change you. How silly of me to think that you could change.
You are pretty, and I’m sure you will find a nice guy or gal from California or New York to make you happy. For both our sakes…..I think we should break up.
It’s not me…it’s you.
Your X BFF,
Texas
Q. Mr. Holder so you recused yourself?
A. Yes
Q. When did you do this?
A. I don’t remember…
Q. Did you put it in writing?
A. No, I did not.
Q. Well, who did you tell?
A. I can’t remember telling anyone…
Q. Mr. Holder, if a tree falls in the forest and there is no one there, does it make a sound?
If I was the teacher with the gun and found out who the rat was….their life would be hell on Earth.
