It has been my understanding that the prohibition of loaded firearms in a vehicle had to do with transportation. We all know that there is no jacking from a vehicle...per ECL.
Interesting. I think I'll give the old judge's office a call and ask about the truck bed angle.
Red wing blackbirds are here, must be spring.
My local range has a less than optimized layout, and one way to work around it would be a bench in the bed of my pickup. Might be good when shooting on state land too...even on my own property.
Anybody do this? There are several commercial...
Choices are endless. Like many of us, over time the rifle rack fills up with all kinds of stuff. I still use a slug gun. With the field barrel and choke tubes all my needs are met, be they birds, big or small game...versatile and affordable, although sabot slugs are stupid money.
Then I got...
The signals I learned were for mostly for moving vehicles and operating wreckers. I taught the wife several and that has been very useful over the years.
My local guy takes stuff on consignment...we've both done well, I got my price and he made his money. My third consignment sale is there right now. True it takes some time, but the racks are mostly empty and stock is unavailable. It is a sellers market, and I'm the seller.
I've no argument with anything said, but isn't the OP putting the cart before the horse? I would think the discussion of what rifle should follow a consideration of game, hunting lands/conditions...maybe even caliber first.
Personally, I think a lot of folks head out with way too much...
FU Amazon.
Sad. For years I've tried to avoid, as best I could, taking money out of my pocket and giving it to those who basically shit on liberty.
Even more sad, I used to shop through Amazon Smile and direct donations to St. Jude's...no more. But Amazon IS out of control and I do my best to...
I read the article, what, two days ago. Eighty-two, good for him. And his views, who cares. Keep in mind folks, it ain't him per se, it's the media and manipulation by inference. See, he's a gunsmith with the right ideas. And now you know the truth.
That guy is simply a tool. And his shop...
I had no expectations when I emailed them. But here's the best...I mentioned a vendor who did ship to NY...and the response was, "we don't know about other vendors."
What kind of business knows nothing about their direct competition?
Same here. My biggest gripe, is that the FFL "surcharge" is basically arbitrary, just like the firearm transfer fee. Whatever it may be, it is added cost to the consumer.
So I find some 9mm on the web, Lucky Gunner, checked it out. No shipping to NYC, no mention of NYS. Emailed to ask if they would ship to my zip. They will only ship to FFLs.
I briefly explained our situation with the Unsafe Act, that one vendor in particular does ship, and that they have...
Of course I don't want to create a headache for somebody else. Anything I've released off my own property went to the boonies, and will in the future.
Give us the old Conservation Department....
That bear must have been 400 lbs.....
WTF? So as I said, I bought a trap, now I find out that it's a violation to release trapped critters off your own property? DEC says disease risk?
Now what, kill em anyway?
WTF? I don't get it...just goes to show that THEY are out there, and their mental illness manifests itself in ways you can't even imagine. That is, until you see it for yourself.
I believe you are correct. I lived nearby years ago, but back then it used to be Goldstock's...I might be wrong.
Goldstock's was a sporting goods store way back in Schenectady, like 100 years ago. They were on Broadway then moved to Glenville and sold mostly skiing stuff as I remember. I...
Oh the patina!
Seriously, if it was me, I'd refinish the thing...not much to it. But a good cleaning will still give you an interesting wall hanger. Hey, it was grandpa's, keep it in the family...pass it down the line.
