Im not sure how they consider Barred owls as "invasive".
USUALLY invasive is when flora or fauna show up in areas where they would not naturally be able to spread without human intervention.
Like Starlings come from Europe by way of sailing ships decades ago.
Without humans ships, the Starlings...
Im less than a mile from PA.
Im not selling our family land in NY until I get a good price.
Fortunately I have a business in PA so I can have the toys I want......just not at home. :)
This was over a year ago, Jan 2022, no charges and no conviction.
The NYSP claim its the state of NY who will not allow them to release the firearm.
The state says the local DA or NYSP have to release it.
There may be more to the story but he hasnt been charged with anything or convicted. And...
YET
But there are a lot of things police and prosecutors try.
Even if the charge is eventually dropped, the DA can cause issues.
And like others have mentioned, once the cops get your firearms, it can be difficult getting them back.
I know a guy, not a friend, just know him, who was arrested by...
Unfortunately, the term "family violence" is interpreted by NYS.
Remember, not using "preferred pronouns" is considered violence in NYS.
Not calling your son a girl at their demand, is violence.
There are a LOT of absurd things NYS considers violence.
They need longer lenses.
If the photographers are on public property, there are at least 3 SCOTUS rulings supporting our rights to photograph and record in public.
Even airports, military bases, prisons and all government buildings.
One of the rulings actually says if they want to not be video...
How can you honestly make fun at a time like this.
This guy had a legitimate ARSENAL just rolling through our state!!!
Imagine what he could have done with this HORDE!!!
That damn gun was FULLY SEMI AUTOMATIC!!
Ummmmmmm, sooooooooo, all the militaries in the world, all the GOOD trainers, all the LEOs and all the literature and time tested techniques are wrong?
Wow, this means he is the finest combat trainer in the world!!!
Cant wait to see his technique for transitioning from rifle to pistol in a hurry!!
Actually all Kydex is the same, just different thickness.
Kydex is a brand name made in Pennsylvania.
Even companies like Concealment Express and WTP use REAL Kydex.
There are lesser types of China made TAP plastics, but due to the low price of real Kydex, MOST companies use the REAL PA USA made...
The S&W revolvers are like glocks.
Ask anyone who works in a gun shop.
When new gun owners come in, they very often want a glock.
The "hype" and notoriety of glock, especially in 9mm is pretty much all some people have heard of. I believe the same goes for S&W with revolvers, especially 357...
Well, the statement "prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law" means different things for different people.
For instance.......
A 30 year old veteran with a perfectly clean criminal record who dares to enter a gas station and defend the clerk and patrons from a knife wielding criminal with...
Ive got several revolvers from both brands.
I have never had an issue with either.
I dont like the look of the S&W hammer lock.
In my opinion the Ruger looks better but most disagree.
I believe you can't go wrong with either.
The Ruger is significantly less $$$.
Where I live, I am very much the gray man.
When I go to town, not so much.
Over the last 3 years I have completely changed my look.
I used to be a gray man everywhere I went.
I used to be just an average 6' 200 pound guy with jeans/shorts and a t-shirt. Short hair, clean shaved......
NOW.....im...
My wife and I were in Wegmans the other day and I overheard a lady arguing with the cashier over the 30 cents that her food stamps wouldnt cover for 3 paper bags.
She literally did not have the cash.
Y'all need to settle down.
If the 7th circuit screws this up, the SCOTUS will fix it.
Them intervening now would cause more issues in the future.
Doing it the correct way will seal the deal in the end.
There are a couple good youtube videos of qualified lawyers explaining this.
A friend of mine has a double barrel four bore.
Not sure how old it is but hes had it for a few years.
In an odd twist of fate, about 1 month after he bought it, he went bowling and herniated 2 discs in his back. He has not fired it sinse.
I will get a video of me firing it this weekend to post...
The reason shock therapy is still being used, is because for a small few people, it works and gives relief.
For some people who live in absolute terror and crippling thoughts and mental torment, this therapy can be 100% effective to "quiet" their minds.
This therapy has been grossly over used...
The government isnt dumb.
They know that 90% plus of the younger people these days know NOTHING, and do NOT care about politics, government or history..... period.
There is a youtube guy, named Justin something.......he walks around and asks questions on the street to younger people. You would...
No weed and no jabs.
But im a bad one to ask.......
I do not use tobacco, I dont drink, I dont use caffeine, no illicit drugs....
Im a LOT of fun.
However, growing up in the country, I smoked a LOT of weed.
I then graduated Penn State and Cornell University with a "nearly" 4.0 grade average. :)...
But people who are predisposed to schizophrenia can have their disease triggered by many thousands of things........smells, sounds, medications, injuries, memories, time, illness.....an endless list really.
So, how can anyone PROVE the cause of their break was due to pot?
I have known a LOT of...
Just reading an article like this from NYS always makes me wonder.
Its like a game.....
Do they mean semi auto when they say "machine gun"?
Do they call it a "ghost gun" because its white?
Do they know the definition of a "horde"?
Ahhhh, so many questions.
Well, a couple years ago I stocked one of our ponds with bull head.
Now they are thick as mud.
Not even fun fishing for them anymore.
But the nieces and nephews like it.
Length is much easier and more comfortable to conceal than thickness or grip height.....for me at least.
But I usually choose a longer barrel no matter the grip length or thickness.
Sooo, longer barrel and work with it. You can conceal anything with enough will and effort........in my opinion. :)
Where have you guys been?
I have been citing these ice core samples for years!! :)
Not just ice cores, but sediment "reading" absolutely proves the climate zealots are incorrect in their claims.
For easy to understand FACTS on this topic, there is no better than Randall Carlson.
He is a...
I havent actually looked at my permit in probably a decade, but I just did.
It just says.....
"State Of New York
County of Chautauqua
License to carry pistol is hereby granted"
My PA license says.....
"Pennsylvania license to carry firearms."
When I grew up (70s-80s) everyone had guns and almost nobody locked them up.
Guns were either in closets, drawers, or the old timer glass front gun cabinets with the etched glass doors.....no locks.
We are talking many hundreds of kids over generations with absolutely zero issues.
Back then when...
It still boggles my mind how different laws have been in this state depending on where you live.
Prior to the CCIA it was pretty much the wild west in my county in NYS.
I believe I paid $63 for my unrestricted permit about a decade ago.
$50 for the course, $10 for the permit and $3 to add a...
