  1. You spent more time writing that then I do ,” worrying .” I know what’s coming and I’m well ahead of things . My summer days are spent in the pool, camping, traveling taking in MLB games and yard work , which I actually enjoy . The there’s the upcoming Alaska trip with a few other couples .
  2. We can hope Rob, but there’s to many rinos for me to have confidence in them blocking it , after all the unsafe act was passed bipartisan . So there’s that .
  3. They will pass a law requiring a license aka rifle permit , just like your pistol permit , to own any semi auto rifle . Rim fires included . Thatll be fun ha ? Look for it real soon . Micro stamping doesn’t work , the “ process “ is owned , patent protected by a single company, many makers flat out refuse to use it, so no guns made for NY . When I said I went to a gun shop yesterday there was a reason ….. Just like stopping in shops while in Fla . You gotta get ahead of the curve fellas . And as luck would have it I picked up a length of 6 inch pvc that was laying in the road on a sharp curve ,just yesterday. A sign from God ?
  4. As an owner of one of Jeremy’s previous Elites , I can say he’s a good man to deal with , despite the fact he hangs around other questionable Buffalo members .
  5. The small key chain stuff can be sold by gun shops and pharmacies of all places . I’d go for,pepper gel and a much larger size , either a “ can “ or “ half can “ size . Buy a few so one cam practice . Buy it on vacation out of state or if you spend enough time looking online you will at one point find someone who’ll ship it to you in NYS . Sabre Red is a proven one I’ve heard
  6. Once again ,I’m in the suburbs , our biggest issue is deer eating our landscaping . Very good schools , and healthcare , I can have my boat in Lake Ontario in five minutes from my driveway . It’s a wonderful place to raise kids , we’re NOT in the city . But if Biden’s build back better stays on the same path , it may very well be one giant sh!t sandwich for us all in a couple years . I realize few here like,to be prepared,and think ahead , it’s just how we roll at the compound . Pool Time ! edit: your only out gunned I’d you miss… https://www.propper.com/blog/armor-levels-which-armor-stop-which-rounds
  7. I’m in the burbs, with ducks deer and rabbits in my yard , with an additional 116 acres in the country . Both kids are on their own a RN here who owns a home in a suburb and a CPA in Buffalo . The issue is the their proximity to the city as well as working in it , and one living in Buffalo proper . Also the cities problems will / are bleeding out of city lines . I have no immediate plans to buy any , although I did get some sweet .357 today .
  8. Actually I priced out some body amor just yesterday. Rochester is a war zone , RPD is down 150 men, oh they’ll say only 100, because they shifted 50 off of staff to the line . Just had a talk with a friend still working for the FD ( he’s a Capt ) he said you can’t get a cop or an ambulance ( this is the FD that can’t, citizens forget it ) . The other night a ATV riding a wheelie hit a cop car head on , rider jumped on another ATV and took off, a ,large crowd gathered and took the ATV that hit the cop car …. Cops ordered not to chase . As far as the ATV , those and dirt bikes ride the streets 50 at a time , they’re stolen from the burbs , most riders are armed and they control the streets . I avoid ,the city at all costs , and when forced to , I go the long route , I also stepped up my carry , and frankly I’m thinking of adding a long gun to the truck . I know if my daughter gets caught up in some sh!t, most likely I’ll beat the cops by a country mile . While I didn’t buy the BA , when the Gov says no , makes me want to even more . Oh and the FD now has it, and many ambulance personal wear it , citizens may not be far off…..
  9. A very real possibility of a glimpse of what’s heading our way, if Republicans don’t prevail this Fall at least as far as AR go . Those being the low hanging fruit . Biden tipped his hand on handguns the other day too . As well as showing his astute knowledge of firearms . Well I just added the gun shop on my list of stops this morning , get ‘‘em while ya can . "The .22 caliber bullet will lodge in the lungs and we can get it out. A 9mm bullet blows the lung out of the body. The idea of a high caliber weapon, there is simply no rational basis for it in terms of self-protection, hunting," Biden said.
  10. I heard Moog posted a Turkey he shot and it broke the internet .
  11. Pro tip . Just drive down Kings Highway in Durand Eastman Park , Roch. You have a good chance to grab them and stuff into sack ,saving ammo .
  12. Yep my diamond guy does that stand outside press a button , while on camera answer who it is , get buzzed in to next area, when outside door closes , you then make it into waiting area, after which you’ll be let in . Background check, Lol . You realize buying just one a box of 50 a person could shoot 50 people right ? I buy by the case for several reasons , one being I can go through a couple hundred rounds in a morning , add in inflation ( i still have 50 round boxes of 9mm that I paid $9 for ) , plus I’m a forward thinking guy , Hell now we have gun owners wanting a “ flag “ when someone buys more ammo then they do . Awesome .
  13. A few months back , perhaps a year idk for sure .
  14. Had a physical recently , first after I retired 4 years back . Vital signs good, lung sounds good , EKG “ fantastic , keep doing what you’re doing “ , so I just ordered more cigars and bought some Gin , Drs orders . My weight was up,to a level I’ve never been ,although Dr never said word one . 185 is my feel the best number , I often drift up,to 192-195 over the winter then drop back down . Last year I never dropped down ,and Fla this winter killed me . So I’m going to drop 15-20 , I do nothing special , cut out junk , cut back on booze , eat smaller meals .
  15. Just heard a bit of a press conference,on the way home from the gym . Shooter bought 1600 rounds and 60 mags , and some were freaking out when they thought he bought 375 rounds .
  16. The police. Depts timeline has changed more times , then where I pick to sit opening morning . The big unasked question in my mind is this . He crashed his truck near the school got out and fired a rifle at two people , that would generate multiple 911 calls . Which would / should then have caused the 911 center to call the school to have them initiate their lock down procedures , as well as caused some responding officers to go to the initial shots fired site and others to the school . Yet 12 minutes later he strolls into the school through an open door met with zero resistance.from LE . my bad he wrecked his truck OUTSIDE the school, fired at the people and the school, yet they didn’t go into lock down , wtf ,cops response time 16 minutes In his comments, Escalon said that the suspect, Salvador Ramos, shot his grandmother and then wrecked his truck in a ditch outside the school at 11:28 a.m. He exited the truck with a rifle and shot at two people across the street, Escalon said. He then approached the school and shot at the building multiple times and walked in through an apparently unlocked door at 11:40 a.m., according to Escalon.
  17. All of that is incorrect . He crashed his truck, near the school, shot at two,people then walked into the school via a back door 12 minutes later all unopposed by any Leo ! Once o/s it took the cops and hour to go in and get him , although it’s rumored that some cops went in and got their kids out ….. The kid could have used a muzzle loader with that response . https://www.texastribune.org/2022/05/26/uvalde-school-shooting-police-response/
  18. One of the issues with an officer in each school, is the shear numbers of schools . A quick look shows 11 schools in my town plus a couple private ones . That’s more then the total number of patrol officers on any one shift . We’d need to hire a boatload of cops , then working exclusively in a school isn’t going to lead to much , policing experience for those new guys . As it is those positions have not exactly always attracted the hard chargers . I guess they could be rotated in and out . Would have been nice if the cops at this last one hadn’t stood outside for 40 minutes ,arguing with parents who were screaming at them to go in . I thought we changed that sog after columbine .
  19. Spanish flu , Asian flu, West Nile , Ebola and on and on . Now that’s all racist , a word that’s been so deluded down ,that it’s hard for some take the label serous anymore . I recall a diversity class years ago, where I was taught it was racist to ask a black co worker ,if he watched the game last night , wtf if I didn’t ask him would that also be racist as I excluded him from normal everyday conversations we have ?
  20. Grass is very good ,flowers starting to bloom , ordering the mulch today . The dirt on the corner is where Greenlight dug up the yard last Fall, I have other dug up spots too . They came through while we were camping and repaired the damage in our yard , the only one they repaired in the neighborhood out of dozens. haha Several neighbors asked if I did the work myself , nope I called them and they sent a landscape company. They also have been calling everyone from Greenlight to the town with no results. You gotta call the right person …..
  21. People will cut back where they can , there’s guys here who drive 50k trucks ,hauling air , yet drive around looking to save a few pennies on a gallon of gas .
  22. https://www.dec.ny.gov/press/125434.html https://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife_pdf/2021deerrpt.pdf
  23. I’m certainly not much of a Turkey hunter, but the guy who,lives behind my spot shoots a Tom every year . He goes in around 9AM , this year he got it on day one, after taking his wife to breakfast .

    MLB 2022

    When you’re up 18-0 you can let Molina close ! https://www.mlb.com/news/yadier-molina-makes-first-mlb-pitching-appearance
  25. DW. .22 was my first handgun sometime in the ‘80s, what a great gun , best trigger I’ve ever had, both in single and double action . Six inch blue , still have it . Had a 8 inch SS heavy barrel .44 mag ,that sucker ran just under four pounds ,but that helped with the .44’s recoil . Killed a few deer with it . Sold it to a friend of a member here many years back , it was the only DW model he lacked in his collection . They were / are ? Great guns . DW has gone through a few owners and reincarnations , I know little of todays guns .
