A Win in the Garden State - This Week on Gun Talk Radio

Mandeville, LA – It’s a new giveaway announcement, a win in New Jersey, an Olympic nominee, and more, this week on Tom Gresham's Gun Talk® Radio, the original nationally-syndicated radio talk show about guns and the shooting sports.

For the first time in the state’s history, New Jersey’s Appellate Division of the Superior Court applied the 2nd Amendment Right to “Keep and Bear Arms” to order the return of an individual’s seized firearms and gun license, reports Attorney Evan Nappen (www.evannappen.com.) Nappen drops in with info on this case, and what it means for gun rights in the state.

Olympic nominee Matt Emmons will compete in London this summer in both Men’s 10m Air Rifle and Men’s 50m Rifle Three Position. Emmons has won multiple World Cup medals since 2002, and medals in both the 2004 and 2008 Olympics, and visits Gun Talk to discuss his upcoming competitions. Read more about Emmons at http://www.usashooting.org/12-the-team/usashootingteam/nationalteam/nationalrifleteam/mattemmons.

Also on Sunday, John Vehr of Timney Triggers stops by Gun Talk with details on the latest giveaway! Tune in for more info, and check out www.timneytriggers.com

Thank God, Tom Gresham is keeping this story alive.

The Roberts ruling and the MSM have buried it.

Stay off of Google:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2901742/posts

Google bans gun sales on US shopping center

Ammo and accessories too.

[smokingfrog]

They should have waited until tomorrow to have the contempt vote.

[mylife]

Ebay sucks as well

[davetex]

These are crazy times we are living in POW!!

[smokingfrog]

Interesting development with what Issa did on the house floor.

The letter contains information about wiretap applications that would tell anyone reading them what tactics were being used in the operation. The information in the letter directly contradicts statements by the Attorney General that such information did not exist in the applications.

[mylife]

They really should have.
Surely they knew that the Scotus decision would obscure the Contempt vote in the news cycle.

[mylife]

Howdy Dave.

Weird indeed.

[mylife]

"With" Holder is saddened.

[carriage_hill]

Hi smokingfrog!

How’d you get that weather dashboard on your fr page to set-up at weatherforyou.com?

[smokingfrog]

7.62x39 magazines for an AR cost twice as much as 5.56 mags.
But the ammo is quite a bit cheaper.

[mylife]

Word is that Ammo depot has a Shansi .45 cal Broom Handle Mauser for sale

I’m currently a believer in 5.45x39

[AZ .44 MAG]

I’ve bought a holster through Amazon lately.

BTW Glen’s Army Navy ( http://www.glensoutdoors.com/ ) has a pretty good deal on XM193. As I type this they have stock.

XM193BK Federal Lake City Tactical XM193 5.56 x 45mm 55 Grain FMJ BT - 1000 Rounds 1 $329.95 $329.95

As I said to Frog upstream, I’m currently a believer in 5.45x39

Guys! It’s raining here 75 degs windows open.

Hallelujah!

[Clint N. Suhks]

Finally found an open gas station all the way into DC to fill the generator.
Every station around is either closed because no electricity or they are sold
out of gas because there’s a run on fuel. Got two more days worth. Everyone has left except us, it’s a ghost town around here. PEPCO says we won’t be up
till Friday. Across the river in VA Old DOminion says they will be up on Tuesday. This carp is F’d UP!

[AZ .44 MAG]

May be a great round but I can’t shoot it through my AR-15.

Betcha Google won’t sell 5.45x39 either.

[mylife]

5.56 prices need to come down,

[mylife]

Its ballistically comparable to 5.56 at half the price.

[mylife]

Its ballistically comparable to 5.56 at half the price.
and you can get AR uppers that handle it.

[smokingfrog]

Yikes! That’s a long time to go without electrons.

Is your generator big enough to run AC?

Any looting going on yet?

[mylife]

Whats going on?
Power outages?

[umgud]

I buy a lot thru Amazon. You can get almost everything there.

[AZ .44 MAG]

5.56 prices need to come down,

So does 0h0m0. Could be a positive feedback loop.

[2111USMC]

Speaking of triggers, I installed a Northwood trigger kit in my KelTec P-11 last night.

Can’t wait to get to the range. Dry fired it about 10 times using a spent cartridge because I didn’t have any snap caps. It feels like an entirely different gun!

For any KelTec owners out there:

[AZ .44 MAG]

Its ballistically comparable to 5.56 at half the price. and you can get AR uppers that handle it.

Good info, I'll follow up on that fer sure!

[mylife]

Was it tricky to install?

I hate all those pins and springs that go sproing!

[Clint N. Suhks]

No looting but the SOLO is always in arm’s reach. The gen is 6500 watts and it runs everything but we just have a window unit running and hunkered down in the great room.

[Clint N. Suhks]

Sudden storm Friday that had hurricane like sustained winds. Surprised everyone. DC area was completely caught off guard.

[mylife]

That doesnt look like it would change the trigger action at all.

[carriage_hill]

Hi Clint; glad to hear you and yours are okay. That was a brutal *dereco* on Friday. We got hammered here on the Farm with lightening strikes and wind. Power was only out for 6-7hrs. We were lucky. Just heard Fox News that 3mm still out of power. Did you try up into PA for gas? Or is that too far?

[mylife]

Wow I’m out loop. Hope all is well.

[davetex]

Stay safe Clint. Remember situational awareness!!

Hope you get power back soon.

[2111USMC]

The manufacturer has very good illustrated instructions.
(He even gives you warnings for those step where springs and parts can go flying.)

I took my time and did a little fluff & buff on the trigger bar since I had it entirely disassembled. It took me close to 3 hours. I could probably do another one in less than an hour now that I'm completely familiar with the design and parts.

[carriage_hill]

Thanks!

[mylife]

fluff and buff is good.

[Clint N. Suhks]

PA is a little far. VA will be the next trip if necessary because their power company doesn’t suck.

[2111USMC]

It changes the “feel” of the trigger dramatically.

The stock plastic one has too much curve in it and it would give me a blood blister on the bottom of my trigger finger after only about 10 rounds. The stock plastic trigger also beat your finger up with a sensation similar to trigger slap.

The feel on the trigger finger and the perceived trigger pull of the Northwood unit is 1000 percent better.

[carriage_hill]

This is the one that blew thru from Midwest to East Coast - 1,200 miles @ 60mph+ and did a sh*tload of damage/death.

http://www.foxnews.com/weather/2012/06/30/mid-atlantic-storms-knock-out-power-to-nearly-2-million/?test=latestnews

3 million still out of power.

[mylife]

Interesting how a slight ergonomic change can make such a difference.

[Clint N. Suhks]

WOW! Those are great prices! But they are sold out of everything except the Russian and WOLF stuff in .308 :o(
