    Boyd, the first form is for your FID card and your pistol permit(s). It has been awhile but I remember several forms I had to fill out. The first was the same as in your first link, the second was release to search my medical records to see if I was ever in a mental institution or treated by a...

    Chrisr, the value of your early Colt 1911 will easily triple if it has any U.S. Army or government property stampings on the slide. It should also have United States Property stamped on the frame. If it is great shape, that pistol can bring three thousand dollars or more if it has a either of...

    How does this happen?

    I do not agree for what this website stands for, but it has a long list of hunting accidents. http://www.all-creatures.org/cash/accident-archive-2010.html

    How does this happen?

    When I use to hunt small game on state land it was a nightmare at times. I can recall several times being swept by shotgun barrels and having shots pass over my head. When I confronted the shooter(s) the most common response was sorry and a shrug of the shoulders. You have to be blind not to see...

    Fall fishing

    Very few of those "college educated" trout live very long once they are released. The trout are use to being fed with pellets at a certain hour (via a spreader and a pick up truck) and seem congregate around their release point. If anyone has the time, take a trip to the Pequest Hatchery and see...

    What fearfu' pranks ensue!

    It is hard to believe that this is a pumpkin! Amazing! Andy Bergholtz is a sculpture who is more famous for children's toys and figurines. Halloween is a week away, enjoy the souling custom of carving a lantern.

    How does this happen?

    This is a classic example of a negligent discharge of a firearm. It wasn't an accident, it was negligence. This action can be either a felony or misdemeanor, depending on the penal code of Oregon and the circumstances surrounding the shooting.

    UARS Satellite Reentry

    The ROSAT satellite re-entered over north-west Thailand, but that is all that is known. This is the second time that a satellite fell to Earth recently and NASA hasn't a clue to where the wreckage landed.

    Firearms

    This is what I shot this summer. All of the ammo was digested by only two pistols, the M&P 45c and the eighty series Colt. I bought the Kimber 22 conversion just to go shoot all day for about a third of the price.

    Firearms

    Ruger did their homework when they designed that pistol. You get everything you need and no "bling". The Gunsite ranch ran Ruger's preproduction pistols through some hard trials and had only a few failures. The failures were do to the pistols needing to be broke in. Honestly, it is hard to build...

    I have been shooting all of my life. I started with a Marlin bolt action 22 when I was around ten. I still have that rifle and it is worn out. I can't even imagine how many rounds have been shot with it, maybe fifteen thousand. I have a sweet spot for the forty-five acp and own several Colt...

    'Ghost of the Pines' documentary

    A century and a half has proven John Mason's design to be done well - little has changed with his threaded jar and lid. Thanks as always and yes, there is never enough time. ;)

    'Ghost of the Pines' documentary

    I thank you again. I was confused because I recall seeing jars embosed with his name and the word improved on the side, but the lid consisted of a glass cap that fit inside of the tin threads. The tin outer piece was then use to secure the glass lid in place. The two pieces combined made the...

    'Ghost of the Pines' documentary

    Jerseyman, thanks for the great information. Your map collection must be incredible! What was used to seal the lids during that time period? Was it wax or did the two piece lid rest tightly against the glass without a sealer of some sort?

    East Point Lighthouse Break-in

    I don't understand why someone would do such a thing. The theft doesn't make sense. The list of stolen items is some dope's Ebay store, that is were the police should look. Could it be someone trying to draw attention for the lighthouse? A mixed up do-gooder ?

    deer contaceptive

    The reason we have so many deer in New Jersey is a simple one: 1) There are no natural predators to keep the population in check and 2) The population has thrived on introduced food sources. Like or not, Whitetail deer are abundant in New Jersey and we have to intervene one way or another to...
