Legal and Activism / FFL & Registration
« on: August 13, 2013, 01:54:01 PM »
Just curious, am I required to register a LG that I receive through FFL if I mail it to another FFL right away? Or do I need to register it before mailing to FFL?

 Can shoot out to 1K with a Nightforce 2.5-10.

Here's a video of a guy shooting at 1K with a 16" CL LMT MWS with Nightforce 2.5-10x24 mildot reticle:

General Discussion / MIG Welding

Anyone on Oahu have a basic MIG welder and some experience with it? I have a brake I want to pin. Already have it drilled and have the pin, just need to drop the bead on to weld it in place.

I think you're looking for a gun to commemorate your wedding date, not commensurate  ;)

I'd take a 9" AR-15 in .300 BLK with a SF762 SOCOM MINI.

I just don't understand why a lone police officer would go into a house where there's a known hostage situation and escalate the situation like he did.

Yep, told all my friends this day would be here soon.

Now if we wait another couple months when even more starts showing up and people start getting more desperate because of their big CC bills prices are going to start hitting rock bottom.

Perfect time to buy. ;)

For most people, shooting 10 3-round groups, at least one of them will be sub MOA.

Yep. Which is why 3 round groups are worthless besides for 'bragging' rights. This is why you hear people exclaim they can shoot sub MOA with M193, or hell even M855 when the ammo itself is 3-4 MOA.

For me its 10 round groups. I've seen other people shoot 6 consecutive 5 shot groups as well to get a good idea of the accuracy (and no cherry picking the groups).

He's not saying you have to have five of them, he's saying that if you're in the market for a .45, these are the top five choices that he'd choose.

I didn't even have to watch the video and I understood the intent. Some poeple... SMH

I showed up at 3:55pm for the records division and the door was locked to the firearms registration unit, even though it clearly says they close at 4:30.  :wtf:

Sounds like they're getting off early to play some golf without me.

Again we can argue forever about the future of the 2A and the shooting sports in general.
I think since its a C&C park, can we petition for a change in rules? Just a thought.

I think the easiest way to do it would be to open up the bays during the week. At the moment the bays can only be reserved by a club on weekends.. if they let clubs (which governed themselves and carried insurance) book the bays during the week it would really free things up and give people more chances to work on the specific shooting they wanted to improve.

I'd be interested to see that person. The most fastest and accurate shooter I met was with the All Guard team. 60 seconds, ten rounds into a 3" group at 200 yards with iron sights, sitting. I was the target puller for that shooter.There's probably better at the AMU, Marine Corps team etc - and not just the service rifle shooters.
I agree that we all must come to a consensus but recently I've seen more haphazard shooters that are new to the sport. Doing a 30 round mag dump in less than a minute with no target setup is a waste. Great drill for what ever muscle memory exercise but it is pointless. I'm referring to a shooter at Kokohead that did this till a range officer scolded them. They continued rabid firing with a 10/22 and taking turns looking out for the RO. That's not cool. There's Schofield for that.
In defense of highpower shooting, yes there seems to be less interest in that kind of shooting. A well seasoned Marine referred to it as shooting with the big boys and I've seen people walk away with their tales between their legs - myself included. It takes a certain amount of character to learn, be resilient enough to come back and improve. Some people have a somewhat natural talent for it and shoot well. Some like myself take longer to learn.
We can argue forever but Kokohead range rules are that. Schofield range rules are different and shooters can rabid fire all day there.

I agree rules are rules, but my point is people have different needs. For me thats shooting offhand (standing up with no support). I have a friend who can put 10 rounds within a 6" plate at 100 yards within 10 seconds, shooting offhand (I don't get out enough, I need an 10" plate to land all hits within 10 seconds). I have no need or desire to be able to put 10 shots within a 3" group at 200 yards with iron sights while sitting. If I want to shoot for groups at 200 yards I'll use a bipod and a scope.. and it won't take me 60 seconds.

I also agree its a fine line to draw between the new haphazard shooters and the people who actually safely train and have a need. I just don't think its fair to discount everyone who doesn't follow the NRA/CMP style of shooting (and lets face it, this is most definitely the minority of shooters these days).

Action bays should be open to all, not just clubs.  Give the CMP guys their space, and the practical guys theirs to use their firearms as intended.

Agreed. Its a bit silly how many hoops you have to jump through to use the bays.

My repost.....

"Per NRA and CMP rules, rapidfire is 5 rounds in 10 seconds at the 25 yardline shooting one-handed for Bullseye Pistol.

For High Power Rifle, it is 10 rounds (2 magazines loaded with 2/8 or 5/5), sitting position, iron sights, 200yards, 60 seconds. At 300yards you get 70 seconds in the prone position.

Much of Koko Head rules were modeled from NRA and CMP style shooting"

If you cannot keep your shots on target shooting slow, then don't even try to do it fast.  Work on accuracy, before speed.

Mag dumpers are idiots that waste resources. Ammo is hard enough to get these days.

There's plenty of people that can shoot accurately at a much faster pace then what you quote. Just because the range was modeled from NRA and CMP style shooting doesn't mean its the right and only way someone can shoot. The percentage of shooters who are actually interested in such style shooting is low and most definitely in the minority. There's plenty people with different needs and interests when it comes to shooting and without their interest, participation, and support you can kiss your 2a rights good bye.

If you have the serial number, make, model, barrel length, etc I see absolutely no issue with applying for your permit while its in route (and you've paid for it.. basically its already yours).
