  1. I'd say Circleville should have been listed. One of the friendliest towns I have lived in.
  2. 'Restricted' weapons legally on sale in Stafford "In a heavily guarded store just southwest of Houston, twin .50-caliber "Ma Deuce" machine guns rise up side by side from a mount that could be bolted to the deck of a warship or truck bed. The guns can fire about 1,200 rounds a minute and take down a plane. The price tag reads $75,000. They are among an arsenal of "restricted" or Class 3 weapons, all legal and for sale at Houston Armory, a company that caters to the elite of the gun world and specializes in machine guns, silencers and other weapons required to be registered with the U.S. government. A few feet away is a fully operational M-60 machine gun, similar to the one carried by "Rambo" through the jungle. There also is a pristine-condition Tommy gun modeled like those used in the Al Capone days. About 28,690 machine guns are legally owned and registered in Texas, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. That includes thousands of such guns believed to be in Harris County and the surrounding area and owned by private citizens, as well as corporations and police departments....." http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Restricted-weapons-legally-on-sale-in-Stafford-4193647.php?cmpid=houtexhcat
  3. Doesn't sound like its going away. This is being pushed by Cuomo who has aspirations of a run at the White House.
  4. "In New Jersey, one of 18 new gun bills submitted to the legislature would require gun buyers to submit to a psychological evaluation." http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/01/15/16515653-new-york-poised-to-pass-major-gun-law-first-since-newtown-massacre
  5. "S2230-2013: Licensure, suspension and revocation of firearms licenses" http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S2230-2013 -7 round mag limit -NO grandfathering of pre 1994 mags / rifles -Registration of "assault weapons" -No online ammo sales -All ammo sales to be tracked -Renew license after 5 years The provisions discussed in private conferences were confirmed to The Associated Press by five officials, Republicans and Democrats, in the Assembly and the Senate. The proposals would: —Further restrict assault weapons to define them by a single feature, such as a pistol grip. Current law requires two features. —Make the unsafe storage of assault weapons a misdemeanor. —Mandate a police registry of assault weapons. —Establish a state registry for all private sales, with a background check done through a licensed dealer for a fee, excluding sales to immediate relatives. —Require a therapist who believes a mental health patient made a credible threat to use a gun illegally to report the threat to a mental health director who would then have to report serious threats to the state Department of Criminal Justice Services. A patient's gun could be taken from him or her. —Ban the Internet sale of assault weapons. —Restrict ammunition magazines to seven bullets, from the current 10. Current owners of higher-capacity magazines would have a year to sell them out of state. An owner caught at home with eight or more bullets in a magazine could face a misdemeanor charge. —Require that stolen guns be reported within 24 hours. Otherwise, the owner would face a possible misdemeanor. —Increase sentences for gun crimes including for taking a gun on school property. —Limit the state records law to protect handgun owners from being identified publicly. The provision would allow a handgun permit holder a means to maintain privacy under the Freedom of Information law. The proposal comes as Republican state Sen. Greg Ball criticized The Journal News newspaper for identifying pistol permit holders in Westchester and Rockland counties based on a FOIL request. The officials requested anonymity because lawmakers hadn't yet signed off on some provisions. The castration of America has begun. Now we can wait and see what Washington does.......bet it ain't gonna be pretty.
  6. Tried to listen to the first vid but wayyyyyy too longwinded just getting to the point.
  7. Welcome! Come on down and let's ride.
  8. Personally because of cost I would shop ebay. Know the size you want and quite often you can find good bags for a good price.
  9. Sad to say I've watched many of these 'no name' movies.....hate to think how much of my life has been totally wasted.
  10. Cool! Raining here now.....looks like the swap meet in Delaware tomorrow will be a good way to kill some time.
  11. Yep, got out for a bit. Stopped and sprayed the bike off then rode it to dry her down. Skies look nasty not nice and sunny like yesterday but its warm and the ride was fantastic....
  12. I was thinking about trying it too

    swap meet

    I read about a swap meet in Delaware at the county fairgrounds on Sunday the 13th. Anyone going?
  14. I read some reviews.....not so good.
  15. Wow, pretty awesome. Wouldn't want to ride in it, but I sure would love to drive it. Trouble is it would take some time to get used to it so it could be taken through the twisities at a proper speed, proper to the build.
  16. Took the doggie out this a.m., man is it ever temperate outside, seems warmer than the 49 the thermom. says it is. Things are wet but hopefully dry up by sunrise or shortly after. Itching to get back out after yesterday.....
  17. Its awesome out today. Enjoy your ride man, and be careful. The road is a bit slick in spots.
