Illustrative of my point: Earlier there was a thread that was quickly deleted wherein a member was complaining that he was being banned as a result of someone else's post. As I understand the problem he posted something in the classifieds and another member started posting in his classified...
One of the things I enjoy online is being able to argue and voice my opinion. This site reached a point where that got to be very difficult to do without breaking one of the many rules. If I have a pet peeve it is people who apply rules just for the sake of applying them and getting to punish...
That is where I think both sides get it wrong. It is ok to dislike something about this site yet still come here. It is ok to like another site better yet still come over here on occaision. Why should it be so black and white that we either have to swear off this site forever or make it our...
I'll be the weird guy who admits that INGO is not his favorite site. It is ok but when too many of the people that I liked to chat with got banned and started their own site I started hanging out over there more often. I still get on here occassionally because I have friends that hang out here...
Same result using Casemaker.
I can say first hand that units of local government, like some businesses, experience a near constant stream of frivolous lawsuits. Such suits are more rare between individuals because most individuals lack the personal wealth to pay off even nuisance value in a...
A thing to donsider is that we got this done with 3 Democrat County Commissioners, so don't tell me that it will never happen in your county. We need to get similar efforts rolling in the other 91 Counties.
Exactly what I was thinking. To me, something that can be "readily restored" means I could carry it around as a semi-auto, but if I decided to commit a crime with it I could step into a bathroom and in a few minutes convert it to full auto. If a skilled person with a machine shop is required...
Kind of what I was thinking. Did you notice that one of the cases they relied on in making their ruling was based on spending 8 hours in a machine shop with a skilled machinist?
Based on a suggestion by someone one here that I really respect, I waited for 6 months before posting in this thread again. On May 2nd, 2011, the County Commissioners in Vermillion County amended their county ordinance to allow those with a LTCH to carry concealed inside the courthouse. As far...
I understand what you are saying but there are some logisitcal problems with waiting on a "NFA" trust to be tested by the appellate court and then going to the lawyer who drafted that trust.
First off most of the people who hire me to draft "NFA" trusts are younger than me. There is not...
Correct.
And as far as I can tell the ones done using Quicken that did not qualify were because the Settlor made himself both Trustee and Beneficiary. The real work is in creating the trust, the NFA stuff is easy.
T. Lex hit upon the important factor; trusts are meant to be private. If...
I would really support something like this. It would be a good reason to make the drive in and I have some old gear that I would be willing to trade or sell.
Develop a rhythm. Whether it is two shots or one or three, breath, hold, fire, breath, hold, fire. Work on just releasing the trigger enough for it to engage and then squeeze again.
If it helps, I had the same problem. One day I would shoot good sitting and suck at standing, another I...
For what it is worth I have to go over there once a week or so. When I go, I unload my gun and put the magazines in the glove box and lock it. Then I take the slide off the pistol and lock the slide and the receiver in my car gun vault. It stays that way until I am back across the state line...
Here is a link to the above cited case. You might want to read it carefully before you take your gun into Illinois:

Here is a link to the Illinois State Police Website with instructions on how to transport your weapons...
