2nd interview next Wednesday morning.

Something close to home?

Good luck Snap... hope your feeling better too....

On another note..... I did get to run through a lot of different manufacturers of mags for the AR's yesterday and it is official... The 3rd gen PMAGS work in everything I have soooooo I'm looking for a deal on them, any of you guys know of any deals going on for them ?

What are your feelings on the lancer AR magazines?

GB:Are the m3 mags the 3 gen?

MAGPUL PMAG M3 5.56 30 Round Black

$11 a mag.

 

[gunbunnies]

two of my M4's ran them just fine but my A1, A2 and two other M4's, plus my little NFA EXTAR pistol wouldn't run them. I had great expectations for the Lancers as I had found a great price on them and they come in clear which is nice for round count. I've noticed that if the feed ramps aren't M4 and exactly right on then you require to have that u or v dip in the front of the mag feed area to get it to run 100%. The PMAGS have that, some of the military contract aluminum mags have a squared off front but it is just low enough in the front that you can see the entire top round above that feed shelf and half of the next round under it. This leads to better function in everything you run it in... Well that is my .02 cents worth...

PS: We ran the lancer in a Tavor it ran just fine... The surefire 60 round mag ran just fine in it too...

What are your feelings on the lancer AR magazines?

Best magazines made to date.

I have no problems running them in any of my guns.

The problem is the price. Pmags are cheaper and its hard to complain about them. So the Lancer, while I love them, its hard to justify the cost.

I picked up two of them for $13.00 each, as they were off color in a tan.

Walking distance.

Thanks, GB. I missed this post the first time around. Feeling about 60%. Still weak and queasy, but better than the past few days. How are you feeling now?

 

[chef larry]

Walking distance.

A savings with the price of gas.

 

[actaeon277]

Walked in to give blood, and what do I see?

Note, that is the new Illinois no-gun sign.

 

[Snapdragon]

Illinois anti-carry code covers hospitals and hospital affiliates, apparently.

(430 ILCS 66/65) Sec. 65. Prohibited areas. (a) A licensee under this Act shall not knowingly carry a firearm on or into: (1) Any building, real property, and parking area

under the control of a public or private elementary or secondary school.

under the control of a pre-school or child care facility, including any room or portion of a building under the control of a pre-school or child care facility. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the operator of a child care facility in a family home from owning or possessing a firearm in the home or license under this Act, if no child under child care at the home is present in the home or the firearm in the home is stored in a locked container when a child under child care at the home is present in the home.

(3) Any building, parking area, or portion of a

building under the control of an officer of the executive or legislative branch of government, provided that nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit a licensee from carrying a concealed firearm onto the real property, bikeway, or trail in a park regulated by the Department of Natural Resources or any other designated public hunting area or building where firearm possession is permitted as established by the Department of Natural Resources under Section 1.8 of the Wildlife Code.

I am guessing he was on this side of the border.

And where was this posted?

If you go to Jared Gallery of Jewelry in Hobart/Merrillville they posted a sign that quotes the OHIO code!

 

[Snapdragon]

Heh... got a good laugh from this. Someone on the NWI buy-sell Facebook classifieds page posted this:

need a car for cheap i have a 380 i will trade for something that runs

 

[Ericpwp]

Don't forget:

(b) Notwithstanding subsections (a), (a-5), and (a-10) of this Section except under paragraph (22) or (23) of subsection (a), any licensee prohibited from carrying a concealed firearm into the parking area of a prohibited location specified in subsection (a), (a-5), or (a-10) of this Section shall be permitted to carry a concealed firearm on or about his or her person within a vehicle into the parking area and may store a firearm or ammunition concealed in a case within a locked vehicle or locked container out of plain view within the vehicle in the parking area. A licensee may carry a concealed firearm in the immediate area surrounding his or her vehicle within a prohibited parking lot area only for the limited purpose of storing or retrieving a firearm within the vehicle's trunk, provided the licensee ensures the concealed firearm is unloaded prior to exiting the vehicle. For purposes of this subsection, "case" includes a glove compartment or console that completely encloses the concealed firearm or ammunition, the trunk of the vehicle, or a firearm carrying box, shipping box, or other container.

So, you can't, but you can.

 

[actaeon277]

First, I am not in Illinois.
Second I don't think a building where they just stick a needle in me meets those criteria.

After donating for 30 years, with a gun, they might have just lost my business.

I am at the red cross building crossing of I-65 and US 30.

There is no metal detector and security guard to ensure my safety.
