Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge The Serpa recalled one? LOL That was so bad they took them all back from NYPD who had them. Then there's plaxico. Safety didn't help him. LOL Then again the gun was illegally possessed in NYC and NJ making him an instant felon. Or...

Re: My ten year old shooting run-n-gun. That's awesome. Many years ago we here in the tristate used to be able to teach kids like this. Heck that's how I learned. Now you have to be 21 and LICENSED just to even touch a pistol in NY State. Ever seen McKenzie? Pretty cool...

Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge That's equally a valid point. Maintenance is part of upkeep. If you don't maintain the safety of anything in a proper manner it will fail. If you don't get your emergency brake cable tightened and tested, one day your car is going to...

Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge Geez... I didn't mean to start a fight here. That's not my intention I'm not a troll... Lets get the issues separated here. 1. Who's really at fault of the son's death (even if it be accidental): IMO Mother. Main reason being she's...

Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge @Graham, Hmm interesting... Given that the 700 has seen a lot of combat in Iraq, I wonder if any of our boys here have experienced this with sand getting in there and affecting the connector?

Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge Story gets deeper: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2001/07/17/eveningnews/main301947.shtml Here's the main issue. Mother was handling the firearm, and was turning the safety off while her son was in front of the rifle. (seriously WHY?)...

Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge Did some more googling on this... they're blaming the safety. Here's the memo that's been submitted as evidence in the Texas case: http://www.drinnonlaw.com/docs/Remington-79-80-Memo.pdf Found it via this filing...

Re: CNBC to expose Remington on 700 phantom discharge my point exactly! Next thing they'll do is make mandatory 12 lb triggers... *rolleyes*

I was watching CNBC in the office and saw them briefly mention this, so I googled and saw this: http://www.cnbc.com/id/39383236/CNBC_S_R..._20th_at_9PM_ET Essentially looks like they did an investigation on the 700's and something about phantom discharge of the rifle including one gunowner and...

Re: Any Orange County, NY Members Here? I'm letting my Cherry Ridge membership lapse, as I joined Ft. Dix, NJ instead

Re: Any Southern NY or TriState Area ppl here? I live in Manhattan, along with a few other guys on some of these gun forums (actually we all first met at the Westside Gun Range on 20th street). We go to Ft. Dix in NJ to shoot 200 yard with our .308's. Staten Island for trap. I have land in...

Re: Any Orange County, NY Members Here? Not quite Orange, but I live in NYC and my family has land in Sullivan county (Monticello). Actually headed up there tomorrow to survey the land and pick up my hunting license before the hunting season starts.

Re: So...what's ur occupation? Management consulting consultant (we're very busy this year fixing all these crappy companies!)

Re: Pennsylvania (PA) Hog/Feral Pig Hunting? Exactly. I'd rather hunt my prey fairly. Shooting something in a pen is not fun, nor cool. Plus its the wild feral hogs that are deemed a problem and declared vermin in most states, so I'm actually helping the environment.

Re: Pennsylvania (PA) Hog/Feral Pig Hunting? Ah so it really is like killing rats since they're declared vermin.

Re: Pennsylvania (PA) Hog/Feral Pig Hunting? This is good info. Ghogs, sorry I wasn't ranting at you, just at that specific place. Tomcat, yes please PM me the info, or post here as I'm sure others would be interested esp. if they search. Brokes, I'll keep you in mind. Plus I have a...

Re: Pennsylvania (PA) Hog/Feral Pig Hunting? LOL that's the place that my buddies got scammed to go. You basically shoot the animal in a pen. Not cool.

Re: spotting scope Did a search and found the exact model: Konus 7120 Konuspot 20-60x80mm Spotting Scope It's $194.33 on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DX7Q8W EDIT: here's the review from Jim Ownens: http://www.jarheadtop.com/KONUS.htm

Anyone know of a good place in PA that has guided hog hunts that are decent? I would like to learn how to clean these piggies too. (originally I was planning to go to Texas, but I'm short on funds, but I hear PA has good hog hunts) I'd like to stay away from the canned hog hunt where you...
