    van hotels in New York

    A story from AP Mobile: Van, taxi latest NYC lodging option for bold, cheap visitors NEW YORK (AP) - There's no electricity, no running water, no bathroom.

    Concealed Carry Options

    The excess gunpowder burns in the air and makes a real neat fireball. *grin* Nothing wrong with hardball ammunition, and most factory ammunition has sufficient velocity to get the job done, although heavier clothing in wintertime is a possible obstacle to be considered. Ball ammunition might be...

    Concealed Carry Options

    What Lee said about revolvers. They're fine; less complicated, don't need disassembly for cleaning, easy to tell if it's loaded ( you can see the brass in the cylinder), don't have to worry about safety being engaged or if mag is fully seated. Just point and pull the trigger. Don't get in the...

    Concealed Carry Options

    Looks like I missed all the fun. A lot of police departments offer concealed carry classes, and will provide a weapon for you to shoot with. PDs have a large selection, usually, to choose from, and the range instructors generally know their stuff. A good opportunity to try several firearms in...

    Snooping drone shoot down.

    There was still no legal basis for damaging another's property. You might not like that fact, but it's a legal fact. I'll step out of the conversation, now, as it appears some people only want to hear what they already think lol.

    Snooping drone shoot down.

    In your opinion. *shrug* If you don't see the dangers of blasting drones out of the air in populated neighborhoods, then nothing I say will change your mind. As for my comments on 'peeping toms' - a term which is applied to voyeurs - look up the legal definition of voyeurism.  Even if the...

    Snooping drone shoot down.

    Lee There is no indication of voyeuristic intent on the drone owners. No peeping Tom.  There was no trespass - one does own the airspace above ones property. There may have been an invasion of privacy, since the man said he has a six foot privacy fence. It depends on whether or not the fence...

    Concealed Carry Options

    I think there's some confusion here about registration of firearms. Few states require registration, and most of those refer to assault style weapons only. Here's a summary listing states which require registration. http://smartgunlaws.org/registration-of-firearms-policy-summary/

    Concealed Carry Options

    You can buy one, but it must be shipped to a SD gun dealer, who will deliver it to you.  They generally charge a fee for doing so.

    Non-resident permits are becoming accepted less and less in other states.  Better double check them if you've had them for a while.

    Concealed Carry Options

    Looks have nothing to do with weapon selection.  Revolvers are uncomplicated - no safeties to deal with. Point and pull the trigger.   Charter arms makes a .44 Special that new runs to your price range.  It can fire five times before reloading - more than you'd need in a normal defense...

    IPad - Photogene4 Keep trying all the new and great apps, but none come close to photogene. If I need layers, I'll go to GIMP on my Linux box.

    Finally pulled the trigger on my solar system!

    Were it me, I'd 1) run the alternator wire, 2) get a larger storage battery and 3) probably go for the 300 watt panel, as well. The extra battery capacity will hold you over in stormy weather. All of our vehicles have charged the house battery off the alternator with no problem. An isolator to...

    You're going to need a 30 amp fuse between the you're going to need a 30 amp fuse between the panels and controller, and a 30 amp between the controller and battery. You'll need the cables from the controller to the batteries, as well as cable to connect the batteries to each other. You'll need...
