The indoor range/gun shop facility formerly known as Eagle Eye and then Hague's is under NEW OWNERSHIP & MANAGEMENT. It will be tentatively known as FREEDOM RANGE and is now owned and run by the same good folks as Freedom Ammo in Mantua NJ. Glenn Scheetz hopes to have his new facility open by the end of April-ish on a 7-days-a-week schedule. More details as we get closer to the Grand Opening date

Because the only thing they care about are votes and keeping their jobs. The positions are no longer filled with people who are doing a civil service for the public. The positions are now career paths and just like you and me they will do and say anything to keep their jobs. They suck.

Spent few hours cruising through the pine barrens today both Wharton and bass river forests.. That bridge is beginning of bass river, it starts out as swamp land runs through the woods out to Newgretna Viking yaghts and allens dock are both on this river, it runs into the Mullica river and into great bay.

He could also have LGS’s call directly to the federal line bypassing the state police and saving money as well... There’s that option as well. Or did I miss something?

Me too, as a side bar, I get non-stop solicitations from the NRA weekly looking for more money. Both by email and regular mail. This tells me that they really need more money. It's actually really annoying. All the crap they want you to buy, the constant offers to extend membership, even though mine isn't close to expiring, all the NRA branded bullshit to buy, offers by affiliates.. They should be putting more effort in obtaining NEW members, not hasstling existing ones...

And we have the NRA, GOA, SAF, NAGR, ANJRPC, CNJFO, NJ2AS. The money is there, but there is no will for the NRA to spend it in NJ. Lost cause yada yada yada. I know there are some things being done, but it's not enough. It's not enough money, time and most of all activism. We need to clog Trenton, grind it to a halt, have so many people show up that even the Antifa will stay home pissing their pants because they will be outnumbered and nobody will tolerate their BS.

The word you're looking for is MONEY.... The Mom's astroturf movement was funded by Soros and co.

It still is except in NJ they're called taxpayers.

They had balls and determination, they believed in what they were fighting for, had effective leadership that was able to rally support and mobilize. Their farmers and truck drivers issues were simple and singular, where as the 2A issue has been split off into tiny chunks that the state was able to take from us incrementally. The plan is to take so much from us, that by the time the straw that breaks the camel's back does it's job, NJ gun owners will be too politically impotent to do anything about it.

If noting else it will wake the Fudds up. They sat around on their lame asses for decades saying "gee, I only hunt wabbits with my shotgun, none of this concerns me" Well, guess what, now it concerns everyone!

EGGS! It's bread and milk. Nobody said anything about eggs. Eggs are new. Nobody tells my nothing. Now I gotta go back out. Damn.

They don't exist.

No, I submitted for permits prior to the change as well. They literally just updated the Bridgewater PD website a couple days ago with this information. I'm sure they'll accept apps at the local PDs for now but this can potentially streamline the process... or cause additional delays. Not sure. I have found that background checks do come back faster using this online system now compared to submitting the STS-33 and waiting for them to go through the process. I've had delays because I had just gotten married and they had do a domestic violence check with the family court...

Not sure statistically that may be a good argument. Would you buy a car with auto pilot that has a similar error rate as a drunk driving? And keep in mind, most accidents never make the news... Only when someone dies or is seriously injured. If you have to pay more money for an option just to cover the companies liability... It says a lot about it's effective quality... Our roads are not designed for auto pilot.. theyre trying to make a sqaure fit a circle shaped hole. These self driving cars can not rely on line of sight programming features. Sometimes traffic lights burn out a sign in covered or fadded... The lines in the road wear out, and in this case.. the sensor fails to pick up one of the largest vehicles you would find on the road.

Yep and how many IC engine cars were involved in deaths that day with a human driver?

No doubt there are many lefty Socialists that do in fact own guns......But they dare not advertise that fact publicly . They would be shunned by their fellow libtards in a heartbeat! Especially if they admitted to owning more than just a rifle or shotgun that belonged to their Grandfather. God forbid they admitted to owning a "Fully Semiautomatic Black Rifle" or two!

I have always asked this. Where is the activism from our gun owning compadres on the Left side of the aisle in NJ?

Which liberals are we talking about? The ones in politics, Hollywood, education and the media that are part of a decades long social engineering project to disarm Americans Nazi style? Or. are we talking about the liberal voters that have been brainwashed and turned into dependents who are loathe to bite the hand that feeds them? Are you suggesting the way to win this issue is to subvert a massive political machine, backed by money from the likes of Soros, that we must infiltrate the ranks of their loyal foot soldiers, and win them over (house by house) in a massive CIA style psy-ops campaign? If the issue was solely firearms, there might be a chance at effecting a marginal amount of influence with a charm campaign. But, it's not just firearms, is it? It's a massive anti tradition, anti straight white male, anti christian, anti pro life, anti bunch of stuff assault on traditional American values. The various liberal factions started out wanting some power and equality, they got that. Now they want total dominance, they want to take over and change the entire culture of America. Just look at how the Democrats are trying to push the Republican party off of the political map by awarding electoral votes to whomever has the popular vote. They are going against the very essence of the electoral college system to create a one party socialist state. Convincing the liberal hive to go against their queen, by letting a handful of drones pop off a few rounds, just ain't gonna happen. The scale of the fight we are facing is too massive. I don't mean to say that we gun owners should not educate liberals when we have an opportunity to do so. I am saying, to rely solely on that strategy is foolhardy. We are fighting for more than just 2A rights. 2A is just one front of a culture war with huge implications for America's political future. 2A is just one of many dominoes the socialists want to tip over. In fact, it's the one they want to topple the most because it stands in the way of them taking over America the way Hugo Chavez took over Venezuela. There is only one way we keep our 2A rights, and that is to stand up and fight. We can do other things to influence opinions, and it may be somewhat helpful, but that alone will not be effective enough to win.

I don't think it's ball size. I think it's leadership and organizational skills. Or the lack there of.

Hopefully, the 55,000 hunters in New Jersey (last year's rough total) will wake up. Hunter numbers have dropped in the state each year for the last eight years. Soon, these Fudd's won't be an entity to blame. The group that's silent and are suspiciously absent from the polls on election days are the "1 million gun owners" in New Jersey who purportedly has amassed a registration count of 8 million handguns. And if they all did show up at the polls for the Kim/Phil race, less than the million cast their vote for Kim, while Phil garnered significantly more, winning less towns overall but getting significantly more votes. BTW - 12 million+ hunters on a national level, yet there are supposedly 90 million gun owners in America. A small percentage hunt in this nation. Out of that 90 million, how many are NRA members? I see apathy and ambivalence, and it's everywhere.

Well, we cannot point out that much of the rest of the world, and in particular where pocket knives and guns are not legal, the people suffer at unjust governments, as facts do not matter. It doesn't matter when this puts a burden on the poor people that politicians pretend to protect. Laws are not meant to fix the problems, but only to regulate them. Tax-break for training to buy a safe, NO. ONLY zero tolerance and insane and unjust laws and penalties for breaking those laws. It is excessively difficult when the 'State doesn't allow any discussion of firearms, firearms safety, school safety, and on and on in its institutions and is and has been relying on brainwashing and conditioning. I don't believe that there are very few moderates. It is already polarized. The only group that matters is the naive and uneducated and the corrupt and disingenuous media has taken care of that with its operant conditioning and desensitization to liberty. When you go through life believing that you are not responsible for your own actions and when you have no control over your emotions, you see others as the same light as having little moral or sane compasses. Statists prey on that fact that all liberals hear voices in their throbbing heads!

But once again though we are forgetting that the vast majority of people in NJ believe guns should be far more regulated. Look, Slavery was once legal too.... Liberals view guns much like a few wanted to outlaw slavery, give women the right to vote, etc. Without looking at the facts... that guns are constitutional right and outlawing them is completely stupid... the vast majority of the world controls guns... and THAT is how guns are framed in people's minds... (until they shoot a gun and realize it is no different than a kitchen knife.) We simply need more people to be "okay" with guns and not make it the large and "safe" political issue for the majority to go after. I.e. more NJ residents believe in banning or control guns than kicking out illegals, or other political issues. And focusing on pandering to other gun owners does not expand the base of gun owners.... We should all be focused on getting more liberals and more importantly on the fence moderates, like my close friend... who generally did not see the need for guns... to trying them to now buying them up. lol. Instead what do we as a community do? Run off anyone who does not subscribe to the entire agenda.

All you can take away from that headline is that the cause of the crash is not yet known.

Ironically, I bet they'll be able to spell it correctly.

They have to be addressed/attacked BEFORE they get to that point. Yeah, something along those lines. Make it clear to the politicians that any attempt to subvert the 2A unconstitutionally with BS Bills will bury them is such piles of legal issues, they won't see the light of day. Right now, they have nothing to lose to throw out any BS 2A bill that they want. A major lobbying effort at the time the bill is introduced could be one answer. Basically, we need to intimidate and harass these politicians with ALL possibilities of legal retribution. It's the same thing the Democrats have been doing to Trump, his associates, Kavanaugh, Trump's family, etc. Maybe the fear of being economically buried in legal challenges might make them think twice. It's time to take a few pages out of the Dem/Socialist/Soros playbook. We have to stop playing nice and being the nice guys here. Remember, nice guys finish last. (Are you enjoying your 10 rounds mags and LACK of CCW?).

There’s a lot to be said about that. And that may have been. But could be now it sometimes feels it’s a strategy to suppress more than one race but the whole populous.

You'll never have Puddy...

So keep in mind, this was Obama's playbook with Coal... "We will make it too expensive for them to exist." Murphy was Obama's finance chief iirc and then got that cushy post in Germany? Making it too expensive and too time consuming to shoot and buy guns in NJ is the only way they can curb gun ownership. Think ammo tax, higher FFL fees. I am wondering if they will raise FFL fees too... if so, that may surely get rid of a lot of at home dealers.

Jus sayen

Courts take time... and I think the carry case MAY see its light of day in Supreme Court in the near future. Charging $300 is absolutely nuts though and IS a burden and would quickly be struck down as soon as it went to a court with a brain. Yes, it would be here in effect for some time, but would eventually be struck down.

I CAN'T see this one not going to the courts......

The fees are set by statute - in this case 2C:58-3,f, which means that new legislation would have to be passed first - not that that's a difficult thing to do given the Democratic majority in the legislature - but it will at least slow him down and prevent him from raising the fees by executive fiat. Adios, Pizza Bob

Poll tax, anyone?

Baltimore used to be a nice little place to visit. Now the only way to improve Baltimore would be to put a garrison back in Fort McHenry and start bombing it.

I swear some of you are like the MSM talking about Trump. The tech is new, so they start with great performance that no one that purchased was disappointed with, and now after gathering data for a year they know they can uncork the motors without worry about warranty issues, (something no one outside of Tesla knew was happening).

Sadly, I agree. As one example, take Operation Ceasefire (a program started by criminologist David Kennedy and first launched in Boston in the mid-90s)… the program features real formal communication between police, gangs, and community reps - they all sit down together to establish new "norms" of behavior... there are job training opportunities, efforts to pull kids out of gang life and... (importantly) serious punishment (like stiff sentences, not plea bargained joke sentences) for those who continue to engage in crime, etc. So, it's both a "carrot and stick" approach. It's been highly successful in many cities. The ONLY city I've heard where the program was quickly abandoned? You got it - Baltimore (the ironically named "Charm City"). I've always suspected the city's corruption was just too deep... and the powers that be LIKE it that way. Sad.

At least 4 of our Congressional Dims here in the PRNJ broke ranks with Pelosi and voted to allow FFLs to report prohibited illegal aliens to ICE. Now, if we can get the Federal govt to finally begin prosecuting those who are denied for things like lying on the 4473, we'd be in better shape.

I don't care what anyone says....... give me Christie back as Governor.

Just wait until Murphy passes the Mary Jane Bill and legalizes it here......this will draw flys here and create a Socialistic atmosphere here like you couldn't conceive then anything firearms in NJ will eventually be done away with ....omo.

Just remember the word incrementalism in years to come and years that have passed . Look at the big picture. Not the here and now.

You know they’re following, right? Just look at FL, ME, VA, and PA. Can’t run as it will eventually find you.

Moving to a free state just for gun rights results in the left winning.

that's a good sign! thanks now if clarence retires early, we can get another pro 2a and then of course ginsburg dies (God willing), we get 4 solid pro 2a

https://jalopnik.com/this-is-what-happens-when-you-put-300-000-miles-on-a-te-1798662230 the 100k miles and you need a new pack thing is a bit of a wive's tale. and it's dependent on how you treat your batteries as well. clearly a little user-education will be needed, but I suspect the average moron will quickly get into the groove of plugging in their car when they come home.
