That's a valuable slide. Thanks for sharing

See paragraph 2 regarding consumption of alcohol

I’m going to guess, nostalgia. He’s looking for HIS exact old gun, not a similar one.

I clean after each shooting session. I enjoy cleaning the guns. And taking them apart.

This is New Jersey government you are talking about. There has never been any joined-up-thinking here. The process says check the mental health records going back 10 years for an initial application, and renewals are to be treated just like initial applications. It doesn't matter to them that you lived in NY 8-10 years ago and they got those records before. They have to get them again - you know, just in case 8-10 year old history changed since they last got a copy of those records. It required dragging them kicking and screaming to accept that being fingerprinted every time you applied for a PCH was pointless. You know, fingerprints that they use to identify you because everybody's are unique and unchanging have to be taken again, just in case they changed.

i clean when i feel a change in the way they're acting. you can feel the slide being a little slower.....or not as smooth.

I've always felt that gun ranges that offer storage should also offer customers a place where people can sit and clean their guns. After all, some people park their guns in storage lockers permanently, and everyone who does that would have the same exact dilemma you describe.
