Got the itch recently, looking for a lever gun - Marlin 1894; Henry, etc. Preference is smaller calibers .357, .44, etc Let me know what you have. Local to central/north NJ. Thanks!

Sunday May 5th 2024 Don't get caught with your pants down. Practice now. Shooting commences at 0900 and keeps going until we get bored, run out of ammo, or hear mom calling us home. Shoots go until at least 1300, leaving plenty of time for everyone to stop in at any time and join the party. As always, these clay shoots are informal gatherings, just plain good fun to promote shooting sports and encourage training. Please feel free to bring friends and family. Shooters of all experience are welcome, if you have never shot clays before, or want some tips on improving your skills, this is your chance to dust off that shotgun sitting in a dark corner of your closet and gain some needed experience. What you will need. Bring your shotgun(s), as much #7.5 or #8 lead target/field loads as you want to shoot, and depending on how much you want to shoot, a carton of clay pigeons would be great. Targets (ie. clay pigeons) are available at Solomon's Shooter Supply in Farmingdale. Some Walmarts carry targets. Sadly, Shooters, as we knew it, is closed and has become Shooters Hardware, relocated to 218 Main St, West Creek, NJ, 08092. Don't forget eyes and ears. Also recommended is a chair, sun screen, insect repellent, and something to drink. I will be bringing an automatic trap machine, if you have a thrower, please bring it as a backup or second station. If you don't have a shotgun and just want to see what clay shoot'n is all about, a loaner shotgun will be available. For those who plan on shooting rifles, you must have a firearms hunting license, or be on the rifle range with someone that has a license. In addition to the traditional rimfire and muzzle loaders, Stafford now allows center-fire up to .30 caliber. Basic Checklist Shotgun and/or rifle Ammo Firearm hunting license, if you have one (not mandatory, just helpful) Eye and ear protection (mandatory) Clay targets (optional but recommended for volume shooters) Shell pouch (optional) Folding chair (optional) Hydration County Rd 539, Barnegat, NJ 08005, USA , Little Egg Harbor Township.

Well here's a related fun fact: Americans Own 700 Million+ Mags With Greater Than 10-Round Capacity (breitbart.com)

Keep.in mind expiration dates on canned food are really for best quality. You can eat it after the expiration date (usually 3-4 years after manufacture date). It's not going to kill you. May not taste as good. When I was in Vietnam we'd get C rations from WW2. How do I know they were from WW2? Got Lucky Strike cigarettes in a green pack. Lucky Strike went to a white pack in 1942 to save green dye for the war effort. These c rations were canned with 1940s technology. Kept me fed and over 50 years later I'm alive.

Shop Rite has Campbell's Chunky on sale for $1ea (6 for $6 with digital coupon, limit 6 cans at this price), and after the first 6 cans they are $2ea (Normally $3.49ea).

Finders keepers…

One of the very very very very few times where the famous statement made by most New Jersey officials can actually apply: "We need to get guns off the streets."

"State said LCM's are a risk to mass shootings and they need to be banned to allow people to escape at the reload." Wow, the argument for restricting magazine capacity is so that in a mass shooting, people have time to get to safety during the reload. This clearly shows their massive ignorance or blatant lies. A mass shooting is typically planned in advance and the shooter will have many magazines on them, strategically placed. Reloads typically take less than 4 seconds and can take less than 2 with a little practice. This is not enough time for an unarmed victim to realistically realize the shooter is actually reloading and flee and get to a safe location in time. If that were actually the case, all mass shootings would be limited to 10 people as after the 10th round, everyone else could flee to safety during the reload. Clearly this is not the case. Further, mass shooters also do not care about laws since they aren't planning on being around after the incident (suicide by police) to face any consequences of using "illegal large capacity magazines", so banning them in one state does not prevent a mass shooter from using so called "LCMs" in a mass shooting. Banning LCM's would have very little effect on mass shootings. On the other hand limiting the magazine round count significantly impacts a weapon's usefulness in a home defense situation for the law abiding citizen. Break ins are rarely perpetrated by just one person these days, but instead by multiple thugs. Again criminals do not obey laws, so they could have illegal firearms with high capacity magazines. During a break in, the home owner rarely has time to load up and secure multiple magazines on their person in a high stress and quickly evolving situation, especially if this is likely occurring at night and you are in your pajamas or worse. You would be lucky to be able to grab your weapon with one mag already in it, and maybe one mag more. While a mag change may not be enough time for an unarmed victim to safely flee, a mag change by a home owner with a low capacity magazine could give an armed criminal the time to safely return fire and kill the home owner. The same could be said in a CCW self defense situation. Not many CCW's carry more than 2 magazines. In a shootout if the law abiding citizen with a low capacity magazine has to stop to reload or runs out, that could provide the criminal with illegal HCM's to safely shoot and kill the law abiding citizen.

Typical state fear-mongering arguments. Them pushing that numbers don’t equate to common use is nonsensical. Judge asking about ruling for the standard capacity mag ban but against AR (features) is concerning. Smacks of interest balancing which is explicitly forbidden under Bruen.

Get some cleaning mats. I clean them at my kitchen island. Nothing gets on the counter and I can take my time. Look up Tek Mats

Fun fact. Registered R's currently outnumber the D's by almost a million in FL. Considering R's surpassed D's only a few yrs ago I'd say that's a huge swing and this state is gtg for a while. Just not with realestate....

If you were running a commercial range, would like the risk of having to call "clean-up on lane 3" when someone knocks their bottle of solvent over? They would have to shut down the entire line if any of it spilled forward.

This is going in my shop.

Just a heads-up for anyone who might also be in this situation. I joined USLS mid-April of 2022. Some time after renewing for 2023, I changed email providers, and dutifully reflected my new address on my account page. So, I have been anticipating renewal alerts at my new address, but those never arrived. I logged in to my account the other day, and was surprised to see that my subscription expired that same day. I went to my account main information page, confimed that my email address was correct, then went to the billing page, which showed my previous two payments, but which did not give me any apparent way to pay up for the new year. I requested support using the Customer Service form on the web site, but received no reply. Today I called their support number. Apparently changing the email address from my view of my account page did nothing to change the address that they use internally for billing purposes, including expiration notifications. Maybe they also use that address for replies to the support form, even if a different email address is entered there. Also, my account was set up to auto-renew and charge my credit card without my intervention, but that setting did not show on my account page in any obvious way. So, if you have USLS and have changed your email address since you last renewed, you might want to give them a call to ensure that they send renewal information to your correct address. The prospect of having legal coverage lapse while carrying in NJ was, for me, a less that confidence inspiring experience. I will note that the telephone-based customer service was excellent.

Bump, new prices! Wilson EDC X9, 4 Magazines, Including New Crossbreed IWB Holster. $2400 OBO Wilson P99c, 4 Magazines. $550 OBO

https://store.stevesgunz.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=10 It has been installed now for 5 months, shoot that rifle pretty much every weekend, hasn’t loosened up yet, works with the factory front sight. Polished up the internals, a lot of tooling marks left behind, a light coat of grease and she is sweet. Great deal you found, bought mine at the oaks gun show at the end of the last day and cost was something like $560 out the door. I bought the blued version, your deal was even better.

Mine were locked as well..........For about 5 minutes!

The versions I used were downloaded from some popular ham website. I was able to program five radios with four labeled channels. My radios are capable of advanced settings, but I like to keep it simple bcuz I'm stoopid.

Any doubts about canned goods? Worried about strontium contamination? Get a TZ-2000 food safety tester.

And I thank God that you are alive and well my friend! I respect you and always look forward to your guidance more than you can possibly know!

So stupid...

Carry your mag in a mag pouch.

Here's the Hornaday Critical Defense rounds I've been cycling in and out of of my G26 and G19 mags for home and PTC carry for the last ~4 years. I unload them from the mag in so I can load FMJ's for range sessions, usually onto my bed comforter, and then put them in a dish on the dresser. They've fallen on the floor and rolled into the under bed dust bunnies a bunch of times. I've carried them loaded in a mag in my pocket a bunch of times. I carry with a round in the chamber, so they've all been chambered a bunch of times. Never an issue. I don't think the rubber/polymer/whatever tip actually contacts the feed ramp, but maybe I'll do a close up video of a slow chambering to check. The tips definitely collected carbon residue, but they're not looking like they're packed with feeding or chambering inhibiting detritus to my eyes. I probably should fire these off my next range trip and cycle new ones in.

I have a Vaultek Lifepod 2.0 in both of my vehicles. Use it for more than the gun. Store wallet and other stuff. A little pricey but hides easily and comes with cable.

Do you test every primer before seating it too?

I have a few boxes of the factory ammo. That is what I am carrying. I bought these to duplicate the factory load so I can use them for practice. Practice with what you carry right? This way is WAY cheaper than a dollar a shot or so. Instead of shooting FMJ I can shoot these for the same price or less.

Was told when I started carrying only carry factory loads. While not illegal to carry hand loads it opens up alot more questions that you will need to defend in court God forbid you need to use your firearm in defence.

Agree with the other two replies. In general, semi-auto rifles and shotguns are highly restricted in terms of functional enhancements, while bolt-action or pump-fed long guns have a great deal more latitude. Doesn't make any real sense, but if you are moving here, you should start getting used to that (not exclusive to firearms regs, either :-/

That was more than 18 months ago. He ordered "discovery". Discovery of what? Heller laid out the text, history & tradition requirement. Nj had already had ample opportunity to show the historical support for this if it ever existed. History from the time of the founding cannot be created anew in the last 18 months. I am sick and tired of the so-called justice system pretending that they know best.

JohnnyB, did you buy a programming cable? If not, get one. It’ll make this so much easier. Next, I’ll encourage you to get your ham radio license. You can study for a few hours on hamexam.org and you’ll pass. It’ll cost you $35 I think but it’s worth it.
