    The reality is we're sunk on the magazine thing, like everything else in NJ. The supreme courts hasn't taken a 2A case in years and probably won't start unless Ginsberg dies and Trump puts 1 more solid 2A guy on the courts. And with the news outlets reporting every crime involving a gun like it's something that's never happened before public option is against us and getting worse. (not that it's been good in this state since the 60's)

    I liked Directv but I switched back to comcast because it saved me like $40 a month and didn't have to do a contract. Then I got fed up with comcast and cut the cord and use things like FireTV and Roku. If you absolutely must have cable tv, Directv is the way to go. 

     

    Just an FYI, after the first year if you call directv and tell them the bill is too much and to cancel they'll lower your price. Doesn't matter if you're still in contract or not. You'll need have some balls and go through with it if they don't. They WILL call you a day or two later with a better offer. I did that a few times before switching back to comcast and ultimately cutting the cord. I've been cable tv/directv bill free for 6 or 7 months, I don't miss it at all. 

     

    Every single show I like is either on Hulu the next day or available on their website (this is where the Roku or Amazon Firetv comes in). I couldn't care less about sports, I mean seriously you spend 1.5 hours to watch 11 minutes of football. Then another hour in commercials! (that's a real number btw, they did a study and found that after commercials, replays, and players milling around the field you watch 11 minutes of actual play lol )

    Looks like they MIGHT be able to help out with some of the missing firearms according to their website. They make no promises though.

    As much as I dislike Shore shot, the ranger officers have always been a pretty good bunch with helping newbies and watching people. And they have a policy already about not renting to individuals who come in alone who currently don't have a gun with them. Sounds like someone at the counter screwed up and didn't follow the policy.

    I have the sig 556 swat patrol, great rifle. I'll take it any day of the week over an AR or AK.VERY reliable and accurate. I've seen some AR's that are more accurate, but frankly I'm not looking to shoot anything 1000 yards out. Where would we even do that in NJ anyway? 

     

    The first gen 556 had some issues, and unfortunately some people still freak out about them like it still does. They were all solved a long time ago. It does have a bad habit of beating up brass though, can't argue that one. I don't reload so not an issue for me. You'll probably need to clean an AR 2 times before the 556 stops running though. If you get the patrol version the front weight isn't nearly as big an issue as the other models with all that plastic up front.

    The problem is 

     

    Even if it passes, it's harmless. If you don't want to end up in the little NJSP black book buy your ammo in PA. 

     

    I agree about more to come though. But we need to give Sweeney the boot in November, and as many others as we possibly can. There are some strategies to do so, and sending the right message to the hunters is a must. 

     

    I wouldn't say harmless. They'll push for it on out of state and internet sales in an attempt at a defacto sales ban for out of state purchases.

    Actually there are 4 copies to mail out, one to the state police as well :)

     

    I've sold a couple of handguns, it's really not that big of a deal. Most of the guys on this forum know what they need so they are prepared. DL, FID, P2P handgun, and you're all set. It's up to the BUYER to make sure they don't break the 30 day rule, as there is no way for the seller to verify before hand.

     

    As previously noted if you want to sell it out of state, go for it. ABSOLUTELY must got to an FFL in the buyers home state, and they'll need to send you a copy of their paper work before hand.

    The reason people complain about a lot of the ".22 conversions" is that they ALL specify .22 CCI auto mag, and most of the wing-nuts throw in the cheapest .22 LR they can find and it doesn't cycle properly because the ammunition is too under powered to cycle correctly. Any good quality 40 grain .22lr will probably do fine for most, but it needs to be decent quality not bargain basement stuff.

     

    With that said it's really hard to go wrong with a Sig p226 or p229  :)

    I'd say 1911, and of those 2 the ruger is an excellent choice. You should be able to get one under $700 on Gunbroker. Springfield's are another really good choice in that general price range. 

     

    The STI spartan is a decent gun, but I think the fit and finish is better on the sr1911 and springfield. The frame and slide for the Spartan are made by RIA and fitted with internals to meet STI's specs. (RIA makes a good entry level 1911, but it's not as good as the sr1911 or Springfield offerings)

     

    If you can spend a little more, the Sig 1911's are better than both in my opinion by a large margin. I see them on Gunbroker go for $700-800 depending on model. I bought my Sig 1911 traditional RTSS for $815 shipped.

    A word of warning, 1911's are addictive :)
