    This case was mentioned of Fox The Five. It was said that a ruling could come as early as tomorrow. 

    Anybody hear anything from other sources.

    Hoping for a good ruling.

    There was a rumor that we were going to get a ruling last Friday. Now all the cases from November except the one we're waiting for have been ruled on. Another rumor is that Judge Thomas is writing the decision.  All bets are on the end of June for the ruling.  The history has been that controversial rulings always come right before the summer break. That would be late June. I hope it does come earlier

    thing is.......especially with trumps appointments, we should be seeing a scotus following more closely to the constitution on this(yeayea i know, don't fooking laugh).

     but that aside, the scotus seems to like to rule on things like common practice, what the majority of the country does, etc. even going that way now, they can't(by their own standards) rule against the ny club in this. not with what? 20-something states with constitutional carry, and 42 total with nearly unrestricted carry? apparently it is VERY common practice to allownearly unrestricted ccw  throughout the country. this necessatites that they rule against ny state, and force the remaining states that are may(no) issue to become shall issue.

     

     yeayeayea.....don't laugh at me, lolol

    I always knew from the time I was 18 NJ firearm laws are bad.  It wasn't until I bought a house in a free state and visited a local gun range and than a Gun show that I realized  how bad they really are. After this ruling I believe NJ is going to change for the better, but we still won't be as free as other states. I'm leaving for good in 3 more years. Just in time for things to get better here.  Outside of the boardwalks I don't think I'm going to miss NJ.

    I'm sure the last thing any of us want is to get jammed up with a firearms violation in NJ.  Not getting a building permit or a jab is not the same. If you get caught without a permit working on your home you don't lose you right in every other state to ever get a permit again. IMO there's nothing wrong with going to an expert before moving forward especially with something you can forever lose your right to exercise.   I know one thing for sure.  NJ would like nothing better than to make us all criminals.

    To be on the safe side  I would use an FFL for anything having to do with firearms in NJ.  My daughter just got hired down here in Florida. She's making the move down next week. I'm so happy she's getting out of the People's Republic of NJ.  My wife and I still have 5 more years until we can move down year round. Yesterday I walked into a gun shop down here just to look around and saw a brand new Glock P80 in the case. 20 minutes later I walked out with it.  It was so easy.  Nothing like the B/S back home.

    Oddly enough, I recall a no guns allowed sign at the door last time I was there, and the LGS would have a 'skip the gun show' sale on that weekend beating prices at the show,  kinda curious to powder / primer availability and cost   since COVID they have been scarce and priced 2.5x over norms.  I'll be at the CCSO range Sat, they supply the targets and range time is free, kinda hard to beat, other then shooting on your own property.

     

     

    I brought in a barrel without a problem, but there is a no gun policy. If your bringing in a long gun it has to be unloaded, bolt out  and a zip tie on it. I have an old AP-74 Jagger I bought when I was 18 up in Wayne NJ. The plastic flash hider was broken years ago.  I brought the barrel in and found one for it at the 2nd table I stooped at.  I got 4 offers for the barrel in 10 min's from people just walking up to me.  I brought the barrel back to my car and went back to the show.  There was also I guy selling night sights at a table. If you brought your slide in he put them in while you waited. They had ammo there.  Prices weren't too bad. about 4 or 5 tables selling.  Its nice to go and see a gun show after living in NJ.

    I'm going to be staying in Cape Coral so I'll have to check out that shop. My brother in law also mentioned going to the Cecil M Webb shooting range. Are you familiar with it.

    I've  never been to that range. I've Only been down there for two winters. Cape Coral is divided up in 4 zones. I'm up in the NW Cape. We bought the lot back in 2010.  Last I looked there were 167,000 people living in the Cape but you would never know it because of how large the city is. Where I'm at up in the NW there are so many empty waterfront lots just waiting to be sold and built on.  I wish I was going down there too.

    I have my appointment but had to go to the local Dept. Of Agriculture office in North Port. None of the tax assessors offices in the area are accepting non resident applications. I had to take appointments on the day I'm leaving because everything else was booked and I'm not going for a few months.

    North Port is about 50 mi north of where I'm at in Cape Coral. Its a quiet area. Not like Miami. Your going to find it so different going there than your local police dept in NJ.  if you have time stop in some local gun stores.  Even with low stock you'll still be surprised.  If your staying south of North Port checkout  Shoot Center in Cape Coral. Its worth the trip,  https://www.shootcenter.com/

    I did the process online. I went to gun's for hire for the required training, which is mandatory, and they filled all the paperwork for me. I sent it by mail and 90 days later got my permit. Easy Peasy!

    Beats going somewhere in person to get it done in my book.

    Oh no. you missed a great opportunity to get down to Florida for a day or two and meet some very nice people. You'd be shocked how different gun owners are treated in Florida VS NJ.  I try to take advantage of EVERY reason to get down to Florida or just out of NJ for that fact. LOL

    No Problem. It really is a good idea to go in person.  They do everything right there. Picture, electronic prints, and application.  They send it right out.  Its like one stop shopping.   Florida is so different from NJ. The state workers are very helpful and nice. My last renewal the women asked me way I wasn't a Florida resident yet. The're very happy to see their state grow.

    how far in advance did you make the appointment?

     

     

    I think it was about two weeks before I took the class At Shoot Streight in Ft. Myers. I started calling around for an appointment.  They had an appointment available in Miami the morning after I took the class.  Checkout this group. Lots of info there for Florida carry.  https://www.floridaconcealedcarry.com/forums/

    I'm going to be in FL in June and plan on applying for my CWFL while there. Since the age of covid they are only doing them by appointment.

    Does anyone have any idea what the lead time is for an appointment or a FL gun forum that might have members who would.

    I've already checked for locations and the closest place to my brother in laws house is not doing non resident permits at this time. He's in Cape Coral. I did find a few other locations within an hours drive of there that are issuing non resident permits just wondering if anyone had any experience getting an appointment.

    They've always been by appointment  Check the surrounding area. I'm in Lee county. I have two offices close by.  The first time I applied  we didn't have the house yet.The only appointment that worked for me was in the Miami office.  It was a bit of a drive but worth it.

    I find the best way to apply and renew is to make an appointment at a Licensing center. They can do everything there while you wait. Fingerprints, and application.  I have a bad scar and they usually have to do my electronic prints twice.  The machine tells them right than and there if its a good print or not.  Before I got a winter home in Florida I took the class here and than made the appointment at the Licensing center. I got my License in the mail 3 weeks later. When I renewed I went back to the Licensing center and the women told me to become a Florida resident and she would than be able to give me my renewal right there on the spot.  I've never waited more than 3 weeks for my renewal to come in the mail.  I have 5 years left on my current CWFL. My next renewal I will be a Florida resident.  As others have said just be careful.  Your Florida CWFL isn't valid in some states if your not a Florida resident. https://www.fdacs.gov/Consumer-Resources/Concealed-Weapon-License/Concealed-Weapon-License-Reciprocity

    Load shedding is all automatic. Its designed really to manage startup loads. Once a central A/C is up and running it will allow another to start.  it will also dropout  a load if your generator is close to max output.  Another option you can do is a propane tank. I put in a 1000 gallon tank at my house in Florida.  It feeds a Kohler 30RCL. generator.
