  1. Damnit.. like everything, this sounds iffy.
  2. Quick question... I have a handgun p2p to burn. My driver's license expired. Can i use a passport as an ID for the purchase? Will that be accepted? Thanks, BM
  3. Just a quick update... I absolutely love my new pistol (Sig p229). This thing is awesome. As far as I can tell, it is dead accurate, and i haven't had a single problem after going through my first hundred or so rounds. I highly suggest anybody considering a Sig Sauer, particularly the Sig P229, to go ahead and make the purchase. Bite the bullet (no pun intended), and pull the trigger on the sale (no pun intended) and buy one, because thing is a blast! (No pun intended) =)
  4. I called the store last night and they said that my NICS had just cleared... 14 days.
  5. So, what does everybody feel the magic number is these days? 20 days? It seemed like it used to be 11. Perhaps its been bumped up a week or so?
  6. I don't get it.. It seems like this is just getting worse...Today is exactly two weeks for me (14 days)... no call yet.
  7. This is just my first handgun, i'm well aware of the joke that is New Jersey's gun laws lol.. Update... no call today. Tomorrow is Sunday. So, i guess i'll be crossing my fingers on day 14 (Monday)...
  8. Hi Everybody, So, I purchased a brand spanking new P229 on Monday, the 15th of April. I am extremely excited, as i'm sure you all can understand. This will be my first handgun. In any event, I too, am now one of those waiting on a miserable NICS check. I was wondering when those of you got the call from your LGS that the NICS was cleared. Was it during the morning, afternoon, or at night? Also, does anybody know if they are also sending back approvals during the weekends? I'd just really love to get a call tomorrow on my day off (Saturday), and was wondering if that was a possibility! Let me know. Thanks in advance for any replies, Michael
  9. Omg.. wait a second.. the prices on here are like 1.20 a round.. Cheaper than dirt my ***!!!!
  10. Guys, Thanks so much for all the responses. And...*Drumroll*...the winner is: Sig P229.. I picked her up and could not put her down. She just feels so nice. Now, what type of ammo do you guys like shooting for target? I know the choices are very very limited. For example, take a look below and let me know what you would choose out of what is ACTUALLY AVAILABLE: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/ItemListing.aspx?catid=736
  11. Thanks GD! I've had my FID for quite some time now, so I've been a gun-owner for a long time. However, a new purchase never loses it's excitement factor for me!
  12. I picked my permits up today. Very excited.. Going to the LGS today and going to be using the first of my permits.
  13. Haha stingy.. or smart? Only one left, and there are two of us Axeman!!
  14. Haha! I wish i could my friend, but i've called a bunch of stores and have found one Gen3 Glock 19 available. I had them put it aside with my name on it until i get out of work at 6:00 pm. Last Friday when i called, a couple of stores had Gen4's and gen3's. They must have sold them over the weekend because at this point in time, the only one i could find was the single Glock 19 (gen 3) left.
  15. Okay, so.. it sounds like you guys wouldnt haven any reservations about buying a gen 3 in 2013? I'm just nervous that in say, two years, if i need to get the thing fixed, it will be a pain the behind. Are those concerns silly?

    Glock Gen 3

    Hi Everybody, I've been doing some shopping for a Glock 19, as I now have a couple permits in hand. In any event, it looks like most stores of trying to get their hands on BOTH gen 3 and gen 4 of the G19. I had it in my head that i was going to be picking up a g19 gen 4, but am now being told by a couple of the stores that i was considering going to tonight, that all they have left are the gen 3's. Here are my questions: Would anyone have any reservations about getting a gen3 instead of the newer gen 4? If in fact i pick up a gen3, will aftermarket parts be available in one, two, or three years? (I know there aren't TOO many differences, but if i'm not mistaken, the gen 4 has two springs instead of one? I just want to be sure that i won't be purchasing something that i will regret a year or two down the line) If you had it your way, which would you get? Thanks, BM
  17. So, looks like most went with the Glock and Beretta... A coupe M&P's in there too.. Is the Sig price just turning people off? Also, as for the CZ.. can't find them anywhere but Gunbroker, and would rather just be able to walk to the Local Shop tomorrow and make my purchase. I think i'm leaning Glock.. but I guess i'll have to wait tomorrow til i tell you guys what i go with. It might really end up with what's actually available.. due to the current climate in the gun world and everybody buying anything they can get their hands on...
  18. What time does he close? Trying to purchase something tomorrow. I get out of work at 6 pm.

    Your First 9

    What did you pick and why? I'm going to be purchasing my first 9 mm tomorrow and would like to know what decisions others have made, and why. I'm currently torn between the Glock 19, Sig p226 or p229, or the Beretta 92fs.
  20. My Mossberg has more rounds through it than any other gun i own. It hasn't ever malfunctioned. It's a great gun.
  21. My permits are in! I have to wait til Monday to pick them up though.. But, needless to say, I'm a happy man. Last name starts with "B".
  22. Thanks 410.. Anyone who doesn't think that this is all on purpose, is insane. Think about it. Even if i am lucky enough to get my permits in by the end of this week, that will have been very close to 7 months of waiting. NOw, on top of that, when i go to purchase a gun, I'm going to have to wait for NICS (since they are no longer 10 mintues) check for another week and a half to two weeks.. I mean.. C'mon!!!!
  23. I have not received my permit. Yesterday, my Local PD confirmed that the mental health check was in. (apparently the last piece to the puzzle). He then went on to say that he had to do "have the chief sign it" which would "likely" be done by the "end of the week". lol.. it's like pulling teeth. By the way, i applied for these two PP's in September.
  24. Can anybody shed some light on this nonsense? http://www.courierpostonline.com/article/20130401/NEWS02/304010016/Mental-health-records-not-part-gun-checks-New-Jersey I'm confused. Do they want "Instant" mental health background checks? Are they saying that the mental background check we go through for each pistol is not enough? WTH?
