Garands love grease. AR’s like to run “wet”.

Wow. It’s bad enough they don’t want you to have the right to self defense. Now, they don’t even want you to have insurance and legal protection. https://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2018/08/murphy_investigating_nra-sponsored_firearm_insuran.html Murphy investigating NRA-branded firearm insurance that critics call 'murder' coverage Updated 8:06 PM; Posted 8:03 PM New Jersey is investigating a National Rifle Association-branded firearms insurance product sold in the state, which gun control advocates have derisively called "murder insurance," the state Department of Banking and Insurance announced Tuesday night. Insurance regulators are examining the business practices of Lockton Affinity, LLC of Kansas "for potential violations related to the marketing and sale of NRA-sponsored insurance under the Carry Guard Program, Banking and Insurance Commissioner Marlene Caride said in a statement. The NRA is not licensed to sell insurance in New Jersey, Caride's statement said. A spokesman for Lockton could not be reached for comment. The department is also examining Chicago-based Illinois Union, a member of the Chubb group, "for potential violations in its role as the underwriter of the insurance product," Caride's statement said. In May, New York fined Lockton $7 million for unlawfully selling the liability coverage to 680 gun owners facing criminal charges involving their guns, according to a Bloomberg report. On Aug. 6, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo wrote a letter to other governors alerting them to the insurance product and offering assistance on how to investigate the companies involved. https://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2018/08/murphy_investigating_nra-sponsored_firearm_insuran.html

He didn’t want to scuff up the barrel of his $15K Krieghoff or Perazzi shotty...

This is why I black out serial numbers on the photos of my guns

I’m going to comply ... ... by moving to Florida

Kennedy or Crown FTW

I’ve used www.hondaautomotiveparts.com (Majestic Honda of RI) for years. Also cross check with eBay.

I always keep a Honda Accord as a beater. Current one has 238K trouble free miles. Previous one had 225K and lasted 24 years. It helps to be able to do your own maintenance and keep to the same platform (like guns). Also helps that all of the issues and fixes for the car are known, documented and available on YouTube or forums. It’s also peace of mind. Hitting a massive pothole, getting dinged by a shopping cart, scratched from road debris. No problem. Otherwise you can get neurotic on your daily commute in a nice car.

Thanks guys.

Hi, I’ve been out of the loop since the laws were finalized and signed by Gov Jackass. What’s the latest process on private transfer of firearms between NJ residents with FID/P2P/NJ DL? Does it need to go through an FFL now? Obviously, transfer of 10+ round mags is verboten now. Thanks.

I’m reminded of this Seinfeld episode...

Well, at the very least, an FFL03 will qualify you for the Brownell’s trade discount program which can be quite good.

Ruger AC-556 (stainless of course)

Congrats Howard. Yeah, Florida drivers suck. It’s way worse than in NJ even in parking lots of Publix or Walmart. Just be super vigilante and don’t let road rage get the best of you. I’ve learned you gotta be a super defensive driver down here and keep calm in the face of countless a$$holes on the road.

Some suggestions: Purge now. Get down to the essentials whether it's guns, cookware, tools or whatever. You'll be happier in the end. If you're going to shoot on your property, look for a property that backs into a mountain, preserve, or something. Nothing like a natural backstop. Don't be one of those guys... Account for proximity to hospitals, doctors, the closest Waffle House, etc. Scan the area for proximity to trailer parks. There's a reason why the nicer communities in the South tend to be gated. The meth epidemic in the South is no joke. My ex-FIL built his dream log cabin in Spencer, TN. The only store in town was a Dollar General. For any kind of chain restaurant meal or Wal-Mart/Home Depot run, he had to drive 30-40 miles or about an hour to get that. There were a couple trailer parks nearby. The cabin was broken into during construction and they stole all his tools. They tried a B&E through the front door when he was home on a Saturday night watching TV. He scared them off with a couple .357 shots fired into the air out of a second floor window. He ended up moving to St. John's County, FL in a community with HOA. Just do your due diligence about what's what wherever you move to.

If you have a decent immune system and constitution, Golden Corral in Freehold.

Epic

The older 96'er... +1 for Peter Luger for being the best. Also a fan of Quality Meats and Old Homestead. Wolfgang's is also good. I'm sad to say I haven't found a steakhouse in NJ as good as the NYC places. Sammy's in Mendham - Steaks are okay, love the shrimp scampi, the kitschy way of ordering, getting drinks and family style eating is cool. Steve's Sizzling Steaks - Steaks are okay. Food, wine and alcohol are decently priced. A great local joint to get a steak without the upscale stuffiness. Root's and Rod's Steakhouse (Summit/Madison/Morristown) - Approaching NYC prices, but not as good. Library II and River Palm Terrace - Pretty good. Can't rule out the Brazilian Rodizio (i.e. Fernandes) in Ironbound or surrounding area for a beef fix (Picanha FTW) As others said, Porterhouse for two at Luger's. Ribeye, medium rare otherwise (marbling = flavor). Creamed spinach, a potato of some sort, and mushrooms. Also, a nice Red wine. Done...

They’ll ship firearms for $20 to local FFL

Some good daily deals going of over at Tanner’s Facebook page now. Looks like they acquired some inventory from another distributor going out of business and are blowing it out. Springfield 1911 Loaded $649 (now sold out) An interesting looking Desert Eagle too https://m.facebook.com/TannersSportCenter/

My humble $0.02... Think about your stopover on your way to FL. Some (or most) of the waypoint towns along I-95 can be kinda shady (i.e. Lumberton, Florence, etc.). If you have huskies and your firearms collection with you, think about how you're going to unload and load your car and get that stuff into your hotel room for the night (discreetly or not). Pack your ride accordingly. If you have CC reciprocity, then not a bad idea to strap up. There's a difference between Duval and St. John's County (kinda like between Sussex and Essex or Hudson). Know and appreciate it. St. John's FOP is my favorite range in the area. Find a way to join if you can. I think it's the best value. I've heard good things about Gateway as well. Get rid of your pinned mags, pinned stocks, or anything else NJ neutered. You won't need them or want them. Hold back the urge to go on a NFA buying binge. Do your homework on what your ideal collection would be and how much money you want to spend. Be judicious. I see guys spend a ton of money on SBR's and suppressors (which don't have any resale value) while they could buy a full auto M11/9 with Lage upper for the same amount of money and have an investment that appreciates over time and is uber fun that sets you apart at the range. Be cool. Don't try to live up to the Yankee transplant stereotype droning on about how things are different between here and up Nawth. Everyone knows gun laws are bad in NJ...they just don't need to keep hearing about it. Purge and declutter now. With no basements here and zero lot construction, you might not have as much space as you would think. On the plus side, renting a commercial warehouse bay can be quite reasonable if you need a hobby space. Get your CCW at the local government-run office. I believe it's run by the Dept. of Agriculture. I had a completion certificate from an NRA Basic Pistol course in the application process so have something like that handy to avoid taking any courses. Krystal is a reasonable substitute for White Castle. Zaxby's is a chain I wish they had in NJ. Best of luck!

I think Corey Booker has more of a chance than Murphy. Obama Part Dieux.

The $10K federal deduction limit on state and local taxes (6% NJ income tax plus your property taxes) is no joke. And, Murphy wants to raise taxes even more. Crazy...

Kudos on a fair and balanced article. There’s always going to be errata (even we don’t get all the facts right amongst ourselves). I’m glad she hooked up with Rosie and Ant. People need to hold their fire the next time a reporter comes around trying to do research and asking in a humble manner. Some of y’all act like sexually frustrated guys at the bar who unload their neuroses on any girl that is willing to listen to them.
