  1. I'm not just gone, I'm watching the clock click down till retirement. Navy stationed me here & I am not a city boy in any way, so down to Tx or FL (I have family there). I've lived all over this nation I thought Ca was a pain with it's bleeding heart libs but wow. No thanks ... it is really less about the gun laws and more about the gap in classes here, there is no middle ground and the cost of living just keeps climbing which pushes out the middle class.
  2. Well It is here... finally ugh....The system is just broken for this to happen.
  3. I thought I had added an update to my own post not make a second thread... but for those of you who have been watching.... here is the update. I'm going to chose my words carefully... but THEY LOST ALL OF MY PAPER WORK! All of my paper work was missing from the Lakehurst PD thankfully I had copies of everything. The officer was polite and professional and stated he would take care of this issue personally. I was also instructed to provide my supervisors address so that the PD could send a letter of "verification of employment" as he was holding my Military ID card? as I stood there on lunch taking care of this issue. (Rather odd, but hell being military I've been asked/told to do things & have learned to say YES with a big smile.) When I asked why he needed my supervisors address I was told it was standard issue, the officer was never rude or blunt just simply stated it as matter of fact. I want to make it clear I am not frustrated or disappointed with the PD or the officers, I am frustrated that the system has become so broken that no one can clearly understand the requirements. So the clock resets and restarts.........

  5. Thanks for the info off line & for those who asked yes Lakehurst, I didn't get a good vibe when I dropped off my info & provided my military ID. I'm starting to get the idea the local PD may not like military????? NJ2as.org will be my next step, I can be as Patience as the next guy as long as I know I'm not being discriminated against for being military. I've been crazy busy this week but next week I'll start poking around & seeing what sort of response I get? I use to think Cal was bad but this... this is just something else. I can not even fathom how a state can get to this degree of just destroying the 2nd Amendment. Texas & FL are looking a lot better for retirement.
  6. Thanks for the guidance and the assurance I am not losing my mind. lol
  7. As I sit here I will first tell you that relocating from the west to the east coast & understanding NJ gun laws is enough to drive a person insane. I have followed each step, finger print, NJ FID permit request and even paid my money too. I am seriously wondering what did I pay for?! I turned my paper work FEB 17th 2013 and yet no follow up at all. I have debated on weather to call out the PD for the township given we are so small but I have called only once and that was last month simply wanting to know if there was a delay and if there was anything I can do to help. (super sweet nice guy voice) I can understand a delay given all the issues with the NJ gun system. The impact the storm had I am sure is not something that is going to be fixed over night. I have asked my references if they were contacted and both said yes. I even asked my boss (btw I'm in the Navy so that was lots of fun) if he had seen anything. I do not want to tick off the officer but this is unreal I maintain a freaking clearance and have been active duty for over 17 years!? I have no idea what steps I should take to press the issue without it blowing up in my face. Most the posts I have searched here have never had a good time pressing the issue, so if someone could please help me with some insight it would be greatly appreciated. I dropped off paper work on the 17th of Feb finger prints were end of 1st week of March, we are now almost 90+ days?! What should be my next course of action???
  8. I dropped off my paper work & will be doing my finger prints shortly (already have my appointment) the officer mad a comment that response from the employer is what is taking the longest. I didn't argue the issue simply smiled and went on my way. The odd part is I am military so gave my direct supervisor point of contact information. Though just like you I can not find "law" that requires for my bosses yes or no but only for to be for "employment verification". I'll see how this goes as time moves on.
  9. Well I couldn't post the phone call... lol but yes I do call, the question is do you ??
  10. It is funny that you say SC, my wife likes NJ and how close everything is but last night she asked what I thought about living in SC where she could shoot more often. Range fees alone here are crazy let alone all the gun laws currently on the books.
  11. Oh I was never under a false pretense of what they really think, but with the click of a mouse button I was able to send a very short but clear email. The Dem's have developed and streamlined data collection, enough data to swing a choice & they will bite. Because no matter what the white house wants, local gov't still has to live day to day with their choices.
  12. You do know if there is any sort of "win" for the gun owners of NY in this case, that this becomes to toe hold for Gun owners nation wide we need to keep a close eye on it & support it!
  13. It is funny , I has anyone else noticed the "how are we going to enforce these new laws??" comments from local police and troopers in recent media interviews. There is barely enough funding to get things done at the moment, what happens next is Mr Police man going to come knock on my door to check if firearm XYZ is locked and unloaded?
  14. For those of you who might be curious as to what sort of reply you can look forward to reading from Senator Menednez. Dear Mr. XXXXX Thank you for contacting me to express your opposition to a ban on assault weapons. Your opinion is very important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you on this issue. As your Senator, I strongly defend the rights of citizens to use firearms responsibly for recreationalpurposes or protection of one's family and home. At the same time, I vigorously support efforts to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and gangs that wish to use them against society. The Federal Assault Weapons Ban expired on September 13, 2004. On this, as with any issue, there are many different views. I appreciate you taking the time to express your opinion on this important issue. Please be assured that I will keep your views in mind. Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I may be of further assistance. I invite you to visit my website (http://menendez.senate.gov) to learn more about my work in the United States Senate.
  15. I thought anyone would like to see the sort of reply you will get from the 4th district. Dear Friend, Thank you for contacting me using the Write Your Representative (WYR) feature available through my website. This message is to confirm that your email has been received in my office.

As in the past, I will continue to conduct in-depth analysis of information relevant to these issues and will continue to work tirelessly to advance the interests, causes and concerns of the people of New Jersey and the nation. If you are seeking assistance with an individual problem you may be experiencing, either I or one of my staff assistants will be in contact with you shortly.
