  1. Over the weekend, went to visit friends in Austin. Of course I wanted to see what gun shops in America were like.

     

    In NJ, we may have the strictest gun laws, but we are doing great in terms of availability, COMPARED to Texas. We even have ARs on the shelves now, and handgun stock is OK. They have NOTHING. Overpriced sporterized SKSs is the closest thing I saw to an "assault" rifle. Only used old handguns. Ammo limits are *1* box per customer and you have to be there by 7AM for a chance to get it. I will be visiting 3 local shops this week, calling my Texas friends from there to see if we have guns they were looking for (pretty sure we have them).

     

    There's really no point to this story, other than to provide some perspective. Even the most lenient gun laws are of no use if there is nothing to buy. As for the current gun situation - I now consider ourselves better off than the Texans. For now.


  2. Lucky, i'm on day 11 today and no calls :-(

     

    It's my day 11 too, no calls either. Just have to be patient. As long as no new legislation passes between now and the time I pick up...


  3. I just got the call. The magic number for NICS is 11 days. NJ should really remove the I from NICS as there is no Instant in this process.

     

    Let's see if that's exact - I'm on day 10 and my father is on day 11.


  4. the problem with bugging out......'specially here in nj..........if something makes you want to bug......you can dam well bet that the other half million people around you want to bug too. in this instance, you'd be leaving the relative safety of your easily secured home, and placing yourself into the open, in a nearly unsecurable position.
