    People have been approved on day 30 as above, but doesn't the statute state "within 30 days". The would mean day 30 is "within" the time frame.

     

    FYI, the Feds use 3 business days plus one when NICS is delayed.

    45Doll is correct. Don't forget that he's counting March 8 as Day 0. That puts it outside the 30 day window that he counts.

    It's an auto. Hard to find a manual. I do some commuting so the auto will be more comfortable. The thing rides so damn smooth and man it is quiet. Moved to this from a Kia Soul LOL. This is like my dream truck. I have always wanted one of these. The fit and finish are awesome. To top it off Tacoma is one one of (and in some lists THE TOP) rated in retaining resale value. I haven't anything to knit pick at yet.

    6spd is the best theft deterrent available on the market!

     

    I bought a Wrangler Unlimited back in '08 but strongly considered the FJ Cruiser. I would have gone with a Tacoma if they had this model back then. In fact, the ONLY thing stopping me from trading for the new Tacoma is a lifetime warranty on the Wrangler.

    After holding a Beretta Pico for 10 seconds, I already didn't like it. Not enough gun for my hands to grab.

     

    I find the Beretta Bobcat is instinctive to hold/point and very accurate in .22LR. The action is DA/SA and can cock n' lock. The slightly thicker grip nestles comfortably in my palm. The only issue (besides comments about 22 stopping power, etc) is that 50 rounds or so can cause it to hang up on a full mag due to carbon build up.

    Lack of training and awareness. I've seen videos where fleece shirt toggles get caught in the trigger guard, people with their finger on the trigger while reholstering.

     

    Train with what you plan on carrying and pay close attention to your trigger discipline and clothing choices.

     

    It's not a Glock problem. it's user error.

    From your mouth to God's ears.

    I'll pile on my support.

     

    I'm in their system and have ordered handgun ammo before. I must be marked as "FID on file".

     

    I jumped on the Federal deal for 9mm on Tuesday with free shipping. UPS shows it arriving tomorrow. After rebate, I'll have 1,000 rounds of brass cased 115gr for $159.

     

    +1 for PSA from me

    The tax return is NOT the money you are getting back. I don't know why people keep saying that but it's annoying. Heck, you got it right the first time and then you did it, too :D

    If it pleases the crown, I'll use the terms he is following to get the proper point across. Man alive, you're a stodgy prick.

    :D

     

    Matt - if you had too little withholding and have to make a small payment on tax day, that means you had MORE money in your pocket all year. If that's $1,000, the benefit is that you could have had that money in an account, perhaps earning interest for YOU! It might not be much, but it would be yours and not the governments interest income.

     

    Of course, don't forget you'd have to pay more income tax in that extra income though.

    So your saying that all these years I've been getting a decent refund something was wrong? It's would have caught on by now for sure.

    You both are talking past each other. Maybe I can help explain.

     

    The return is basically a "true up to actual" against the estimated tax withholding done throughout the year. If you're getting a large refund, that means your estimate takes too much from your monthly take-home pay.

     

    Remember, the tax return is your money that you're getting back. Wouldn't you rather have it right away instead of waiting until April of the following year to get your own money back? If you agree, you now better understand how it works.

    This thread got me to pull out my credit card and order a Beretta 92A1 blue gun. It came with removable magazines weighted for "empty" and "loaded" to help simulate mag changes.

     

    Now begs the question, does anyone have online training exercises they can recommend? I'd like to do something with this other than shout "pew pew" in my basement while watching The Walking Dead.

    What a duplicitous ignoramus.

     

    "We don't want anyone from any state to be able to carry a gun in New Jersey," Panozzo went on,

     

    Panozzo added that he hoped that gun owners could work with the Brady Campaign on the issue of gun violence. “We want well-trained, fit American citizens to have guns and use them for the defense of their family, for hunting, for sport,” he said.

     

    I'm well-trained and fit! Where's my carry permit??
