    i'm in near philthy. only thing i think i gotta worry about is if a significant wave manages to trav el up the del. river......

    Your biggest concern would be syringes from Kensington washing over your property....

    As Glen mentioned, this seems like a very infrequent event.  I remember reading news stories about the possibility of this something like 20 or 30 years ago.

    How many times has this happened in the last 500 years?  I don’t think too many times.

    Some incidentals that may also want to have.

    Range bag

    Tools (screw drivers, torx, allen keys, etc)

    Staple gun if you don’t use adhesive targets

     

    If you go to a rifle range...

    Binoculars or a spotting scope, maybe a sandbag/rest, a mat if you shoot prone, a smaller mat if your shooting benches are rough concrete.

    Scopes are nice but you can shoot 200 yds with a decent red dot if you don’t want to spend $$$ on a scope just yet.

    An AR500 steel target. 12 inch is a decent size.  And a can of white spray paint.  Plus a way to hang it. Search that and you’ll find some options.

    A target stand that your range approves of for paper targets.  I think most ranges require targets at a height that will put rounds into the backstop when passing through the target. As opposed to skipping off the dirt down range. Check the rules for where ever you shoot.

    Some people like brass catchers.  I’ve tried just one type and found it to be more of a hassle than it was worth. Just my opinion. But sweeping up your brass is also a hassle. Yet one or the other are usually required.

    Necessity will help with the rest.  Have fun.

    I’m not up on the details of this thing but they go on a trip and he and her separate.....and he just comes home then disappears from view.

    Either he killed her and is at a loss what to do except hide under the covers...or maybe something bad happened to her at the hands of someone else and he is scared s@@@less he will be blamed.....or maybe she blew him off and he just said eff it and came home and wasn’t interested in explaining anything.  Then got scared when she is nowhere to be found.  Maybe there are other possibilities, but these seem the most likely to me.

    The encounter with police looks bad for him. Her ending up missing or dead after that situation makes him their favorite person to talk to.

    Modern “Climate Science”.....

    “Look at the time represented by the thickness of a piece of paper to predict the trends represented by the height of a telephone pole.  Also use crayons to create precision charts.

    Seriously.  That’s where they are at in this climate business.   Its not political. Its dumb.

    FWIW, a friend of mine, who's very, discerning, loves the sizzling ribeye at Klees Bar and Grill in Seaside.  They bring it out on a sizzling platter like Ruth Criss at half the price.

    Filet Mignon on the specials menu is the same.  I know many people, who think they have money, insist on spending big bucks or they feel they aren't getting anything.

    Ok..that place just made my list.

    EAST TN  is where all the new jersey/new york liberals moved...no thanks....my only neighbors are goats out here....lol....and two militia less than half mile away

    we shoot with the local sherriff at his 100 yard lot...lol

    Got a friend who moved to Sparta, TN in White County.  About 12 years ago. From Staten Island, NY. He is a little right of Attila the Hun.  So no NY Lib.  Got 75 acres on a mountain, with a fishing pond, nice out building and. 3600 sq ft recently build log cabin. For $350k.

    Manalapan is usually pretty good.  Its been a while since I applied for permits but 30 days or so was typical.  Expect a little longer now.

    Just watch email for notices or anything you need to do.  Contact Lt. Drucker if you are not hearing back.  He is usually in 1 day per week. He is retired but covers Firearms. Good guy.

    A good local shop is Howell Gun works. Inventory is low everywhere, but if you want “something”... like a simple 12 ga pump shotgun, they will probably have something like that on hand.

    Also check out the FFLs listed here in the forums. Many good FFLs that operate small shops or out of homes (yes...legally) and they may have what your looking for.  Just ask here.

    If you use an out of state shop like Heritage Guild in Easton, PA, they will have to transfer the gun to a NJ FFL that you pick.  I find it easier to just shop in NJ.

    Avoid Dicks Sports.  That company is an enemy of the firearms community. Just my opinion.  

    If you need a place to shoot, there are a number of Public ranges. But you can also join clubs like Old Bridge RPC and Central Jersey RPC.  Both clubs also have competition shoots open to the public that help newer shooters, but get some practice and or training first if you are new to shooting.  Its worth the time.

     

    good luck and welcome

    Deptford area had a tornado reported earlier.  Unknown damage.

    Kearny had one. Severely damaged a large building with 400 people inside. It sounded like that huge Post Office near 15X.  Don’t know how that turned out. 

    The source of info was live emergency services radio calls.

    You gotta get one.  Similar to a pump shotgun there is just something about manually working the action.  Classic lines.  Not an "evil black rifle".  Versatile, especially if you get one that shares same caliber as a revolver.  And just all around cool.

    Yeah,  nice to have a piece of history.  Some of the cartridges are pretty hefty.  Not really long range, but I suppose they weren’t built for long range.  Will have to check availability of ammo.  Sadly, thats part of the decision process these days.
