    Links don't work.  Russians or Trump?

    Neither. Man-made global climate warming change!

    One of the tornados missed us by maybe 2 miles at most. As 1LtCap said, it went from black to oh crap in the blink of an eye. We had a ton of small hail but thankfully no real damage, except for the plastic gable vents, which now have some holes in them (and were replaced not that long ago. Grrrr...).

    I use these neoprone IWB mag carriers.  Pretty comfy.  4 for $15.

    Also don't forget to wear a stay-tuck black stretchy undershirt.  

    Just picked these up. Seem well made and comfortable to wear. I will be trying these and the neomag, which I already had.

    Also, wondering if other folks have heard this. I learned (don't remember where) that if you are carrying a subcompact that should carry a full-size (and legal capacity for your AO) spare mag. Basically the reasoning is that for subcompact mags you need to flare out your palm a bit when inserting the mag and during fan/crap scenario you may well pinch the side of your hand trying to insert the spare mag. A longer mag does not have this problem. And in free states, it holds more food!

  3. FYI, I just spoke with a US Law Shield attorney regarding amending permits, etc. This is what I was told.

    There are two sure-fire ways to "remove" the restrictions:

    1. Wait 2 years.
    2. Surrender your existing permit and reapply, "surrender" being the key term in order to be able to honestly answer (I think) question 19 on the new application.

    One not-guaranteed way to remove the restrictions: hire an attorney to deal with the township and courts. However, PD and courts in OTHER counties may not honor this. The counties appear to be roughly split in half on this question. The legislature took away the courts' authority to issue permits so on paper they cannot modify existing orders (NJSP direction aside). He used the example of a restraining order. Should the local PD be able to change what a judge ordered? Or if the judge is no longer serving (retired, defrocked, or restricted legally), should he/she be able to change the order? As well, this issue has an automatic sunset built-in when everyone's permits need to be renewed. At that time any court cases or challenges will be rendered moot.

    So, if you don't want to wait, Option 2 will be your cheapest. I am sure the townships will love this but the legislature being derelict and judges doing stuff not required are to blame.

    Also, regarding training requirement changes, which should land in about three months, the rumor is that basically the NJSP won't rock the boat too much for existing permit holders, e..g., if you took your training from someone of the official list at the time you will still be good.

    tried applying to Delaware county online. filled everything out and it wouldn't let me get past putting nj as the state .

    A friend of mine in DE just had this happen today. I applied to Delco Friday and it went through. Guessing they moved up the 4/1 deadline. :(


  5. For those of you considering applying to DelCo, I suggest getting the lead out. I applied today and this was on the second page I saw:

    Effective April 1st, 2023 out of state applicants will not be accepted online. Out of state applicants must apply in person at our office. Failure to comply will result in a withdrawal of your application and a loss of processing fees.

    Also, when doing the conviction checklist, the last question asks if you are out of state. Clicking yes brings up the following, which is hopefully just a website programming issue:

  6. Years ago my girlfriend (now wife) and I stayed at a hotel that she booked and about 2am someone comes knocking on the door saying they brought the towels she requested. I recall thinking this is really fishy so I told him go away in the manliest voice I could muster. Could have been a simple mistake but it was very eye-opening at the time. Ever since, we are always careful.

    The original complaint asked to restore the 15 round limit. That was filed in June 2018.

    After the case was GVR'd after Bruen, it made its way back down to the district court.

    On October 28, 2022, the plaintiffs submitted an amended complaint asking the court for a declaration that a ban on magazines greater that 10 rounds was unconstitutional. This is basically changing the case to unlimited capacity instead of reverting to 15 rounders.

    Thanks you for this! With any luck it won't take 4 years for the state to do its "research."


  8. Gear question: I don't have much room under the seat in my vehicle for a lock box (especially one big enough to hold the gun in the holster). What is the consensus about glove boxes (locked) and center console (lockable with aftermarket kit)? The guy at Shooters talked about using a towel under the seat but I have a hard time believing that's a better option than locking it in the glove box. I also don't buy the "first place someone will look is the glove box" argument. Under the seat is the second or third place so at that point what's the difference? I also don't really something that goes next to the center console and screams "there's a gun in here".
