I applied quite a while ago and just heard back. It was actually sooner than I expected. I've elected to attend the January meeting as required.

 

I know if accepted you are probationary for some period of time.

 

I was wondering what are the requirements for full acceptance? I'm a pretty reserved guy and a stickler for safety. I have no issues following rules and I'm always respectful of other folks.

 

I really want to make a first and positive impression. I'm sure I'd be a good member of the club.

 

Thanks

Rob

Welcome, at the January meeting (January 15th) you will be asked for the financial obligation, copies of your FID and NRA cards (the business meeting is held the third Wedneday of the month at the Elks Lodge 201 Howard Blvd Mt Arlington, NJ).  You will be introduced during the membership portion of the meeting.  This is called the first reading.  You will then be asked to attend a safety orientation class at the range (usually the Saturday after the business meeting, January 18th at 10AM, 2 hours)  in Mansfield (363 Janes Chapel Rd Oxford (Mansfield) NJ). Make sure they mark you as having attended, you must complete this step before the second reading.  At February Meeting, second reading,  (2/19), you will be voted on as a probationary member.  Your ID and key card will be mailed to you shortly after.  Probationary Members are not allowed to vote for one year.  At the January 2015 meeting you will be voted on for full voting membership.  You must attend all three meeting in this order to become a Probationary Member.

Due to the long waiting list, I cannot remember an open house in quite a while.  I would plan to stop by on a weekend and I'm sure someone could show you around.  First Saturday of the month would allow you to observe a USPSA match if that is an interest.

      The Tax Man Commeth

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
