Here's the latest... the policy was re-written (as you probably knew) and the school is apparently now dealing directly with the students and their families to resolve things. ANJRPC is waiting to see what happens next. Eh, my feeling? If ANJRPC can get this resolved with no negative impact on the kids AND a new policy in place -- all with the mere "threat" of a lawsuit --- then that's an excellent use of their legal funds. IMO, you don't chew up money given to you by members/donors when you don't need to - there'll be much bigger battles in this era that need to be fought. What I particularly like though is the "cooperative" nature of this action: CNJFO broke the story, ANJRPC got an attorney right on it, they helped each other out... and in doing so, helped the 2A community out. This is how these orgs SHOULD operate... so it's great to see. ANJRPC WINS! SCHOOL CAPITULATES & REWRITES ANTI-GUN POLICY AFTER ANJRPC THREATENS TO SUE! March 18 - the Lacey Township School District has quietly capitulated to ANJRPC's demand in a cease and desist letter last week that it rescind a blatantly unconstitutional written policy allowing disciplinary action against students "reported to be in possession of a weapon of any type for any reason or purpose WHETHER ON OR OFF SCHOOL GROUNDS during the academic year." That policy came to light when it was reported that disciplinary action was taken against several students for posting social media photos of themselves near firearms at a target range. A policy that allows for discipline of students for exercising a fundamental right off of school grounds is clearly unconstitutional and violates the Second Amendment. A policy that allows disciplinary action for posting a picture of the exercise of that fundamental right off of school grounds also violates the First Amendment. The outrageous and unconstitutional policy was quietly rescinded, entirely re-written, and then posted to the Lacey Township High School website late last week. The new policy no longer attempts to chill the lawful exercise of Second Amendment rights off of school grounds, and instead prohibits carrying or possession of any "weapon or simulated weapon," including "imitation firearms," on school grounds or buses. While it appears that the most obvious and offensive Constitutional violations have been removed, ANJRPC counsel is still carefully reviewing the new policy for other potential issues. ANJRPC has also received reports that the school is attempting to amicably resolve issues concerning disciplinary action privately with the students and their families. Because of the sensitive nature of this process, and the importance to the students of clearing their permanent records, ANJRPC is intentionally not aggressively injecting itself into this process at this time, and urges other activists to follow suit and avoid politicizing those private discussions, which could harm the students. The media extensively covered this story, and ANJRPC figured prominently in the coverage. Here is just a sample: NJ1015 .com: Click here. The Daily Caller: Click here. NRA-TV: Click here.

Howdy y’all!! It’s a beautiful day to make sausage! Mrs. Tex has been bugging me to make homemade chicken sausage. The other night, we saw what looked like an interesting recipe for a french chicken meatloaf, we thought it would make a pretty tasty sausage. As it turns out, we were right. Here’s the recipe: Ingredients 1 stale demi loaf (sliced) or 2 cups of breadcrumbs 1 cup of fat-free half & half 5 chicken breasts* Herbes de Provence 1/2 cup of shallots, chopped 1 clove of garlic, minced 1/2 cup of curly parsley, chopped 1/2 cup of goat cheese Salt to taste *We chose to use a 50/50 mix of boneless/skinless thighs to breasts. This will help keep it moist. We prefer organic chicken...just because. The damn pics posted out of order, but you get the idea. Break up the bread, don’t worry too much about the size, it’s gonna run through the grinder later. Soak it in the half and half and put it aside for now. Grind the chicken. We used a coarse grind, as it’s going to run through the grinder a second time. Chop the shallots and parsley. Again, don’t worry about chopping it fine. It will run through the grinder in a second...add garlic, kosher salt, and pepper. Mix the bread with the shallot mixture, and run it through the grinder. Take this, and add it to the chicken. Mix by hand. Add the goat cheese. Make sure you mix this up real nice. At this point, we fried up a little sample of the sausage to test seasoning. We hit it on the mark the first time. Tasty!! I use a natural hog sausage casing for my sausage. You can usually get it at your butcher shop or your grocery store. I know Shop Rite carries it in the frozen section. It is packed in salt, so make sure you rinse the casing well inside and out. Thread it onto your sausage stuffing attachment for your meat grinder. Don’t tie the end off yet....run a bit of the sausage mixture into the grinder to ‘prime’ the stuffer. Once it comes out the end, pull the casing back and knot it off. Begin stuffing your sausage. You’ll develop a feel for it. Every so often, about 10”, twist the casing a few times to separate links. Here I am in action.. It helps to have a 3rd hand, so I encourage you to either grow one, or enlist your lovely spouse to assist you. This is a messy job, but SO worth the effort. Pretty soon, you’ll have some lovely homemade sausage, no preservatives, no chemicals, and made with love by your own two (three) hands. We also made a second batch, as variation of the above recipe. We substituted the herbs de province and shallots with caramelized onion, and parsley. Used Parmesan cheese instead of goat cheese. Other than that, the process is the same. I vacuum sealed everything to keep it fresh in the freezer. Good eats, y’all!!!

No, the handgun would not be damaged. If you are intending to just hang them on the wall to display them, I would strongly advise against it! It's nobodies business which guns you own and displaying them in such a fashion could very well come back to bite you in the butt! Do what you wish but I would NEVER advertise what I own!

Anyone have any good pheasant recipes? We got a few this weekend and I have no idea how to cook them! Thanks

siders get stabbed. commited seppuku with my utility knife, 2 nights in hospital. got 30-40 stitches in my hands , 5-6 at a time. and yes you feel REAL stupid each time.

I visited their Bedminster store once before it closed. Extremely cool! It was like a wonderful old gun museum, only you could handle the exhibits. Anything under $100,000, they had out on racks right on the showroom floor, and you could handle to your hearts content (no need to show an FID here!) The expensive stuff they had in display cases, and you had to ask first. When I was there, the most expensive item seemed to be a gorgeous old Perazzi double set, with barrels in several gauges, for almost $300,000. Man, if I'd just hung onto all the money I spent buying my first home and the five new cars I've bought in my lifetime...nevermind, all that still wouldn't have covered the cost of the Perazzi.

Resident hunting license is fine.

I prefer a desktop. More reliable, easier to maintain and large monitor for old eyes. You can pick up a decent compact desktop PC for well under $700.00 and a nice big monitor (that doubles as a streaming TV/Movie screen) for about $300.00. EDIT: btw, I do not trust the "cloud" I back up all my data locally on thumb drives.

This is like the Xzibit meme of guns... Yo dawg, I heard you like guns so I put a gun in your gun so you can shoot while you're shooting

Zeke is right! Focus on the tetanus shot/possible infection first. Don't mess around with a deep puncture wound. Sheesh! You might have hit the nerve, or there could be swelling in the area pressing on the nerve... who the heck knows? Nerves can take a long time to regenerate. But ummm... I think you would benefit from an actual doctor, not us (the NJGF peanut gallery), LOL!

i'll take a dozen links, smoked please. Thanks ....looks awesome Jeff!

I would hope that my fellow 2A supporters who cannot attend will donate funds to any pro-gun group in New Jersey.

All in all, I'd say very well-handled thus far by ANJRPC. It was a thoroughly ridiculous clause in the school handbook and I'm glad the school has already backed down and re-written it. It's a shame it took threat of a lawsuit, but still, a good result. The main takeaway for me though is just how much some schools will overreach (acting like they're the ones in charge of kids and not the kids' parents). I'm glad they got rocked back on their heels in this case!

Formula 1 "lights out"! cant wait!

I think i need to patron this range now, just to support a business that has to deal with drama like that.

considering the shit that went down there I'm still surprised PA let them get an FFL, and that the owners aren't in prison for 100 years.

White Oak is highly popular among High Power shooters. If they weren't "accuracy barrels" they wouldn't have such a following with that crowd. I encourage you to check them out. I have a slight bias as I helped John develop their new 3-gun barrels, which are freakin' awesome, but they are not the style you're looking for.

I worked at the flagship furniture in 1970. Union drive-in was still open. RT. 22 was a drag strip when the trains came across it would close 22. It was a closed rd. drag strip! Wasn't always a deathtrap!

Remember - SCFGPA you can fire .22LR rifles at the regular indoor range.

Tough to beat versatility of 10/22. Others to consider Remington Model 34, French MAS-45, or Polish, German, or U.S. training rifles. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

I have used them also and they work great. I stopped using plated heads, don't like the "soft centers", prefer the coated hard cast. Fast burning powders and coated heads leave you with an amazingly cleaner barrel and great ballistics.

At a $100 to $125 a 100 clay round, that is just a little over the top IMHO. Not to mention their attire and shotshell regulations. Definitely priced to keep the average Joe out. Everybody appreciates a finely crafted firearm, but for me G&H is way above the common man's budget. No Thanks. For me, I have Beretta, Benelli, and Ruger to pick from when I go shooting clays. Somehow the Ruger RL is always the most comfortable.

Supposedly you can... https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202702 Just beware - this is an apple product sold by a 3rd party seller from Amazon...

@Mrs. Peel

bat house. they are not in there right now, but you will get them soon

If you do go the laptop rout, i highly recommend getting one with a SSD (Solid State Drive) It has no moving parts. Laptop HDDs are the least reliable of mechanical storage.

If you have never dressed a bird, here's a tip. Get yourself a brick or two of paraffin wax. Melt the wax in water, you don't need to boil it, just melt it. Fill a 5 gallon bucket about half way with very hot water and add the melted wax to the bucket. Hold the head and dip the bird in the bucket and slowly pull the bird out. You want a thick coating of wax on the feathers so you may have to dip it more than once. Let the wax firm up and then peel it off like you would peel an orange. Most of the feathers will come off with the wax. You will probably need to repeat it once more to get the pin feathers.

Great news! Good luck!

I take the breast meat, cut it off the bone and make some small cubes with 'em. Season to taste - salt/pepper/garlic powder/Goya Adobo seasoning Wrap each cube with a half a piece of bacon, then put it on a skewer. You can grill 'em up like this, or put in the oven and broil.

Here's another recent review of the P365. Also some discussion of available holsters.

Jeebus, you guys are poster-children for common sense blade control.

Today, Sunday, March 18th, I attended a 50-Clay Shoot for 40 shooters at Griffin & Howe at Hudson Farm in Andover, NJ. The event was to celebrate Griffin & Howe's recent partnership with James Purdey & Sons, considered one of the finest, if not the finest gunmaker in England. They had on display over 40 Purdey O/U and Side-By-Side shotguns, that had incredible detail resulting from a very high level of painstaking workmanship. It was fun to handle and oogle them, but that is as far as I can take it since they are priced from around $50,000 to over $120,000 each. I know that they will not make me a more accurate clay shooter but, just like a Ferrari or Bugatti automobile, I certainly do appreciate the time and effort of the expertise of the craftsmen who created and produced such fine detailing, fit and finish that resulted in each exquisit shotgun. For the sporting clay shoot, we all arrived around 9:00 a.m. and my car thermometer read 21 deg. F. outside. While I have shot outside in temperatures in the mid-30's, this was by far the coldest day I have gone shooting outside. At least we were dressed warmly so once underway we were fine on this crisp cold, clear and sunny day. The first 3-4 stations for our group of 4 were very challenging due to their facing east and the clay launchers sending the clays up high, with the sun right in our line of sight, making aiming very difficult. For those of you who have shot sporting clays at Hudson Farm, you know that their course is one of the most interesting and well manicured setups in the northeast U.S. IMHO, Hudson Farm, along with the Orvis Sandanona Shooting Grounds in Millbrook, NY are two of the finest sporting clay courses in the northeast U.S. Even with the remaining snow coverage, each shooting station was clearly very carefully planned and created to provide a unique shooting experience, incorporating the beautiful natural topography of the surrounding landscape. They also incorporated green, black and orange clay disks at different stations for added variety. Afterwards, for lunch they provided a very nice spread of various hors d'oeuvres that included wild game meats, along with beer and wine. The representatives from G&H and James Purdey & Sons answered questions about their guns for sale, gunsmithing services, gun fitting and shooting school. All in all, a very civilized outing on a very brisk morning. Over the past three years at Griffin & Howe at Hudson Farm has consolidated all of their operations from Bedminster, NJ and Greenwich, CT to the 3,800 acre Hudson Farm in Andover, NJ. Over this same time frame, I have taken multiple private clay shooting lessons; hosted a group clay shooting lesson for my wife and my sister/brother-in-law; had my new shotgun fitted by them and have used their gunsmith services, all of which have been excellent and most appreciated. While not inexpensive, from my experience they know what they are doing regarding sales, instruction and servicing and are a very dependable, high quality resource for shotgun and long gun enthusiasts in northern NJ. I am curious if any other NJGF members also attended this event or other charity shooting events here or have used G&H's services recently. I know that Parker has, as well as fishnut has in the past and also had a good experience with them, specifically getting help with his 1933 Winchester model 21. Any others?

Better get used to the other hand then

Just as an aside, use pet claw trimmers for zip ties. It's a trick I came up with when I used to run network cables for a living. It's like they were made for it. Hope it heals up nicely and you get your feeling back. On the bright side, chicks dig scars.

Yeah. Same here took about 2 years to get feeling back. Tetanus shot. Can if you want to. But any shot is not good. I got one last week at the va. Never saw such a black and blue mark from a shot before. I shoulda said no. When you get cut It bleeds. That bleeding pushes out any infections or other bad stuff. Until it starts to coagulate. Then the body starts to self heal. Also. Sounds crazy. But dogs saliva has antceptics in it. I got a bad cut 2 years ago on the top of my palm. Ya know where all those veins are that do to your fingers. It was from a 50 yr old rusted corrugated drain pipe. Bled like crazy. I probably nicked the vein. I hosed it off it slowed down in bleeding. I went home. My dog just kept licking it. Within two weeks it was totally healed up. I can imagine what your thinking. But it worked. I dont do meds or doctors unless it’s necessary.

Got my left hand in the path of a running lawn mower blade!........Don't ask! I survived and have total feeling restored! I am on the side of how wonderfully the human body is at healing itself and I say you will be fine!

yea. i got a TDAP? i hink it's called? over the summer when i ripped my right hand open under the dash of a car........i also spent 2 days having a fever from that dam shot.

Tetanus? Up to date?

LOTS OF MONEY!

I would think he knew it was a joke and was playing along. If he was serious, then ....

This is it !!!! Exactly. 100 percent. That was their intent. Perfect. So many are so cozy and self indulgent. Ask the japenese American camp detainies how they feel.

At $3.75 they’re probably only 10 page mags. I’ll wait for the 5 page mags for $1.75.

Why not leave some of that "junk" over your friend's house and keep the guns with you where they belong?

Didn’t get a call, but did a little more investigation... Inside the light, there is a spring on the bulb side, but nothing on the inner terminal (positive). I can’t see the slide or dry-fire causing the battery to jump... but I guess anything is possible. Looking at it, I figured the switch was a self-contained unit, and had all the components other than the bulb and battery. The way they did the switch design is very interesting. In my pictures, you see the rubber switch assembly. All it is... a rubber boot. Think the rubber button plate for a remote control or a car remote. There are two disc pressure points on each side of the control board, which is like a cube coming out the back of the housing, and the rubber boot allows for it to be activated by push in or forward. The thing that struck me was how lacking the switch boot is... and held on with three screws. It sort of looks like those boots will be swappable, making remote switches easier to install. I’m actually hoping for a toggle setup, like the older TLRs, but I think Glock pressure switches will likely come out first. Depending how it fits in my holsters, I might consider something like that. Have one for my M&P to use with my TLR-1s, which I like... but rarely use. In regards to the upgrade, no idea on how it is a user install. Shy of the boot, everything else looks soldered in. Unless they are going to give a disk with a spring to shove in front of the battery... I’m stumped.

Guys, if it gets to the point where an armed teacher actually has to intervene, then odds are we've failed already, as that means that PREVENTION has failed, and odds are a few die (at least) until an armed teacher gets involved. What we need to do is PREVENT this shit from happening altogether, via EFFICIENT use of the NICS system, POLICE doing their damn jobs, and CIVILIANS reporting suspicious activity (like the kid building pipe bombs in your neighbors garage). The act of placing armed teachers and guards at schools is, in my opinion, entirely a preventative measure. If it gets to the point where intervention is needed, odds are at least a few will die before the person is stopped.
