I've been working on the Rail Road. All of a sudden I'm not a geek no mo LOL

That's how you get roof Koreans.

This shutdown of NICS is making the case to get rid of handgun permits even stronger than it ever was. Handgun permits are completely obsolete now that FTF sales are banned. There is now no way to legally buy a hand gun without a NICS check in NJ aside from the very few limited exceptions where the buyer and seller are an immediate family member, a LEO, or a C&R holder. Add a shutdown of NICS on top of expiring needless permits and I think this is ripe for a lawsuit.

Zeke, stop it! I realize the text looks different... but did you consider he could well have cut the text from an email he himself sent to someone... or from a post he made online elsewhere? Geez, Louise... what's going on around here? Is it Feisty Friday and I didn't get the memo?

Master, I will give you 75

What a piece of junk. I’ll give you $50 for it.

Maybe companies here will wake up. Frankly, I hope the commercial flight ban to and from China is NEVER lifted. Pipe dream? ......sure. But no one in America ever needs to be in China. Ever. Breaking our dependency on China...is like America Prepping.

I think it’s ridiculous. How about just giving It to small business owners that are affected and double to all of the citizens that are out of a job due to covid 19. And triple to the business owners that are closed down.

Here's the thing. It doesn't matter if this is true or not. What matters is if people think it's true. One report on NBC and you won't be able to find a piece of beef jerky in the stores. I bought a bunch of meat some weeks back, but I will re-fill the larder with some extra when I shop tomorrow morning.

I figured it was families that partake in adrenochrome and danced around in the woods drinking the blood of virgins. Since I do none of those things, it must be why I had no compulsion to put a star on my house.

Update: In the NJ2AS case, the State must oppose by April 3; the NJ2AS reply is due April 7, I believe. No date for argument or decision. In the ANJRPC case, the motion for the injunction is not currently accelerated for further briefing and hearing. The default return date is late April, about a month from now. The Association's brief is excellent. Hope it will attempt to expedite this as to dispute may be largely moot given the slow pace of regular motion practice.

@Mrs. Peel You ain't missin' a thing! What SOME people with a chip on their shoulders for the NRA are missing is the fluidity and fast response of Dan Schmutter & the DC lawyerin' crew for ANJRPC to take the Governor's smug reaction & flippant comments to Roubian (the Reporter mentioned in the NRA Instagram that 250K followers already viewed) and USE IT IN THEIR SUIT! Here's a very fair overview of what's going on, published just this morning, prior to picking-up my GFH Goody Bags from Colandro: NJ STATE NRA ASSOC. FILES MOTION ON NICS! ANJRPC PILES-ON WITH A 3RD FED. LAWSUIT! by Black Wire Media Friday Mar. 27, 2020 www.cnjfo.com/join-us In a legal maneuver resembling a one-two punch, the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs (ANJRPC) responded with their own lawsuit ( https://cdn.ymaws.com/…/legal_…/anjrpc_sues_nj_complaint.pdf ) challenging the entire shutdown of the background check system portal the State Police have (needlessly) run for years. Using an Executive Order on COVID-19 as a false front, our Governor's answer to "the Reporter", then smirking about it at a press conference with his arms crossed when called-out on it by NJ2AS's Alex Roubian, our state NRA Association (ANJRPC) did then use the Governor's own remarks to Roubian as part of their suit: "Governor Murphy has even admitted that his assault on the Second Amendment was motivated by his hatred of guns, not by safety concerns about Coronavirus. When asked just yesterday by a reporter why he didn’t deem gun stores to be “essential,” he stated “a safer society for my taste has fewer guns and not more guns.” He said nothing about Coronavirus, which is apparently just a pretext for shutting down the Second Amendment." ---ANJRPC official statement In addition to the lawsuits piling-up over the NICS portal shutdown ---the national NICS is still fully functional btw--- our state NRA Association did file a "PLAINTIFFS’ BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF THEIR MOTION FOR A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND/OR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION". This vitally important document seeks "injunctive RELIEF" (rather IMMEDIATE!) and can be read here: https://cdn.ymaws.com/…/lega…/anjrpc_sues_nj_legal_brief.pdf The Second Amendment Foundation spearheaded a lawsuit against the NICS shutdown, filing it yesterday with multiple plaintiffs including CNJFO sponsor Legacy Indoor Range and Armory, Legend Firearms, Robert Kashinsky and other individuals, Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) and NJ2AS. It can be viewed here: https://documentcloud.adobe.com/link/track… When reached for comment, Melissa Deeney, co-owner of Plaintiff Legacy Indoor Range & Armory in Cinnaminson, NJ had this to say: "I'm happy to see so many suits aligned against this blatant attack on our 2A rights. The most upsetting part for me personally is the first time buyers. They have been vetted by the state, have their FID (after usually months) and permits - and we cannot help them. All the state has to do is let us use the Federal System directly or allow the NICS State team to work remotely. Instead they shut down the ability to submit new checks. Our entire queue (customer list of transfers awaiting approvals--Ed.) of Friday (3/20) and Saturday (3/21) work was warned that they may not come back before the anticipated shut down. They are all in limbo. The one that upsets me the most is a woman who came in for her first purchase... Fear is palpable... She still can't have her firearm because the state shut NICS down at the state level." ---Melissa Deeney, Legacy Indoor Range & Armory As more news breaks we'll be sure to give it to you, as always with our expert analysis & opinion. ---The Editors A very good friend of mine who happens to volunteer for the NJ women of The DC Project, Legacy Indoor Range & Armory FFL Melissa Deeney's quote is also made bold. Legacy is a co-Plaintiff on the original (SAF, NJ2AS, Kashinsky, Legend Firearms, et-al) case FACTS work for me better than supposition. If I want a story with FACTS, I get on the phone. Really wish more people here would learn, for once, to play nice & stop throwing gas on a fire! Have a COVID-19 free day! Rosey

Perhaps this has been posted before, though I don't recall seeing it. Either way, it's excellent. From the folks at Black Rifle Coffee Quarantine

Best laugh today.

Another test; observe the bloom. Now rotate the optic 90 degrees. If the bloom rotates, it's in the sight. If the bloom is still in the same place, the fault is in your astigmatic eye.

Kevin. 25 likes. Soooo correct. It might hurt initially. But thats what we need. Self dependency!!!! ! We need to rebuild our infrastructure agian. Screw china and all their cheap crap we buy from them. Id rather have 5 quality items than 10 pieces of crap for the same price.

Federal, dollars to doughnuts, it'll count for NJ.

Pistol: 5 yards, then 10, then 20. Rifle: 25 yards, then 50, then 100. Shotgun: 10 yards, then 25 Quit your bitchin and start flingin. That shouldn't cost you the fee of the laser, it should cost you 10 or 12 rounds of ammo and a half hour.

There are two separate cases before different federal judges. One by NJ2AS, the other by ANJRPC. The NJ2AS case had the conference. No word on line so far. The ANJRPC case was filed yesterday, March 25, and moved for an injunction today. The State has not filed responses in either matter thus far.

Time for an unsanctioned ass-kicking by bat wielding store employees. Or some combo of tazer and pepper spray. I'm sure I'd wind up in jail, but if I owned that store those people would not have left under their own power. Except maybe crawling.

I had issues with cloud based cameras too, that's why my systems are hardwired and record to a DVRs in my house. I'm the only one with access to them, not a bunch of cloud technicians or LEOs, who knows where they are. Plus, I control the length and type of storage, not some cloud company technician, that can turn it off with a click of a mouse. Plus, there's been multiple reports of their systems getting hacked, and hackers watching what's going on in your house. No thanks... I'll be the technician...

https://www.nj.com/coronavirus/2020/03/could-loss-of-taste-smell-be-linked-to-covid-19-2-nj-doctors-say-evidence-is-mounting.html Thought this was interesting. Seems even asymptomatic people may show this one even if they have no other signs. I am still of the opinion that probably 100,000 or more people in the US have or had the virus already but it was never identified so the death rates and percentages of violently ill people being tossed around are vastly inflated. -Jim

I am going to recommend a Walther PPQ. I love my 5” with a streamlight as a HD pistol and it is probably the most accurate striker fired pistol I have tried yet. Even my poor shooting got a fist sized group at 25 yards. Out of the box the trigger is great. Only downside with the 5” is it’s tough to find holsters that work with the streamlight and 5” barrel. I have the regular 5” not the q5 because I didn’t feel like the q5 added $300 value to me over the stock 5”. https://waltherarms.com/ppq-m2-3/ -Jim

With an Aero Precision 10.5” upper plus pinned KVP Linear comp (approx 2”) I’m coming up with 26.5” with a standard buffer tube.

I was told tonight by a neighboring municipality leo that they were to stand down to driving infraction stops. Only interact with real issues. I guess violent crimes only. Thats why you haven’t seen many cars pulled over. Shits gettin real. And now bucky knocks out the 2a. Good job jackass.

Reason why you're not getting the same refund is because it was added to each of your weekly checks during the year. You can't compare refund amounts year over year, you have to look at your total tax liability for each year.

It took me a minute to realize that. Sarcasm was never my strong suit unfortunately.

Journal entry, Day 6 of Quarantine. I found a dead fly.

The one that started this thread.

And that's what will happen. Those stores will move out of these areas and then they'll have nothing.

Did tactical training at GFH, overall a very good experience.

Yup, Joe is a great instructor. Classes are great.

I second this. I am a training junkies and have taken classes from some of the best and most sought after instructors out there. Sights & Triggers is a tremendous value - excellent and affordable training right in our own backyard. Spend your money on Joe with confidence.

Sometimes, getting to know the right people in this community will get you pointed in the right direction. Come shoot at group meetups, learn from experienced shooters and be open minded. You would be surprised what you can learn (and unlearn) just by paying attention.

and guess who will be the ones who will have to pay that bill? https://www.usdebtclock.org/ You owe $72,965 RIGHT NOW! Those numbers should make you want to puke.

Pretty much, does nothing but give money to lower income individuals... and TONS of money towards government spending... TONS!

This wasn't a bail out or stimulus; this was just another wealth transfer.

I guess me and wifey are getting nothing, as ussual. And we owe 5k in taxes too with a tax withholding of zero taxable deductions. Silver lining is neither of our jobs seem impacted as of yet

Working remote, assisting with e-learning, taking cruises past @Golf battery's place once in a while.

Complete opposite of the broken windows policy that worked so well when Rudy cleaned up NYC.

I don't qualify.

I was really looking into ring until I found out they decided to allow law enforcement agencies access to your videos whenever they request, without your knowledge, permission or consent. They say it is so they can prosecute crime faster, but I have an issue with my security footage being accessible by anyone but me without my consent.

They've already cracked. Is their a local "chatter" page for your town on Facebook? Mine has one. Those people are beyond the help of medical intervention... it's scary... Just remember, if you don't store the video on your own hardware, you don't own it.

I recommend some wifi cameras outside your home set to alert you to motion. Blink is decent and does not have any sort of contract.

No Sir - I only have 2, like everyone else........
