  1. How about the same for those running for political office? Now THAT'S a bill I could get behind! RW3
  2. This could be big: 21-1160 MORIN, ALFRED V. LYVER, WILLIAM, ET AL. The petition for a writ of certiorari is granted. The judgment is vacated, and the case is remanded to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit for further consideration in light of New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v. Bruen, 597 U. S. ___ (2022) This was a case where a concealed carry permit holder in MA was arrested in DC for carrying (dude went to a museum and tried to 'check' his gun with police when he saw a no gun sign). Could have impacts for National Reciprocity
  3. At the 49ers/Rams game last night, an animal rights activist carrying a pink smoke flare ran onto the field, eluding security but not linebacker Bobby Wagner and defensive end Takkarist McKinley https://www.sfgate.com/49ers/article/Protester-bloodied-by-Rams-Bobby-Wagner-17484862.php
  4. You mean how not to act like a prepubecent child when you see someone legally carrying? I sure hope so.
  5. There are lots of factors to consider, some if which you won't know in advance. Just a couple of years ago a permit holder was arrested on his way to/from work and charged with possession of hollow points for having critical defense ammo. All charges were eventually dropped, but the whole thing could have been avoided if the cop didn't even know the guy was in possession of his gun. I don't know if the cop drew down on him. Concealed is concealed. If they ask, I won't lie, but I'm not going to volunteer anything to draw scrutiny for anything unrelated to the stop.
  6. You can also watch 1st & 2nd amendment audits. Audit the Audit, Lackluster, Long Island Audit. Even innocent conversation is really being used to find ways to lock you up. Zip it.

  8. Another bill is coming. Probably first in the nation? California requires a psych eval for carry. NOt sure if they do for ownership. NJ would be the first to require it for ownership https://www.njleg.state.nj.us/bill-search/2022/A4717 No text yet, but we may see it soon.

    Pro Stock Racer Kyle Koretsky and family bought the track this year..... They are dumping tons of money into it and have a 5 year plan for improvements..... Even this year alone..... the difference was visable. This will be a Premier track in the Northeast
  11. "The case in question, Morin v. Lyver, centers around a controversial Massachusetts law that imposes strict restrictions on the possession and purchase of handguns, including the need for a license in order to purchase or posses a pistol. The law also includes a lifetime ban on purchasing handguns on anyone convicted of a nonviolent misdemeanor involving the possession or use of guns."

  12. Guy next to me didn't own up to it but he did fail the qualification
  13. Ok, just for fun and opinions.. First, i plan on qualify and listing at least 3 guns. Maybe 4, just for the hell of it. A family member will be doing my qualifications so additional guns is not an issue. But im thinking more than 3 may just piss off the prosecutor or judge once my app makes it that far.. My most likely main carry will be my Springfiled XD-s 9mm.. Really, just what this gun was designed for; and carried IWB. Its new, only about 100 rounds through it. I shoot it well, and fairly accurate. My second one will a be full size Glock 22 .40s&w. Im a fairly big guy at 5-10 & 240 lbs. I wear a lot of sweatshirts and outdoor jackets when the weather turns cold. Figured this may be an option using a OWB holster. Then figured, just for fun.... My two-tone Tisas 1911 in .45 Loaded up with Wilson Combat parts, rubber Hogue grip. It feels great in the hand, shoots wonderful. But its big and heavy! But so am i, so not that big a deal. Have a IWB for it already. It is slim, just large and heavy. And lastly; Dont laugh.. I love this gun! Just shoots fantastic, and very accurate. My Taurus PT-92C Kinda unique model 92 being the C (compact). Still a big gun, and wide. But feels great and shoots even greater! made in Brazil in the the Beretta factory. Perfect clone, and every bit as good as the Beretta version, maybe better as i prefer the frame mounted safety over the Berettas slide mounted safety. And really gave thought to listing the S&W 686 Stainless 6" barrel .357mag You know, if shit really hits the fan, and the wild west has a rebirth during a collapsing country, this would fit the bill for non-concealed holster carry.. This is by far the most accurate gun i own. I just cant help but smile and even giggle a little bit when i shoot it. If you dont have a 357 revolver, buy one! Especially if you reload! Cant shoot much cheaper than than 2.8gr of bullseye under a 148 gr lead wadcutter. Accurate, cheap, and fun! Im a member at CJRPC, and really want to get more into competitive shooting. Some members here on NJGF gave me a taste of shooting/practicing at steel and it was a blast. Just gotta get life settled down enough to give me the time to get more involved. Would also love to get into the bowling pin shoots, maybe cowboy action, etc. Hence, the thoughts of maybe adding a gun or two outside of the compact typical carry gun. Would there be a benefit to being able to carry the gun on you that you will be shooting/competing with at the range??
  14. Submitted my PTC app this morning. My town actually did something that isn't obstructionist - they have a person in the police records division reviewing/accepting PTC applications instead of the rarely-available firearms detective. No appointment needed, walk in, reviews and advises if anything is incomplete, provides the info needed for fingerprints if everything is complete, and was actually cordial.

  16. Not exactly on topic, but related to this, I've been wondering if NJ LEO's are receiving any special training on dealing with armed citizens, something they have not had to think much about in the past.
  17. I read elsewhere a very similar bill was proposed in 2013 and didn’t go anywhere. Hopefully the same thing happens with this one. It’s blatantly unconstitutional in multiple ways.

  19. All that the law requires is to "demonstrate thorough familiarity with the use and safe handling" of your firearm. It's up to the discretion of the instructor what he or she needs to see in order to have faith that you have met the requirement above. Since using a firearm for self defense so rarely happens at distances over 10 yards, I personally don't think it's necessary to shoot out to 25 yards. There's also no requirement in the law for a certain number of rounds, or even a specific score to pass. Since the HCQ1, HCQ2, and RPO courses of fire require a score of 80, I think everyone has adopted that as the standard, even though there really is no standard score for non-LEO qualifiers. What I do think is critical is safe handling. Don't muzzle your fingers, don't muzzle your neighbor, don't put your finger on the trigger until you're ready to fire, don't wave the gun around when clearing a malfunction. Getting that wrong should disqualify someone. But different instructors have different opinions about what the "right" course of fire should be.

    most of these racers seem that way. he was one of the first to not take all the credit for a good run(like everyone does now). the only nhra racers i don't much care for are steve torrence, cause he seems kinda temperamental, and erica enders for the same reason. favorite though is john force. but back to brown. he's always been down to earth andis good at what he does. and i think he's from jersey.
  21. I did mine ahead of time and they were waiting for me when I dropped off.
  22. That goes for all handgun rounds. The one shot stop is mostly a myth.
  23. @Blueskybob gets first dibs to purchase the rifle - once a price is listed and "taken" then it's gone unless that deal somehow falls through. @RUTGERS95 would get it if that happens. @SellingSomeThings - it's up to you to do your research on pricing before putting up the listing.
  24. Legit option in my opinion. Consistent with the way people do it in states that require notification. For me I'd rather avoid the drama that will almost certainly come with the initial traffic stops with permit holders. I fully expect it will turn into an event where multiple backup cars and a supervisor arrive and they all look for ANYTHING they can use to jam up the driver...
  25. Bought one of these kinda on a whim. See you, Space Cowboy....
  26. It's on the back That guy is either super strong, or a blueberry.
  27. I have had some people come to me for quals and within the first mag I could tell they were not sufficiently proficient to pass the qual. Some can't get even half their shots on the paper at 25 yards. Most have never used a holster before. It is amazing how many people feel the need to support the holster with their support hand while putting the gun into the holster and as a result sweep their support hand with the muzzle of loaded pistol - never a good thing. To their credit, all of these people I have worked with accept that they had no idea how any things they need to be aware of to be able to safely handle their gun and I have been providing classes for they to develop the knowledge that they weren't even aware that they were missing. I even have one guy, that after he has fired however many shots in a string, he takes his finger off the trigger and indexes it - no issue. But when he brings the gun down into a low ready position, his finger goes back inside the trigger guard - big issue. I think, for a lot of casual or new gun owners, there are several safety considerations that they just don't know about and develop bad habits while standing in a shooting port.

  30. Solid analysis... Im sure my XD-s 9mm with be the carry choice 99% of the time... I like the .44mag. .500, and/or D.E. idea! great shit hits the fan idea's.. Or a movie scene for Terminator 28... Got a high point.. carbine in .45 What an ugly piece of chit. But it shoots great and never misses a beat!
  31. For what it is worth, I have been carrying at home for years. OWB at first, but in the last year(ish) IWB. I have carried a Sig 1911, Sig P226, Glock 23 g4, Sig Pro 2022, and Ruger LC9S pro. If you have never carried a 1911, or metal framed pistol, or other fullsize gun, you may reconsider those choices fairly quickly once you do start. Not saying it is impossible, but large and/or heavy gets old quick. I have been going back and forth carrying the LC9S Pro and G23, and that LC9S disappears compared to the G23. Even the G23 feels significantly lighter and smaller than the P226, which is a featherweight compared to a 1911. Perhaps you can and would want to. I believe the obvious answer is to get a 8"(+) .44 mag or .500 S&W revolver, a 10" Desert Eagle (can share ammo if you go .44 Mag!), and a High Point (because those are just as heavy and thick as the other two suggestions.)
  32. Nope. Rack away. If racking the slide negatively impacts the dot, you need to get a better dot. I have a mix of Trijicon and Holosun optics on a handful of Glocks with a lot of rounds though them. I have had no issues.
