Not near you, but VERY good optician: https://www.drvoight.com/ He's Retired Air Force and he shoots.

Not so local to you, but I can recommend Greenspan Family Eyecare in Parsippany. I've gone in a couple of times with pistol slides, to have shooting glasses made, and they told me I wasn't the first to do it. Dr Greenspan did my bullseye glasses, which required an astigmatism correction to change the dot from a long-tail comet to a round, sharp circle. While I held up the dot sight, he did everything he could with the machine (phoropter, if you ever need to answer the question on Jeopardy), and then brought out an assortment of hand lenses that he held up in front of the machine to fine-tune additional corrections that were more granular than the machine could do. More recently, I thought it might be time for corrective lenses for iron sight shooting. So I headed in with another pistol slide, and Dr Lizzi ran through the corrections available on the machine while I held up the sights. She even managed to put a bullseye up on the screen as an aiming point. She also then pulled out a set of hand lenses to further refine the prescription for each eye...down to 1/8th of a unit. When I picked up the glasses, the lens guy said he'd never seen that done before. I pick out fairly large frames for shooting glasses, and specify safety glass thickness. They can also do tints. I've got pretty good coverage through VSP insurance, and I think the last visit + glasses only cost about $70.

F pm The last two quarters my taxes went up $375 per quarter. So by the time the $1500 anchor relief tax rebate comes in all of it will be applied to new property taxes.

As I recall Murphy once said the Bill of Rights was above his pay grade and the AG is paid less than Murphy so there you go..

Darn you! That's three google searches you made me do

Not too awfully bad that it took you 3 months to sell this ammo, I imagine not too many takers here in the PRNJ, where the primary eater of this caliber is banned by name. Congrats on selling it and satisfying SOMEONE's need!

I need to get a new prescription for my vision. I would like to use an optician who has a good understanding of what is needed for shooting. I would also like to explore LASIK and see if it is something that would help me. From what I am reading, LASIK can correct astigmatism and as I am getting into carry optics, I would really like to get rid of my astigmatism. I am in Hunterdon Co. but would be willing to travel for a good recommendation.

Wow! This is an eye-opening article. I used to travel a lot and was "prepped" by some of my fellow female travelers in the office (thankfully)... so I had my eyes open and was a reasonably savvy and cautious traveler from the get-go. That said, I was still surprised to read how some of these hotel staffers mentioned in this article simply handed out keycards to women's rooms without ascertaining that the man requesting it was actually listed as a room occupant!! I mean, they just literally handed the keycards over to predators. Now, you might think, well the woman should have used the interior safety latch once she was in the room (because, I admit, that was the first thought that I had, too)... but in one of these cases, the perpetrator actually convinced the hotel staff to disable the lock! Yeah. That's worthy of a rare quadruple: Unbelievable! He must have been quite the con artist. (In a couple of cases these women got falling down drunk... and damn, that's so risky for a woman under any circumstances, and especially when away on travel. Nonetheless, it doesn't excuse the attacks, of course, nor does it describe all of the cases). Some of these attacks sound just horrific... and resulted in big settlements against the hotels. Forewarned is forearmed. Pass the word to any women you know! Hotel sexual assaults on the rise as predators given access to women’s rooms in horrifying trend: law firm (msn.com)

Hmm that is the most believable denial ever!! /s

That's a headline you'd expect to begin with "Florida woman..."

Drugs...

R.I.P. I saw them a few times. Great band.

You want a beer? But it's 10 O'clock Scotch

If you haven't seen this episode of Four Boxes Diner, give it a look. I think this may have huge effect (in our favor) in the cases before Judge Bumb.

What changed me from closing one eye to both eyes open, was taking some tactical pistol classes..... Didnt even realize it, but when I was put under stress during the courses..... i completely forgot to close that one eye..... without thought.... I was shooting with both eyes open, which is exactly what would happen in a real life defense situation....

I 100% agree. Just load the ammo in your vehicle and drive out of this state (maintaining speed limit) and shake the dust off your feet when you leave. Don't let your Mom call the police, don't agree to drive back and meet the police somewhere in NJ, do not consent to search-these are a few of Aitken's mistakes.

Yeah - NFA quote from ATF... I guess you could use the Originally portion to cover that grey area. IANAL. I've been exploring other options as well, but with 6+ lawsuits against the ATF on this, I'm feeling optimistic that it'll get at least a TRO and then slapped down.

Has anyone in NJ got the required liability insurance and if so where did you get it?

Been there in the 70S lots of fun back then!! LOL.

If it comes to that, I'm going to take LSD. Never tried it, but, end of the world seems as good a time as any.

you noticed that too, huh?

I'm not starting a new thread for this. Here's how it goes down in Canada. You can read about their other twisted priorities too. Canadian man charged with second-degree murder after shooting armed home invader with legally owned gun - TheBlaze BTW, this is the same district as the teacher in my Gazoombagate thread. I cross posted it there.
