Let's keep politics out of this thread. =) Unless we move it there.

Moving to Florida.....
Where in FL did you move to? Here is a question, if you have a Florida CCW already.... you don't need to do anything but update your address, no?

Moving to Florida.....
Congrats, really. I hope to be out of this hellhole soon, and will be active if any of this crap passes, either by Christie signing or default passing by sitting on his desk. Where is that in relation to Tampa? We have a few NJGF members who moved there recently, and now you cannot drag them back. You guys too. Once you find a job, tough to leave. Dirt cheap taxes and cost of living..... free country for the most part, and 70% conservative local legislative branches.... sweet. Running the numbers, the money saved moving there, you can easily afford to fly to NJ 3 to 4 times a month. Because it is only a 2 hour flight from anywhere in Florida to anywhere in NJ... almost the same as moving to PA.

Tavor first shoot
Good to hear. When I get to the free country, will absolutely be buying one.

K31 Swiss
They are really nice WW2 era rifles. Very accurate and internally, almost all are in great condition. Did I say they were accurate? There is some extra history with them, as many will have the original troop tag, of the person who owned the rifle in the buttstock. I had not be as lucky to get those tags in either of the two I have, but many have. Its like a prize at the bottom of a cereal box. =) I have not seen any at the local stores, and the only one I did, was a transfer.

Firearms Purchase Poll
Does it force you to answer Question 2? Or can you leave it blank?

Firearms Purchase Poll
Also.... Discuss. =) My main things are... trying to determine a possible cause for increased nics time, etc... I am also interested in stockpiling of Ammo/Reloading supplies, however poll was limited to 3 questions.

Firearms Purchase Poll
Something that I was thinking about... and hopefully we can gather some data to show just how counter production gun laws are. Depending on the direction of this one, will do a more detailed poll.

Bought two guns today, NICS checks up to 17-21 day wait.
NJGF has kept records through surveys of the towns and how long FID's have been taking... all of that information that I gathered, was sent to NJ2AS. The CCW paperwork is not just for CCW.... but as part of a broader fight.

What are those gray bags shooters have on hip - in USPSA meets?
Solved. =)

So the answer to the original poster.... what you saw was either someone's dump pouch (which is not really likely), but more likely someone's gun cover for the STI/SVI. The only time I have seen a dump pouch used in 3 years or so of USPSA across the country was by a few revolver shooters.... and I can only count it on one hand. Where I can see using it.... is if it is a local match that you could care less about, and don't feel like cleaning your mags because there is mud everywhere..... however if you get into the spirit of USPSA.... you will not be retaining your empty magazines.

STI Spartan 9mm 5" - $617.33
Shipping is quite cheap too, just $5.99, and every NJGF Vendor is listed on their website as an FFL.... Plus they advertise on NJGF through a third party marketing system.... winning for everyone.

First Handgun, in my hands.
First perfect shooting with sights. Don't become dependent on laser... plus... it makes you look like a fool shooting with a laser at a range. =) Gun is extension of your hand, so learn to shoot instinctively.... don't rely on the laser. You can use to laser to confirm your sight picture... but don't get dependent on the laser. nice gun and welcome to the forum.

+3 Kittery Trading Post. Also, Cabelas- Import Albanian SKS
Also keep in mind, in Europe, the receiver may not be the control part.... For instance... here, on a handgun, the fame is the "firearm", in Europe, it is the slide/barrel. If she can legally acquire the guns there... keep them there.- What are those gray bags shooters have on hip - in USPSA meets?
Like Mike said earlier... USPSA is just a test of fundamental skills.... it is not "training to fight". Michael Jordan practiced his free throws, Tiger Woods practices his swing. USPSA.... a lot of it is a mental and visualizing what you are going to do. USPSA is NOT COMBAT or Practical Defensive shooting. It is a test of your shooting abilities.- What are those gray bags shooters have on hip - in USPSA meets?
No one serious will wear a mag dump or ammo dump bag. I think you may be thinking of a gun cover? as far as magazines dropping, get used to it. =) Any time a mag drops to the ground, you wipe it down, break it apart and clean them... that is for most 1911/2011 guns. Closed mags such as Glocks are a lot better, however I still get into the habit of cleaning every mag as soon as it drops to the ground. A malfunction that could of been avoided..... should be avoided. As far as dumping mags.... yes... unless you are simply shooting for fun and don't care about scores... you are wasting too much time to take the mag and put it back. If you want.... there is IDPA with Mag change with retention. =)- Import Albanian SKS
Your best bet is to keep them there or sell them there. You need an importer, an FFL and ATF approval. Then there is the legality of your wife acquiring the gun in Albania. The guns total are $1k... It will cost you that much to get them here. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD- Which car should I lease?
Correct. You can often get a better deal leasing even if you plan on buying it back at the end. Unfortunately. . Your accountant should look at the numbers before blindly and stupidly rejecting an idea. Secondly, for business owners, leasing is often th3 way to go for various reasons, if you need max writeoffs, e5c. We lease one , bought another. When manufacturers artificially jack up the residual rates, stupid not to lease. Japanese car brands, cause well.... they are made in America anyway now.... are great to lease.... ie honda accord, toyota....along with vw cars like passat. I saw a new passat d3al, 210 a month, 0 out of pocket. Because of incentives and low rates.- When do I get concerned about rust/moisture in the basement?
This is what I would recommend. Clean and oil them regularly, store in gun socks. My brother kept a Springfield XD in its original case (with the Styrofoam insert) and after a few months, gun started to rust inside and out. Fortunately, I was able to send it to Springfield and they refinished it under warranty. So for older guns, I would take all the precautions you can. Dehumidifier in basement, guns oiled cleaned, in silica protected gun socks, inspect regularly.- Which car should I lease?
You can probably get a proper full size car for the same money. Wifey has a Honda accord, 2012 where the lease payment was cheaper than a civic... yep. $245 a month, with 0 out of pocket... just tags. Out of those cars... Mazda's are more fun to drive, Ford Focus i have rented many times and it is a good car. - Up in Maine , any shops to stop in ?
