Glad to hear... wanted to go check it out but the schedule never lined up. Also only one showing here... weird. Would hope to see it streamed. Did you see it in 3d? I think it was avail, right?

Happy New Year! Thank you as always for being members as our community hits 10 years old in just a few short months! Question... What is the interest here for doing/adding auctions in addition to regular listings? ala GunBroker. Would have to take a look at the legal ramifications if any... however you would have the ability to set up auctions to list your guns/accessories. You determine start time, end time, starting price etc. Would be open to Premier members like the marketplace to list, no commissions, or regular members via one time fee (less than $5). It would not be a simple auction via posts, but an actual system that was designed by a polish developer for his motorcycle and suv communities. If there is commitment, I can see promoting these nationally via social media and groups, and I suppose this would get around Facebooks ban on gun sales in their marketplaces. Would also be interested if our Vendors have interest in listing as well.

On one hand, if the ballot measure passed, I think the people have spoken, or not enough gun people care. On the other hand... this is what Washington has become... it was never a bastion for gun rights anyway as it is really... Seattle... the new hippy yippie yuppie capital of the world for those that can't afford San Fran. Don't know anything about WA gun laws but assuming it defines assault rifle based on features? And isn't it 21 to buy a handgun in NJ now anyway? Wonder if with their laws legal to transfer or gift a gun to those under 21. Feel good legislation? Absolutely. Would it solve violence? Doubt it. A step at tearing up gun rights in the state? Absolutely. Realistically all it would do is make people move East... (from Washington).

Interesting, ages? Wondering if perhaps we are still young for them or because we are in rural area and chances for deer accidents a lot higher? Love the Doylestown area and it was the last place we looked before moving up here. Our favorite place was Washington’s crossing but over the last few years the prices really skyrocketed there and what we wanted was basically jersey prices. Then started going up to doylestown, perkasie, upper black Eddie but then you are kind of in no mans land where you are now an hour from Princeton and have to backtrack either way to go back... (wife was still working in Princeton, and my dad is still in the area) at the same time it was even further to north jersey and NYC where other family lives. so started looking in Lehigh Valley and there is so much “win” here. Close to both Rt 78, 80 and 22. Almost anything you need is avail locally including busses to NYC and Newark. At the same time we are 20 mins to Stroudsburg and within 30 mins can be skiing at all 3 area places, Camelback, Shawnee and Blue. The only downside we found so far is the lack of train service either to NYC or PHL.

It is a completely different world in the drug and gang infested big cities and the extremely friendly cities like Paraty and Ponte Grossa. Was an amazing two weeks I spent in Brazil when we went there as a group.

Will be great to see. While brazil is a very safe country generally, the big cities, sao Paolo and rio are exceptionally shady. Parts of rio are great but once you go through the tunnel or up the mountain... danger everywhere from scammers to violence. Will be good to see and follow this.

While prices in some places are almost jersey or higher, ie nice parts of north Florida, Miami, northern Virginia, taxes are generally lower. Easton area in parts is fairly high, like Nazareth, Forks, etc... if you go about 10 mins in either direction to rural areas you save a ton. we bought ours for $300k. Same house 10 mins closer to rt 78 is about $150k more. In jersey we would not be able to get the same land and house for under $700k in central jersey. If you are not tied into having to be near NYC or PHL or the jersey shore, there is a world of opportunities out there.

So that is interesting... We moved out to Northampton County, aka Easton, PA (area). Our auto insurance actually went up $10 with Geico... no accidents, clean records. What is cheaper? Property taxes! We live on almost 2 acres and a 2600 sf... our property taxes are high for PA but about half of what they would be in NJ... about $8k per year. Groceries: At grocery stores most things are a few cents cheaper... where you can really save however is by going 5 mins down the road and buying directly at the farm... generally more natural, fresh and really cheap. We live "in the country" so about 5 farms we regularly visit... and this year we will be much more self sufficient as our acres turn into a garden Insurance: most is cheaper here than in NJ, such as homeowners.... about $700 per year. Auto is about the same, medical should be a tad less. Gas:... is about $.15 to $.20 more expensive per gallon and why we generally fill up in Phillipsburg although there are exceptions and parts of Allentown are about jersey prices. Income Tax: Pa is a win for retirees with no personal state income tax (consult your tax professional, not tax advice). Overall, it is not even about the cost of living but what I would say quality of life... even though we are still 10 mins from Jersey... it is far less "yuppie" (and if you are in Central Jersey you know exactly what I mean). People are generally nicer, more laid back, friendlier. Tons of outdoors stuff to do and you just generally are glad to be there. Wish we moved out years ago.

If an anti gun business closes down, is it really a loss? Have not checked Delaware area forums but I am sure they lost a lot of gun guy and gal business with their support of anti gun legislation. The casual retail business was lost when Cabelas opened up. As Paul said, transfers are all profit and the margins on guns are exceptionally slim unless you are overpriced or catering to first time gun owners. Transfers are an opportunity for ffl to get a new body into the shop and sell high margin accessories and if they are smart... used guns.

Milwaukee system is good, and good warranty. The Rigid I tried were also quite good and great warranty.

Muzzle blast from AR! Hah! guess you have not had mosins Shot next to you. but should not shoot it indoors. Outside no big deal, just an ar with that little 223

This was also my experience with wideners.

Will add mine when I get home. By custom do we mean hand built by someone or even customization is good for this thread?

Graf is good. Natchez regularly runs promos to waive hazmat but their prices are higher. Best to find a reloaded near you and offer to split hazmat fee.

If you are buying enough... https://www.wideners.com

No... @Krdshrk

I was always thought you were #1.... but you are neck and neck there with someone else.

So Zeke... Congrats on reaching #4 on the NJGF PostWhore List... If we exclude Staff/Former staff... You are #2...

Based on the total employees, I am surprised it is that low.

Hey everyone. Sorry about that. Was trying to get Tapatalk working and brought down the house. Back up now.

Great size/package but shoots blah... bad recoil (vs others, though not as bad as LCP) and trigger is blah.

I have a bunch of them and they are good. =) for handguns in particular I like the standard velocity stuff. =)

Where are you located and how close to PA? Plenty of good places right across the border.

Mini mags are great. For accuracy I like standard velocity cci that also comes in those 100rd packs. Psa has mini mags 300 end for under $20 right now.
