    So... a Glock 1911. lol Humn, wondering if there will be a point of differentiation between a 43X and a 19 or this 48... Considering the 43X seems a lot like a slightly slimmer 19.
  2. So how long does it run off of a battery? Would be interesting if there was a way to get one solar running.
  3. Such as every server request is accompanied by your IP address... and downloading torrents can get you emails letting you know you are breaking copyrights? I know, this is why you are supposed to run Proxies.... But in any case, I think most people really don't know how the internet works and actually believe they have annonymity. Just got the annual privacy notice from our ISP here and right there, a reminder... "We track your usage." Or how many devices in the household that automatically listen to everything you say through their microphones... And this is just the things that we know about. lol. Not even discussing the government spying.... The good news at least... too much data for them to process... for now.
  4. Or... are they the smart ones taking advantage of what the working class is willing to give them? Hah! made you think right? To put this in perspective... and add some thoughts to this. On one hand, take a shop like @remixer, @tj462nj, or @JT Custom Guns. Based on where they are located and their business... we would want the vast majority of their customers to go vote. People who already own guns and are buying more. On the flip side... Take ranges like GFH (West Patterson),, RTSP (union), and LongShot (Secaucus)... many of their customers are renters from the area who just want to go shoot for fun or for a party, etc... Yes, there is plenty of money and closet conservatives in North Jersey... but by in large... I would say the typical renter does not care about gun rights more than other issues, or merely voting for whom they are supposed to. Keep in mind, poor people are supposed to vote Democrat... Jews are supposed to vote Democrat apparently because they support Israel more, same for Latinos and african americans. Many more or encouraged to vote a certain way by their unions and generally the advertising they see in the area. The other aspect is... I think we have shitty candidates... how many have really reached out to gun owners to make gun rights a big issue? This is why in some ways I think Sweeney or another south jersey democrat would be a better option if we at least want to protect gun rights. Or if we want a chance of getting CCW, outside of Surpreme Court, Jeff Van Drew? The guy from Atlantic City who proposed a CCW license to be opened up for $400. Better than nothing and at least those guys shot a gun. But does anyone really think a Republican can win in Union, Essex, Camden or Mercer counties? Would a dealer run a NICS check on the buyer before they log the gun in the book? Or up to them? In my case, when I sold the gun, they did not run the NICS until the gun was in their possession and I was happy and had the money. Er... logistically... Aren't you only supposed to run NICS on a gun in your possession?
  5. I bring up Jersey City because it is the worst offender of gun rights in the state. Just do a search here for Jersey City. Jersey City, Newark, One of the Oranges... all take a year or so to get pistol permits. He is not an anti... just someone who believes they can be fully annonomys on the internet.
  6. Oh believe me, you are preaching to the choir... I just believe many many many gun owners in NEW JERSEY.... do not value gun rights more than they do "free shit." I certainly believe we should make gun owners aware of the issue but somehow focus on those to whom guns would actually mean something... So if anything, would say a typical USPSA, IDPA, 3 Gun, or AR shooters... To many hunters, as we had seen before... a gun is just a tool. We need to reach people who believe you should be able to do this.... in NJ.
  7. I think what we need to consider is this... Are gun rights the number one priority for most people, even those that may be shopping for guns? There are plenty of gun buyers who are just as likely to, if not more, vote for free college, sanctuary cities and legalized, er decriminalized weed. Furthermore... what percentage of gun owners who REALLY care about gun rights did not already go out and vote?
  8. Being wronged in that we are providing a resources with no way of being compensated for the resources you are using... (considering you are not a premier member and are blocking ads.) In any case, to answer the question you likely wanted to ask... places like Jersey City can take up to a year to process paperwork. Yes, the law is 30 days and it has been fought, however Jersey City gets away with it. Other towns may be better but generally it varies by their caseload, in most cases, more than 30 days, generally 2 to 3 months.
  9. This is a good question and I don't think there is a right or wrong. Let's say I am selling a gun... is it my responsibility that you can pass a background check? I look at it this way... We meet at FFL and we decide... "Do I want to sell it to you and do you want to buy it?" If "Yes" I get the money, and the gun is handed over to the FFL. It is at that point between you and the FFL. FFL gives me a receipt that they took it my gun. If "No" we part ways. If you agree to buy it, pay me for it, and then have an issue getting NICS, or need to wait for OGAM (30 days), that is between you and the FFL as far as what they want to charge. Generally, I would also expect that the NICS + transfer fee would come out from the buyers pocket and the sales price would reflect it. If you cannot pass a NICS, up to you whether you want to fight it, sell it to the FFL or put it on consignment, or repost it. to sell. Once the FFL has possession of the gun, it is akin to a new purchase if the seller wants to buy it back and would be incurring fees... yet another transaction and assuming the FFL already filled their bound book. Being the biggest gun community, serious question, do we want to set the standard that in F2F, any nics + transfer is on the buyer?
  10. Sold something to fund it... but got me what I wanted for a long long long long time... 16" Vepr 2 K as imported by Robinson Arms over 14 years ago... new, unfired. ... that unfired part was fixed a few days ago. =) Top one is my Vepr 223 (also a Robinson Arms import)... 4th one down between that UZI and the suppressed Beretta is my Vepr 2 in 7.62x39.
  11. There is no need to apologize. It does lead to a bigger issue.... if people, such as yourself do not want any information tracked... do we just make the community for premium members? As far as google analytics... and I take this as an opportunity to educate... we use Google Analytics to get live data as far as where members come from, how they are using the site, etc. I look at it to see how and where members come from and what community resources are popular, helpful etc. It has nothing to do with building your customer profile or anyone elses. The only two other are as I explained earlier Google Ads (so you see appropriate ads for gun companies, or ads for things you have been shopping for, instead of say Democrats or PETA) and Avantlink which is the affiliate network. No one else has your data and the site does not share user data with anyone, not even vendors, NRA, or anyone else. As far as would I jump off of a bridge? Actually, this is more like... "You are in a crowded theater and it is on fire, everyone is running for the doors.... do you stay there?" And stealing bread? Please explain... What is being stolen and how is anyone wronged by visiting the site? Do you not watch television? (Cable company tracks who watches what, when and how often.) ISP, as alluded to earlier knows exactly what you are posting, when how often, etc. Your cell phone listens 100% of the time to everything you say... unless you have one of those dumbphones without Siri, Google Assistant, etc. Or are you merely implying that I should spend hundreds to thousands a month to keep this running as charity and all of the people here should be at the beckon call? (while everyone else is entitled). If anyone, it would be the community is being wronged because you are looking for information without providing anything of value in return. (silly comment gets a ridiculous response)... Btw... as I am sure you are aware... more and more people use ad blockers. The result of which, sites end up losing money and are forced to do one of a few things... 1. Go paying member only. The community becomes much smaller. 2. Put in A LOT more ads and go outside of Google Adsense to plaster less appropriate ads... ad networks which show ads and install malware or porn. Community goes to crap. 3. Sell out to a large network like Vertical Scope... a liberal group who owns the vast majority of the forums, and gun forums in particular. Community goes to crap. or... 4. Sometime in the future we restrict access to the site to guests and possibly members who use ad blockers. Don't want to, but unless the finances balance out may have to... meaning folks like yourself would not have access to the site.
  12. Your ISP has data on everything that goes through your cable modem. Sites like these exist in one of two ways... advertising or memberships. Memberships do not cover it all, not nearly there, and as such we rely on advertising, predominantly seen by regular members and guests. Avant link is for affiliate marketing, so if you do shop through one of our banner ads, the site gets a small percentage, again, does not cost you anything. As far as the tinfoil comment... it was rather your first two posts... first, warning users that the site uses cookies as 99.99999% of sites out there do, and your second post was a response that you do not want to state what town you live in when a knowledgeable member was willing to help, after asking for information which was readily available and pinned to the top of the section where you posted your post.
  13. ... And this is what you are looking for... It is a pinned topic under Current Gun Law Discussion
  14. People here are generally more helpful when brand new users are a tad less... "tinfoily". And just to be up front... we have PLENTY of LEO from various departments and municipalities as members on the forum. They are awesome people and great gun owners.
  15. welcome to the forum? Just do a search for your town and see what comes up. Yes, it is useful however no, it varies by each town and in many cases is very different for person to person. About those "Trackers".... yes, every website uses some sort of cookies... you know... this way it recognizes you on your computer when you login again, along with for appropriate ads (as that is how the site is supported). No, your information is not sold and we do not know what porn you are watching.
  16. Thanks. Saw this on your site. That Para looks pretty interesting. Will be watching it.
  17. There is nothing there yet that prevents it AFAIK... at least not regulated out yet. They are a far better solution than bump stocks, much more useable too. Would easily pick up a few to have... until eventually they are regulated...
  18. Maksim replied to Dawgs's topic in AR Discussion
    Duh, just re-read, you are right on. If the gun no longer accepts a detachable mag... no longer evil gun.
  19. I get emails from Davidson's and other distributors. This week they are having a special on HK P30L in 40 S&W for $469. Assume + shipping + dealer markup. Also seems like a deal? on M9A3. Also, the Walther Creed is $249. This was actually a really nice gun when I got to play with it at Shot Show. Surely better than the lower end Smiths, etc.
  20. Maksim replied to Dawgs's topic in AR Discussion
    So generally, the fixed mags/button bullets have not been popular in NJ as generally shooters would keep the detachable magazine and instead give up either the telescoping stocks or flash hiders. These fixed mags are now "part of the gun" and does free up an evil feature, allowing you to have either a flash hider, threaded barrel or a telescoping stock. In states like NY and CA it gets around Assault Weapon laws. Practically, there is no reason for these in NJ and as someone else mentioned, for a home defense/zombies come situation I would rather have the ability to quick change mags. Although... popping the rear pin on the upper and using stripper clips would be fairly fast too.
  21. What else are Jews to do? Christmas music followed by either Chinese or Pizza... may even see a movie. (although our Goyem neighbors invited us over, Anastasia baked them bread.)
