  1. It will be the last day, just like every 2a case before it. Every article not reporting the decision is just click bait.
  2. Nationally, CCW is already favorable. It's a handful of states that are problematic. They don't need to be that specific. Simply state it shall not be discretionary, and any disqualifying parameters must be objective, and exceptional. Or better yet state that anyone who is not disqualified from owning a firearm (keep) shall not be forbidden by a permitting process form carrying it (bear). Slap that on top of strict scrutiny, and NJ can fuck around, but they will find out in court.
  3. There are a number of options, not a lot of them great. Probably the most likely to be unable to be avoided or gamed forever would be a lawsuit for damages. Escalated to the circuit it would leave nj jurisdiction. Then you could go straight to the bank to have assets seized. There is also, technically, a path to the insurrection act, commandeering the national guard, and taking over the situation if a pro 2a president is in charge that wants to make ny or nj eat shit hard. Less hard would be using the rico act against anyone involved with violating the ruling and deprivation of rights.
  4. I mean we tried to have that here and they banned it, so... No.
  5. Everything is falling, so even if it’s in the red, anything owned that’s in the green for the individual still looks good right now. I think the banks are getting out. I think that takes it to about $8-9k. The question is can the various exchanges stay in the business of being exchanges. Basically can the venture capitalist money stay in and keep the market a sizable market. I don’t think they all can, but I’m less informed to be able to suggest none can. So the question there is will you have people trying to be market makers or just the exploitative money changers? If they all get out, it’s essentially going to zero. If one assumes it remains a market and that market is more or less fair and it’s a commodity subject to inflationary pressures, I’m guessing the floor is around $1200. But i think that is a big assumption. There’s going to be motivation for the least regulated exchange to get cut throat and try to screw the more regulated exchanges. And that could eliminate it from being a viable market. At that point it is zero unless you can find someone who wants it yourself. It’s a messed up market. The pretense is that it is a currency. But if it wasand a loaf of bread cost you one bitcoin one day and a few years later it cost you 40,000 Bitcoin you wouldn’t be celebrating, you’d be tearing it like Zimbabwean dollars. If it’s a commodity it should retain worth. If it’s a currency, this is the phase where it ram up so much nobody will touch it and even the entity printing it up won’t accept it.
  6. Yes they are super backed up and scheduled decisions for Monday and Wednesday this week. There are suggestions next week will be the same.
  7. I mean, technically, everything they decide is about a constitutional right. That's kind of the job. The cases that take less arguing and revision get done sooner. Thus the more contentious stuff tends to be at the end as well as the more complex stuff.
  8. Click bait. nobody knows. What we do know it they have a ton of backlog and have scheduled both Monday and Wednesday this week. Presumably we will see that continue to the end of the session. But claiming the big ones are dropping next gets clicks, so clicks they will farm. i will still bet money it’s nysrpa it’s last day of the session.
  9. Look at how fast crypto went up. It can go down even faster. Bitcoin was about $500 before the big money got into it to pump it up and start taking a cut in converting it to cash and cash into crypto. Then the real big money realized they can manipulate it like the metals market and pfof. Pump it and front run the pump, dump it and front run the slide, and take a percent on every conversion. But they knew the piper was going to have to be paid overall, so they have been trying to cash out of things at peak so they can add to the inevitable carnage, get it over with, and buy back in at record lows. Without them playing games, it was $500. If retail holds it won’t be that low, but it will be a small fraction of the peak.
  10. It has nothing to do with boundaries. Once fixed I was back in the very same book. My family residing at the same address was in the book. The police not doing anything wasn’t theoretical, they were told and literally refused to do anything. As for contacting the gop etc. this was my first encounter with the system being shit. I have a lot better understanding of how things work now. I still doubt they would have done anything given it was a single individual and i didn’t have a name. The oil workers could have provided a name at the time, but as stated they didn’t give a shit.
  11. Just as a data point, I have had no issues lighting off m193 with CMC drop ins, the ALG-act with JP springs, my giessele SD3G, the JP kit that needs fitting, or my adjustable triggertech. At this point, most of the triggers work fine for military primers. There will be more issue if you want them to operate pistol caliber uppers and rimfire uppers. Both of those are blowback, and induce more drag on the hammer which can negatively impact reset.
  12. Because they are so behind, we are getting rulings on Monday and Wednesday.
  13. The first time? Pointed it out to the poll workers and asked them if they were actually going to let her vote. The answer was yes. There's not much else to be done. Cops won't do anything about it, and not having identifying info means nobody will take it seriously if you complain about it. To make it more fun, they were not, in fact going to let me vote. Despite having been registered to vote since high school, and voting in every election since, I had been removed from the roles and was not in the book. So they forced me to cast a provisional ballot, which is seldom if ever counted. Except when I went to the county clerk's office to sort it out they were of the opinion I was actually registered and on the roles. Thus began a three year saga of getting my voting rights back. This was in Middlesex county by the way, and occurred in the first election after they went to bar codes. I'm beyond not shocked their FOIA/OPRA request came up with lots of fucky goings on there. During that time I hassled a lot of people and did a lot of digging on how things work. The upshot of it is that the state isn't interested in fixing the problem, even if you approach things as a systemic process issue rather than corruption. And a chunk of this stuff IS first and foremost a process issue, although they very much will try to keep the process a secret. At the most basic level, if you have been registered to vote, and have moved, you can likely just go to your old polling place and vote again. If you changed counties when you moved, the odds of that goes up. The roles simply aren't maintained well, if at all, and they certainly aren't justified across the state as they should be. Is this a conspiracy? Probably not. However, it is exploitable, and those who are likely to want to exploit it are in a position to influence if anyone ever actually makes the effort to clean up the roles. Was it designed to be exploitable? Who knows. It's totally feasible it was designed by people who were shitty at their job prior to even dated IT tools that would make such things trivial. On top of that, the people who could be whistle blowers are the people who are very easily blamed, since what should be happening is actually supposed to be happening. The primary concern of the non partisan bureaucrat is to affirm that they are doing an excellent job and to do that with the least effort made. This is state and federal. They do not want to listen to you unless you have something so well documented and concrete, that their concern shifts from appearing competent and effective to distancing themselves from the guaranteed explosion of shit. The closest I was able to make that happen was getting a clerk who had just told me everything was fine and there was nothing they could do to then turn around and actually fix my problem after showing them I had a stack of documentation that things were in fact not fine and working. Media does not want to listen to you unless you have done all the homework and possibly not even then if they hold differing political views than those people affected. They certainly aren't interested in digging into suspicious looking stuff to find out if it is incompetence and systemic systems breakdown or corruption. I had my well documented situation, which nobody wanted to hear about. I eventually found three other people who had the same issue. That's still too small for anyone to care about. This predated social media, so there was no place to go make a stink and find more people to make that number bigger. Hell, it barely overlapped with OPRA existing in NJ. I doubt I'd find the same suspicious stuff now as the vote by mail laws would have negated the need for that mechanism. And I would suggest fucky stuff is still going on in middlesex. Last election, I had to show ID to vote. Why? The only legal reason to require ID to vote is if my information in the book is incomplete, or I failed to provide acceptable ID when I registered to vote (you'd think that would be handled by just saying no, come back with ID, but hey.... I'm sure the process suits someone's agenda). The thing is... anything that legitimately requires you to show id should force you to cast a provisional ballot in NJ. No provisional ballot. It was done to tons of people. You could prove it 100%. It'd just be answered with... well the poll workers are all temps they misunderstood the training. Hell they weren't even accepting the very broad and lax set of items that would count as ID. They were insisting on state issued picture id after initially requesting DL. So what do YOU do about it? And what are your grand ideas for what I should be doing about it?
  14. It will if the GOP toes the line. I mean the DNC keeps frothing at the mouth to remove it, but the last weeks polling is... bad for them is not a sufficient description. And that is not including the fact that one of the polls came up 60% against a new AWB. Biden approval is at record lows. Democrat approval is at low. They are looking at numbers that if they keep up even for just most of the time between now and midterms means that the largest political party will be independents and the second largest will be the GOP. Then there was the poll telling them they dropped below 50% approval among black voters and that their approval is shit amongst young voters and young male voters in particular. The only thing going for them is the change in voting maps over the last year and the fact that a lot of the challenge races are empty seats rather than incumbents who were directly involved in the current shit show. But they like accusing the GOP of being evil and committing fraud when they adopt the tactics of the DNC. What they really mean is they are scared that the lead time has shrunk form half a decade to months, and that the GOP may be more effective at it. Removal of the filibuster would be handing the GOP a blank check.
  15. You don't say. I've witnessed people blatantly bragging about voting multiple times in multiple districts AT the polling place. Nobody does anything, and it's not clear there is anything they could do. As far as I can tell it would require proactive maintenance and policing prior to the day of.
  16. Keep in mind there are cases at scotus being held. They are likely waiting on this decision. If that’s the case they will be remanded to the circuit court and even though we have perhaps the worse circuit in the country in terms of following the previous rulings (yeah the 9th wins by volume, but ours literally quote the dissent in heller as if it was the ruling), they have had new appointments since then and i wouldn’t be surprised if the demand back to them came with a fuck around and find out love note from Thomas. NJ may be scrambling more and sooner than they think.
  17. He’s using a self resetting laser trainer. I can attest the trigger pulls add up fast when you aren’t paying for any ammo.
  18. If it’s good enough for uncle sam it’s good enough for you!!! Fuck that noise. Shit triggers are good for learning techniques to deal with shit triggers and that’s about it. With the milspec triggers you can get a nice broken in one that was pretty nice and is a pretty smooth 4.5lb. Or you can get something that feels like it’s made of gravel and is closer to 12. I’ve gone through the litter more than a few times and the odds of getting the good one is basically zero. My experience is you get something about 7-8lbs and fairly rough. Which sucks. So what to get. If you don’t have a big budget or don’t know what you like and want to have something around as you buy and sell the expensive ones until you find just right, there’s the alg coated trigger with the jp springs as mentioned in the thread. It’s basically a worked mil spec trigger without having to pay someone to do the work. This is what I have in my “take a noob to the range” ar. Personally I would not buy the jp trigger. At this point the level of diy to get it set up is just unnecessary with the drop in kits. As on tolerance stacking and the peak performance may not be there with both safety and reliability. And frankly pound for pound of pull, the drop in modules go lower without being as easy to ad. To get the lighter pulls you are dialing out seat engagement. I’ve done a few of them and continue to not like them personally, but more importantly is the effort to set them up and that for the work I’ve gotten ~3.75lb-5lb when set up to pass my standard safety check. I haven’t met their drop in module. If you want good and not a drop in module buy geissele. After a bunch of use my sd3g pulls about 2.25lb. Their two stage isn’t bad either. Zero dicking around with adjustments, and I’ve run them in multiple lowers with very similar results. If you want a 2stage, the hiperfire hipertouch is pretty much the best. You can go really light with really reliable ignition and a positive reset. You can catch some really good sales on these to make them pretty competitive price wise too. If you want single stage, the top of the line elftman trigger is it. Get out your wallet. Pretty much everything they make is made well, but their budget triggers aren’t good relative value to the competition. Then there’s the 1.5 stage/1911 style triggers. They usually have a very short, very light first stage. Then a light second stage. The ar gold trigger was the first of there and is good. I don’t like the very narrow trigger, and it’s a bit floppy feeling from a resting position. But it’s a good trigger and probably one of the better ones for precision shooting imo. Then there’s my personal favorite. Triggertech. Of any ar trigger, this one has the most positive wall of any trigger I’ve ever met. There’s short, very light take up, a positive wall, and a glass rod break. It also has a positive reset. I’ve got the adjustable that goes down to 2.5lb according to the label, but it’s really more like 2.75 in my gun. I love them, and if you are of the light is dangerous crowd, it adjusts up to 5lb. You will not find a nicer feeling 5lb trigger imo. That being said there is now the triggertech Diamond ar trigger. It goes down to 1.5lb, and i don’t think I’ve seen a drop in that will be lower. The timer calvin is also 1.5. That being said i have not met one in person. However I’ve seen a lot of complaints of it being kind of mushy and having a weak reset. If you need the lightest for an ar you want to shoot like a precision bolt gun, the timney Calvin is in theory it. If you have a budget, the cheap rise armament drop in isn’t too bad, and occasionally I’ll see the larue 2 stage is pretty regularly available at $99 and is a solid implementation of an old school national match 2 stage design. We honestly have more really good ar triggers than we had options for stripped lowers when i started building ars in 2001. The choice for decent drop ins is just insane now.
  19. Just a place to start research, but i has some interactions with someone not in nj that won like you did for something like $3k. It wasn’t in nj, but similar relief may be possible here. But the guy has no accessible accounts but did own multiple businesses. He was able to have the office furniture and fixtures seized and auctioned off. It was mostly out of spite and he spent about $5k getting his $3k, but about $25,000 of stuff was auctioned off to get him that $3k. It’s been quite a while and I’m fuzzy on the details, but I’d start with whatever you can put a lien on.
  20. The last two in our favor were on the last day. It’s always the last day. It’s so they can leave town and not have to listen to people’s shit in dc.
  21. It will be on the last possible day. There is zero reason to believe otherwise and stop listening to the click farmers that suggest otherwise. Every 2a case has been, not to mention that they have the biggest backlog since the 1950s. It’s not going to be alone, most (I suspect all) of the remaining rulings are going to be the last day.
  22. Anything will do to cover the end of the barrel. absolute misses effective comp is the sjc titan. my personal favorite is the venom defense viper. If you catch a sale it can be as cheap as $12.95. It’s reasonably effective, not super loud, looks pretty nice, and important for nj, you can still reach the crown to clean it. Anything with a high pressure chamber will build up deposits, and at least in one instance for me started negatively affecting accuracy.
  23. Predatory credit cards are super easy to get. That’s why lots of colleges have banned them from soliciting on campus. They specifically target that age group.
  24. He put them on a credit card, and you are cheap. That’s pretty much the explanation for that bit.
  25. THere's no could about it. it could be any day they issue orders, and has to be by the last day of the session which is july 17th.
