Is it legal for a town to ask for an interview, my friend was just btichng that a Weekwaken cop cancelled his interview, I didnt know they could be required.

Yup, and there's precedent for it with the silly "personalized" handgun law that's already on the books. Once one makes it to market, everything else becomes illegal. It's the worst kind of do-nothing, pandering legislation imagineable. Kinda like saying "Once we find a unicorn, all horses will be outlawed." No existing manufacturer will want to make such a thing knowing that the rest of it's catalog becomes obsolete in this market. Imagine the uproar the 1st time a woman gets raped/murdered because she pointed her husbands gun in her home and it didnt go boom. Actually this is NJ, there wont be any uproar from the sheep.

That is such BS. I am glad I read this when I did, we have family coming from Italy this week and were going to take them to Six Flags. Oh well, Dorney Park here we come. I wonder if they would say anything about an NRA shirt?

I would love to delay the Sotomayor hearing and get a vote on it before she takes a seat (pipe dream) but I dont think she will change the makeup of the court and we should wein at least 5-4. I honestly think its such an easy issue (from a legal standpoint) I cant believe this hasnt been done already and that anyone except an ultra lefty would vote against it.

What does it mean to us. Will the NRA come in and file any suits. I imagine 1 gun a month is the 1st challenged and I dont know if its a layup. Heller gave us the right to bear arms but said a state can limit it. What about ccw? Since the state is overly zealous about denying people the right is there a case there? I am a lawyer and I dont know these answers. I just wanted to know if anyone thought anything would change?

I was at the range last week and I was explaining how stupid microstamping is. What would stop a criminal (and yes they would be this smart) from shooting off a few rounds and picking up all the casings on the floor, go commit a crime and then scatter 30 different ones all over the crime scene and pick his own up. The cops would probably be able to figure out which range and hope for a security tape, but what if the perp was smart enough to wait a few months. Also, the stamp can easily be filed off on his weapon leaving a blank at the scene. Its bad law designed to increase the price of shooting and an incremental step to banning. Just like Barney Frank said that the govt option plan is a step to single payer govt healthcare.

Dicks in East Hanover didnt have any pistol ammo.

If you guys ever do get together let me know, Parsippany here so Fairfield is very close.

Just picked up 135 at Ramsey for $12 so I think I have plenty for anyone that cant pick them up. Something tells me missing 135 times would depress me considerably. I'm going to stop by Dicks and get some ammo.

I guess I figure I am not unloading 5 shots in rapid succession unless he is the Flash and I am the worst shot in the state, as long as i have the shells conveniently located I would have time to reload every few shots or pull the HK out. I have seen some really good discusssions on some forums (firingline?) talking about home defense planning and I assume most guys coming in are armed with either handguns or shotguns and after securing your family you should have a good defensive position to defend yourself until the cops come.

i am in ramsey so i am going to check them out here

Who carries clay pigeons in North Jersey?

Nice setup. I was originally getting the tac express which holds 8 and was going to extend mine, but cant imagine a home defnse situation where I need 8 shots unless the it really hit the fan. Its amazing how many choices you have for lights.

I'll second that, if I can find a decent one for 800 I would be all over it. (and would have to hide it from my wife)

And I was worried I wouldnt use the 870 enough. Thanks for the advice will watch the video after work and pick up the pad, really looking forward to it.

Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes. Bringing the wife Sunday, hopefully get her more interested.

I was actually thinking of joining on Aug. 2nd. Coincidentally, I just picked up a shotgun 2 days ago, nothing fancy, Remington 870. I was going to start looking if they offered any classes in the area on the proper use.

So after a membership you can use it as often as you want? Trying to decide whether the extra 20 min trek is worth it.

I thought it would be better in person. No luck. Nothing in 9mm.

I dont know what town it was but it was just south of Port Jervis off RT 84 in PA, I was literally 2 minutes from the NY border. I have been stopping at Walmarts in PA and VA when I was there and this is the 1st time I have gotten lucky.

I think it was $390, may have been $370. Thanks for the input. Ghost ring sites it is and a flashlight it is. Its funny I had a great handgun trainer and as soon as I took the shotgun home, I felt much more comfortable with it in the home for some reason. Its definitely for home defense. I was going to head up to the range an get used to it and see if their are NRA classes on proper use.

I went to buy the Express Tactical 870 at Cabelas and their computers were down so I walked out empty handed, undaunted I went to the Bullet Hole the next day and picked up a plain Remington 870 and figured I would add my own toys so I can mix and match depending on how I feel. -I like the side saddle for extra shells, -I was going to get the pistol grip but I saw a collapsible stock that retracts over the top like the Franchi, anyone have any experience with it? -Any advice for new sights?

I think we should all know to buy as many as possible when available. I was in a Walmart in PA today and was looking for 9mm ammo and I heard the clerk on the phone say we have a few boxes of federal 9mm. Lo and behold it looked like 4 boxes of 50 rounds for $8 a box, at 1st I said give me two boxes (thinking i would be nice to the next guy) and when I thought about it I said screw it give me the last 2 and he then pulled out another box. I would have kicked myself in the ass if I didnt buy all 5. Esp after the nightmare I had with the Fiocchi ammo at the Bullet Hole.
