What's your Favorite 9mm?
There'll also be an assortment of M&P's and at least 1 9mm XD. Among other things. Just walk up and down the line and try them all. Take notes, it's gonna get confusing, but in the best possible way.

Edison wants you to sign an Employer Release form - Kosher?
No offense taken, Dan. I'm aware of the consequences of doing nothing, but it's a matter of scale. Yeah, our rights have been trampled, but since the forms already have employer contact info required, it's just an inconvenient redundancy. Didn't I read somewhere here that some municipalities require a form filled out by everyone in the household granting permission for firearms documents. That's unacceptable and out of bounds, and I wouldn't stand for it, and I would risk denial to make that point if I were applying in one of those places, and would gladly become the test case under those circumstances. Of course it's an infringement, but the price to pay for fighting it may be too high. Denial, and then a lawyer to get it cleared up before the next application processes through. May not be worth the time and expense for something that's probably not malicious (I hope). Has there ever been a case where an application was denied and the denial withstood appeal simply on the opinion of an employer? I don't know, but if an employer is willing to possibly be called to testify under oath at an appeal hearing, maybe there's something there. Of course the laws are unfair and draconian, but there's a chance that sometimes they actually catch someone who maybe should be denied. As far as I know, we all of us here are reasonably stable and behave the same way in the rest of our lives as we do on the range. but what about someone who may be prone to violent outbursts, or shows up at work drunk, or stoned, or is an avowed and vocal (place something here) hater? Maybe denial isn't such a bad thing in such an instance. How many times have we read about some incident, and the first thing we all say is (everybody join in now) "I hope he wasn't a legal owner of that thing"? I'm not taking a side here, just looking at a possible reason for the additional bs. On the other hand, it may be just a ploy to make it harder to be approved. I don't know. K

What's to stop them from issuing a denial based on the incomplete paperwork? And then, the next time the application goes in, there's already a denial on the books. Best to just comply with their requirements and bite your tongue. Why become a test case??

shooting at peter to hit paul.
I can't speak for everyone, but I had good results with Taurus CS. 4 1/2 weeks dropoff to delivery, they fixed the problem, and I'm thrilled with the way the gun shoots now. No jamming or lockup and the thing is giving me great accuracy,. Of course, YMMV

This will piss you off.
And, we have to fight to protect and preserve the 2nd so we can always have the 1st. For everyone, even those who are insulting, inaccurate, and liars. They have rights, too. Even if they believe the rest of us don't.

THE HILLBILLY VASECTOMY
NAH - the hill billy is obviously white therefore any jokes directed at him are perfectly fine. :roll: The cues from the story make it obvious... He drinks beer from a can Even though they're cousins, they're actually married All 11 kids are with the same woman There, one more sin I'll need to be forgiven for next week. Stop tempting me. I only have limited will power, and I'm using it all up trying not to verbally abuse Matt for the next few days.

Arrrgh, me hearties!
Aye, me buckos... it's that time again. Tomorrow (9/19) is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. And it be a sad day for ye landlubbers who choose to ignore this noble day. It'll be the plank for ye, or strung from the yardarm for the crows to pluck out yer eyes. Aye, the wenches, too. So sharpen yer sabers and load yer pistols. Launch a broadside and give no quarter. A keg o' rum for me men, and a lusty whore for meself! (pirate accent required for effect) Have some fun with it. ken

CR Sunday 9/20
Thanks, Matt. If nobody else shows up to make orange dust with, we'll probably just hit the handgun and silo ranges. It doesn't look like the hunter groups are doing anything on either of those.

The Official NJGF Photo Thread!
There's a bunch more pink customs here: http://www.jimsgunsupply.com/DuraCoat/duracoatpictures.html#PINK%20GUNS!!!! What I don't understand about pink camo is, where the hell are you hiding that you'll be less visible with it? The Mermaid Parade? Christopher Street? San Francisco? Hunting unicorns and elves in some nightmare pink fairy tale forest? I don't get it. Pink Camo?? BTW, there are a bunch of nicely done guns there, but I really like this one: [attachment=0]USAMP.jpg[/attachment] I would think about something like that if I had a real beater that needed work. Crappy photo, but nice finish. ETA: Now I'm thinking about Godzilla. Hmmm...

CR Sunday 9/20
Anybody feeling like some range time this Sunday? I"ll probably get there sometime around noon or so (at least that's the plan now). Lynn wants to spend some time on the handgun range, and the whole place is closed the following weekend for a member's work weekend. K

The Official NJGF Photo Thread!
Even reading that made me chuckle. This looks okay. Actually, this looks a lot better than okay. A whole lot better. But this is horribly wrong... But yeah, if it gets more people into the sport, I don't care what color or shape it is. And, it'll still ruin your day if you get in it's way.

Where can I leagaly have my guns stored away from my home
Nice.

Not many
Doc, Just hang out a little while. There are quite a few hardcore milsurp guys here. The threads tend to get a bit spread out, but there's plenty of knowledge and passion for "wood and steel". Don't worry, you'll find enough company here to share with.

NJ Wish List?
I haven't reached collector status yet, so just a short list of things I'd like to own and shoot: CZ75 - because I'd like to try some action shooting, and I like it better than the Beretta A compact 9mm (M&P, CS9, Bersa, etc.) - because Lynn has hers, and I want mine 2 more revolvers - a .22 and possibly another .357 Another shotgun for trap (O/U or SxS) - just because they look so classy A modern bolt rifle (.223 or .308) - for the goblins when they come A modern .22 rifle - so I can retire my Dad's single shot antique to the safe That's pretty much it. Sorry, not too exciting.
