Hey From Butler
Welcome from Sussex County. There seem to be a disproportionate number of photographers among the members here. I think we're at 4 or 5 now. Maybe we all need to get together and do some shooting/shooting as a group. There seems to be a shortage of good shooting sports images out there. Maybe a targeted stock collection? Moving car shots are tough. Fun to do, and really nice when they work, but tough. Nice images... what kind of rig are you using, underbody or off the hood? Either way, nicely done. Good. Another Canon guy.

What's in a name??
Okay, I had a thought. I know that we call those who legally trade and sell firearms "gun dealers", but I think it's time for a new name for that particular business. After all, those who illegally sell deadly drugs to school children are "drug dealers", and "gun dealer" sounds too much like the guy selling guns to 'bangers out of the trunk of his car in Camden. Let's come up with something less threatening, even if we just use it among ourselves on the site. Bad Name______________________________________Good Name drug dealer_________________________________________Pharmacist gun dealer_______________________________________Firearms Purveyor (sorry, I know it sucks)

Evan Nappen On One Handgun A Month

One gun a month law much worse than I thought
Not a damn thing. The people who voted against it will continue to fight the good fight, but the ones who voted for it (the majority) will happily see it through as is. Corzine asked for it to be sent for a vote, so he's not going to change it unless he gets either promises or concessions from it's detractors. It will become a political football, and in the end it will stand as is. Once enacted, it may not stand up to judicial scrutiny, but that won't happen before the damage is irreparable.

Unfortunately, the attendant was ill equipped to deal with the attacker. he had no firearm, and his potato slicer permit application has been tied up pending Federal investigation into allegations by his references regarding prior root vegetable crimes he committed as a youth.

FN Five-seveN - any opinions?
I've been reading that it's spooky accurate, even out past "standard" handgun ranges. It looks interesting. I don't consider myself a "collector" and I wouldn't want to own anything I wouldn't shoot, but this looks unique enough that I may keep it in mind if I ever have a grand to drop on a single new toy that isn't photo equipment.

New Jersey Senate to Vote on One-Gun-A-Month Tomorrow
I don't understand... does that mean that as a dealer, you can only buy 1 gun of a particular model directly from a manufacturer no more than once a month? Or in total from a single manufacturer? Or in total from all manufacturers? What about from wholesalers? I'm very puzzled. K

Nope, You can only get one permit a month because someone else has high cholesterol and heart problems.

If the shops have no inventory, prospective buyers can't touch and hold the guns to decide what they like. For anyone who knows exactly what they want, order and wait is just fine, but it will be impossible for first time buyers to comparison shop, and impulse sales at the counter will just cease to exist. Also, shops will be reluctant to take in used firearms on consignment because the volume may have dropped so significantly that used weapon sales (with lower margins than new ones) will no longer have enough bottom line to support the space they occupy in the counter. No more trading up. There are all sorts of ugly scenarios that can come of this wrongheaded legislation.

According to Jersey City police, hollow points are illegal
They're confusing their terminology. 350 rounds is a "cache" of ammo. 350 rounds of HP is a "cache of illegal and deadly cop killer bullets". 5 firearms or more is an "arsenal", and if there's anything black in there it's an "arsenal of military assault weapons" and the owner is automatically guilty of AWB violations. I wish they would get it right. It confuses me when their descriptions are wrong. K

New Jersey Senate to Vote on One-Gun-A-Month Tomorrow
I normally don't post behind my own post, but I just had an epiphany. The one gun a month isn't designed to have any great effect on gun purchasers. Yeah, it makes an already inconvenient and convoluted process even more so, but the greatest effect will be on the gun sellers. It's going to reduce their sales volume dramatically, maybe to the point where it's no longer profitable to maintain any sort of substantial inventory, or even to drive them out of business. It eliminates multiple and impulse sales at the counter, and makes it much more difficult to justify a large inventory. It could drive the sellers out of business. Fewer gun shops, fewer sales. Fewer sales, fewer shops. "And then there were none" BRILLIANT!! Machiavellian bas**rds. K

Sure you can. Have the set sent to an FFL and they'll release them to you one per month. After all, we're just children who have to get permission to eat snacks, and then have our candy doled out to us lest we ruin our appetite before dinner. What a friggin' crock of shiite. I'm not happy this morning. K Edit to add:
