Hmm, perhaps a large resident of Chatham was aware of the situation.

:violence-torch: ! Ok, Maks, I hope you are calmer Wed nite if you show up at BA j/k.. FWIW, its supposed to be windy tomorrow, but with the rain, there shouldn't be any dust at Range 14. I will also add to Maks screed, that this too shall pass. The last couple months have not been kind to the NJ firearms community in general. There are other ranges/clubs//shops that have had incidents/issues since 1 Jan. (and before) and they are dealing with them as they see fit. I will be at BA Weds 28th, nite time, I don't get many chances to shoot, so I am not changing anytime soon--

OK, enough of the angst already, the palace is shut down one day a week for awhile. The earth will still turn, and my flabby shooting skills are getting more atrophied by the minute. I will stop down Wed nite, probably sometime after 8PM,will be a short one for me, probably quick round of Sig & RIA

I live in Jax and went to that show last year, in the fall, maybe Sept/Oct, there was ammo for sale, .30-06 HXP bagged in ziplocs, I think, and some other stuff. Lots of memorabilia and paraphenalia. There were guns you could look at but not buy on premise, you had to go back and get them later from the sellers location. Perhaps as an FFL you were able to buy them, but IIRC, the public was not. Perhaps there were guns and ammo for sale at this one on premise, or there were different vendors this time, I dunno. Maybe I will stop by the next one to see if things have improved.

Were there any actual guns there? I went to that one once, it was a lot of WW2 and other military stuff, knives and whatnot. But since this is NJ no guns were for sale at the show. IIRC someone did have some (overpriced) M1s and Mausers that you could look at--

Probably the lowest point of the Carter Admin, and for the country, at that time, I thought. http://thirdwavedave.blogspot.com/2008/ ... ew-he.html

Is it me or does the green one look like it has huge jugs? :twisted:

Replied in another thread, Wed is OK for me, personally. I dunno all the details on the BA Tues closure, but hope its a temp thing. After the last 2 or so years, I am sure most shop owners in NJ can use a break.

Come to my street for some turkey hunting! Chased a couple of birds away with the dog, was hoping she'd catch one and I could prevail upon my wife to de-feather and gut it :shock: Ah well,I can try & sneak up on one with a baseball bat, anyways--

No, nothing with C&R, the whole issue is apparently the NJAG and NJSP opinion now is that all firearms sales must be FtF with SOMEONE, and so since the CMP ships from out of state, they are supposed to ship to FFL now, so the FFL can see your NJFPID in person or something like that. I sent my NJFPID copy front and back when I did the paperwork for my M1. That was my way of Exhibiting required eligibility perthe NJ law. Maybe the AG & NJSP guys are peeing their panties with fear, -or a recent seizure of guns had a bunch of CMP stuff in there, who knows.

I do uncase in the port, handguns are a no brainer, open the actions up and leave'em on the table, then put the case on the back table. Most often I see rifles uncased at the back table. I don't shoot rifle at BA, except on one or two occasions and uncased in the port, moved the rifle to the rack at the back, muzzle up, after locking the action open and engaging safety. I do agree that BA RSOs need to show the flag and get more inquisitive inside more often, if only to get across the message that no sloppiness will be tolerated. The latest ND incident was preventable ( I wasnt there either, but it seems to me an error in judgement, not intentionally, really, but a loaded (and cocked?) very heavy firearm was set down on those weak-ass port shelves and dropped to the floor.

Holy Craparella! Another lesson & reminder---the hard way, hope the guy who was hit is Ok--

Huh? Is the article on line, john?

:confusion-confused: :obscene-smokingjoint:

I would expect to hear something from the district via mail/email or phone message call sometime today. After that, they will likely issue a statement to the press. I doubt the District or its lawyers were available to deal with it this weekend, so everybody should STFU and GBTW. I am certain he is not in a classroom, or at school today.

In Boston for wife running the Marathon--good luck & have fun!

Yeah, I was just gonna post that, also on the APP web page a grade school teacher in my town was charged with lewdness at the GSP Monmouth rest area. The Brick CO is of interest because it shows how hollowpoints can become an extra charge in a crime. And yet another bad apple in the LEO community that was authorized to carry a firearm.

There have been several HUGE turkeys at Dix lately, mostly in the more remote areas in the north. There was a large flock for several years in the vicinity of Range 15, it was very difficult to avoid running them over sometimes

I predict next that all online vendors of ammo will stop shipping any and all ammo to NJ after they get letters from the NJAG/NJSP. It's coming, better stock up. I will bet that this happens in the next 18 months. If it does not, I will donate $100 to NJGF, in addition to any other contributions I may make. Mark it down, Maks, that's how sure I am that things will get worse in NJ. Christie is simply another lying politician, albeit fatter than most. And Ms. Dow is yet another in a long line of NJ AGs that will make criminals of NJ citizens whilst seeing no evildoing by her political masters.

I did find an SU-16CA, and am happy with it so far. I put a Levang comp on it, and a cheap scope, which I have returned for a replacement. I will see how that works out, if it breaks again I will spend more for a better piece of glass. The rifle works well, takes AR mags I bought. Easy to disassemble and clean. Light, low recoil, lighter than my 10/22 actually, and shorter . The bipod-front handguard thing is something of novelty item,it does work, but is not the most stable thing. I bought it because I wanted something different and was interested in how well the plas---er polymer construction will hold up.Will probably also buy an AR or SKS sometime in the next two years or so. Only have about 180 rds thru, due to lack of time to shoot, so far so good. Ammo wise, the PMC bronze and Armscor M855 have worked without a hitch, the Brown Beasrsh*T was the only ones that gave me FTF or FTE. One nit I have is that it is a huge PITA to clean the chamber locking lugs. the barrel does not come off, and with the bolt carrier and gas piston assy removed, and takedown pin out, it is still difficult to get in there even with a Chamber Maid tool. I have OCD when it comes to clean barrels and chambers My own opinion, as always, check the Internet (KTOG forums) for more opinions and good luck!

I have not seen that post, the CMP froums are just back up now on a 13 Apr backup. But if true, you can thank the new Governor for this one. I thought at least things wouldn't get worse, I was wrong. Now watch for online ammo sales--of ALL ammo--and components to go away. Blackpowder? Muzzle loaders? Not for you, NJ citizens. Not Yours. An :x d a host of other 'opinions',perhaps-

:text-welcomewave: Also from Jackson, couple of us on here. Also go to BA and CJRPC
