We're not out of the woods yet with this issue. They have to hold public hearings so the animal lover tree hugging wackos get their say. They are going to have to face facts and come to realize that the methods they came up with these last 2 or 3 years did not work and in fact made the population jump. Trash will always be around and bears will find it. The population is just getting out of hand and I am glad the state had outside people to confirm the bear population numbers. I am sick and tired of these Sierra Club members criticizing the Fish and Game (DEP) on all their efforts. Sierra Club is a political environmental organization that gets nothing done. The Fish and Game have done more conservation than any other bear loving group.

I'm an AK 47.

It's total BS that they say its voluntary in NJ to register your firearms. If you purchase a long gun or a pistol there is a paper trail of the purchase so essentially we are registering our guns when we buy them.

BH opens at 12 noon on Sunday. I went last week and had to wait standing for 45 mins and I was there at 12. You have to probably get there BEFORE opening and wait outside to get in at 12.

What town did you get the ticket in? A lot depends on the town you get it in. Some prosecutors are just big a holes but some are cool and if you catch them in the right mood they will help you out. Lots of time you can plea it down and just pay the money. They don't want anything but your money remember that. You could try that BS fighting it and questioning the cop. It does work someti mes but not all the time.

I don't blame you for one second for cancelling. If they said it was going to be there then the gun should have been there when they said it was to be there. If it was going to take 2 weeks then they should have told him 2 weeks. That is complete BS if they don't know when their shipments are coming in. As far as paying in full that is also complete BS.

Did you you a credit card? Thats BS. Sorry to hear that.

I bought a handgun the other night. I asked the guy at the counter how they are keeping track. The store owner says they are keeping a log. If the store is keeping a log then how is the state keeping track. I dont think there is any process in place to track the purchases. I thought there was but now I am not so sure. Is someone at the state going through all the permits and actually keeping track? Its hard enough for them sending background checks out supposedly. I think its a BS. I think there is no system in place. I wouldnt test it though. You know how NJ is. They enforce something at anytime they feel like it then its back to usual.

Yes your right. An organization that lobbies and kisses the asses of crooked politicans so they can keep getting bigger and bigger pay raises and not pay a dime into their healthcare and also collect pensions that no one in the private sector will ever get. Even though the taxpayer is paying the pension.

You mean the same corrupt politicians you union people keep voting in?

RScalzo have you seen some of government employees lately??? A "fry cook" as you put it has more brains than some government employees I have come across. Standards have LONG been gone.

I have nothing against cops and firemen. But when is this paying up going to end?? We the taxpayers are out busting our hump so we could fund your pensions. I have been working for the private sector forever and you know who funds my pension? I do. Its called investing for your future. Save up and pay your own pension. Firemen and police salaries are not the salaries from 30 years ago. They far surpass the private sector salaries so stop crying the blues already. Property tax are at an all time high in this state and they are not going to get any better.

FiOS sucks. Worst decision I ever made. Contract is almost up. I always ask why they need a commitment for a year? Now I know why. Optimum never made me commit to a contract for a year. Never will I switch again.

Here is how you transfer the guns. Go to mother's house. Put the unloaded guns in a case. Put the cases in the trunk of your automobile. Drive them over to your house and place them in your safe. Transferred. I am pretty sure as long as your ABLE to get an FID and the pistol permits, you are good to go. By the way, Im sorry for your loss.

I didnt buy anything!! Was just looking!!

Do you actually want to be the example of the NJSP??? I wouldnt. I was at the gunshop today and some guy had a problem. They thought he was there earlier than 30 days trying to buy another gun. Turns out it was his 31st day and he could buy a gun. I dont know how they knew but the store knew. I think the NJSP is keeping track somehow.

Re: NJ FID application data collection effort 1. Application type (FID/permit w/ existing FID). - FID address change +3 Pistol Permits 2. Police Department where you applied. - Ramsey 3. Name of the person you dealt with at the PD. - Patrolman forgethisname 4. Time taken to issue FID and/or permit. - 3 months and a few days 5. Documents required by the PD (aside from the standard application and the mental health release form). None. 6. Notes - anything pertaining to the application process (unforeseen difficulties, chief of police calling your home, you hiring an attorney, etc.). None

Its not a man purse..its a satchel.

Im addicted to Rutt's Hut. I had to move out of the area. I wonder how bad they are for you? I was at the Bullet Hole the other night. On the way back home I had to stop there. Now I'm craving them all the time!!!

I have been Turkey hunting for the past 2 years. Havent seen one damn Turkey. The key to Turkey hunting is you have to scout out for them. This can take days and this still doesnt guarantee you Turkey. To scout out for them you have to use an owl call the night before and see if you can call them out in the trees. Once you find an area where you know they are you plan to setup near a tree in that general area the next day. You can only hunt them until 12pm. Just in time for lunch. NJ uses a lottery system for the permits. You have to apply for the zone you want to hunt in and you also have to pick the week. I have never seen them run out of permits though. I think they just dont want all the hunters to hunt opening day at the same time. Very dangerous. Yes, no hunter orange. From the experience from a few guys that I know that hunt and have successfully hunted many Turkey you do NOT need a camo gun. It helps but you don't NEED it. You do need to stay VERY still and that is tough to do especially when you are ready to take a shot and get your gun up. I think you can use a monopole which is what I need to get. I could talk all day about TUrkey and Deer.

I'd really want to get the opinion of local gun shop owners take on this new law so far? Have sales slowed down because of OGAM? I mean guns will still sell its just that people are going to be held back from buying guns. Will there be a lot of "hold that gun for me" type deals or what? This OGAM really sucks and is slowing everything down.

dont feel so bad spec ops. I requested 3 and im at the 3 month mark. Going to see if i hit 4 months. I am not holding my breath anymore.

Had a cold last week. Only lasted 3 days though.

So how are they working it? Are they expecting us to pay every time we apply for a permit and pay the $18+$2 fee??? I don't understand it. Maybe there is no way to keep track of one gun a month so this is there way to keep track.
