How do you guys deal with friends, family, and co-workers?
Most of my friends are either in LEO, Loss Prevention, or EMTs, so no big deal. Having said that, I don't really "wave the flag" that I have weapons. The wife doesn't dislike it or like it. She understands it's a tool and prefers not to partake in the hobby. The kids uderstand it, but have not expressed interest. Also, having said that, I don't plan on having a "Youtube Gun Channel", nor would I start posting stuff on Facebook. I watch the YT Gun Channels, but that's about it. Facebook sucks, and the only reason why I have one is to check in on my teenage kids every now and then. However...I do express opinion and don't mind showing items here on NJ Gun Forums. This forum is gun culture friendly, and I feel confortable sharing with a few people every now and then. Overall, I think it's about culture. NJ/NY were gun friendly at some point, but over the years, the liberal mindset has pretty much demonized the culture. We're immediately labeled as "Rambos" and "gun nuts" from those who do not understand. And quite frankly, I could give a rat's a** about those types. Anyway, I'm digressing and starting to rant. Just my 2 cents.

New C&R holder
I hear you, BLF. Maybe the discounts and lower pricing outweigh the transfer fees? I don't know.

New C&R holder
Congratulations, Dave1563621 Better pricing, perhaps? I saw some 03 and 01 pricing on C & R arms in Shotgun News recently that blew my mind compared to retail and auction pricing.

Beretta 92 first handgun?
I've been thinking about the Beretta 92 as a 2nd pistol.. I had the opportunity to fire one last week. Sweet as hell, although it took a few rounds to manage the recoil. I have a couple of questions though: 1. Clones: I've heard good things about the Turkish clone, by American Tactical. I think Arms N Ammo sells one. Any good? Also, I beleive Taurus makes a clone, but heard "iffy" reviews about it. Just curious if anyone has experience with clones. 2. Shorter barrel: Does Beretta make a shorter barrel version of this one? 3. Concealed carry: I realize it's a full sized gun and may not be the best to carry concealed, BUT, if one were to do so, what would be a good way to do so, i.e. shoulder holster, on the hip FBI slant? Just love this gun, though.

Gas Promblems Anyone?
I know a station owner who sold off the gas business and just kept the auto repair side. Both he and the new gas owner work side by side. He said it just became a pain in the rear end. Although he'd buy the gasoline at wholesale prices, there really wasn't that much of a profit margin, unless he sold thousands and thousands of gallons of gasoline. He didn't have a convenience store either, so the auto repair business is what really kept it afloat. Add the fact that his workers would sometimes bail out on him and it just became too much running between fixing cars and running to do a fill-up. Overall, the SOB is happier now and when I do drop in to say hello, he still tries to sell me his most expensive tires!!

FRM/GMRS Radios - GMRS License
I agree with "this_is_nascar". First determine how you'll utilize these radios. If it's just for casual communications with family at the mall or while hunting/camping, etc., then just stick with the FRS function on the radios. GMRS will function for casual communications as well but will afford you the opportunity to access repeaters. The "licensing" is merely procedural and more like registration. IMO, it's a wasted fee. Sure, you'll have access to a wider network through repeaters, But you'll need to find them, be close enough to access them, etc. Ham Radio, with rather simple licensing procedures, is about as good as it gets and includes worldwide communications, including satellite activity. The radios are more robust and last for years! I've had mine for over 30 years. But again, first determine how you want and need to communicate. Above all, have fun with them! Larry N2ICZ

Moving to NJ
Hey Rich. Welcome to the forums. I'm a NY transplant as well, Westchester County. In NY I had a carry permit, then business took me here and well, no carry permit and the rest is history. Your rifles from NY shouldn't be an issue. In NJ, getting your FID and pistol permits is simply a waiting game. Very draconian gun laws here. In fact, I've been waiting for my latest pitol permits since I was 3 years old! All kidding aside, this is a great forum with a wealth of knowledge. You'll enjoy it.
