I agree. Wasn't the NJ chapter of SAF asking around for people denied carry permits a few months ago? They must be cooking something up. Also, once any carry or AWB lawsuit wins at the federal level, like in Westchester County, NY, it becomes very possible to get summary judgment for the same cause in NJ. So even though the lawsuits may not be directed at NJ specifically, the results will help us out here.

I just visited the Brady Campaign and checked out the score card for our state. See it here. After reviewing it, I sent the following message to them: I am curious how three different points on the scorecard help prevent guns from being used in crimes and reduce the illegal gun market. They are: 1) Magazine capacity limit. Will criminals not use or buy guns with only 10 round magazines? 2) Safety training/testing required. Will gun buyers without proper firearms training be more likely to give/sell their guns to criminals? 3) Will the ban on "Military Style Assault Weapons" stop criminals from obtaining semi-automatic rifles that function exactly the same as said "Military Style" guns but are just styled differently? If you can answer those questions (with supporting logic and facts) to my satisfaction, I will gladly donate to the Brady Campaign. I really hope they send me some kind of response. I am interested with what they can come up with.

Define "assault weapon" with any definition that is not arbitrary. That is an argument against any ban, since it cannot be done.

Not reasonably. Same issue right now with 2A, what is reasonable. This "security" theater is not.

If you live in Alaska or Hawaii, your rights are being violated. There is a constitutional right to travel between the states. From those two states, the method of travel (excepting by ship) is air. So yes, your right to travel is being violated if you are forced to submit to an unreasonable search in order to travel by air. Don't know what courts will say about this, but it is one possible argument.

The 23rd could likely work for me at Bayonne. By then I'll be packing a Neos and an XD9 Service. Wouldn't get there until around 8 though. They are open until 10, right?

It's only Wednesday (- yes I spoke to Jim.) But since I am buying new I am going to use True Value. Jim sounds like a good guy though.

Wow... look at this thread! And all I had to do was mention Paterson. I called the guy but didn't speak to anyone there yet.

It's not so much the money as the hours. True Value does it for only $35 total but they are only open until 5-ish. That would mean a day working from home for me just so I can pick it up. Not the biggest deal, but it's easier if I can go after work.

Yeah, the open till 10 thing will help me get out there, even though it almost triples my travel time. Ray, one question - what about driving in Bayonne, and the speed limit? I grew up on Staten Island, and always knew if you go even 1 mph over in Bayonne, that's a ticket. That still true?

Found this FFL at FFLClick.com Did anyone ever use them? F&M Mill & Building Supply Co. 375 Getty Ave Paterson, NJ 07513 phone: 973-279-2596 Hours: 3:00pm-8:00pm Mon.-Fri, Sat. by appointment Transfer fee: Nics fee, proper sales tax plus $15.OO for each long gun or handgun

So it seems they still do not "make" them, but that "have some". Basically, if you want any 15rd SA mags for an XD9, get them now. It sounds like they are phasing them out. This guy I am buying from is selling an XD9 Essentials (Gun, case, mags, that's it) for $439 shipped with two 15rd mags. If you are interested, PM me, I can give you his email address.

They are going to get back to me later this week when some head honcho comes back from vacation. I also found a vendor who is willing to sell me a new XD9 with 15rd mags he special ordered for me. I asked him if he wants to do this for other NJ guys who might be interested, so I will keep you updated.

Ah, well. The rest of use missed it.

link to the 9mm? I checked and see it for 59.99

Thanks for the info. Just called and spoke to John - he is going to find out if they will substitute a 15 rounder for the 3 free promotion they are running now, instead of 10rd.

Did you see a similar price for the 9mm? May I ask where you saw this?

Can't you just hook up an antenna to your TV and get Fox without any Cablevision? They are a broadcast station after all.

I'm going to try that molly idea - sounds like it would work great. I think the rust looks worse in the pics than it is, though the gun was supposed to be new, it was the "floor model" in the case. I can try to get it off with some wd40/oil and some rags or steel wool.

So I got this new Beretta Neos (yay!), and I was wondering about dry firing. Before anyone starts screaming about never dry firing a rimfire, hear me out. 1) In the manual it instructs you to dry fire the gun rather than store it cocked. 2) I took these pics of the barrel/chamber and the firing pin. I am holding the pin in place as far forward as it will go, but notice that it does not go far enough to strike the breech face when fired. So dry firing it should be fine, right?

Hey which back strap did you have on your phantom last night, the larger or smaller one? Thanks for helping me get to know the gun - I think my mind is made up to get one. Just gotta wait another 30 days...

I'm another white guy who still has no guns, even though I got my permits a week ago (fixing that problem this Sunday). I'll be wearing my black NRA cap.

Anyone bringing an XD9 or a CZ75 tonight?

I am not far from him, that is good to know. Does he sell stuff on his own, or just do transfers?

I'm guessing this is not the Dicks in Paramus. Do you know if they sell ammunition at all?
