  1. Picked everything up this morning at 7 AM. "Have fun." So how does OGAM work? My permits are dated 9-29. Can I purchase one per calendar month, or one per 30 days, or what? If it's one per calendar month, I will need an extension if I want to use the third, won't I?
  2. They were dated 9-28, but you picked them up 9-29, right? So they were dated on the day they were ready. I knew you would chime in with that Ray. I can't guarantee I will make the next one, I have to take each one as it comes to see if I am available. All good options, but I don't want to go crazy trying to find all those guns to shoot - I am limited by the rental board. What I really want to find out is of there is any gun out there that will just feel different (better) to me than any other. I think that may not be possible for inexperienced me. I probably need to shoot a lot more before I can really tell which ones fit me well. I heard about that Neos recall - if I buy new, that won't be a problem, and if I go used, I think I just need to check the serial # at their website.
  3. When was that that you picked them up in the morning? She definitely said on the message that records is only open from 1-4. The only reason I would rush to get them tomorrow or Tuesday is if the dates on the permits started already last week. Do you know if they date them when they are ready or when you pick them up?
  4. 1. FPID and 3 Pistol Permits 2. Clifton PD 3. Kassie Krum and Detective Cusack 4. 3 months, 2 weeks 5. Standard forms. Edit: The "blue card" was actually the FID itself 6. Notes: I really think that me being cordial and friendly with Kassie, (as I try to be with everyone ) may have helped my app move along quicker and definitely helped to avoid hold-ups.
  5. So I got "the call" on Thursday that my FPID and permits were "approved" and can be picked up. But since they can only be picked up between 1-4 PM on weekdays I probably will not be able to get them until Friday. So, I gotta get cracking with some decision making. I got 3 PPs, so I have options. I plan on heading out to SS one night this week to rent 9mm's. I also want to choose a .22, and to round it off, pick up a wheelgun (all in different months, of course.) Anyone want to suggest which ones I should try out from the Shore Shot rental board list? Or, even better, will be there this week with something for me to try? I have already used/partially evaluated (for myself) the M&P, XD, SR9, PX4, and G19 (I think). What I want to try right now is a Sig, a CZ, and the 92FS (I am very partial to this gun right now, but that is pending my shooting it.) For a .22, anyone have anything against getting a Neos as my first one? (Not looking for why another one is better, just for reasons to not get this one :icon_neutral: .) Thanks to everyone who has been letting me mooch and use guns and ammo at BH those times I came - soon I will be able to return the favor!
  6. I used to work for GunsAmerica. Basically, you are on your own with deciding if a seller is trustworthy or not. The site just makes the connection, you are one end, the seller is the other, nobody really in between. One tip I can give you is to email customer service and ask if they "know" the particular seller - sometimes they can give you info on prior dealings that may help. And most of all, stick to this age old advice: If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
  7. http://fee.org/library/books/economics-in-one-lesson/ Read that. You will understand. The fact is that for every 1 US Dollar that gets sent out of the country, there must be 1 US Dollar that comes back in, at some point. The only question is where and to whom those rebounding dollars go... and for that, you'd have to turn to politics, which we will not do. [Disclaimer: The comment below is meant as constructive criticism, though it doesn't sound like it, and may be applied to anyone who wants to be taken seriously in any forum, online or off.] To some people who have been posting here who claim to have held executive positions, it would help your credibility if you spelled simple words correctly. (Look up lose versus loose.)
  8. Call Alan Gura and sue NJ, they are completely stopping you from being able to purchase this gun with their cap limit. Or don't. Your call.
  9. As long as our 2A remains as it is, it won't happen (especially in light of the recent events). If it ever should change for the worse, not storing guns at the range now will not make any difference at that point, cuz they will be (trying) to take away your guns anyway.
  10. Why would you tell a politician that you are storing your gun (one of the 200 that you own ) at the range?
  11. You know that's actually a really good idea (until NJ gets its no-ccw laws destroyed). I should get a "range gun" and pay the range a nominal fee (or no fee?) to store it for me. I benefit because I can go there straight from work, and they benefit because I will come more often and pay them to use the range.
  12. Wait, wait, wait... Are you saying I should be able to pay for a gun at BH with no permits, and then leave it there with them for my use whenever I go? (Assuming they are willing to do this). That would totally beat waiting for those permits.
  13. Wait, what? Where are there many ranges that rent? The only I know of are SS and BA, and they are both in the same area.
  14. It was Thursday-Friday, but that is just the beginning Get ready for another 2 Thursday-Friday combos, coming in two weeks and three weeks, for Sukkos.
  15. John! Day of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead (both versions), Night of the living Dead (both versions) Night of the living dead, 1968, it is. What physical state would be best for viewing ?
  16. I'm not going to spoil it for you by giving my real name on the open forum :ugeek: . I finally bought some of my own ammo to shoot - no more mooching. Zombies don't care who bought the ammo. Ray - what zombie movie would you recommend for a first timer? I'd like to see what I might be missing.
  17. So I guess I know who's carrying the ammo when the zombies come!!!!! Word has it zombies are terrified of tiny metal pellets. Reminds them of the last time they got hit by Ray's shotgun.
  18. Interested in a Daisy bb modeled after a 1911? Seriously, I had to go down to the PD today to pick up a ref letter to hand deliver to my reference - the first two were mislaid somehow. So still no permits, and sadly, no toys.
  19. im atheist and i think all religions are equally retarded. cant imagine killing another man over who has a better imaginary friend. Then you are a reasonable person. I was referring to a large group I know of supposedly reasonable atheistic people who always slam all religions, but when talking about Islam, all of a sudden it is just fine if someone wants to practice it.
  20. Ya... even atheists for some reason cut islam waaay more slack than any other religion. Strange because it is arguably the least tolerant one (these days anyway). Now I am not saying all or even most moslems are bad and intolerant, but there are no jews, hindus, or christians blowing people up in the name of their god anymore. Seriously, they need to get with the times. Religious wars are so passe. It's all about the racial genocide now.
  21. Congrats on your FID dude. Ya, seriously, I am in Clifton, and if I get mine in 3 months, I will be happy. Right now I am 2 months in, but one of my references letters never made it back to where it needs to go, so Kassie resent it last week.
  22. If I see this correctly you shoot right handed? Why would you want to have the mag release on the right? Just curious Yes, right-handed. If the button is located so you can press it with your right hand without moving it at all (side of a finger/knuckle), then you can maintain your complete grip on the gun while changing mags. If you were to use the thumb, usually you will need to move the thumb down to reach the button, losing (part of) your grip, and losing the time needed to reattain your precise grip. Granted, getting used to pushing the button with the right will take some time, but if you can pull it off it will speed you up. Again, this is probably only useful for those who have perfected their grip and could actually gain something from it.
  23. I was gonna say "Trogdor?", but then got wise: Ya, if I see that thing (in real life, now) I am running.
