If he was local to me, I would place an order even though I have no ammo needs. Best of luck to him.

If your brother has a NJ PFID card and matching DL, yes, you can transfer a long gun to your brother using the NJ Certificate of Eligiblity for each gun. If he has a Permit to Purchase a handgun, you can transfer a hand gun to him. You keep blue, he gets pink, white and yellow get mailed off to cops. EDIT..... Apologies Charles...you mentioned SP 634...which is the NJ COE.

Not yet....Saving that for the MS3000 I ordered. Should be here by Friday!

I was long overdue for a haircut before the panic. With Murphy shutting down barbers, I was desperate. I caved and bought a set of cordless clippers from Amaz. Now? I am easy to clean, high & tight and ready for the revolution!

My last 2 long gun purchases were from Tanner's in Jamison, PA. Both receipts list the price of the gun and a $10 "license" fee, both taxable. How much is PICS vs. NICS?

I am in Berkeley Township, Ocean County. My permits expired on the 17th. I called them on the 16th and said "I can come in today and get them renewed, or I can wait until this all settles down." They said they would prefer me to come back later and would renew them to 180 days from issue date. It's a moot point as I probably will not use any of them given the projected economic reality of post-covid19.

Good to know.

Really? I was under the impression that my long gun buys at Tanner's went thru PICS.

I called my town on Monday about renewing my permits that expired on Thursday. They told me they will renew them to 180 days from original issue date after the panic dies down.

I am self-employed and I always get my permits. As for references, check with your town about using relatives. My town allows it. For my last round of permits in December, I used my father and my son with no problems at all. NICS was running days behind until it got shut down yesterday. The only way you can get a gun at this point is a face to face transfer from an immediate relative.

Good to know. It's a moot point anyway, as I am still waiting on my pink card. I musta been wrong.

Well now I feel like an idiot for giving my left-handed son a left-hand 590 for his 18th birthday. I bought the gun specifically for him. Maybe he wants to trade me for my righty 500 persuader?

Do I remember correctly from my gun sales days???..... I was told a holder of a pink card could transport firearms in the name of the FFL to customers that have passed NICS. It never came up in the day to day operations of the shop.

I think basing our models on China is flawed. They are a totalitarian regime that was able to lock away residents thru threats. We are a free society that refuses to do as we are told. Seeing all those idiots on the beach yesterday was proof.... AND I am sure China told lies about the numbers of infections to save face. We should be basing our models on Italy.

Yup, caught that too. My bet is he says clean out your desks, go home at the end of the day Friday and don't come back.

Ding ding ding...We have a winner! If I could only own 1 gun, it would be a Mossberg 500 in 12 gauge.... it can both feed you and protect you.

Some of those brands you have listed are hit or miss in the quality department. Stick with the majors...Mossberg, Henry, Ruger, S&W etc. For a lefty shooter... I would say a 20 or 12 gauge Mossberg 500. Not sure if they still do, but Mossberg used to make lefty pumps. Mossberg has a tang safety that is ambidextrous. 20 gauge in a home defense situation gives up a little stopping power, but I would not hesitate to use one. When you go shopping, check out the Ruger PC 9 or 40 carbines. Easy to shoot, cheap to feed. If you have issues with loading magazines, get an UpLula magazine loader. It is so easy to use. I can load a 10 round magazine effortlessly in under 15 seconds.

If I recall, Springfield XDs 9mm is pretty thin.

You say 295/55/40 corridor. That is only a a few miles from PA. Would a place 20 miles into PA work for you? I would assume PA rules would be easier to deal with.

The article talks about the Ocean County numbers being so high, but officials "do not know why". The first thing that went through my mind was the super high number of retirees that live in Ocean County. Lib grown children from Madison scared by 90-year-old dad with his guns living in Holiday City so they call in a red flag? I will be following this story to see if the officials actually look into this.

The Universe...she works in mysterious ways.

Nevermind....Mossberg got back to me and says they do NOT sell the fancy walnut as an accessory. They looked at the wrong part. Numrich it is.

On a whim, I emailed Mossberg about the Retrograde furniture again a few hours ago. A reply came back very fast.... Thank you for your email. We do offer that furniture for accessory purchase. If you send me your serial number I can get you a quote for what it would cost to make the swap. Sincerely, Customer Service Team O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc. Still waiting to hear back on the quote. I have a 500 Cruiser wearing plastic furniture. If Mossberg is too pricey, I think I may go with another Numrich wood set for $31.25.

Centerfire rifles up to .30 cal!?!?!? I hope this new rule will eventually make it down to Stafford Forge! No mention of rimfire?

4 of us did R14 this afternoon. With the 70* weather, I was really expecting a wait, but we got right on the pistol range. Took 2 new shooters and did not want to overwhelm them with the screaming ARs on the 200 yard range. Shot .22, .38sp and 9mm. A lovely day.
