Ny man loses gun license because of son talking guns in school
WVIS, It was at Ykids, an afterschool program to watch kids until parents pick them up after work. It was on school grounds, after hours, but school rules still apply. The kids had been warned by the principal of the school to not make videos after they were caught making Harlem Shuffle clips. The suspension, while a bit much (as my son did not threaten anyone directly nor did he threaten to bring a weapon into school), is what it is. It did make my son realize the seriousness of mentioning guns at school. He got a stern lecture about how his actions could really mess up my life. I, too, have repeatedly told my son that no one at school, or anywhere at all, is to know that I have guns. He was also told to not draw guns, talk about guns, hint at guns or play any violent games at school. This boils down to a young 5th grader getting tricked by older kids to be the star of the video. The older kids knew exactly what they were doing, as they stayed off camera. They were giggling the whole time in the background. The director of the video was also suspended. Both kids were also expelled from the Ykids program, so that f***s with my schedule, as I now have to get him off the bus at 2pm everyday. Good thing I got laid off in January! The kid knows this was a big screw up. Again, better for him to get this lesson over with at 11 instead of 15.

Pulled over with CRKT Rescue Tool
I got pulled over a couple months ago. I was going the speed limit. I had a failed inspection sticker on my 1992 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon. I show the cop the paperwork that says I still have another 3 weeks to make the repairs. He hands me back my papers and then the questions start. Cop....... So, Where are you going? Wawa. What for? To meet a guy. Who are you meeting? At this point I got annoyed by his useless questions that have NOTHING to do with anything that is his business. "I am selling a guy some camera bags that I advertised on craigslist. They are in plain sight, in the back of car. Look and see". Then he starts to grill me on the LL bean keyring nail file, tweezer, toothpick, knife, flashlight combo in my center console. Whats that? A multitool for a keyring. What do you use it for? I use it to clean my nails. Can I go now? He then wishes me a nice day. Yeah, right back at ya. Can you imagine if I had been on the way to the range with a trunk load of guns?

Ny man loses gun license because of son talking guns in school
This could have very easily been me. 2 weeks ago I get a call from the school that my 11 year old son and 2 older boys made an inappropriate video. One of the older boys put it up on youtube. My son was the star of the video. He was acting all tough and gangstery, talking about very inappropriate things and mentioned an AK-47. My wife & I went in to talk to principal. A cop was there taking a report. Long story short, my son was suspended for a week. And given a stern warning from the cop and principal. I do not question the suspension, zero tolerance means zero tolerance. But I did have legitimate fears that cops would show up to "inspect" my guns. And that the dyfs gestapo would show up with armed cops. My fear was the police report. In it, the cop says I denied to the principal that I owned guns. That never happened. The principal said it was " none of his business if I owned guns or not, but he hoped if I did, they were locked up". I called the juvenile detective to clarify, but he has not returned my call, 2.5 weeks later. I think this event is no longer a priority, but it is scary that anything my kid says or does could really, really jam me up. My son is an A student, perfect scores on NJASK tests and generally a very sweet boy. He was trying to impress 2 older boys, who encouraged him to say the things he did. He made a bad choice. We think it was very good for him to learn this lesson at 11, instead of 16.

Beretta U22 Neos?
I own a Buckmark and love it. My dad has a Neos. I do not care for the location of the mag release, but only because it is not in the usual place. Also, the grip is kinda tiny for my hands. I owned the S&W 22a. That is also a very good gun. I just preferred the weight and balance of the Buckmark.
- Least expensive firearm you ever purchased?

Henry is Hiring
UPDATE>>> I met with Tom at Henry in Bayonne today. Very nice guy and it would be cool to work there. I learned that in the last 3 years, Henry's annual output has gone from 200,000 rifles, to 250,000, to 300,000. 2013 looks to be an even bigger jump in production. Talk about growth. They are paying $13 an hour, max. Very sad.

"Do you have your permit sir?" -1 for Sportmans Rendezvouz
I went there a couple years ago. Same thing with needing to show a p2p to look at a pistol. FID and Dl did no good. Never went back.

Can i Shoot a mannequin at ft dix?
WMAs are pretty much a free-for-all, but limited to .22, shotgun and muzzleloaders. Stafford Forge often looks like a junk yard. Lotsa stuff lying around, like computer monitors, frying pans, toys and whatnot. I do wish people would clean up after themselves. I forsee a day when the state clamps down on WMAs due to the mess.

Gov. Christie vs NJ Assy/Senate
My opinion........ I see the Gov as our only hope here. The Assembly will pass all the new laws, and the Senate most likely will follow suit. Their minds are already made up and they show no interest in compromise with us. Most of them have ignored our pleas, citing polls that most in NJ support ALL of the new proposed laws. Govs veto is what we should be aiming for. I think if we all concentrate our efforts on the Governor's office, and only the Governor's office, we may stand a chance in defeating these BS laws. Ignore the people who will not listen to us. He is facing an election this year. Remind him of Florio's defeat after NJ's AWB went into law. Remind him of the Republican sweep in DC after the national AWB went into law. On second thought, Sweeney is, for better or worse, the second most powerful man in the state & shows a willingness to confront the Gov. So, concentrate on Gov and Sweeney? Thoughts?

.22 revolvers
S&W 34 here. Very nice, little 4-inch J frame. Kid A loves it and will most likely get it as his first handgun when he turns 21. I picked it up used for around $350.

Should i be worried about my coe?
In NJ, there are no felonies or misdemeanors. Crimes = Felonies Disorderly Persons = Misdemeanor Egg throwing would almost certainly be a misdemeanor. I have a misdemeanor on my record and it has is no way interfered with my FID or P2Ps. If you have the gun, don't worry about it. In future, check no. Good luck.

Whats the fastest you have ever gone?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OfMfOkcJJQ I thought I would share this here. In 2004, I got a VIP ride on a Blue Angels F/A-18 prior to an airshow at McGuire. Maneuvers and Mach 1 out over the ocean. I blacked out 3 times. Keep in mind that Blue Angel pilots do not wear G-suits, so neither do the VIPS. I think max g was around 7.5. Hope the video works.

Question about a private party pistol purchase
Could you be named in the will as recipient of the gun upon his death? Then no p2p would be needed, correct?
