  1. Sop here. This forum is typically the least responsive, slowest and downright aggravating to me. Could be my home support system but almost all others sites I visit work in real time. Oh well.
  2. Don't forget to pack a drink, snacks and a cigar if your inclined lol. Since moving to FL CR is about the only thing I really miss. Don't be dismayed if it's too crowded today given what's going on there. During the week it's typically much different, not unusual to have a range to yourself or one other shooter. Try not to smile too much as you wade thru the spent brass at the plinking range. Enjoy!
  3. And on that note...also nearby in FL, we are selling my way over 55 in-laws 2004 Grand Marquis LS. Really nice car, moves proper with a v8, would love to keep it but just not practical.
  4. Sorry, no gun help. But just to help your search the CX4 9mm comes in 3 versions, 92, PX4 and Cougar. All versions can be switched to another with pcs from Beretta and all that is is a plastic magazine sleeve that pops in/ out and a proprietary mag release button, sold separately. Good luck.
  5. Did you post the business location?
  6. I have the same set up. Best mount out there for scoping the MN.
  7. Interesting topic particular to me as a noob to Florida and by default, new to frequent ccw. Knowing for a long time I actually would be residing in FL I made some decisions up in NJ about ccw and what to carry. Over time it became apparent IWB wasn't for me, I suffer from chronic droopy drawers and just could not find a comfort level for it both physically and in my head. On the other hand pocket carry was easy and comfortable- for me. That narrowed down the field of guns and the associated calibers. And the 380 won, specifically The lcp2 loaded with Fiocchi Extremas,. So yes I feel ok with 380 for self defense. Of course I would like a bigger and badder firearm but keeping in mind the biggest self defense mechanism is situational awareness I don't plan on putting myself in a questionable environment but I also don't plan on getting Tboned at tha intersection or getting hit by lightning but shit happens an deal with it, 380 will give me that chance. BTW, there is always a 9mm and ammo stashed in my car/truck as backup should I (hopefully) need to make a hasty evacuation and wonder wtf just happened. And just to ramble on a bit more, there are unintended consequences to pocket ccw. Such as the gun now occupies the pocket my wallet and keys typicalled called home. So they went to my left pocket where my cell phone resided........there is a learning curve not the least of which is remembering or deciding to bring the gun.....or where to keep it when not carrying wether home or traveling to a place that doesn't allow.....these are first world lifestyle adjustments, remember, I spent 62 yrs in Jersey before finding greener pastures.
  8. Ok thanx. I put on the kit back before the Snorkel came out was just curious.
  9. What's the dif between the Snorkel and a regular kit?
  10. Giants lost so same old shit there lol. However I saw no issues thru out the games broadcast. Turned it on at kickoff so had no idea what/if any antics happened before That. Was on ESPN so was a little leary because they are owned by Disney but the announcers stayed true to the game and football in general. I even watched most of the commercials to see which way that wind was blowing but same commercials except for a few support your local businesses which was fine.altho their was one that caught me off guard, a Biden for pres one. It was pretty heavy and he shamelessly propped his family's tragic history of death and sickness to promote his (Obummers)healthcare plans. Anyway It's so far so good for me. Will see how other games on other networks handle themselves. I get far more upset just watching the news and enjoyed me some football.
  11. I never get tired saying the following because I am so greatfull to be able to say it. My wife worked for the PA in the towers. She was invited to a early morning business meeting breakfast at One of the rooftop restaurants. She declined and opted to sleep in a bit and go in a little late, a decision that saved her life. She was boarding PATH when it happened and fortunately was able to do a quick turnaraound a get a train home minutes before all hell broke loose everywhere. I was working on a roof when told and was fairly confident she was ok but still anxiously waited to hear from her. First thing I did was get my kids out of school to let them know everything was ok for us. Btw, she was also in the '93 basement bombing and had to walk down 82 flights in a sooty smoke filled stairway with hundreds of others.
  12. That was me two yrs ago lol. Packed up this year, Just finished un- packin.
  13. Putting aside any distaste for retired Leo and carry, they only filed a amicus brief which is basically just cheerleading. ANJRPC has done this for other 2A cases around the country too.
  14. siderman replied to Zeke's topic in General Discussion
    Never heard either. But I like that it comes in pretty colors.
  15. When you find that so called compilation of gun crimes see how many were committed by holders of a FPID card, you know, the law abiding people like us who are tormented and punished for those crimes.
  16. Good idea to feel that out. I once went to my Cleo a few weeks before expiration , he said he can't/ won't sign something that is still active. However he did say he would sign the extension the day after expiration. But then again I remember reading about a guy who tried after they expired and was told no, Cleo would not "re-new" paperwork that was not good anymore. That's the problem with discretion, one never knows until you find out.
  17. Jeesh! How in this day and age of so much available information can a Leo still be so wrong???
  18. Ok everybody, all together.... If you're on a highway and Road Runner goes beep beep. Just step aside or you might end up in a heap. Road Runner, Road Runner runs down the road all day. Even the coyote can't make him change his ways. Road Runner, the coyote's after you. Road Runner, if he catches you you're through. Road Runner, the coyote's after you. Road Runner, if he catches you you're through. That coyote is really a crazy clown, When will he learn that he never can mow him down? Poor little Road Runner never bothers anyone, Just runnin' down the road's his idea of having fun. source: http://www.lyricsondemand.com/tvthemes/roadrunnerlyrics.html
  19. When I ran a ng pipe to my portable gen I used a proprietary chart that was on the website for US Carb. Wasn't concerned about propane as that is a direct connect tank.
  20. I do miss CR a lot.would typically make a day out of it or until my eyes or knees would call it quits. Now reside in FL and the nearest outdoor range is almost an hr away now but will get over there to check it out. Plenty of indoor ranges all within 20 mins and cheap. I just don't like them given a choice, am a little claustrophobic and don't like a clock ticking over my shoulder. Also lots of pawn shops that buy/ sell guns to check out although I'm sure these days no bargains, if guns, are to be had. Come to think of it that's a good idea, go hit a few pawns and get the lay of the land down here they love to talk and I've got plenty of cash to flash
  21. Sorry for your loss. I know how heartbreaking it is, our pets, especially dogs to me, are family. I can only remember shedding tears three or four times in my adult life and I know two of those Were for lost dogs. She will RIP.
  22. Nice. Hope NJ doesn't implode before then.And watch out for those eruvs.
  23. No, realistic. Hope, aka optimism, is not a strategy. There are no choices for change other than a change of state. I've been out a few months now and can see NJ a bit more objectivly. The grass is greener out here and NJ looks even worse from the outside. I almost feel stupid and foolish now for staying as long as I did. Get out.
