True. Way back when I built/renovated my house it was one of a few things I didnt do myself. Turned out for like $200 more than what I could have got it for a insul guy did it and it was a lot of walls, ceilings and crawlspaces. No brainer and a lot faster. Of course I went around afterwards doing qc....

GFCI's are required in new construction/renovated garages and shed type structures and iirc all outlets must be protected. Some concerns were extension cords being dragged outside thru water, cars being washed inside, floodwater getting in etc. There may be a few exceptions like inaccesable ones not sure about the nuances been out of the loop for a while.

Give a man an empty garage and anything can happen....is this garage just enough to cram a car into or is there room to spread with a workshop, storage, secret safe room.....

gone, pending p/u.

To All- hoping to make this easy for me and just have someone stop by and p/u. At this time not interested in driving to a meet-up or mailing. Still available for p/u and all PMs replied to.

I don't reload but have been collecting my brass for sale/trade but am done bothering with it now. Have a little brass left over to get rid of, maybe 18-20 lbs. Have 9, 38 with a few 357 mixed in, 45 & 223/556. Also about 40 pcs 308 and a couple pcs 30-06 all seperated. Not cleaned just as picked up from the ground 95% my shots. For reloaders no scrappers please. If you're near Midland Pk come get it. Post I'll take it than PM me.

For many yrs I just used a big solid leather duffle bag from a garage sale for $1. Got an official one few yrs back with a gift cert from Midway but for just tossing your gear in you can go real cheap via garage sale bags.

Zeeker- this tweeked my memory, I *think* I may still have these two px4 pcs from my cx4 but swapped them out yrs ago. I'd have to go rummaging but yours for $35 shipped if I find them. PM if interested.

just need the mag well sleeve insert and a mag release, prob about $50 in parts from Beretta.

next thing ya know they'll be telling us how to cook eggs!

Your point on persecuted refugees is actually very much on point. I too born, lived my entire life here and recently retired. But definetly feeling boot on ass from the relentless 2A oppression. I can live with the over crowding and expensive life here its part of me but the politics of this state is something else and has turned into something that just doesnt come close to who we are any more, and btw not just the gun stuff. If not for my mom who lives 3 mins away & depends on me I'd be gone. Unfortunatly she will not leave her home but for on a stretcher....All my family is here but scattered and not nearby. And to top things off my wife may be tempted to return to work, there has been some teases with a 6 figure salary again, hard to turn that down. Which would make sense since I cant abandon my mom however I made it clear job or no job we're out of here should my mom leave us. We would have no issue leaving NJ behind first real chance we get.

Nanny State strikes again.

The obvious course of action is to not let a demorat win the gov seat, a long shot for sure. Looks like it may get even harder for a Republican win, seems Joe Piscapo is seriously thinking a Indy run for gov. Was thinking on going on the R platform but doesnt think a R could win so.......way to take away R votes Joe. Dick move.

Nothing that hasn't been written before. They are dusting off all the proposed bills from after Sandy Hook shooting. This one is A3754 from http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/www.anjrpc.org/resource/resmgr/ds-email/gun_control_list_03-22-13.pdf I've mentioned this a bunch of times that this list is the rough draft of the NJ SAFE Act coming our way. They warned us 4 yrs ago, here it is again. Take notes, especially the newcomers here who may not have seen this list before, its a shocker.

Nothing that hasn't been written already. Lets go back a few yrs to see 2018: http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/www.anjrpc.org/resource/resmgr/ds-email/gun_control_list_03-22-13.pdf

Get it before our Democrats do!

Well, talking about it-any law- and obeying it are two different things...... There's only one way to settle it. Where's that phone # for the state firearms unit?

I'm still doubting the PA range trip travel exemption would legally help you get the finished lower-now firearm- back to your NJ home. The exemption states using the range "for the purpose of practice", not hanging out in the parking lot. That means shooting, not happening with a lower only. Not discussing about getting away with it by not driving stupid and getting pulled over, and the remote chance of search etc. Besides, that argument just infers that there is actually something to be worried about.

Maybe I can offer a dif view about what a rescue dog is. I have two. The rescue isnt in me being the hero and saving the dogs but the fact that they themselves were rescued by a org up here that goes down South and rescued them from some pos high kill shelters. Back when I was a kid it was called adopting. Who cares (besides mipa...) what you call it anyway.

so the travel exemption is coming home from a range. May work with a functioning handgun that you were able to build in PA and go to a range with (altho I doubt NJ would share that sentiment just because its NJ). Just a lower, maybe not. An argument could be made that the law doesnt say you HAVE to actually shoot the "firearm" at a range just be there, or maybe it does idk .....Just sounds like a dumb game to accomodate dumb laws and win dumb prizes. And the point of even having to worry about getting pulled over doesnt build confidence of the legitimacy of the whole operation. A little too sketchy for me but for anyone else have at it. And be sure to post pics here after its done.

I'm curious to which travel exemption will get it back to a NJ home from PA.

Kind of thinking about a new one. Not that this old Ariens (1969) is a clunker, runs great but everything is getting worn out and sloppy and getting the sense its time, like something big is gonna break like the tranny or chain. Has its issues but nothing I cant resolve with carefull maintenance. Busted the belt yesterday and it was brand new maybe an hour on it yet the previous belt lasted 15-20 yrs. Was pissed, had to pull it backwards over 75' of sidewalk and then to the garage to work on it, tire chains didnt help. Threw the spare belt on and got another 15' down the sidewalk and busted a sheer pin in a hidden branch in the 2' of snow. I've had this machine for 30 yrs but have this weird sense of duty to keep it alive, if I get a new one will keep it going at my moms house and as a backup blower.

A quick search and yes indeed looks like the NRA is planting 2 Campaign Field Reps here albiet temp till after the election in Nov. Looking forward to seeing how much weight the NRA throws our way. Even the Cynical Me is happy to see this (for a change). oops, the cynic slipped out.....Also looking forward to seeing the democrats reaction to the Big Bad NRA Wolf knocking on NJ's door.

cleaned up 3 houses, broken belt, sheer pin...finally settling down just now and sucking down medicinal scotch. Bbq chicken dinner waiting. After more scotch. Holding up ok for a broken old man.

His & Hers? Good ole Ariens, still working my 48 yr old Ariens! First one I bought-used of course- and still going strong with a few doses of TLC along the way.....
