What is this proof going to do for you? The local PD can still deny you as "not in the best interests of the community".

I called the State Police a few times to see the progress of the letter. Finally, I was told it was in the mail. Took 3 weeks from that. Just have to be patient.

It is not like a credit report. You pay your ~$40 and the state runs the background check. I did my own expungement and background check afterwards. After the judge grants the expungement, (you should receive a letter of non-contestment from the county prosecutor about a month before your court date (at least I did)), the judge will order the State Police to seal your records. This took 3 months in my case to receive the letter from the State Police that they complied with the judge's orders and sealed the records. I waited another 3 weeks to schedule my fingerprinting. Two days after fingerprinting I received the letter in the mail from the state saying I had no criminal background. Your attorney should have had you run a background check or maybe he did it himself to be sure that all past sins get expunged. When I spoke with the court clerk regarding my expungement, he said he'd run a background check on me to be sure I didn't miss past problems.

My vote is a 357 revolver.

They don't need to be 18 or over. There is another statute that applies to minors and allows them to handle firearms.

Because states have the right to implement reasonable laws governing guns, so sayeth SCOTUS. It is individual's right to own a firearm vs the state's rights to control gun ownership. That is why gun laws are different from state to state.

I love them Kia hamsters. Hate this one. The whole logic that he somehow can't shave on the road or that he has to shave downstairs before his wife will allow him upstairs just defies logic.

You'd be partially correct. It is a combination of aspirin, acetaminophen (Tylenol) and caffeine. Kinda weird how you see it down south but rarely up here.

Actually, I'm not much a fan of yeasty flavored beers. Don't like the hefewisen at all. Belgian beers I'll drink them once in a while. They are usually very strong and I'm a lightweight. When I was in Lille, France for a few days I drank a lot of Leffe. Can't say I fell in love with it. I do like English style ales and the extra hoppy American ales the best. And Guinness and Magner's.

Man, you guys are a tough crowd. I love them Geico commercials. That cute little gecko doing the two-step? How can you hate that.

Even 40 to 45°F is a bit too cold for most ales.

Call up the nice lady and tell her you'd like 6 instead of 1. Tell her you thought 1 was the limit but you'd like 6. The worst she can say is "no".

You need to be a bit more patient. They just received your fingerprint background check.

SN Celebration was extra tasty this year. Get some while you still can.

Seems Gaston is making all the money.

Their point is not hollow.

My opinion: The only reason to pin the stock is to make it NJ. If a LEO is checking out my buttstock to make sure it's NJ legal, I'd much prefer to have what is typically used and accepted as NJ legal. I'd prefer not explaining any sort of mechanical attribute while my rifle is under investigation.

Problem with those targets is that Range 14 wants them at 25 yards and I can't hit them from that far away with a pistol.

I'm with 62-327. I don't have anyplace to shoot a long gun right now. Guess if I hunted, I'd do more with long guns. Once they finish the rifle range at Range 14 I'll be buying a center fire rifle.

If the kid's father left the gun in the truck then yes, the kid did not knowingly possess it.

I half agree with you. I think the bolt is not simpler but it will give more knowledge of cycling. My .22 rifle is a AR15 look alike. I love it. I love shooting .22. Just picked up a .22 pistol. $20 worth of ammo and I could shoot for hours. For my rifle, I load a magazine, pull charging handle, shoot. Eject magazine and load another one. Can't get any simpler than that. Being new something I learned that I didn't expect was that with a scope on a .22 you spend a lot of time learning about bullet drop and flight curves and MOA.

Rant: I hate this whole permit process. it makes me buy a gun when I'm not sure what to buy and then makes me wait and not be able to buy a gun when I see a good deal. It hurts the consumer and NJ gun store. And, the criminals still get their guns. Ok, rant over.

As an impartial observer to all this: A. I'm a capitalist. Charging as much as the market will bear is capitalism. Nothing wrong with that. That is the American way! B. I didn't read every post but I haven't seen anyone say anything negative about GFH's training. By all accounts his training ability is not in question. It's only the pricing that is in debate. See A above. GFH is an asset the forum but as a business, his business practices are open to criticism. I've read no criticism of GFH, the man and I have no problems with his businesses practices. His fees are well communicated. Hidden fees would be a legitimate gripe. If, as a consumer, you feel his prices are too high, then don't patronize his business. A business can set their prices. Don't like what you get for the money then don't patronize the business. That is capitalism.

I have NJM.. Total loss is a lump sum as HD said above. Individual loss is limited to $1000 each if I remember correctly.

I see no need for a firearms specific lawyer. Just get a good defense lawyer. It doesn't matter if your lawyer knows a revolver from a pistol. It is more about getting these charges downgraded or dismissed.
