Moving Gun Safe
You can use any type drying agent, the moisture level will determine how long they last. My safe came with 4 nice sized bags of drying agent, not sure what chemical, but usually is some sort of chloride. As far as i know they should do the trick since the air is stagnant in there, meaning moisture will only enter when you open it. I would rather put my stuff in a damp basement with a dehumidifier for the room then a garage.

Animal rights advocates sue to stop bear hunt in NJ
These people be STOOOPID! In the past couple years i have heard a couple times a year about a bear being trapped in a suburban town reeking havoc. They have no reason to move there unless there is serious competition in there habitat. If you live anywhere in North NJ, bears are very common, even if you've never seen one. In wayne my friend had a bear on his property and it was just hanging out, no garbage, took him a couple hours to leave.

Beretta 92a1 ( availablity nj )
Honestly, i wasnt a fan of the rounded trigger guard, just wasnt what i thought a beretta should look like, although yes a minor difference but im picky. The reason i wanted the 92A1 was to throw some night sights on it. The more i thought about the more i realize i didnt need night sights...throw a light on the rail! The M9A1 also has the 92Fs upper which the 92A1 doesnt. I liked the idea of the better mags 15rds with pvd coating, they go for like 40 bucks a pop, but u get one less(although most the places i found selling the 92A1 were selling them with 2 mags not sure why, beretta said 3). And the beveled mag well for quicker mag changes. Its preference really, i also liked the idea of having a pistol currently being used in the military. Like others have said, dont worry about the mags, you can pick up what ever you like. And also some one mention something i do as well. I have never put 15 rounds in my mags, i load only 5, unless you got deep pockets and can afford to run through ammo. I have 2 mags right now and im thinking i should have at least 4 more. Im going to say this and really don't take it with a grain of salt, Beretta's manufacturing dates are all over the place, and will not give you a date for when they ship stuff. If your shop told you they would be getting something in from beretta don't take there word for it unless it was already shipped(exactly why they couldnt give you a date), cause they don't know, and beretta's answers aren't what your would expect. When i got a response from them when i first inquired there response was we don;t know could be a week or 2 or 2 months. SO if they have a model you want, don't wait in anticipation for the same gun with different mags, u may be waiting a while. Just get it if you really want it, and pick up some 15rd mags. U can get mags for like 20bucks a pop for this gun, since all the 92 model mags are interchangeable with the 92a1 and m9a1. To be honest in august i was trying to get the gun with NO mags cause 10rd wasnt even available, at least u get the 10rd mags. Either way your going to get one bad a** sidearm, no matter which one you choose. There both 2010 production models too. What i really like about both of them is the fact the rail looks like its should be there and It doesn't look like a tacticool weapon. Looks like after 4 months the 10rd 92A1 is finally in stock, imagine if i waited 4 months!

Can I use a Postal Mail Order for my firearms app?
Not sure what you guys needs money orders for... its 11 dollars for the fid card and 3 permits 5 + 2(x3) which goes to your local PD.. and then the only way you can get around paying morphotrack is if you dont have access to a computer and credit card, in that case you need a MO. Nothing goes to the state police-sbi any more... they get paid through morphotrack.

Beretta 92a1 ( availablity nj )
I was in your exact predicament in august. Around that time they just released the 92a1, but i could only find it with 17rd mags, after searching for some one to swap out the mags, the place i was trying to order it from wouldnt even ship to NJ, and couldnt open the factor sealed box to remove the mags. I finally settled for the M9A1, which in my opinion is the same exact thing minus removable sights. I really enjoy the gun, and will probably be in my arsenal for life. Also the M9A1 comes with the expensive 15rd mags(sand resistant). Each Beretta model usually sells with 2 different mag options M9A1-15or10, 92A1-10or17 I have been regularly checking to see if any 92A1's finally appeared with 10rd mags but nothing.....i mean nothing! i have all shops bookmarked with e-mail alerts for when they come in stock. Beretta is weird... Also if your not into the rounded trigger guard the M9A1 may be a better choice, also has a beveled mag well. I got my M9A1 on buds, i was out the door from my FFL and only spent 650.

Civil lawsuit against my daughter
My little brother was in an accident over the summer, some guy backed into his car while he was getting into it and hit the door, which in turn pinned him in between the door and the car, luckily the spot that got hit didnt have enough leverage to crush him. He went the ER with brusing on his chest. My father went to the scene of the accident where the guy who hit him was being such a scum bag, saying my brother flew into the parking lot and hit him...go figure, even with an outlined welt across his check of a door impresson, he still continued to lie, my dad said f this and called a lawyer to sue, normal he wouldn't but the guy was just being such a a-Hole he said he basically deserved it. Despite all of this, my dads lawyer(a very good one) said it was pointless, and you basically have to be permanently impaired to sue in NJ, for the exact reason of people abusing the system.

If he were to be judged by his peers then wouldnt it be biased to not have some one with a gun on the jury?

Let's play devil's advocate. What would be NJ's best defense against the SAF suit?
You have no idea how many people i have to educate on gun laws. When i picked up my AR from the store, some guy said, you can't have that, its an Assualt rifle, me and the guy helping with the forms looked at him in a bizarre fashion, and continued with the paper work, people who own firearms barely know the laws. Last year when i applied for my firearms stuff, i was under the impression that i had to do it, the way things were going in the state, i was not going to chance waiting for the laws to get worse. If anything the current attitude surround the laws is making people go out and buy them, its just like anything they do, it has the opposite effect of what they intend. My friend put in his paper work for P2P, the way things are going he will probably use every single permit he applied for. If the process was smoother, and well more unified through out the state, he would have just bought 1, but now he said there's no way im going through all that BS again, im just gonna buy as much as i can. So much for the lower firearm sales. they just made it an easy decision for him to buy more guns!

Called state police about hollow points
The minus to this situation is that WE have to educate the cops..... god forbid they bother to do it themselves. Let me put it into perspective for you, this is like a kid walking into a class room and asking his teacher, whats 2+2, teacher answers 5, kid says isnt it 4, checks calculator...oh yeah its 4...... Would you want this person teaching your kid? FYI- They don't send rookies into state divisions, you have to wait like 2 years. That's 2 years this guy could have been brushing up on his firearms knowledge.

STS-033 Question 12
So.... do you really have to have a job to get/buy a gun? I mean what if you put unemployed, or N/A or undisclosed.

Bryan Miller of CeasfireNJ on Brian Aitken
The problem is that our own state doesn't recognize the laws they made! You can't make a law, and then decide that only half of the law matters. You cant expect people to foresee something like this. If i were on my way to the range with my 9mm 15rd mags and HP ammo, and i got stopped by a cop and searched this very well could have been me. All legal through exceptions of the law, i guess that part of the law don't matter much. I'm not a fan of if you don't like the law move out... It should be if you follow the law you still go to jail...

Brian Aitken, in jail in NJ for 7 years for owning legal guns
What surprises me is that so many people think HP bullets are illegal... I mean there all over that comment board calling the guy stupid and what not...when the reality is there legal. Even some of the pro-gun guys don't even know the law. What scares me is that this could happen to anyone... As far as i can tell no law was actually broken... What's even more scary is that a Judge has enough power to sway the jury... i thought people went to jail for **** like that. Illegal search and seizure? On what grounds did they search his vehicle? and how did they make it to the trunk... I was under the impression that probable cause only granted access to passenger compartments, excluding the trunk and glove box, unless of course something was found in the passenger compartment.

Police: Vermont man killed in gun prank
C'mon guys.... People play airsoft and paintball all the time, ur suggesting they not point the guns at eachother? I used to shoot my roommate with an airsoft pistol all the time when he was sleeping, its actually a good prank, yeah when ur not using a real gun... Now in this case.... Who the F*&K! picks up a gun, and just automatically assumes its an air rifle. They should tag on a stupidity charge cause im not sure they got the point across. My beretta airsoft is actually a replica of my real 9mm beretta, as of now, owning a real firearm, i wouldn't point anything at anyone. Before, it wasnt like my 2g bbs were going to turn into a 9mm, but now thats a real concern, even tho i check everything i pick up now.

proper age to own a concealed handgun license
Im gonna chime in on this, i'm 24 and fully agree with the 18yr old statement, if you can die for your country then i dont seen how anyone can deprive you of anything age related. However, saying that i have to say that most 18yr olds barely know thing meaning of responsibility and Maturity. When i was 18 the last thing i was thinking about was having a pistol on my hip, and it would seems teens these days feel as if there invincible. Personally im fine with anyone having a permit, as long as they don't hand them out like drivers licenses. Maybe have a 21age limit, where the permit process includes other like state standards, and for 21 and under they need to complete a REAL course + the 21 standards that would include classes that test moral judgment, responsibility and character, hell.. make it a once a week course for 12 months and charge 80 bucks a session, that would not only bring in money to pay for the courses, and this is a long shot, but maybe put the rest towards something productive for the state. #1 reason i am becoming a teacher is becuase im a true believer that if you want to get anything done right, you do it through education. Education helps people make decision based on facts, where as laws aonly pursuade people not to do something because it's illegal.

why is it sooo difficult to get any help from a gun store?
+1 for Metlzers, the guys are really nice. The higher prices are worth it imo, no where else in the area will you find the help they offer. There very strait forward and don't BS you. When i got my RRA from them last month, i had it transferred, normally a $100 fee, they cut it down to $50 because it was an AWB compliant version they didn't want to hassle ordering. When in reality they could have charger me the 100. I would rather pay a good place more money, then just try and go cheap and support a store that doesnt offer much but cheap prices.

Looking to join Cherry Ridge
Hey guys i want to join a range, and Cherry Ridge seems like the best one in the area. It's actually very close to me, and on the way to Mt. creek so it's like 35mins away...maybe 25 the way i drive up 287 and 23. I've never been there but i took a look on the web site and also a nice over view from google maps and the place looks amazing. I want to learn how to shoot at 300+ yards and nothing seems to offer that range wise like cherry ridge. Also will be using it for plinking .22lr and practice with 9mm I'm looking to join relatively soon as i know next Sunday is there join up day, but i may wait until January as i know i'm not going to have time this month with school and holidays. Is membership for a fiscal year? or from date acquired? If i do join up, what would i need or be recommended for the range target wise since you need to provide your own. I was thinking like a nice metal plate that falls when hit and erects automatically, and a nice stand for paper. What are there rules for what you cant use? I'm sure they've seen it all at some point. people walking on with home made rigs... is that OK too? I love the idea of an outdoor range, so much shooting diversity! I also have no where to shoot my new AR, I know Bullet hole accommodates them, but i felt weird enough walking in there with my pistol from my car, plus 23yards with a rifle is kinda, no, really lame and im not just looking to fire off some rounds.
