If you have a basement you can use your real handguns with wax bullets and only primers, If I still had a basement that would be how I would practice.

I bought mine from shore shot, I would suggest checking online and maybe talking to tony at tjsportingarms.

I have this knife with the smooth edge and I use it at work alot for cutting things and opening box's. Its a great knife definitely worth the money very well built and sturdy. It has not dulled one bit since I got it 4+ months ago and on top of that kershaw offers lifetime sharpening if you are able to dull the blade.

I bought my sig from tony from tjsportingarms hes a vendor here. He gave me the best price I could find and hes great to deal with.

NJ politicians are the ones screwing us the PD's are just following the laws set in place.Or at least most are, jackson PD hates gun owners im going on 6 months for 3 pistol permits.

Springfield 1911 A1 in 9mm is under 1k in shops around here, it can be had for less online im sure.

I was gonna get my gf the pepper blaster cause she works late sometimes, but knowing her she would shoot herself by accident checking it out when I would give it to her. So instead I bought myself a bunch of stuff hehe.

I called today about mine, I applied back in may im on 6 months now, lady said they are short handed as usual she actually remembered who i was though so I know at least im not forgotten i know one guy they lost his paperwork. I asked her if I could volunteer to help she laughed, i was semi serious, she told me though that my stuff only came back from the state recently. My paperwork only got sent up to get signed November 28th and that they send up 50 applications at a time and just recently got a batch out, I assume matty was in that batch since he just got his. Bottom line she was very friendly and I cant blame her its the cops "upstairs" and the chief that hold everything up. She was just giving me the impression that all 50k residents of Jackson were applying for permits I can understand a spike cause this town is getting crazy and we have less cops to "protect" us but give me a break. I think gun permits and everything associated with it should be centralized some where and not left to the towns.

I have the p229 enhanced elite and love its one of my favorites to shoot.

When I was in high school we had security guards but elementary and middle school didn't. I know some middle schools do now, during drills when I was in high school they had that walk around and check who should be in the building responsibility.

Teachers cant leave the children so they cant go out and check who should and shouldn't be in the building. Custodians and janitors are really the only personnel in a school building that are usually available at a moments notice to do things in general in a school. I remember in my school back in the day the janitors just hung out in their "break room" until called to clean up something or set up chairs for an assembly. Janitors are picked for that availability aspect, not because they are less of human beings or anything, to me it makes sense and if I was a janitor anywhere with that job I would be kinda proud I could be first line of defense in protecting children.

Personally I would go with either a cannon or rhino gun safe from costco they usually ship free and are just better values all around in that price point. Tractor supply co is good as well with their prices on safes.

I just finished building one and that price had me thinking about getting it for a future build.

Just an update, they removed the tumor and sent her for MRI to check to make sure they got all of it. It turned out they missed a piece and went back in and got it. She will have a MRI tomorrow to confirm its completely gone and if that's the case then she should be good. Then its just a matter of her resting and healing and avoiding infection, I appreciate everyone that shown concern and offered their positive energy and prayers, and it means alot to me and my family.

It's ok I would hope anyone that needs some prayers would speak up in their time of need. Your wifes situation is just as important as my niece's I will pray for your wife aswell.

I am not usually one to ask upon others for prayer or to keep me in thought, however for my niece I would do anything. Within the hour she will be going in for surgery,to remove a tumor from her brain. I ask anyone that is a religious ,spiritual or just believes in a higher power.Please keep her in your prayers and thoughts,so she will make it through this surgery and recover quickly.

Yeah but how much is an attorney going to charge to put some pressure on a police department,is it going to be 2 or 3 handguns worth the funds? If that's the case its not worth fighting for me, I would rather go the distance and file a law suit against my town and put my court and lawyer fees in the suit. I think if everyone that's well over the reasonable time filed a suit with their towns, things might change.

Good shooting for your first time for sure, once you get into the swing of things you will most likely buy your own gun and then ammo online and only pay about 1/2 what you did at SS since it was 38spec. Alot of people if they shoot weekly or few times a month go into reloading, it saves alot more money even from the online prices. If you plan on going back to SS make sure to mention your a NJGF member you get discount on range fee I believe its 10 dollars and you get their member pricing on ammo. Everyone on here is very friendly and always willing to offer a helping hand, if you get to the point of wanting to buy your own gun and you have a idea what guns you want to try. Make a thread and someone here is bound to have what you want to try and will meet up with you.

Usually when a gun is defective and is brand new ,under warranty. The manufacturer if they can not fix the issue after a few trys they will buy the gun back from you or give you credit toward another model. I've seen Remington do it for a few people that couldn't get issues resolved on their shotguns. Dealers are suppose to be the customers advocate to the manufacture and help keep pressure on manufacture to do right thing.

Departments get away with breaking that 30 day time frame because there is no rules on how long their investigation period has to be. Right now my paperwork is sitting in the magazine rack in the chiefs bathroom. I wrote a letter to the mayor on my last round of permits that took 4 months to get.His hands are tied, because the chief and him hate each other and they are having some legal battle over a budget. This why I hope frank from nj second amendment society can work some magic against state police and create a guide line that local pd's can't abuse.

I'm at 6 months waiting in Jackson for 3 permits.

Haha that's correct that is the place

Then if this passes you would be able to but where you could bring it is unknown for reasons I mentioned.

Short answer is no, No you cant carry in jersey if you live here most of the year regardless of what permits you have, your home state needs to be a state that will issue you a carry permit. This law basically gives people that live in the "good" states the right to go through or work in jersey without fear of going to jail for 7 years if they are carrying. However jersey is still tricky because gun zones aren't really set up, no one really gets a carry permit unless its job related here. So going into target department store with your gun is a risk,although you may be allowed to carry in the state you don't know if target has a law against carrying in their stores. Restaurants may be taking up the same no gun rules however they never had to post it in their windows since pretty much no one gets to carry a gun.

You dont need a sponsor to join, it doesn't make a difference as far as your joining process. It is basically a referral and the persons badge number you put down as your reference ,they get a discount on their yearly membership for getting someone to join.
