Open Carry Phily Incident Charges Filed
We will see what direction the state is going in September, who knows what will really happen but I am not holding my breath just yet. However i would really like to have both available, no that I want to OC, I only CC but I like that fact that if something happened, I fell, moved in a way that displayed my firearm, I would like to be covered but the ability to OC. By the way, I mention falling, well you know why. Harry

Cleaning Pistol Brass
Well in preparation for starting my hobby within a hobby I have a question about case preparation. I plan on starting off with Pistol only (9MM and 40 S&W) and I have been saving all the brass from my time at the range. I am using all new ammo and just keeping that, I don't collect any other brass being I don't know it's history and for someone new to this I want to know what I am using. Now I plan on getting a tumbler rather than a vibratory unit, I plan on using Stainless Steel media over the others that are commonly used. I think I'm good so far, I have seen that Rifle case prep is a lot more involved vs. pistol case prep, however I was wondering if there is anything wrong with cleaning my once fired brass with the old primers still in them and when I go to reload them I de-prime and then prime on the press. Or is that an advantage to de-priming them and them cleaning them? This is for Pistol brass only, I'll touch on Rifle ammo down the road when and if I decide to reload them. Harry

911
If you had to shoot as a last resort to protect yourself or family, You tell them you feared for your life, there was no chance of retreat and you wold like to refrain from further comment because it has been a traumatic experience. The only person you should talk to from there should be a lawyer. There are many cases that people started talking, said something that was either a heat of the moment utterance, or taken the wrong way. There is no need to resolve the event right then and there.

Open Carry Phily Incident Charges Filed
Just to let you know, I don't think the majority of the people here want to abolish law enforcement, actually if you read what a lot of us as you call it PRO GUN types are NOT against Punishment of Criminals. What we are against are the laws that contradict the Constitution. We will bring up these rights and they are not a Privilege, they are a right, and with that being said, many of us, I can't say all but I'd bet more than 99.9999% of us want stronger punishment for criminals who use a gun in a crime, a real crime, not a home invasion where the legal homeowner defends them selves or like scenario. I do have to ask, what gun laws on the books in NJ really prevent crimes with a firearm in this state? I may be one sided on the issue, but I see gun laws that do not conform to what was written in the constitution do NOTING to prevent crime but only restrict the law abiding gun owners from there given rights in this country. Also I will agree LEO visibility is a deterrent, but you can not be every where all the time and you job is not to protect me as an individual, is it? Why am I not afforded the right to protect myself and my family outside the home? I would bet you might feel a little different if you while off duty were only able to defend yourself and family at home but out and about your free game like the rest of us. You have to understand, we as a group are not anti LEO, but like the old saying as to the question on why I carry a gun, because caring a cop is too heavy does have some Merritt. Harry

Closest range to Neptune?
Shore Shot as Lunker said, and lots of us will recommend SS for they are great with forum members, we get discounts there, the range is good and the RO's are great. Harry

JUST GOT MY PERMIT!!!
Cool, you got your FID and PP's. Now go and put in for 6 more PP and get to buying something. Ray Ray had a nice wheel gun for sale. Remember pictures of what you get are a requirement. Harry

My son was threaten by a classmate to be shot in the head
Damn, what a change from what was going on just a few days ago. Just keep a level head, (not doubting you won't be) but sometime things like this take a unseen turn, but well though out and exercising any and all options for a resolution that is satisfactory to you can be had. Just don't get discouraged and think this through, remember the squeaky wheel get the oil. Harry

1CaseFedAE 9mm $190 shipped GB Auction now
It's not a bad price. If I didn't have a couple 1000 of 9mm around I would be getting some, but I am saving my brass now for my planned start of my new reloading hobby Harry

Cherry Ridge
Guy should have been tossed out for the day and told we don't do that stuff here and if you know a range that allows that, please let us all know where it is so we can avoid it. Harry

Is this a shooter?
If you are questioning if the guns are safe to fire, I do doubt anyone would be able to say for sure over the internet. I would if I were you do a service on them and inspect everything and clean and lube them and make them ready for the range. Now if your not comfortable with that, I would bring them to a gun smith and have them do a once over. Also have them tell you a little about them. Seems that you still need info on them and a gun smith should be able to help you out with that. As far as needing a FID to transport them, NO you do not as long as they are being transported the proper way for NJ, and going to a range or Gun Smith are 2 of the locations you can go with them. Also how about posting some pic's, there are plenty of people here who probably know exactly what gun they are and probably give you some history about it also. Harry

* UPDATE - New here... Wife just applied for FID/PP - UPDATE
My PD (Sayreville) when they did my Wifes FID at the initial time we were there they did the finger print on the FID card that would to be completed as the process and completed after the references, background checks and mental health came back good and completed. Also the PP's that she also put in for at the same time they filled them out and had her sign them. When everything is completed and returned to the PD and then the Captain signs them they are mailed out. The last PP's I got, and her FID and PP were in our mailbox the day after it was signed by the Captain. Not sure if other PD's do it this way, but I kind of like it. Harry

WHAT??? It is not US GUYS, it's not a privilege, it is a RIGHT. Not sure what part of the 2A is so hard to understand by many, but if you look at other states and there respect to the 2A and see how crime statistics correlate, lets call them "Friendly States" I would think any law enforcement officer would not object to Law Abiding Citizens CC/OC. Please tell me 1 Gun Law that actually prevents crime because the way I see it, criminals don't care about the law or they wouldn't be breaking it in the first place, Gun Laws only restrict Law Abiding Citizens, Period.

My first purchase - Glock 17 Gen 4
It is money well spent, and let me tell you, you will be thinking about getting a second one as a backup just in case something happens the the first one. Once you use one you won't want to load a mag again with out one. Harry

we all missed it.
You guy sand your sport bikes, man I will say even though they are not my style and I just chose not to ride one, I am very impressed by there performance. I grew up building old rigid chops both HD and Triumph. I am more of a sit back relax and enjoy whats around me, but the sport bikes I would get hurt on, just knowing I could twist the wick and turn telephone pols into picket fences or lend them till my knees scrape to road is just more than I need. I know my limitations and even though I push the Harley from time to time it's nothing compared to them or the wingers who have very impressive performance. As far as being a poser, I am what I am, I ride what i ride, don't really give a crap what anyone rides, but I do get a kick out of the new rider these days. I was on my way to a weekend party in IL a bunch of years ago. I stopped in a Denny's in WV for lunch and here is this big motor home with tandem axle trailer. I won't fault anyone for putting their bike on a trailer but they come out, 2 guys and there other half's all decked out in leathers, chaps, looking like they just rode all night long. I did have to laugh at that if you know what I mean. I did all the big runs years ago, way too many trailer queens and people who don't know how to ride and just drink get drunk, try and ride and hurt themselves or someone else so I gave up on them years ago. I would say, lets go for a ride, but not to every offend anyone I don't really ride with others, I find I like to make my own pace, stop when I want and if doing X-country I usually do 16 to 20 hours the first day to make good time and most don't like doing that. Plus there are only about 5 people I will ride with, but they are the type that will do 2 per lane handlebar to handlebar types and we know each other very well and our riding abilities. however if you see me on the bike at one of the ranges, please come up introduce yourself, I am not an unfriendly guy at all. I just guess I am set in my ways, how I ride and where I ride and been doing it that way long before bikes, especially HD and Customs became a fad. Like they say, 25 Miles and 25 grand don't make you a biker. Harry

USPSA Old Bridge 5/22/11
Won't be able to make it, will be in a tent at the AHDRA races in Numedia PA and that weekend with some a bunch of other people. I'll try and make the June one if I can but July looks to be the best bet at this time due to vacation coverages at work. Boy I can't wait to retire, it will leave me so much more time to do what I want. Harry

Friends of the NRA, Bayonne NJ
I won't be able to make it, but if Anthony from GFH is a part of it, I'd bet it's going to be done right. Not sure where it was done last year, but if it was GFH and there were some grumblings about anything, I'd bet dollars to donuts that any previous issues won't be an issue this year. Also it more about the point of what it is for and what it supports when it's all said and done. Harry

My first purchase - Glock 17 Gen 4
Very nice, Congratulations on the FIRST purchase because if your anything like many around here, it won't be your last. I gave the Gen 3 of this gun and really like it but and have many others but it's a darn good first choice that you won't be disappointed with at all. Great all around fun and practical gun to have in the stable. Harry
