  1. I stand behind my statements just as hard as i stand behind my rights as an american. ha and that includes my right to free speech and expression on what i think. New Jersey has to lead the way when it comes to gun control. other states are making it easy to get firearms in the hands of people who should not have them. and its causing problems.. other states are making it easy and its putting our 2nd amendment right in jeopardy. i Mean what do we care? it will still be the same here. Its my opinion that boths sides of the argument have good points. We will never get anywhere in this fight unless we take the other side into consideration and make changes. But they have to be willing to do the same. thats all im saying about that. as for loughner.. if he lived in nj it never would of happened. and thats fact. if arizona had nj gun laws he would of been throwing rocks instead of shooting. fact. NJ needs to step up and lead the way.. so people will have to wait..yea it absolutly sucks! but thats life. And dont think for 1 second that if washington revoked our 2nd amendment right i wouldnt be standing outside of the whitehouse protesting along with the millions of other gun owners across our nation. But i truely believe its not there intenet to do that. yea.. they might want to do that.. but know they cannot. Its my opinion that states just need to come up with stricter processing thats all.
  2. Im not really understanding all this. Government doesnt seem to want to take away our 2nd amendment right. All there saying is that they want to make it harder for people to buy there firearms across our country.. well hello people we live in New Jersey haha how much harder could it get here? I believe NJ should be the state to lead the way for all of the other states. Other states where its so easy to buy and carry are the states with the highest gun crime rates and they should adopt our way of processing, i mean i dont wish the ridiculous waiting time on any one in any state but ya know what if thats what we have to do in order to keep the gun crime in america down and maybe just maybe they might relax on these anti gun outbursts in washington. Now im pro 2nd amendment all the way, but im also a logical person that believes that criminals will have them no matter what the laws are and they arent really concerneced about gun laws or any laws for that matter... i understand that defenetly correct.. thats why we need to get these criminals, especially violent ones off the street, and we need to get the mentally impared help as well so they dont get there hands on firearms and do dumb things. and ya know what that all falls on our government as well. So i see it like this... we are never going to win this pro gun vs. anti gun fight unless both sides stop arguing over whos right and whos wrong or who makes a better point. We need to work together to solve this issue. Guns ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE. And neither is ANTI GUN SUPPORTERS. so both sides need to come up with what ever they need to come with in order to at least bring some calmness to this issue. Jared Loughner wouldnt of gotten a gun here. Not with his drug paraphanalia charge he had on his record, which i might add that he recently just got. He would of walked into a gun store they would of done his background check in the store by our state police.. seen he was a drug user and they would of told him to beat it out of the store so fast his head would be spinning. and i know that drug parphanilia is not a felony, so is that a loop hole in other states? u can be a drug user and own firearms just as long as your a drug user that does not have a felony? Because i Know for a fact in new jersey that wouldnt happen. ive seen 40 year old men get denied here in nj for pissing on someones lawn back when they were 19 drunk at a party and got arrested. So it goes twords my point.. Other states do make it to easy.. NEW JERSEY must lead the way in my opinion.
  3. 1. Application type (FID/permit w/ existing FID): 2 PP 2. Police Department where you applied. Galloway 3. Name of the person you dealt with at the PD. Harvey Bird 4.

  4. got the letter in the mail today. 2 pistol permits ready to be picked up. 31 days.
  5. Yea i went and looked at a couple glocks. 19, 22, and i think the other one was a 21.. i liked all of them.
  6. Im going to look into it. Maybe it might be easier if i decide on a caliber first then start looking around.. Im only 21 so being able to afford ammo is important. And i dont own a pistol yet so i never really had to pay attention to how much pistol ammo costs. i just heard that certain calibers were hard to find. I try to keep a certain amount of ammo for each of my long guns. and plan to do the same when i get the pistol collection started for each one.
  7. Ive gone to a couple shops in my local area, its just hard hard to make up my mind because there are alot that I like. The thing is I havent shot alot of them. Ive only shot some of them. So Im going to have to get out there and start shooting a variety of pistols. which i have access to for free threw a family member. Will be out there this week on my day off. I have some time because im wating for my permits to come in.
  8. lol im new to this site still learning the ins and outs. And thanks for the info. im just going to hold on to it. thanks again. i just wasnt really sure the details on it and i havent really talked to anyone about the rifle. just did research on websites. but couldnt really find anything useful. so i figured id throw it out there on here. figuring one of u guys would have sum info on it. thanks. i appreciate it.
  9. THIS RIFLE IS NOT FOR SALE! I have a Winchester model 94 lonestar commemorative 30/30. Never been shot. Made in 1970. Perfect condition. no scratches no dinks. I have the original box, and original warrenty papers. It came in a set of 2 rifles. My cousin has the other rifle at his house with original box and papers. these rifles have all types of gold emblems engraved into the stock. Was wondering if anyone had any kind of idea what this rifle is worth? Ive looked around online and see different prices.. I dont want to sell it because i know the older it gets the more its worth.
  10. Hows the availablity on .45 acp ammo? ammo is also a concern of mine. what good is my new pistol if i can find ammo? ive been told .40 is hard to find. well at least thats what i hear..
  11. I have a uncle on the police force who has a whole bunch of pistols. I didnt really want to ask him what he thinks because I kno hes going to point me in the glock direction. Not saying that glock is bad or anything, im thinking about getting one. i just dont want to be pointed in one direction without seeing what else is out there for me. Ill ask him to bring out what hes got, i know he has a different variety..
  12. Both. And caliber.. Ive been thinking about a 45 just because i have some experience shooting them. (1911) but im also a glock fan as well so..
  13. Looking to get my first handgun. Have a whole bunch of long guns. But Iam contemplating on what handgun to get first, what should I get? Looking to spend no more than $700..
  14. ill fill you in when i get them. hopefully it will be quick
  15. ill give it 60 days. after that im going to push the situation with the local police. DOnt want it sitting on someones desk for 3 months
  16. I just turned 21 on Jan 2nd 2011. and looking to purchase my first handgun.I applied for my FID back in 2009 when I was 19 and it took exactly 2 months to the day. Anyway I just applied for 2 pistol permits on January 12th. Quick and easy, the officer told me i didnt need any references and needed no additional fingerprinting. Basically my question is does anyone have any idea how long the pistol permit process will take? I live in Galloway Township (Atlantic County) if that even matters..
