Moving and need new places to shoot
I'm in the process of moving from north Jersey down to Seaside Park. I have been a bit spoiled by having been a member at Gun for Hire since they opened, which is a wonderful range with service second to none. Additionally, I have enjoyed being able to shoot outdoors at beautiful Cherry Ridge. I am aware of We Shoot, which is an OK range about a half hour away. I put in an application for membership at Central Jersey RPC, but I understand they have a long waiting list. It is my understanding that Shooters, which is only a half hour away, has closed its range. Can anyone offer suggestions on other places to shoot that are within a half hour or so from Seaside Park?

Sub2000 legal question
Thanks MG. Those were pretty much the same as my thoughts, and I appreciate the affirmation.

Legal Concealed Carry Triggers Hospital Lockdown
I believe the requirement to unload the gun vs. just removing the holster with the gun intact, is both onerous and dangerous. This needs to be changed, but the problem is that these laws are being challenged on so many fronts that it's difficult to get to everything.

"Maryland Answers Biden's Call"
Seems like the blue states are locked in a fierce battle to see which can be the worst tramplers on the 2A.

Sub2000 legal question
I'm considering keeping mine in the back of my Jeep Wrangler. Per NJ law, it would have to be stored unloaded. Does anyone know how that is defined? Can I keep it in a backpack with a couple of loaded mags in a separate pouch on that same backpack? How about with a mag inserted, but no round chambered?

Concealed Carry for Women... and the Sad Dearth of Good Options
Every time I read USCCA magazine, I think of this thread. They have a wonderful women's section that generally has an article with photos showing women with concealed handguns in various outfits.

Colorado Goes For Broke On Gun Ban
I believe the conventional answer (which admittedly I have not researched) is that Californians, sick of the far left policies in their home state, moved en masse to Colorado, and ruined that state by bringing their same awful politics with them.

This Morning at Cherry Ridge
Love that place! Haven't been there in awhile. It's usually best to avoid the weekends, if possible, but looks like it's pretty quiet there this morning. (Or, I guess that was yesterday morning.)

Happy Easter
Happy Easter to all my friends here who celebrate. And wishing a wonderful day as well to those who don't.

NICS in NJ is a disgrace!
Unless I'm reading things wrong, I believe we can carry almost anywhere. I think our glass is more than half full.

New SUB2000 Gen 3: Folds up with optics!
Has anyone gotten one of these? If so, what optic did you get with it? I'm seriously thinking about getting one to keep in my car in Florida.

Moving to NJ, trying to make sense of the firearm laws
- South Carolina Reciprocity?
Looks like SC finally got around to passing Constitutional carry (sort of).- Sig Romeo 5 optic - $110 @ Primary Arms
Looks like I'm a dollar short and a day late on this one. And sadly, I'm going to need an optic for the Sub2000 gen. 3 that I'm probably going to purchase. I have a few of those Romeo 5's, and love the shake awake feature, where you can keep them stored ready for use and the red dot comes on as soon as you pick them up.- New budget to double or more all firearm related permits
We are clearly the low hanging fruit for revenue production to Murphy. Try charging a poll tax and watch the left scream bloody murder.- Carry Trainer?

I've seen some of his videos, and they appear to be solid. I see that he is giving a three day class in Parlin, NJ June 8-10th, 2024. I'm seriously considering attending, but as that's a big commitment of time and $, I'm wondering if anyone has trained with him (Mickey Schuch), or has any other intel about his classes?- If the police are illegally shooting at me, can I shoot back?
That, plus the mindlessness of just dumping one mag after another, without even stopping to think about what they are doing, presumably until they run out of ammo. Wonder what their plan was if there was still a threat after that?- If the police are illegally shooting at me, can I shoot back?
Interesting discussion by William Kirk on Washington Gun Law about a recent case. Damn, those police fired a lot of shots! They just kept reloading and mag dumping. How to respond to something like that?- Carry Restrictions. What's Current?
I believe you were GTG. Hope you had an enjoyable meal. The part about not consuming alcohol while armed I may have heard from Nappen. Even if not strictly required legally, it’s good advice anyway.- South Carolina Reciprocity?
Yes, South Carolina is an odd bird on CCW, considering that they are a fairly deep red state. Last I heard, they were on the verge of going Consitutional/permitless carry, so that might be your best hope.- How big is your stockpile?
Most of the time these stories are about a guy having "an arsenal" of 10-15 firearms and a few thousand rounds of ammunition, so it's ho-hum. But this was truly impressive (OK, except maybe for the shotguns).- How big is your stockpile?

I believe this is correct, with the caveat that if it's a BYO, you can't consume any alcohol.- Glock 43X - pro's and cons?
I just did a quick check and found out that Gun For Hire has many Glocks available for rental, including the 43x and 48. Might be worth the drive for you to check them out. BTW, it's a pretty impressive place, well worth seeing. - South Carolina Reciprocity?
