States Concerned Supreme Court Gun Case Undermines Local Gun Control Can De Blasio really be such an idiot as to believe that the people perpetrating gun violence in the major cities are applying for carry permits?

Luckily for us, I don't think they will have time to get the court packed that soon.

Isn't it supposed to be that if they can't get the check done in three days, they have to process the transaction without it? I believe that's federal law, but I guess it doesn't pertain in NJ?

Welcome aboard! Lots of good folks and good info here.

Constitution be damned, they control our entire state government, so they will pass whatever the hell they want and dare SCOTUS to come after them (which, of course, they won't).

Sorry, I've been away and just saw this. I could get you the two boxes. Where are you located?

You are limited to 6 in the tube. The one in the chamber doesn't count.

The Federal is gone, but I still have plenty of the CCI AR Tactical available, at least the 10 boxes listed, and I could probably dig up a few more if someone really wants them.

Rifleman ended up taking 6, so I have at least 4 left to sell, but I could probably come up with a few more if someone really wants them.

Yeah, sad but true. It adds over $100 to the cost of an ounce of gold, over and above the premium. Then CG on the way out.

I hate you for putting the idea in my head! Now it's only a matter of time...

Depending on your location, you might consider a trip up to Thunder Mountain in Ringwood. If you can get there during the week, it's generally pretty quiet. They have practice trap stations where the clays are just moving away from you, and the instructors will go through the mechanics of shotgun operation and have you breaking clays in no time, (at no additional charge). Probably worth the trip, as it will surely allay your anxieties.

Curious how other NJ residents are dealing with the sales tax issue in acquiring PM's?

Nice find! That's what I paid for mine about a year and a half ago, my first revolver. As someone pointed out to me, at that price it's almost free. It's a fun little gun, perhaps a bit of a pain to load and unload, but it's fine with cheap ammo.

Sell it! Even if you have to take a loss. Reloading is a part-time job. There are people who love it, and appreciate the benefits. But it doesn't get you ammo in bad times, because you still need to be able to find the components, which become scarce when ammo is scarce. Larry Potterfield lists five reasons for reloading: save money, improve accuracy, they don't make it anymore, the satisfaction of doing it yourself, and one more that I don't recall. Eventually this shortage will die down, and when it does, I would recommend buying ammo whenever you see it at reasonable prices. It lasts virtually forever, so just buy it and store it. Over the last few years, I found myself buying whenever I saw a good deal, thinking that perhaps I was needlessly accumulating too much. Turns out, there's no such thing as too much. No one has enough ammo to last forever, but it's nice to have enough to last a long while.

There are a lot of reasons to hold gold and sliver, these being among them. The problem with gold is that one ounce coins or bars contain so much value, that it would be hard to spend them as a barter medium in a case where the currency collapses. Many people advocate owning bags of 90% silver pre-1964 U.S. coins for the potential of using them for smaller purchases. The biggest problem with silver that I see is that after you start to accumulate a decent amount, it gets pretty damn heavy and nearly impossible to tote around. Another huge problem I have discovered is that the State of NJ charges sales tax on precious metal purchases, so one would need to add nearly 7% to the cost of owning it, on top of the premium, or around an additional $100 on an ounce of gold. I believe this makes the cost prohibitive, unless you can have it shipped out of state somewhere, or held in the vault of a reliable seller.

Welcome aboard! Lots of great info on these boards. Tell us about yourself: where you shoot, what you shoot, etc.

I'm speaking, of course, of Senator Joe Manchin. He's pretty much all we have keeping the Dems from nuking the filibuster and forcing their radical far left agenda down our throats. I would suggest everyone call and/or write to urge him to stand strong. I've heard that Senators Kyrsten Sinema and John Tester, other Democrats in red states, might also be sympathetic to us.

Last time I was at Shooters NJ in Little Egg Harbor they had a huge inventory, but that was a few months ago. I believe Dajonga from this board works there, so perhaps he can weigh in.

Damn, that's got to be brutal for ammo suppliers like them. Let's hope that they and others can remain in business until things settle down.

Maybe priced too high? Going to knock $10 a box off each of them, so the Federal for $70 per box of 525, the CCI $50 per box of 300. Also, going to remove the limit, so feel free to take as much as you like. First to post "I'll take it" here gets the sale.

20 Boxes of 100 rounds each, $25 per box. (Yes, I've seen it for $10 a box when it's sold out, but in-stock seems to be going for a minimum of .26 per round when you can find it.) Minimum of 2 boxes, or buy as many as you like. Located in Wayne, so probably best to meet at Reloaderz, or I'm in Seaside Park a lot, so can meet near there. Buyer will need FID and matching DL. First to post "I'll take it" here gets the deal. Please indicate how many boxes you would like to purchase.

Looking to lighten my inventory in anticipation of a move in the not too distant future, and perhaps help out some fellow NJGF members as well, so selling: 10 Boxes of Federal Champion .22 LR 36 grain JHP 525 bulk pack, $80 per box. 10 Boxes of CCI AR Tactical .22LR 40 grain CPRN 300 rounds, $60 per box. I believe these are fair prices in the current market, based on recent in-stock selling prices I have found (actually these are toward the low end), but feel free to pm me if you have evidence to the contrary. I'm going to limit this to three boxes per person to give more people a shot, and to limit reselling at a higher price. As these are potentially handgun ammo, buyer will need FID and matching DL. I'm in Wayne, so my first choice for a meeting spot would be Reloaderz, but I'm also down in Seaside Park fairly often, so I would be happy to meet somewhere near there. First people to post "I'll take it" on this thread get the ammo while it lasts.

Yes, we're hanging on by our fingernails with the filibuster, a tradition that has been around for over 150 years to ensure that sweeping legislation has bipartisan support. IIRC, when the Republicans were in charge from 2017-2019, it was the filibuster that prevented us from getting national concealed carry. But the Dems and the media are promoting the narrative that their agenda is so righteous that obstructionist Republicans should not be allowed to prevent the American people from experiencing the full benefit of the leftist agenda.

No, not my wedding anniversary. I joined NJ Gun Forums 10 years ago today, on 3/11/2011. It's been a happy marriage for me.
