Old Glock guy

I wonder how many youngsters here are going to get that reference. I've taken several new shooters to the range this year, but I'm not sure exactly how many. I like Mrs. Peel's quantifiable goals.

If I were you, I would check with NJSP just to be safe. Actually, that's pretty funny! Nicely done. I posted on here once how whenever I see an ad for "Big Sale on Magazines," I'm usually disappointed to find out they're talking about periodicals.

Nice, sad account. Brought a tear to my eye.

Give or take a detail or two, that is almost exactly my situation. I also had a few rifles that needed 10 round mags. The total cost for replacements so far was over $400, and I still have a few more that I need. I emphatically agree that while the chances of ever getting caught are slim, the consequences are dire. I hope you are right in your last paragraph, but I'm doubtful that we will ever see NJ's oppressive laws overturned. As for the masses that others have mentioned who don't even know about this new law, my prediction is that they will probably not get prison time, but that they will become felons who will lose their right to own firearms in all 50 states.

Me three.

That looked like she was doing magic tricks! I hate to say it, but she missed the opportunity for an ankle holster or two.

No, they only go en banc when the libs lose. Next stop: SCOTUS, which has never been more favorable to us in our lifetimes.

I have no doubt that's true. Sworn officers have a duty to pursue trouble, while the rest of us are free (and even encouraged) to run away from it, if at all possible.

On another note, we're all plugged into this, but I can't believe how many gun owners in NJ have no idea about these new restrictions.

Here's a good three minute video that illustrates the difference between a competitor and self defense shooter going through a course of fire: Hey, my 3000th post! I kind of expected balloons and fireworks, or something like that.

Well, not a bad deal if you only have a couple of mags. Pretty sure that's not the case for most of us. But seriously, if you store mags somewhere in the state, how would get them back out after the law goes into effect without risking a felony conviction?

Every time I see a thread about PSA, I start thinking it's time to get my prostate checked again. TMI? Seriously, they have some nice looking AK's as well, but they refuse to ship them to our godforsaken state.

Sportsman's Guide is currently selling them. I think it's good to have a couple of dozen on hand for emergencies, but IMHO, you're better off with a lot of freeze-dried foods for long-term storage.

Amen to that, brother! As for simply not complying, agreed the chances of getting caught are slim (unless you're posting about it on an internet forum), but the consequences are severe, namely a felony conviction. Even if you escape prison time, you lose your right to own firearms in all 50 states.

Training Day aside... I can't recall ever having an issue with my P320, and I am not the most fastidious cleaner and lubricator of my firearms.

Damn, can't believe I just saw this today! I'm less than 10 minutes from there, and would like to have taken a peek.

I just boxed up all my evil "high capacity" magazines over the weekend, to send them out to PA, until I can get them to a safe haven out of NJ. The whole time I was packaging them, I kept thinking how much safer I was making our beloved state. Still waiting for all the conforming mags I ordered from Gun Mag Warehouse to arrive.

Some good advice here. Thanks so much! W2MC, I ended up purchasing that Stack-on locker/cabinet from Wal-Mart, which was perhaps slightly larger than the one I posted, and at a price that was a third less. For that price, even if I end up just storing my gym clothes in there, it was a bargain!

Anyone have experience with gun lockers like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Stack-GCB-18C-Convertible-Security-Cabinet/dp/B002TOKR1M?psc=1&SubscriptionId=AKIAJ4TDBSYBFUKZ6DKA&tag=reenajat-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B002TOKR1M Obviously, they are easier to break into than a heavy safe, and they are not fireproof. But besides the lower cost, they are a lot lighter and easier to install or move around. Thinking about using one as an interim solution until I can get out of NJ, in conjunction with a home security system. Anyone here have experience with them, or any further thoughts or considerations?

Guilty! I may be naive, but I love my C39v2. Seriously, I did a little research, and people seem to like them as much as I do. I also have a Saiga (which I have only semi-converted), and I like that too.

I'm mostly a beer and wine guy, but when I have a mixed drink, it is almost always a manhattan, as befitting an old guy like me.

Caldwell looked like he had won on election night, but now after the recount, staunchly anti-gun Nikki Fried has won it. Perhaps having De Santis in the governor spot might help, at least for now.

Yes, I stand corrected. In the past they worshiped the First, but lately they have become intolerant of speech with which they do not agree.

Not sure if this has been said, but I would encourage all new shooters to get involved in Second Amendment activism. The left love the First Amendment, but hate the Second. We are in a constant battle with them to preserve our constitutionally protected right to own firearms. Join the organizations that fight for us, stay informed on the issues (no better place to do so than NJGF), and be ready and willing to contact legislators, rally, write letters to newspapers, and do whatever it takes to protect the Second Amendment.

I'll drink to that!
