Reloaderz NJ finally making progress
Considering that this place is just 10 minutes or less from me, I'm watching it closely. A friend of mine took a look at it, and reported that it is really impressive. How much should a range cost? It's simple economics. What people are willing to pay determines what they can charge. I pay $130 a year for my membership at Cherry Ridge (senior rate), and I love it there. But I also have a gold membership at GFH, because I like shooting handguns, shotguns, and pistol caliber carbines there. Plus, I like GFH when the weather is less than perfect. I'm way too old to be sitting outdoors shooting when there's snow on the ground and the temperature is below freezing.

Uh oh! Could Florida CCW permits be in jeopardy?
True. I just renewed mine a couple of weeks ago. Should be good for at least the next 7 years, but who knows what's going to happen. I've thought the same thing. My wife and I were looking to get a place there, but we're rethinking it following this election. Maybe South Carolina? That's still looking solidly red.

Uh oh! Could Florida CCW permits be in jeopardy?
One of the less-discussed recounts going on in Florida is the one for agricultural commissioner, which is significant to us because that is the agency in charge of issuing concealed carry permits. "The answer is that capturing the Florida agricultural commissioner’s post would be a key victory in liberal and progressive push for gun control. As the Tampa Bay Times notes, Florida is unusual in that the Florida agricultural commissioner, rather than the courts or other law enforcement, is the entity that regulates and controls things like concealed carry permits: Read more: https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/11/florida_election_frauds_hidden_guncontrol_agenda.html#ixzz5Wq4to3ps

CCI 22lr- free shipping on 10
I have loads of that ammo, and I swore I wan't going to buy any more for awhile, but that is too good a price to resist.

Magazine Ban Upheld
FWIW, I just spent $350 on some 10 round mags to prevent most of my guns from being turned into either clubs or paperweights in a few weeks. I still need quite a few more, but at least I've taken care of some of them. Going to box up all my so called "LCM's" and store them out of state until I can get out of here.

Shotgun transport with ammo
Thanks Dave. Yes, I'm aware of that. I have a copy of the Orange Bible, and I try to pay attention. My original question was can one have a few shells in a side saddle mounted on the gun for easier access? I suspect that might be a bridge to far.

Shotgun transport with ammo
Certainly, there's no harm in doing it that way if you're headed to the range or a competition. My question (OP) was geared more toward having a shotgun available for defensive use, should the need arise. So I was looking at what would be the minimal requirement for transport and storage. Sometimes it goes that way.

I hear that from a lot of people. They haven't completely given up on it, but they have seriously lost interest. They don't even know that ____ died!

NJ SUPREME COURT TO ISSUE OPINION THIS MONDAY ON JILLARD CASE!
I'm pretty sure NJ Supreme Court is not on a track to SCOTUS. I believe that's the end of the line for this. To appeal higher up, it would have to go through the federal courts.

Formal Instruction?
Pretty good chance I'm going to be at the Friday class. (He's going to be giving it on both Friday and Saturday.) Which one will you be attending?

NH CCW question
Anyone except someone who is prohibited from owning firearms is allowed to carry a concealed weapon in New Hampshire without the need for a permit. From the state's website: https://www.nh.gov/safety/divisions/nhsp/newsevents/2017/20170222-concealed-carry.htm

CCW - justifiable need for doctors to carry (NJ)
Just got back from a wonderful trip to Maine, including a visit to Acadia for some sightseeing and hiking. They have Constitutional carry up there (except for in the park, for some reason), which means that anyone who is not an otherwise prohibited person can carry a concealed firearm with no required training or credentials. It works just fine there, as it does in the other 11 or so states that have the same provision. But in NJ, politicians and anti-gun activists continue to insist, "But it's different here."

How many guns in your CCW rotation do you have?
I carry a Springfield Armory 9 mm mod. 2 subcompact in an IWB holster (usually at 4:00, but occasionally appendix carry) whenever I have the opportunity. I have thought about carrying either my Glock 19 or 26, but have never actually done so. I like the grip safety on the SA, because I feel that if I get some clothing or anything else in the trigger guard while I am re-holstering, I will be less like to have a negligent discharge.
