Old Glock guy

My first gun, and only one when I joined the forum, was a Glock. (I now own five.) And, well, I'm pretty old. It's not very creative, but it's a variation of a screen name I use on another site for a different interest. Maybe we could talk about this more at our pajama party.

Seconded.

I'm usually good Tuesday-Friday. I'm in north Jersey, so depending on who ends up going, that would be my preference.

Ugh! So disappointing.

I would be potentially interested, depending on the where and when.

Happy New Year to all! Hope to run into more forum members in 2016, either at the range or at social gatherings involving adult beverages.

Gee willikers, maybe we could find a forum member close to all of us who would host a pajama party sleepover, where we can stay up all night and talk about our feelings and our hobbies while we eat s'mores and drink hot cocoa!

45Doll, you post some good articles. Wish I could remember all those historical facts when I'm talking to some of the antis. And yes, isn't it an embarrassing tragedy that our state is held up as an example of what's wrong with firearms laws.

I already donated the equivalent of 4-5 boxes of 9mm this morning. I think NJ2AS is a good group doing a lot to try to improve the woeful firearms laws in our state.

It is my understanding that there is no Castle Doctrine in NJ. One has a duty to retreat, even in his home, and can only use deadly force when confronted with the threat of death or serious bodily harm to himself or others in the house. Oh, and welcome to the forum! There is indeed a lot to learn about NJ firearms laws. This forum is generally a much better source than LEO's or people at your LGS.

Dwight and Nick, thanks for the update. Please keep us informed, and let us know what we can do to help.

Any word on whether or not GFH is getting lots of questions for Scott Bach?

Hey Newtonian, you sure about that? I'm not exactly sure what you're saying, but if I'm understanding that correctly, you're on some shaky ground I agree with the rest of your post about CR being a pleasant place to shoot, particularly on a nice day during the week.

I'm in, but I don't think they "need" a particular number of signatures. I believe it's just a matter of setting a goal that will be substantial and impressive.

Holy crap, is that an article or a book? Looks interesting. I'll have to get back to it when I have more time.

Forgive me if this has already been mentioned in this long thread, but if the AG's of Pennsylvania and Virginia can summarily and unilaterally decide not to honor out-of-state concealed carry permits, then it seems that our AG or governor should likewise be able to decree that self-defense represents "justifiable need."

I liked it! Thanks Shawn.

If you can work things out between yourselves, why would you need a mediator? Can't you just use one of those generic divorce agreements (like Legal Zoom, or something like that), and hire a real estate lawyer to handle the details of the transaction? Having been through it myself, I would agree with you that the more you can keep,the lawyers out of it, the better off both of you will be, financially and otherwise. I wish you the best of luck.

To the OP, what town as that? I was pleased that my recent set in Wayne took around two weeks. Not sure, but I believe they have been using more discretion in whether or not to check references.

A $500 fine? That's harsh! Seriously, my AR is a Stag Arms and I love it! Sorry to hear that they are such knuckleheads.

I cast my vote for the AR-15 as well. Easier to handle, ammo is readily available, and if I am not mistaken, the ammo is much more affordable, so your crew can practice more while they are waiting for the S to HTF.

Maybe he thought he won one of those NRA giveaways?

That was exactly my thought! I got excited when I read the heading, then as I read the rest of the report, my hopes dropped. SOS

Did you know that more bears are killed with hammers and clubs than with guns? Or I might have just made that up. ;-)

In a perfect world you would have both: precious metals to preserve your wealth and ammo to defend it.
