Old Glock guy

I think most of us would be quite surprised if SCOTUS heard this case.

My town will do it. I believe most will. This has been discussed before. You may be able to obtain additional info by using the search feature (hint).

Sounds like they are not taking this seriously. Hold their feet to the fire Nick!

Those are a couple of really good articles that should be required reading among conservatives.

Welcome to our gang! Lots of good info here. Good luck with your new shooters. And yes, it's a good idea to get lots of training. Plus, you will find that training can be great fun.

I tried shooting the Glock 43, but didn't really like it. Ended up getting a Glock 26, which I find more comfortable and shoot a lot better.

I'm sure most of you have heard by now that one of the guys that stopped the Muslim train attack in France was stabbed yesterday. In case you missed it, you can find the details here: http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/08/us/california-spencer-stone-stabbing/ But there is also credible evidence that the Oregon shooting may have been an attempt to assassinate another one of the train heroes, Alek Skarlatos (or it might just have been an incredible coincidence that that target was chosen): http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/10/was_the_oregon_mass_shooting_an_islamist_attempt_to_assassinate_alek_skarlatos.html Are those two events connected? Seems like a pretty strange coincidence. Has anyone been able to find anything on this?

Yes, it's always good to apply for a permit or two more than you think you will need. You never know what might catch your eye. BTW. one unintended consequence of our permitting system is that it tends to make us buy more guns. By that I mean that since one has to go through the whole annoying permitting process for one gun or six, we often end up making multiple purchases when we otherwise might not have done so.

Or without commercials, you could get through the whole thing in one evening in just a little over four hours.

Tblant, thought you might enjoy this article which specifically addresses your friend's sarcastic comment: http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2015-10-07.html#read_more

I love that analogy!

When your friendly LEO tells you that "assault rifles" are specifically designed to kill people (or as it's sometimes expressed, "to kill as many people as fast as possible"), ask him why police use them. And when they call for another AWB, ask them about how successful the last one was in reducing gun violence. The answer is that it had exactly zero affect. And you can also remind him that in a free society, you don't have to demonstrate a "need" to own something.

Topher, great video! Even though I've seen it before, it's a good reminder. Does anyone else have trouble pulling up the right stats when arguing with libs?

Welcome from north Jersey! Good community of like-minded people here, and lots you can learn from them.

IANAL, but my understanding is that since you already own the gun, you can have it shipped directly back to you after the repairs, without having to go through an FFL.

That seems to be my problem as well, although I must confess to have only watched the show intermittently. I feel the same way, probably because we're a couple of old guys.

I am less than 20 minutes from Gun for Hire, 25 minutes from Thunder Mountain, and 30 minutes from Cherry Ridge.

Sorry I'm just seeing this now, but well said Newtonian.

What a great article! Thanks so much for posting it. Most of us have seen all those logical arguments against more gun control at one time or another, but rarely in one place and stated so eloquently.

I'm with you on that. I switched out the poly furniture for wood on my Saiga, but have not done a full fledged conversion. Love the look of yours. I'm seriously considering getting something similar.

I thought it would be obvious, but zombies are a metaphor. Look it up.

It pains me to say this, but that would be a good choice. It's modular, so you can change size and caliber. Plus, it shoots pretty darn nicely. The Glock 17 is also a good choice, but consider a 34. It's not only my favorite of my handguns, but anyone who I have let shoot it has loved it.

That's a sad story indeed. Maybe if enough law abiding gun owners from around the nation get snagged by New Jersey's harshly oppressive laws, the NRA might get involved in our fight.

Not surprisingly, there was an editorial and a letter to the editor in today's Bergen Record chastising our legislators for being "cowards" on this.

Here's a summary. Read it carefully, as there is going to be a quiz on it later. http://nebula.wsimg.com/c5d4825b848c885826e77e1989fa1e86?AccessKeyId=3221A0C50080D1C903B6&disposition=0&alloworigin=1
