Old Glock guy

Good segment! Gutfeld is great. "Concealed carry creates an element of uncertainty (among the bad guys)." And yes, I always have to laugh when I hear people from around the country complaining about gun free zones, when we in NJ spend our entire lives in one.

We had -6 here in Wayne, which is the lowest temperature I can ever remember seeing in my life.

If you're having problems signing the petition now, wait until Obama starts controlling the internet three days from now.

Just saw that on NRA All Access. Very cool! Maybe we can arrange a road trip.

Wait, she had a gun?

Any word on whether the store in Wayne has firearms yet?

Looks great! I'm really going to need to do something like that with mine. Which wood furniture did you use?

Very interested!

Just an FYI: NJ2AS is urging the governor and Col Fuentes to use the administrative code update to eliminate "justifiable need" and make "self defense" or "for all lawful purposes" as reason enough for CCW permits. I would urge everyone to write to them to request that. Why do all changes in the AC have to work against us?

Norseman, I'm going to try to see if I can get my GF to join me to hear you at the Grasshopper, which is not too far from us. I enjoyed hearing you guys and chatting with you when you were at Thatcher McGhee's in Pompton Lakes a year or so ago.

Very nice! I picked one up awhile back for around that price, but that was before the ban. Mine is in 7.62 as well, partly for the reason you note, and partly because the ammo is so cheap, relative to everything else. As an aside, has anyone here just replaced the stock and fore end with wood furniture, to give it a more authentic look? I really don't want to go through the hassle of moving the trigger group forward, and adding a pistol grip and bullet guide. Seems like the wood would go a long way toward giving it a better look with minimal effort.

What you say makes a lot of sense, but good luck getting them to implement that in this godawful leftist state.

Once again, Dave nails it! Just reading about this in Nappen's book. A common pitfall is for someone to leave firearms to his or her spouse, to be distributed to their kids. In that case, appropriate paperwork is required, including P2P's for handguns. So it is important that firearms be designated to pass directly to their intended heirs, to avoid the need for NJ's complicated paperwork.

RIP Tyreese! Well done episode, with the old-timers back for a reprise. Sad to see him go, but they certainly gave him a decent sendoff.

Sounds interesting, but could you give us a little more information about what your group is and what it does? For instance, does 3% refer to the percentage of people fighting for 2A rights? Or does it refer to the percentage granted CCW permits in NJ? (I suspect it's even less than that.) We already have groups fighting to restore our Constitutional right to defend ourselves outside our homes (CCW), such as NJ2AS and the SAPPA project, so perhaps there should be some collaboration to increase our strength and avoid duplication of effort.

If you are in that area, I would strongly urge you to get out and see Norseman and his band. Having seen them when they were in my neighborhood awhile back, I can promise that you will have a good time. Plus. he's a nice guy to chat with about 2A stuff.

Passaic county here. Likewise, could probably do Bridgewater, but farther north would be better.

Watch the Nappen video linked above. He says it's legal to do so, but probably not advisable.

I would be very interested, depending on where and when.

If something is legal, why would you need a court case to prove it? It is my understanding that you are correct, that one can possess an unloaded long gun at any time. The catch is that in loading it, one commits a felony. So according to our absurd NJ laws, it can't be used in self defense (unless you hit someone over the head with it, and I'm not even really sure about that).

I have been wanting to take a comprehensive first aid class. I would be very interested, depending on date and location. I am already CPR certified, so I would prefer to spend more time on treating trauma.

I believe the theory is that if everyone else is carrying in our state, it would be such an absurdity to not let NJ citizens also carry, that the state would be forced to capitulate. Not sure if I agree with that line of reasoning, but that's what I've heard. As for your second paragraph, I believe 67 votes (2/3's majority) are needed to override a presidential veto, so good luck with that. Sixty votes are needed to vote for cloture, that is, to call for a vote and avoid a filibuster. (Did not look these up, just going by memory from civics class, so I could be wrong.)

Love my 15-22, but it has had some issues with Federal bulk ammo. Does fine with CCI Tactical. As others have noted, very easy to clean, and does not seem to require a lot of care.

Based on the recommendations in this thread, I ordered a Spyderco Sharpmaker from Amazon. Just received it yesterday, and tried it out on couple of my folders. Seemed to work pretty well, once I figured out how to use it.

I've lived my life with the premise of not making plans based on the weather forecast. And yet I closed my office for today, because they sounded so certain. Oh well, guess I can settle in, enjoy the warmth of the fire from my wood stove, and use the time to get a few things done around the house.
