Old Glock guy

Looks like no classes scheduled until August. Is that correct?

Hey Dave, nice class on Friday night! As I mentioned to you, it was exactly what I had been looking for for quite some time. To anyone interested in this class, it's a nice overview of treatment of major trauma. I wanted a class that did not include a few hours of CPR, as I'm already certified; and I did not really want to travel to spend a couple of days learning first aid (although I may do so in the future). Henrym has already posted a good review, to which I would just add that the class dealt mostly with controlling major bleeding, and with treating major chest trauma involving sucking wounds and collapsed lungs. There was also a brief treatment of eye injuries. (The slides were definitely not for the squeamish.) There is a reason this class has been so well attended. It is really a great place to start for someone looking for first aid training.

I totally agree. Problem is, I just can't picture that ever happening.

Yes, I've ordered from them a few times as well, and it's always gone smoothly. Got this deal on their weekly newsletter. Grabbed a couple of cases, even though I don't really need it. Thanks, I think. :-)

Copy that.

Yes, a few of us who plan on going with that one. But I'm not giving up yet. While I'm here (for the foreseeable future), I'm fighting for 2A rights! Oh, and well said sir.

That's what I've always heard, but I have a hard time understanding how this poll is going to give you any clarity on that.

That's great!

Judging by their recent pattern, I would have to agree with you.

While I'm mostly a big fan of the place (see my post in another CR thread), I can certainly understand your frustration. That handgun range is huge. Couldn't they just reserve part of it for the police, and leave some of it open to the members?

That really highlights what a patchwork of stupid, ill-conceived laws we have in this state.

Was up there yesterday, and although there were lots of people shooting on the 100 yard range (the HG range was closed for a state match), there was no waiting, at least when I was there. The place is just beautiful on a nice late spring/early summer day like yesterday. Contrary to what some have said, the RO's were courteous and helpful. Plus, it's nice having a steel target out there. Wish they would add a few more, as was originally planned.

Very nice! Lots of luck with it. Would you mind saying where you got it and about how much you paid?

Congratulations! Great place you guys have. If I lived a bit closer I would be there all the time.

Wait, the left are lying to further their agenda? There's a shocker!

I'm getting close to retirement, and I'm definitely giving serious thought to relocating, even though I've been from the NY/NJ area my whole life. SC is looking good to me as well Nick. Just got back from a few days in Charleston and the surrounding area, and we spoke with lots of people who had relocated there from the north. Interesting in the article where they discuss the reasons people are considering leaving, no one mentioned "Better gun laws," which would certainly have an influence on most of us.

Sounds like a prosecutor would have a field day with an ammo named "R.I.P."

Same for me. I'm a bit confused here. I thought the difference between H "Defense" and "Duty" is that the latter has better penetration through barriers, like walls and windshields. Is that correct? And if so, is that an advantage or a disadvantage?

Doesn't matter what you say. Just call and/or write to tell him to veto this BS!

My experience has been the same, although I've only flown out of Newark, not either of the NY airports. The absurdity of having to stop at a range on the way to the airport to make the trip legal sounds like something out of Kafka.

So if Pennsylvania's AG can unilaterally decide that certain out of state CCW permits are no longer valid, can our AG wake up one morning a proclaim that self defense constitutes "justifiable need"? (I know that would never happen, but it's an entertaining fantasy.) And as for not having to pump our own gasoline, please keep quiet about that. It's one of the few good things about living in NJ!

Welcome from Wayne. You have a great place to shoot right in your backyard at the Woodland Park/Gun for Hire Range. Have you been there yet?

Well you had to know that was coming. Wouldn't it be convenient for the government to be able to deactivate everyone's guns when they wanted. That would seem to be entirely contrary to the Second Amendment, but at this point I hold little faith in anyone in government, including SCOTUS, standing up for the Constitution.

It's like they smell blood in the water!

Hope you guys are having fun out there while I'm slaving away in my office.
