So, I was at the range last week...
Every range I have ever been to has the ceiling tiles shot out, not just once or twice, but with many, many rounds. I have put my target back to 25yards, fired ten shots, then brought it back and counted 11 or 12 holes. What about the time at the Olympics several years ago when the guy lost the gold medal by shooting the wrong target?

Input on Ruger 10/22
It's a great gun, a classic, wildly popular, and you can pick one up for around $300 or less. Stop thinking and go out and get one!

details from Newtown shooting
They need to update that Firearms Identification guide, as it seems that AK-47's have fallen out of vogue, with AR-15's becoming the new evil weapon.

details from Newtown shooting
Maybe it was a Taurus Judge? Hey, I always like the part where they say that he had over 1000 rounds of ammo, as if that's a ridiculous amount.

Trident Fitness
Hey, nice find! That looks like a really cool class. How did you discover it? That Saturday 9AM to 11:30 PM schedule looks pretty grueling, but I'm going to give it some serious consideration.

Welcome from northern Passaic county, a fellow RTSP'er.

Any ranges in nj or pa where you can move and shoot at all?
You can draw from a holster at RTSP after they approve you with a quick safety check. Not sure, but I believe you can also do so at the Bullethole. Unfortunately, you can only move about a foot or so to either side within your port.

Some Senators Standing Up For the 2nd Amendment
I was kind of hoping you were talking about our NJ senators. I believe we are going to be OK nationally, but we could be in for a rough ride here in NJ.

Cuomo now blaming King Mike and Brady Campaign for SAFE act
Good article. Thanks for posting it.

My "new" Kimber came home today
Congratulations howard! Best of luck with your new baby. If you go to RTSP tomorrow, when would it be? I'm considering going either there or Cherry Ridge. It will depend on the weather. If it ends up being RTSP, I'll look for you.

NJ ANTI-GUN BILL COUNT NOW UP TO 76! – 03/24 /13
I like your thinking. Sure hope you're right. It makes no sense for Christie to expend any political capital it this point to announce that he is going to veto the bills. He can wait to see which, if any, make it through the Senate before deciding what to do.

recommend some pocket 9mms for my wife
Not a true pocket pistol, but the Springfield XD9 SC is really easy and fun to shoot. My GF likes it.

More madness
Article VI of the Constitution affirms that treaties become "the supreme Law of the Land." And the vote was not as close as it appeared, as ratification of treaties requires a 2/3's majority. Still pretty bad that 46 senators thought it was a good idea.

9mm @ cabelas
Looked like it was still available, although I did not buy any, as I'm trying to hold out until the crunch is over.

An anonymous thank you (Cryan)
Well from what I understand, if he were just getting freaky on his own time, that would be one thing. But it looks like he has been doing it on the public dime, as was noted on one of the other threads. To the OP, yes I would have to agree that this was probably leaked by someone sympathetic to our cause.

NJ ANTI-GUN BILL COUNT NOW UP TO 76! – 03/24 /13
BTW, as I perused the list, it appeared that there were a number of redundancies in there, so the real total may be significantly fewer than 76.. Plus, there were at least a couple of positive ones in there, such as bills to affirm that firearms owners are not a matter of public record. Still pretty bad though.

NJ ANTI-GUN BILL COUNT NOW UP TO 76! – 03/24 /13
Yes, I just received that email from ANJRPC as well. Holy crap, they're in a feeding frenzy! Hope they all get removed from office, but that's a lot to ask in this state. Much as I like it here in general, I may have to look at finding somewhere else to live.

Nice cryan write-up in paper
I was wondering the same thing. The timing would suggest it is not a coincidence.

Dammit, I was just about to say that!

LaPierre and Bloombut on Meet the Press
I thought LaPierre did a good job this morning. It's tough to use logic and reason against the emotion and hysteria of other side, but he delivered, IMO. Anyone else catch it?

Luciano's-Lodi/West Paterson
Forgot to mention that I was in Ottomanelli's last week, and they had a few AR's on the shelves. Could things be starting to return to normal?

NICS checks
You make some excellent points here. I was unaware that there is a provision to waive NICS checks. It's kind of crazy tha we have such needless redundancy in our NJ system. Certainly, in the case of handguns where a permit is necessary for each purchase, the NICS check is a waste of time and money.

Why one gun per month?
This reminds me of "Who's on first?". You can go round and round trying to get it to make sense, and it's never going to happen.
- Are ranges suffering?

LaPierre and Bloombut on Meet the Press
Thanks for the alert. Setting my DVR. BTW, anyone see LaPierre at CPAC? I thought he was great. Much warmer and more animated than at some of his recent press conferences and at the Congressional hearings. Really, though, we would do a lot better to have a young woman speaking for us at the NRA, someone like that lady whose parents were killed in the mass shooting at Luby's in Texas many years ago.
