NYC "finest" in action again...
We've come a long way.....haven't we Shawn?

NYC "finest" in action again...
I beg to differ Shawn.. Past post show that you have taken every opportunity to criticize the Law Enforcement community since your unfortunate run in with your township's LEOs....and while understandable, I can't help but suspect that your views on this subject is invariably silted and emotional.

NYC "finest" in action again...
I would indeed "give them a break" because I would have been paid for not only my distress but everyone else's also.... don't misunderstand, I'm not giving critical allowances because of the reasons I've quoted.... only understanding. You've mixed emotion with logic....a dangerous and costly mistake.

NYC "finest" in action again...
At the risk of appearing entirely too obvious..... NYC is crowded, especially the Times Square area,home to some unique crazies, even those who have no regard for the welfare of themselves or others. NYC cops are overwhelming younger,inexperienced,and some would argue...under trained,Issued with Glocks that have that dreaded 12 lb trigger all coming together in a city where you are to be believed can be a target of everything from a terrorist attack to a renegade street performer in a Grover costume. Shit will invertible happen.........Give these guys a break, will you?

Do you always carry your FID card?
Yes I just received my chipped Amex recently and do have a Visa Card with it also attached to an overseas account but the exchange rate and transaction fees can be prohibitive.

No FID needed to handle gun at gun store!
I will agree and concede the point.....I do wish RTSP all success and will state I'm on record as having defended you several times on this very forum in the past, so mine is not a vendetta but simply an attempt to show how asinine our laws are and how conditioned to following the herd mentality we've become.
-
No FID needed to handle gun at gun store!
That "Advocation" by RTSP by their own admission took 1 call to the State Police who indicated that there was "nothing is in writing and they don't usually put things on paper that are not laws" but this only after ...and again I quote...."we contacted every authority we could find,spent countless hours calling around to other dealers". I belabor the point only because the majority of us already knew this to be the case without our needing an Advocate however noble they need to appear.

I had no intention of appearing aggressive to you and if it came across as such, I apologize....We do however have FFL's as long time participating members of the forum and even they could not find such a stipulation, so again finding documentation from the state saying "it's all good" may indeed be difficult if not impossible to source.

You've been around as long as I have .....have you known vladtepes,Mr Bob or any of the rest NOT to pursue aggressively especially the amount of times this topic has arisen? you can't document a law or an exception to that law if the law did not exist in the first place....
-
No FID needed to handle gun at gun store!
In all the threads on this very subject none of the learned Gentlemen on this forum to my knowledge has been able to find any such law. Now take that any way you will but in my experience if it existed it would have been posted by someone.

Best places online to buy ammo...
Yes but the costs drop dramatically as the volume increases so while you or I will be charged that $35.00 if we ship occasionally, a business who ships large orders on a consistent basis will only pay a fraction of that.Some pass that savings to their customers,absorb it into the cost of the product being shipped or nail the average buyer with the full boat.
-
Best places online to buy ammo...
I'm sure but some do it at very reasonable prices and some add in that dreaded handling charge on top of higher per round price so obviously I'll opt for the lesser.
-

What I see as "classless" is RTSP abandoning NJGF and it's members in the early days,recognizing intense competition was on the horizon,ingratiating your selves with a "my bad" and now attempting to portraying RTSP as some pillar of the shooting community by dropping what we all knew was an illegal procedure....... Really?
-
Best places online to buy ammo...
Their prices and shipping costs is consistently higher that their counterparts and I've always wondered how they stayed in business....
-
No FID needed to handle gun at gun store!
I must agree...We celebrate the passing of what was and still remains a questionable and obtrusive myth most likely started by some lazy or paranoid gun shop owner years before and pat our selves on the back for being so clever and forward thinking.....Only in New Jersey.

Do you always carry your FID card?
It depends on where you are...Canada,AVI,BVI,some of the Caribbean most definitely but unlike over here, in some European countries and most of Asia other than the major metropolises,ATMs are few and far between, have severe restrictions on the amount of cash you can withdraw,banks still require 2 forms of ID for large,frequently counterfeited bills and takes at time hours, cash is still king so I always carry some currency.

I've used it in Europe and Asia as secondary ID while changing American currency as my Passport remains in the hotel safe.

Did it hurt? Share your 1st firearm related incident
...did you at least get it in the 10 ring?

Shot a light fixture on my very first visit to Shore Shot.... Not so much painful as infinitely embarrassing.

Sara Silverman - Black NRA - funny or die?
Satirical and even slightly clever but not in the least ....funny.

Irish road racing
I remember one TT when an errant sheep crossing the road took out 3 riders........2 died.

Anyone buy anything from Palmetto State lately?
I've order over 8 times from PSA because of their prices, selection and inexpensive shipping compared to some of the popular vendors but am aware that fast shipping is not their specialty and tailor my expectations as such. I order nothing I would need immediately or sooner,basically forget the details and remain pleasantly surprised when a package arrives on my doorstep.I have always been acknowledged with a reply to my few emails and will continue to do business with them as long as their selection and prices satisfy my needs.

Irish road racing
Precisely my point....I would look forward to the TT on BBC Sports as a kid when Sheen and Agostini was still riding.

Every heard of the Isle of Man TT?

National Black leaders speak out against gun control
I actually felt for those folks as the camera panned the empty seats. They obviously are resolute in their convictions and as you're said, going against type....no charismatic reverend surrounded by clapping hangers on,no loud and pandering sermons, only common sense and patriotism. Refreshing but apparently lost on so much of us Americans.
