Duppie

Yes, That particular property has seen so many small business come and go but I would love to have another alternative to Dick's and Sayerville Sportsman{where I wouldn't set foot anyway}so I'll be keeping an eye open.

I've carried a pocket knife since my teens but find it hard to spend too much since I tend to break or lose them often.I've carried the excellent Kershaw Zing now for awhile and have only had 1 incident where I had to explain it. In Journal Square Path station where the Police officer just told me to put it in my Knapsack when he saw the clip in my front pocket as I was retrieving my wallet. I consider myself lucky because he was more mature and had obviously been on the job for awhile as I am sure the outcome would have been different with a younger, less experienced officer.

In retrospect....I guess not.

I read several write ups on Guns.com and American Rifleman about that gun and I gather that it is what the Glock should have been?

You should see their HQ in Seattle,old hospital on the hill overlooking the stadium that smells like fresh brewed coffee even in the restrooms. They are so successful because of their philosophy of exclusivity and chubbiness came at a time where every one needed to feel that much more special even when indulging in something so mundane as buying a cup of coffee. They have just released their "Blond Roast"with strict instructions that there is to be absolutely no blond jokes when interacting with customers.....or else.

Exactly.....the average customer want to believe that by ordering in their own special language,drinking overpriced insipid coffee while playing video games on their I Pads in a contrived hipster living room is the experience that makes them special... You didn't think they became omnipresent just selling coffee did you?

Exactly. Starbucks teaches in their management course that Coffee and such is secondary to the whole experience. In their culture they are not selling you a product but a slice of life.

Is it still worth getting one though? I do a lot of driving up north and it could come in handy on the road also.

I'm in the same boat, wife wants the yapper that's all over television,I want a boxer but will settle for a small working breed...Corgi I think.

I never had much issues in East Brunswick other than some rambunctious teens who couldn't handle their weed, then the gang tags started to appear and increased LEO activity in Winding Wood which was just behind us. We moved to Monroe and lo and behold... in the welcome packet a letter from the chief warning us of push ins and scams, then a robbery last week in the vicinity. Vladtepes has the right idea...strive for no neighbors at all.

A Russian bartender showed me how he keeps his good stuff. Freeze your favorite Vodka upright in a coffee can filled with water,after frozen,run water over can to remove it leaving only vodka bottle encased in ice. Keep bottle in freezer and when depleted just keep filling the iced bottle with favorite vodka.It does pour a little like oil but taste even better. I still keep a iced bottle of Absolut in the freezer.

Oh my friend is not so much humane as much as he hates Walmart....In his words, "Those sob's treat their employees like animals so they should have no problem dealing with a dozen squirrels tearing through all their bird and grass seed".

For my: Sig p250 - 4 15 rounders. CZ75b - 6 15 rounders. Taurus 357 - 4 5 round speed loaders.

At this point I have no choice but to bow to your superior intellect,excellent comprehension,and laser like insight pertaining to the manufacture and marketing processes in the electronics industry.... I apologize for wasting your valuable time.

You continue to misread my posts in your frenzy of distaste for Apple products.....Innovation in putting together an attractive,user friendly package of consumer products and marketing said product in a manner that consumers not only paid their price but clamor for the next product launch.Innovation...there's that word again... in putting together a smart phone platform that all but created the category. I can't argue the fine points of parts or base technology just the....you guessed it...Innovative way the parts and technology is put together and sold to an eager public.....Sorry if I confused you.

I am glad I was able to bring a smile to your face and perhaps a respite from the reality that Apple was,is and from all appearances will remain an innovator in consumer electronics in the near future. The net is full of Apple haters that can build one with spare parts from the local radio Shack and Pep Boys dumpster in a dank basement but that does not take away from the fact that Apple innovated,packaged and marketed a product that has captured the imagination of millions of paying customers. They charge what the market will bear and when such time that the "trend" as you put it diminishes, perhaps we'll see a reasonably priced product with 2 chicks with guns as it's logo. Now that I'm sure would be worth every penny......

Apple as a brand has such recognition and cache worldwide for offering only a cutting edge,quality product that for them to offer any at a so called reasonable price would only erode their image and perception of quality and innovation.The charge what they believe their technology is worth and judging from their sales....they appear to be right.Charging what the market will bear is as American as Apple Pie.......Pun entirely intended.

It reminds me of a conversation with a gentleman who chastised me for owning German Automobiles and claimed he only bought all American cars. After pointing out that his American car had less than 18% of it's parts designed,produced or assembled in the US....he became quiet also.

Congratulations, I'm on my second and live by a very simple ethic. "In a marriage you can choose to be right or to be happy, but very rarely both." I'm a very happy man because according to my wife,I've never been right yet..............

I'm told that a Crossman Classic .177 caliber with a stock, cranked to 10 and loaded with some Beeman Silver Arrow pellets will be quite effective at approximately 10 yards with minimum noise.... We must have the same neighbors.

When I moved to Monroe I applied for a new FID with my current address and 3 PPP's,. At that time I was told that I would have to relinquish my old FID card only after my new one was issued. during that time I purchased ammo at several Dicks with the old FID and my new Drivers License where the addresses obviously did not match. When I was contacted by Monroe PD to pick up my new papers, I was instructed to put my old FID in an envelope with $11.00, No hassle or fuss.

That is just Butt Ugly......

Whether or not the bill passes and I don't believe it will,I would think twice before driving through Tennessee with NY State tags. Just the fact that it has generated this much press will undoubtedly result in shall we say....stricter enforcement by the Police. As it is driving through some southern states with "Yankee" tags at times take steely nerves and great patients so as not the get pulled over for the slightest infraction.

I have a friend in Maine who humanely trap them and release them in the middle of the night in his local Walmart outside garden department where they store bird seed and such.

I would have to agree especially with Bloomberg's not so subtle pressure on prosecutors to maintain zero tolerance in firearms cases.
