gearhog and usaammo a disaster.
I too had some hiccups in the ordering process but they were actually quite gracious and apologetic when I explained the situation and even refunded me half of my shipping in the end. I would urge you not to give up and speak to someone live. good luck. sorry Krdshrk I meant the reply to go to the OP.

FID and PPL blank apps.
The place is painted and hung out the new name on the mail box....finally moved in and now my Drivers permit match the new address. Time to apply for the change on my FID card and get 3 more permits.I went to the Monroe Township PD and asked for necessary apps but the lady seemed like a part timer and couldn't find them but asked me if there was "any recent activity" on my FID? I know it's somewhere on the NJGF site and can't seem to find it but I need a site where I can download all necessary apps for change of address on my FID and 3 PPL'S please. Does anyone knows how long it takes to expedite these requests in Monroe Township ,are there any additional paperwork to look out for and is the PD gun owner friendly? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Recommend me a work knife.
I keep looking at the Ranger series every time I stop at duty free at the Canadian border on my way back from Montreal, but they only stock the orange handle at a pretty decent price.

First 9mm?
Trust me... I may be accused of many things....thinking too much is not one of them.I'm leaning toward the 75b.Tried, true,tested and able to fire just about anything that will fit in the mag.

Red Bank requiring in person interviews now?
Both of my references were out of state when I applied in East Brunswick.

Red Bank requiring in person interviews now?
Next obvious question is: What if your character reference contacts are out of state? Do I fly them in.. do they? or do I readily make friends at the local Shoprite or Pep Boys?

Gearhog and USA Ammo Issues
Got my 500 rounds of 9mm yesterday, now I can't wait to see if they run through my Sig without issues.

First 9mm?
I was in your predicament not 7 months ago,I had my heart set on a Glock 19...I obsessed about it, I dreamt about it..... then I shot it and a Beretta,Sig,S&W,Springfield,Taurus,Ruger....and the Glock was good but not great for me so I went with the Sig. Now I've pretty much outgrown the Sig and dream of a CZ 75 all steel beauty. My point is... shoot as many pistols that is available, in as many calibers and then make a choice that is right for you at this present time but don't be surprised if your heart,mind and hand tells you it's time to in essence "put away childish things" and look for the next flavor of the month. I envy the old timers that was able to find that one gun that completed them and have never wavered since. Good luck and have fun.

NJ LEE Exam Scores
Unfortunately that is a rather simplistic view of the law enforcement industry in my opinion, and let us not forget that it is indeed an industry. Leo's today have to pay their way for the most part and many a suburban force would flounder if not for the extra revenue generated by tickets.... For good or bad is infinitely debatable but it has become a matter of fact, the vast majority of those on the job disagree and rightly so... simply because they didn't sign up for that duty in the academies but there they are.... estatz revenue collectors Some get bitter and embrace the us against them attitude simply as a defense mechanism, some adopt a robocop stance out of insecurity but most go to work every day just trying to house, clothe and feed their families. I unfortunately seem to attract Robocops....Oh well.

I say go for it, I am aware it 's at times a thankless and unfulfilling profession but we still need good,honest and trustworthy LEOs , but for Pete's sake don't be a dick and remember we're just like you. Good luck. ps: check out posts by Fearthisinc and Tacguy911 to give you a better understanding of what you hopefully won't be if you choose this profession pss: "The Man".?.... really? already strayed onto the path to Dickdom IMHO....

Dealing with the death of a parent
Having lost my mother not too long ago and remembering her as a vital,energetic,outspoken piece of work,I believe I can relate. I'll leave you with her favorite quote,"Off on another adventure" My prayers and sympathies go with you and your family.

Sayreville sportsman.. lousy experience
That in it'self troubles me. I take precautions to protect myself and my own and then prosecuted for following a basic human instinct.....self preservation.

Sayreville sportsman.. lousy experience
I too believe it's ridiculous and if the occasion arises I have no doubt that my wife will use the firearm to protect herself regardless of the arcane and unjust laws NJ has on the books. My contention lies with a dealer snatching a firearm out of my hands without explanation after finding out I was purchasing it for OUR home defense. We have already discussed in ad nauseam about how nonsensical and unjust the laws are but have little choice but to protest but comply.

....so following your interpretation of the laws and taking into account the somewhat ambiguous nature of castle doctrine, resident's exemption et al, he was well within his rights not to sell me the pistol,if perhaps overly cautious. Ok ,I understand now,If he had only taken the time to explain that to me....

What's up
Welcome.... and I'm sure that some of the charter members will explain that "It don't count unless there's pictures" especially of a extensive collection.

Sayreville sportsman.. lousy experience
I agree and am cognizant that New Jersey's Firearms laws are confusing and extensive but such things as max mag capacity,HP,FID,PPL laws are in my mind the very basics and it is not unrealistic to expect a business to keep up on, so someone misrepresenting or out right lying is inexcusable. I feel like I've truly beaten this horse to death and least I am accused of some sort of vendetta I'll just say in closing that I have the impression that SS is and shall remain the quintessential example of a owner/operator's misguided ego, bombast,and/or prescription addled disinterest and for us not to call BS! is just doing a disservice to the next poor unaware schmuck that happens by Sayerville Sportsman.

- Whale Wars
I believe that the Japanese actually use the majority of the meat in their school cafeterias and sell the balance to some other countries who still value the whale but got out of whaling years ago. But as I understand it the primary species that they hunt ie:Minke. has made a remarkable comeback and can indeed support some limited hunting. True? - Whale Wars
