"I shot him officer, but grandma did the killing"

Just got back from working in this heat (electricians helper) and personally, I usually keep the ac set to 68 unless I just got home like now when I set it to 61.

Correct. Idk about the hammer thing but make absolutely sure when rolling to either use a heat gun or a good blowdryer.

True, but I've worked security, its always the typical old hetian guy that sleeps for half his shift. That guy doesn't go to training or do anything that might cost yikes an extra dollar.

Ghandi proved your statement false. Violence should be a last resort is reasoning fails.

I live right by Newark and I've seen what goes on in certain areas of the city. This will probably result in unnecessary murder. Who's better equipt for a gun fight? Some thugs who have been around guns their whole lives or some 60 year old security guard that barely knows how to handle his weapon considering he only took a 48 class and probably never shot after that? Either the guard is gonna get killed as well as the store owner or the guards just gonna start shooting possibly taking out innocent civilians.

I agree, just some ribbing

guess you dont want it bad enough then. lol

Where ya moving to?

I deff mean it. I know close to nothing about firearms and it would be very beneficial to get in with some of you guys. I'm always down for meeting new people. I've spent the last week researching guns, safety, and accessories with any free time I've had for my own knowledge and to not sound like an utter idiot when posting questions. I don't like to be the guy that calls a magazine a clip. Lol

Well once I get my FID and get another permit for it ill pm you and you can run as many rounds through as you want, of course, your gonna have to bring the rookie some toys to play with also. Lol its only been a couple days since I handed in my paper work and my fiance's father (one of my references) already got the questionare in the mail so it shouldn't be too Much longer before I get my m&p.

ahh, Yeh, its probably been dry fired a lot. lol o well, guess ill hold onto it, go to the range shooting my ladies smith. lol

Yes she has the original case.

She bought it brand new from casos gun-o-Rama in jersey city. There has never been a round through it.

probably give it a quarter or half turn and see how it feels.

old school- ive tried convincing her that having 2 firearms in the house would be much safer than one due to the fact that we live in a condo and the entrance is in the middle of what is a railroad style unit. unfortunately its like fighting an uphill battle. ive even offered to bring her to the range and pay for any classes she might be interested in. still a no go. ray ray-this thing is beautiful, absolutely MINT and feels amazing in the hand.

Well long story short, my mother bought a ladies smith .38 special with a cherry handle back in 1989 right before I was born. She's never fired the weapon and its in mint condition. Still has all the original paperwork and I just finished cleaning it. She is no longer interested in keeping it because she says she doesn't need the stress of nj gun laws so she plans on lifting it to me once I get another permit. I'm curious as to what it would be worth as its a brand new gun for 1989. Lol (will post pics soon) http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u106/smoke121212/IMAG0074.jpg http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u106/smoke121212/IMAG0073.jpg

By chance were u there a few days ago picking up? I was there with my fiance and noticed someone picking up a smith.

You guys help a lot. Atleast now I know I'm not the only one. It's amazing how something you did when you were a kid and didnt have any sense could prevent you from protecting yourself, as well as your family when your an adult.

thanks fellas. i have a bad habit of over thinking things. as for the 6 months, the people i went to about the firearms license were very nice and eager to help, she said this would take a maximum of 4 weeks. also, i was talking to another guy that was there applying for a few more permits and he said he got his in 3 weeks. seems as though jersey city is pretty good.

so i finally sent in my application in jersey city for my firearms permit. im a little uneasy as to whether or not it will pass due to something that happened when i was a child. i had pulled a knife on a few kids in a playground with another friend of mine. we were not arrested but the police did give us both a visit and confiscated our knives (boy scouts). luckily the parents of the other kids did not press charges. would this be something i would be denied for? the application asks whether or not i had ever been arrested, and i havent, but im still unsure with how ridiculous nj is.

well i asked earlier this morning before any of these comments and they were pretty helpful, just said that she had to be in the car and gun in the trunk, ammunition separate.

No worries, I would still confirm with law enforcement in both municipalities.

Ok so she's good. It's always been in her name.

It's actually locked in a safe at my fathers house.
