Next it will be teachers that will have this power... Wait, I heard that they are going to contract these decisions out to the IRS.

Is it true that if you have been unfortunate enough to experience a self-defense situation in your home, that not only will the police confiscate the weapon that you have used for self defense, but that they will more often than not take ALL of the firearms in the home, whether yours or not, even if they are not involved. Is that normally the case? Are there qualifiers? Would law enforcement generally take this route, or would there have to be other indicators that it certainly wasn't a "good shoot".

There must be some kind of exemption for them, because the cub scout camp near me uses them.

What is a "shooter" 1903 worth that is no longer a collectible. Does anybody have any thoughts or opinions? Can it be made into a scout rifle?

Nice doing business with you.

I would get a Ruger 22/45 Lite with a 4" barrel .. best of both worlds... reliable Ruger Mark action, light weight, accurate, dependable, backed by Ruger, lots of aftermarket parts, upgrades, etc... If I could only have ONE .22LR, it would be a Stainless Steel Ruger Mark II with a 5.5" bull barrel. This new Mark III is sweet, too, with a catalog * of KMKIII512H. But, for versatility, or to carry, etc., the 22/45 Lite would be my first choice, especially if I was fond of the 1911-style grip, or if I wanted something lighter for family members. My only problem with it is the cost and long-term durablity, especially when compared with the roughly equally priced all-steel ones. So, even though I want one, its not a good value to me. I personally would rather have an all-steel one, instead. And magazines are easier to find for the regular Marks. If these aluminum slide ones were going for around $325, they would be an incredible bargain, but at $450 or more, they are not. It works well, but the only thing I am not too crazy about is the front sight... needs a nice red fiber optic one installed, and it might be fun to customize the grips. http://www.ruger.com/products/2245Lite/models.html That said, my favorite .22LR to shoot is hands down the M&P 22. It might not be as accurate as 22LR Target guns... Ruger Marks, etc., but it just feels good, is quite reliable, and is fun to shoot. The SR-22 is nice, but I am not sure if its a keeper. The trigger is kind of crappy and it feels more like a stapler. I have medium-size hands and the large grip feels tiny. But, if it is reliable and compact, then it has versatility and the sights are nice for a small gun. If the 22/45 Lite wasn't a lot more, there wouldn't be any consideration. The SIG 1911-22 feels good in the hand, but I cannot get past the cheaper metal it is made of, although it seems quite durable. If it was aircraft aluminum, I would not have sold mine. However, I also don't like the fact that you need an allen key to disassemble and it is very hard to get the barrel out of the slide to clean (at least on mine) as it has very tight tolerances and the finish is easily scratched. Also, it has really crappy sights, but I am sure they can be upgraded and maybe the trigger can be polished a little. Another option is to get a nice .22LR revolver. Everyone should have a double-action .22LR revolver.

Look for a Beretta with a removable front sight if you have any inclination about upgrading the sights.. 92A1, Vertec, etc.

Time for some like-minded citizens to send Norcross some correspondence saying, "You are out of order, you are out of order, and I am asking you to leave!"

Nitrospaz9, you seem to be a little misguided. There is a background check when you get your FID card. If anything, that information should be updated in the system database so that from then on, when an instant check (less than 20 minutes) is done, an answer should come back that the buyer is in the clear, or denied. It should be an instant check and the information and system should be in place to do this. There should be no additional wait time. Also, when you get a background check, the State is not suppose to be keeping a record of it. With the stupid one-handgun-a-month thing, maybe the record could be kept for an entire month and then purged. But, do you think that is happening? Already it is defacto registration. So, set the instant system up and don't keep any records of the transactions, include the mental health piece with the instant check and allow private sales to do instant checks when doing private sales, and get rid of OGAM and the stupid permit system, get rid of the ridiculous interstate laws and now we are talking. Oh, and setup a fair and timely means for those denied to address it, and punish those that are attempting to abuse the system by trying to acquire guns when they know they are no longer eligible. Crazies, although tragic sometimes when guns are in their hands, make up a very small problem for society and guns. Better to focus on drunk drivers if you want to save lives Better to focus on repeat offenders than put more regulations on the moral and honest people. Better to focus on criminals committing crimes with guns, than citizens with two many rounds in their magazines. NONE Of the proposed laws will keep us any safer, stop crime, or drastically hinder the mentally ill. But, then those laws are not about that.

Yes, it is well-written. The problem is that the people believe that politicians, though sometimes seemingly acting against common sense, have the best intentions and really want to do the right thing for the people. And, this is just not so. Politicians have their own agendas and only help the people out when it is politically expedient to do so, or when it happens to be coincidence. Therefore, they generally don't care.

He's a defense attorney's wet dream that enables him or her to supply the kids with pizza and caviar at the tax payer's expense... a win/win for a statist esquire.

They are probably afraid that he's a Muslim and a gang banger. And, since they don't go after ILLEGAL gunowners with the ferocity that they take down legal ones....

It's not that they don't care. They just don't want to publicize it because they have no intentions of either getting to the root of the problem or doing anything about it.

Smooth transaction; nice guy!

If a family-member doesn't like them, just avoid any talks, etc. around him or her. But, I was at a party and I was talking to my uncle about the crazy rash of attacks on the 2nd Amendment and my little brother, who hates guns, overheard me. He told me to shut up, and that I was part of the problem. I continued to talk with my uncle and I have purchased an NRA membership in his name as a gift. I wonder which magazine he would like. In his case, I hope they go into overtime with their junk mailings.

Get a Taurus 66 in .357, or a Taurus 85.

16 days... **edit** no discussion.. JUST wait time.. thanks

I've never tried a Hi-Power, but the two guns I like the ergonomics on the best are the M&P FS and the CZ 75B. I prefer striker-fired, but I love the CZ 75.

This is what I would do.

Or a G19 and G23 for the same price as the HK.

I wish I had an NJ2AS patch to put on a baseball cap.

Has anybody seen a P-01 for sale in NJ?

Are Beretta 92A1s not sold in NJ because they only come with 17-round magazines? Does the M9A1 have a removeable front sight. Does it come with 15-round magazines? Has anyone seen a Beretta 92 Vertec, 92A1, M9A1, or Compact for sale in NJ, recently?
