Lost Permit
Exactly. When is the last time you were pulled over and told the officer you disagreed with the ticket? Have fun trying to convince them they are wrong. Whether you ARE right is inconsequential, you are getting that ticket. The cop will say "Don't like it, fight it in court." Having a handgun is playing with much bigger consequences, that frankly, I'm not willing to go through to prove a point. The peices of paper prove that point for me. Like I said, I don't care if you're willing to do that, because you are right within our laws. Good luck.

1k to spend what to get
Buy whatever you will use more. I'd go for the 1911. My favorite platform

Lost Permit
That is what I'm trying to say. It has nothing to do with me being "ok" with it. What I do accept is reality, in which I can flash a peice of paper to them and tell them to piss off. I don't have the time nor the money to go fight the good fight in court or what have you. When our elected officials and organizations that are given large sums of money change things so that I don't have to worry about it, then I'll leave my paperwork at home

Lost Permit
Im just saying how it is. Its your problem to deal with. I couldn't care less how long it takes you to convince someone your firearms are legal. There are many ways to enact a change of culture in our state, and until it does, my time is worth more to me than winning a pissing contest with some rookie gumshoe.

Finalists in my 1911 search
Very nice looking pistol. I'm sure it will work great. I'm just not a fan of SA.

Lost Permit
I think what he's saying if you don't want to have a bigger hassle than necessary, to just carry it. I have copies of mine just so they don't give me crap. If you don't want to carry them, you are well within your rights. But I wouldn't be surprised if they gave you more of a hard time.

Do you send in your warranty/registration card
Registered mine for that reason. They already know what gun I have to begin with.

Heritage Guild Range in Easton, PA.
Actually went there today for some scope rings. Havent been to the one in Easton but the Branchburg store doesnt have a range, decent selection of firearms, but mostly geared toward archery. They have a good supply of Blackhawk! and other holsters. VERY nice staff, I was actually taken a little of guard. I'm used to be treated like garbage until I pull out my P2P

Verizon DSL - Verizon Fios - Comcast Internet - Something Else
I have comcast now (only choice here). I have used Time Warner and VZ Fios in NY. Fios was far and away my favorite, never any problems and lightning fast

First gun for a woman
That is kind of what I was trying to say. If you tell people a certain gun is too powerful or too snappy it can lead to a much greater amount of percieved recoil and make them more apt to dislike it even before they try it. Obviously I don't advocate starting someone a magnum caliber or whatever, but I think most adults can handle standard calibers up to a .45. Everyone will have their preferences though.

No worries. Just want to have the right info out there.

Mount Olive Police arrest California man found with sawed-off shotgun, handguns and knives in car
I haven't heard of that. Good to know

First gun for a woman
Btw the recoil comment I made was for wadcutters in a solid. 357 frame. I don't think you are reading my posts as I intend them.
-
First gun for a woman
I don't see anyone suggesting a .357 round exclusively. A .357 pistol has the ability to accept several different rounds and having. 357 rounds as self defense while practicing with .38 seems like solid advice to me. What is the problem there?

I was unaware sawed off shorties are a federal crime. That's a rough story dude. I definitely don't trust the media but le should know what they are charging.

Not for nothing but isn't California even tougher on guns than us?

Read an article on nj.com saying he was charged with possession of a sawed off shotgun. Have to think the pd knows the difference. He also had hollowpoints so tack that on

First gun for a woman
Don't pigeonhole anyone into a .22 because you don't know if they can "handle it" my gf is 5' tall and she started on a .45 and loves it. Read my post over and u recommended a .357 for the versatile rounds hou can use including. 38 wadcutters. If you've never shot one through a heavy framed gun there is almost no recoil to speak of. Give people more credit. Edit*
