Permit to Burn: Help!
All good. The M2 is my wife's favorite, in 5". "Happy wife, Happy life!"

AARP going in new directions
I'll second that. And not to mention their other left-wing agenda items.

Just a question: Apex what? Which components?

AK47 Guitar Build
Here's a link to a time compressed video of a luthier building a custom AK47 style guitar. The transformation is worth watching. http://www.guitarworld.com/watch-luthier-builds-diresta-ak47-guitar-video I wonder if it comes in 7.62x39 Sharp, or Flat?

NEW - Walther PPQ in 45 ACP!
I've got the edge here. My 'Glock Girl' Wife loves her PPQ M2 5" in 9mm, so this may not be a tough sell. Although I'd (we'd!) wait until 2016 when the rush is over. You know... apply for permits in November, get them in February!

car video cameras
I bought the Black Box G1W in March and it works very well. Not complicated to work, and the video is on the MicroSDHC card. Playback on the PC either directly, or after copying the video files. I actually made a movie about one trip I took. $48 at Amazon. If you buy this, get the Class 4 card shown paired with it on the page. It comes with an adapter, and the Class 4 cards work properly with the G1W. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FONBG1A?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

Firearms Appraisal for Insurance
I am close to getting a policy with Collectibles Insurance and have had a couple email exchanges with them. To wit, if you want they also cover all firearm related accessories (magazines, scopes etc.) AND ammunition. You just include the value of those items in your policy. Depending on your attitude, ammunition may or may not be a trivial item subject to fire or flood.

Looks like Well Regulated Militia to me. The wheel has turned. Good job.

Working in NYC
You should consider if the increase in your net pay will be worth the net decrease in your life. I found you cannot enjoy any extra money if you don't have enough life.

I have an odd question
Is that Dr. Fu Manchu?

I have an odd question
It does to me. I need several thousand rounds for self-defense. Beyond that any extra ammo is an excellent bartering item, for those who did not think ahead and have 50 rounds or none of what they need. (Assuming of course they have something I need. Maybe not, if they're bad planners.) I'm also thinking of scenarios where the ammo supply is simply cut off, as we saw (sort of) after Sandy Hook. In the future, if I or my family find ourselves in an environment where we have actually expended several thousand rounds in a firefight(s), then we're probably dead.

working away from home??
Exactly. After my relevant experience, whenever evaluating a job change the commute time and costs were ALWAYS factored into the decision. I can usually make more money, but I can't get back time that's passed by.

NJ.com "GOD Given Right" letter
I think more accurate statements might be: The right to self defense is a God given right. ('Natural' right if you prefer.) The right to the most effective means to do it is a constitutional right. Two separate issues.

working away from home??
"The main thing about money, Bud... it makes you do things you don't want to do." So true. You have my sympathy. I finally applied arithmetic way back when: (Total Compensation - Total Travel Cost) / (Hours at work + Hours commuting) = Actual $/Hour That was a really ugly number! When I had the chance to transfer an hour closer to home I did. The result was saving time equivalent to 10 paid weeks of vacation per year, and bumping my Actual $/Hour by about 30%. In the end of course, you do what you have to do as best you can and watch for an opening. Good luck.

Ex-boyfriend sought in woman's slaying while waiting for permit!
Breitbart and the Washington Free Beacon picked it up. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/06/04/nj-woman-stabbed-to-death-waiting-for-state-permission-to-own-gun/ http://freebeacon.com/issues/new-jersey-woman-stabbed-to-death-by-ex-while-waiting-for-gun-permit/ I deleted the National Review link; redundant from above.

Obama's Not Done With Gun Control Yet
I'm so glad the 10 Republicans voted to confirm Loretta Lynch so her department could follow through on this. And I see that here they're going to reguire background checks, fingerprints etc. for 'responsible persons' in gun trusts, and not bypass the local LE approval for acquisition. Lot's of good stuff there, eh?
-
Obama's Not Done With Gun Control Yet
The Hill is reporting on a raft of new regulations the BATF is preparing to impose this fall. This is the same strategy as using executive action. Who needs a legislature when you have an unaccountable bureaucracy that will do your bidding for you? Despite all the problems we have in NJ, we can't take our eye off the federal ball. Those of us preparing or planning to leave this state for others will not find refuge from federal constraints. http://thehill.com/regulation/243520-administration-preps-new-gun-regulations Notice also the 'domestic violence' card is also being played nationally. Anyone smell some coordination?

Breach A Door With An AR
The shaped charge I referred to was on the Israeli version. What does the GREM use?

Breach A Door With An AR
My Picatinny contact tells me the Army version is the GREM. Grenade Rifle Entry Munition. He says it works as well as it looks in the video. And he would know.
-
Breach A Door With An AR
Of course you'll still need an 'accessory' to complete your mission. Check out this video. An inventive use of a single 5.56 round to breach a door from 30 yards away. Oh yes, you need a shaped charge too. http://allenbwest.com/2015/05/brilliant-big-boom-tiny-bullet/

OGAM exemption "reason for exemptions request" ?
I know a couple troopers who would get a laugh out of that one.

New Jersey Rep Takes Her Phobias To D.C.
I agree completely with this and the rest of your post. And I have done exactly that with more than one person on more than one occasion. That particular evening however I was a guest in someones home, my host was the surprisingly declared anti-gun liberal, and the others were classmates I hadn't seen in 40 years. Besides being stunned, I simply chose not to start a political food fight. I was far from home, and knew there would be no conversions that evening. It was a purely social get together.

OGAM exemption "reason for exemptions request" ?
Well, all these smart alecks have had their say. And they're pretty funny aren't they? I had a good laugh. Now, if you want to use the Collector's justification, please read the statute carefully. The statute itemizes all the possible legitimate reasons for an exemption to be granted. Take advantage of that. Use each and every one that truthfully applies to you. Example: I require them to complete a collection of modern handguns I started (whenever). All these firearms were acquired by my FFL for me specifically. Some of them were hard to locate. I expect to use them in competitions this coming year. I am a full member of (list all the 2A/Firearm organizations you belong to) Thank you in advance for your consideration. Mission accomplished.
