A few questions from a new NJ gunowner
Ah, Leslie Edelman's Route 22 Watchung (or thereabouts). Where I bought my very first firearm. 6" Blue Steel Factory Tuned Colt Python. Still glad I listened to the salesman!

Where's All That Ammo Going?
I came across this data study from Ammo.com this morning. They published consumption figures by state up through March 27. Texas gets the first place award. BTW, in 9mm still only Gold Dot and Federal HST in stock at TargetSportsUSA, and at the usual prices.

Telll Murphy To Open FFLs NOW!
OK, you are correct. I just tested it and got the same error when submitting. That was not the case when I submitted my complaint. When I tested it before I did not actually submit something; just check that the page was valid. Now get this. I went to the IT contact page, filled out the form and specified the page failure, and when I hit the "Contact Us!" button to submit it I got: 404 Error That page doesn't exist! They must have shut down all the contact pages. Maybe they've been overwhelmed with all of it, not just the firearm complaints.

Will the Covid Rescue Bill INCREASE Unemployment???
No they won't. There won't be any performance. They've fired all the musicians and pocketed the $25,000,000. Do we get it now?

Wow! I checked inventory before I agreed with the post. So that was less than an hour for depletion.

More information on the Covid-19 $1,200 bailout checks
Here's a clarification of why the $2.2 Trillion bill is really a $6 Trillion bill overall, thanks to fractional reserve banking. And if you didn't read that last article I posted, let's see the chart that describes where the $2.2 Trillion is going. BTW, notice the $131 Billion 'Other'? 45% of the direct payments.

More information on the Covid-19 $1,200 bailout checks
You know, when giving everyone a $15/hour minimum wage was all the rage, many asked 'Why stop there? If $15/hour is OK, why not make it $50? Won't everyone be better off?" OK. So if $2 Trillion in additional debt is OK ( really $2 Trillion plus $4.5 Trillion ), why not just make it $350 Trillion? That way everyone in the country gets $1,000,000 and our worries will be over. My personal suggestion is just have all the banks add an "Adjust Account Balance" button to our online banking interfaces. Then we can just punch up whatever we'd like our balance to be. Where would that money come from? Who cares?

More information on the Covid-19 $1,200 bailout checks
Forbes has a description of the bill workings. Assuming it's correct: "The payment technically is a tax credit advanced to your 2020 taxes that you’ll report on the return you file in 2021. The money will go to most households based on their 2019 tax return. For those who have not yet filed a 2019 return, their payment would be based on their 2018 return. If you are a retiree who didn’t file a return for either year, the IRS would use your Social Security benefit statement to determine eligibility. " So if I understand this explanation correctly, we get $xxxx now in a check. It's reported as income for 2020. But we take a $xxxx tax credit on that return. The other story I read (that I can't find) simply said it wasn't going to count as taxable income.

OK. My understanding is this will not be considered taxable income.

Not all of it. All the national debt dollars represent money loaned to the government by 'investors'. Of course the taxpayers are supposedly on the hook to pay it all back! But will we? This entire bill is going to blowing this year's deficit through the roof and beyond an orbit. And along with the Federal Reserve creating money with keystrokes on their computers we'll be damn lucky if the U.S. dollar doesn't crash at the end of all this. Although I agree with your sentiment. So it looks like we'll get $2,400 of our money back before we send it in in July. Whoopee! You're free to write a check to the U.S. Treasury any time you want. That's what I tell wealthy people when they tell me they should be paying more for their fair share. "How much did you voluntarily send in this year?"

Telll Murphy To Open FFLs NOW!
I'm not sure what this Java error indicates, but the Contact page on the website is still working as of 3:15 PM Friday. My test is based on a Windows 10 PC with either the Chrome, Internet Explorer or Edge browsers. I have not seen the website fail. If you're on a different OS or browser (or mobile?) that doesn't support Java that might be the cause. Although I'm not positive.

Well done KC! That's true. That doesn't mean we shouldn't hold him up to public scrutiny. He does care about politics.

Telll Murphy To Open FFLs NOW!
At his news conference yesterday Governor Murphy said: “I respect the Second Amendment. I have gotten not one complaint from anybody that they were trying to buy a gun and they couldn’t.” So I just wrote to the Governor here: Topic: Law and public safety Sub-topic: Civil Rights Governor Murphy: At the Governor's news conference on March 25 you stated that "I respect the Second Amendment. I have gotten not one complaint from anybody that they were trying to buy a gun and they couldn’t.” Well here is your first complaint. I have completed all necessary paperwork and background checks to purchase a pistol which is waiting for me at my FFL. But since you elected to suspend my Second Amendment Constitutional Rights by declaring all firearm dealers 'non-essential' and closing the NICS service, I cannot take possession of the pistol. You are alone in this position, since the Democrat Governors of Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Illinois have acknowledged the rights of their citizens, and not the wishful fantasies of gun control activists. Please reconsider your position and re-classify firearm dealers as essential. All your work to suppress the coronavirus threat will be useless if the citizens of this state cannot properly and robustly defend themselves, should that need arrive during this crisis. Thank you in advance for your reconsideration. I think he needs to hear more than one complaint! What say you? If you agree you should email everyone you know to get on this, and not just forum members. Note: if you use this form, write out your text ahead of time and copy and paste it in. Phone numbers must be entered without hyphens. If you make a mistake on the form, when you go back it erases the message you typed.
