High Exposure

The money paid by a few thousand (that's a generous estimate) people from 5 or 6 states applying for out of state permits and/or renewing every 3 years or so will not fund the salaries and the operating costs of the division/unit assigned to process the paperwork and keep the records.

Wait, why would you want a conversion anything or even bring up a conversion as a benefit? [sarcasm] Why not just get a gun that was built to be a 357 Sig from the get-go? Aren't you concerned about reliability and legality IF said firearm is used in a self-defense role? Let me ask you, which gun do you think would be more reliable? A Glock 22 converted to 357 Sig Or A Glock 31? Seriously - Why do all that "conversion" nonsense when you could save yourself any drama by buying a 357 Sig gun? A G32 for example, that was born a 357 Sig with 357 Sig parts, slide, frame, and all the rest. Doesn't it just seem risky to you? But, hey to each his own. [/sarcasm] #hypocriticalRayRay https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/86808-glock-22-9mm-conversion-checklist/#comment-1116142 Anyway..... In reality, if you bought a 10mm Glock, you can convert it to shoot .40 and 357 Sig by just swapping in conversion barrels. Now, I don't know about the rest of your topic, as I don't really care about either caliber. They both seem to be favorites of people that just want something different for the sake of being different - and that's OK. I do see the benefit of 10mm for hunting and outdoor activities, but as a self defense round it may be a bit overkill.

Rob, To touch on your point: Currently under HR 218/LEOSA any sworn LEO in good standing can carry a handgun off duty in all 50 states. However, we still have to abide by the states magazine capacity laws. When the act was originally passed any ammunition restrictions had to be followed as well - for example a Cop from TX could not carry hollow points and had to restrict his gun to a 15 round mag when coming to NJ. The last update eliminated any ammo restrictions (as long as long as the ammo was what your dept issued/mandated - This change was due to insurance issues of all things, not the lawmakers getting smart about ammo choices) but did nothing to address any magazine restrictions. So currently, yes, even though I basically have "national reciprocity" I have to be aware of magazine capacity restriction whenever I travel to make sure I am not in violation. I can only carry 10 round mags when I go to NY, CT, MA, DC, MD, or HI. I don't see this changing anytime soon either.

Well, I hope you for more than $100 for it because I had cash and permits in hand!

Brother I hope you are right. You are much more optimistic about that than I am. I can see NY, NJ, CA, MA, and CT really fighting it. It will be a long battle.

Sure. For 49 other states. Not 5 or 6. Like I said, I hope you guys are right.

Sam I hope you are right. I just don't see it. Bean counters will pick up on that as a quick way to save money and cut budgets. States will have to do a lot of non-res permits, charge a hefty fee per permit, and probably attach a yearly fee to the permit to ensure funding - all to pay for an agency that will oversee the issuing of permits for people that don't even live in their state. We'll see. I just worry that national reciprocity will be our worst nightmare in NJ.

Johnny, what state will continue to provide non-resident permits when they don't have to because all the other states resident permits are reciprocal? What state will fund a department that will be obsolete?

A thought- If this passes, how long do you think states will continue to offer non-resident permits for out of state CCW holders? The other states will start to shut down those divisions that cost money and manpower that are no longer necessary. IE: If federal law states my NH permit is good in Nevada, why will Nevada spend money to keep a non-resident CCW division going so NH residents can be issued non-res carry permits for NV? If we as NJ residents can no longer get out of state carry permits, because free states no longer offer them as there is no need to provide non-res CCW services - since any state residents's CCW license/permit is now accepted nationally, we will be the only people not able to carry in our own state.

Updated family photo: I just got two stripped Glock frames and built up a third G35 with RMR and a G19. My new RMR is getting sunk into the G19 and a KKM barrel and Comp is going on there. An Overwatch Falx trigger for it is on the way as we speak. My issued G22 for work is missing as it's in my locker at HQ. I'd like to get one more stripped G17/22 frame to put my AA .22 slide in as a full time

I know @Ray Ray. In the movie, the next line after Bluto's "Germans bombed Pearl Harbor" bit is when Otter says "Germans?" I was setting someone up for Boon's line: "Forget it. He's rolling."

Germans?

The Leupold DeltaPoint is quality optic. I personally prefer the Trij RMR, but the Deltapoint is a legit contender. Of all the other MRDS options, it is the only one I would consider outside the RMR.

If you shoot your Glock the trigger cleans up nicely. Dry-fire polished. Now, as to the sights, Plenty of options out there. Just pick what you like.

Louu, Fugazi was awesome live, especially at Maxwells - such a small venue.

I saw Mike Doughty there right before they shut the place down. There was a dive bar in Long Branch across from the Library on Broadway near 7th we used to go to all the time and see "Psychedelic Oven Mitt"... I can't remember the name of the place...

@Maksim hosts this board. He's our own crazy Ivan. Thank you for this place.

So you keep saying. I keep pressing the trigger, and hitting the bull. Meh, it could be worse. I could be stuck on Mossberg or Berettas. Yuck!

Who is going to measure and time it? The prosecution isn't. Who is going to certify the device used to measure distance? Who is running the stopwatch?

39:4-144 deals with stop signs. 39:4-81 deals with traffic lights. Two different statutes. Yeah, it can be dangerous. Personally it falls under the heading of "Just because you can, doesn't mean you always should". It also doesn't give you the right to just pull in front of a moving car because the car in front of you made it through the intersection and you came to a stop behind them - 2) proceed when safe always applies. Knowing you weren't at fault at an accident scene because you know a bit of esoteric MV law is cold comfort when you are looking at a totaled car or worse, an injured person. Its basically for those stop signs that you can clearly see in every direction, and you know that the car or cars in front of you and your car are all that on the road. Sometimes they refer to it as the "right of procession". May be mentioned in there that way....
