BTW, I took pictures with my cell phone of the sheet of scores for Jon and Anthony if you need it.

Wilson Combat
You can order it directly from Wilson and have them ship it to a local FFL. It's extremely unlikely you will get it in 90 days if it's a custom order, but you can extend your permit another 90 days.

best way to get my wife into handguns?
Take her to a First Steps Pistol or similar intro to handguns class. My wife (then fiance) was almost physically afraid of guns before I took her to one of these classes, primarily because all she knew about them was what the media has been spoon feeding her. After taking her to one of Gun For Hire's First Steps Pistol class she became a lot more comfortable with guns and went and got her FID and a couple P2Ps.

I've been debating switching to single-stack with my SW1911-9. If I do that you can use my G17.

Sick of sitting behind a desk all day/sales
Dunno if it's your cup of tea, but nursing will always be in demand and will get you from sitting behind a desk. It's a hard job but supposedly is very rewarding. My wife went through a similar predicament and decided she really hated her cushy but extremely boring and frustrating job with the state and is now in the process of switching careers and going back to school for nursing.

Looking for engraving?
Before replying with such an incredibly douchebaggy answer how about you exercise your reading comprehension and read the guidelines for the forum: Or if that's such a bother to you feel free not to post.

Pined Stock Question
I'm curious, how are stocks pinned in place? How un-doable is the process? I've only dealt with fixed or fully adjustable (OOS) so I've never actually seen a pinned one.

Time to stop with the "God Given Right"
In my opinion using inalienable rights instead of god given rights is far more effective in general. When you say inalienable rights you immediate invoke the Declaration of Independence and all the rights that are declared as inalienable. As VladG keeps pointing out, and so many of you refuse to see, we're not trying to convince the die hard antis but the people on the fence. These people are a lot more receptive to level headed non hyperbolized rhetoric. And even when you are arguing with an anti who you have no chance of converting there are usually a lot more people in the middle listening. Let the antis come off as rabid, emotional and illogical while you remain level headed and logical and you will win the fence sitters.

So much for Sweeney helping
Sorry axeman_g but that list is not 99.99% correct. Nothing the government does is even close to that level of correct, certainly not some list by probably the most retarded agency we have. Since you pulled a statistic out of your ass I'm going to as well and say that I bet at least 10% of the people on that list do not belong there. As to getting yourself off the list, I'll give you an anecdotal evidence from a friend at work. He was on the list because his name was the same as some IRA bomber from the 70s (nevermind he didn't fit the age etc). He never knew and all the flights he took he'd be put through extra "cavity searching". One flight I guess one of the ticket agents took pity on him and told him he's on the list that's why he's always getting extra "care". He sent in the form to get himself off the list but he never heard anything back and the special treatment continued. The thing that finally got him off the list is that 1.5 years later he applied for clearance at work and through that process he was finally removed from the list. So to recap, there are far more people on the list incorrectly than you think there are and there is no verifiable way to get yourself off the list. But hey, if it doesn't affect you fugg them, right? That attitude works really well until there is something you care about and nobody left to help you.

Recurring donation
Can you guys set up some way to do automatic recurring monthly donations? I do this with a lot of other places I donate to and it's great for both parties. I believe paypal can handle that and you guys already use paypal. And thanks for all your tireless work. I know I really appreciate it. Thanks.

Pledge
I am in as well. More than that, if someone starts a SuperPAC or similar thing whose express purpose is to drive out of office by any legal means the worst anti-2a politicians, I will donate to that as well. I want all the dirt possible on them exposed and splashed all over their districts.

STATEHOUSE FEB 13TH - merged threads
These past few weeks, and especially what happened today, have solidified in my mind that we can't use logic with these clowns as they do not seem to understand any of it. While I still believe the main fight will be in the courts, we all know how long that can take and in the meantime these human waste bags will keep introducing absurd laws just because they can. I have always been the kind of person who said we should stick to the high ground, but I'm f**king sick of this. I say we fight them as they deserve. Hire private detectives or investigative journalist to dig everything about them. Put up billboards and ads highlighting their dirty secrets. Hound them at every turn with their hypocrisy and use their language against them and record everything. Call up voters before election and play back some of crap that is sure to be caught on tape. It's no longer about educating them about guns, it's about voting them out of office no matter what even if they are replaced by someone of similar views as the main message is "you vote for anti-2a you lose your job". I think we need to start a SuperPAC whose express goal will be to get these guys out of office. I would gladly donate money to such an endeavor.

Favorite Pro Gun/2A Apparel
I've never been one of those people that wears shirts that advertises my favorite stuff or where I'm from or whatever. I don't own any apparel from my school, or for my favorite teams, or cars, or guns etc. However, given the recent increased douchebaggery of anti gun people and the fact I encounter a lot of them during the day, I actually want to get some pro gun/2a or related apparel and wear it so I can annoy these people. So, post your favorite such apparel in this thread. Perhaps others will find this interesting also. Please also post a link of where to get it. So far the shirt I like the most is this one from my very short google search: http://www.gadsdenan...polo-black.html

10 Million gun owner march in May...mark it, be there!
Not sure it's the best idea having it on the same weekend as Rolling Thunder. On one hand I'm positive the vast majority of the Rolling Thunder participants are probably gun owners or at least supporters of gun rights and thus capitalizing on them being there anyway will boost the numbers, on the other hand they may be annoyed about distracting from the POW/MIA message. Whoever is organizing this gun rally needs to get buy-in from the Rolling Thunder crew, otherwise it's a bit of a slap in their faces. If they can get buy-in from the Rolling Thunder people it will be a huge event for both with a lot of cross support.

February 8th, Pro 2a Rally
Anybody have some links about the rallies in the rest of the country. I'm curious how we did nationally.

February 8th, Pro 2a Rally
You mean 10% of 10,000 (1% of 10,000 is 100). So 0.1% of total gun owners in NJ. Sorry about being the math nazi

February 8th, Pro 2a Rally
Yea parking wasn't an issue. Parked 2 blocks away at one of the Trenton Parking Authority lots on N Warren street. Weather sucked ass but what can you do. Would much rather have had snow instead of rain. I bet our numbers would have been at least double if the weather had been nicer. Nice to see a decent number of non-fair-weather supporters
