www.ammoseek.com lets you pick what your looking for then gives you links to vendors online who use their service. It shows the price per box or case, and what the cost is per round. Make sure you check out shipping charges before purchasing. Some online vendors have very high rates. www.sportsmanguide.com is not bad. They often do free shipping weekends. Check the Marketplace tab on the forum for the link. And make sure you check with your local gun shops. Sometimes they may be not much more than an online vendor. Of course you will have to pay NJ sales tax, but in some cases compared to the shipping costs it doesn't add too much to the cost of a box of ammo.

Sounds kind of like an advertising pitch, but question 26 on the application asks the question about if you have been treated by a psychiatrist either in patient or out patient. Of course, since he's looking to make a buck, your not going to get any "free" advice. I would suggest reaching out to NJ2AS and see what they would say. If you saw the doctor like 15 years ago because you were going through a tough time, my opinion would be you are ok. I am guessing your doctor would need to write you a letter of some kind saying you were of sound mind and not a threat.

And crazy. I was married to one once!

Not sure who the mfg is, however there is "high security" drywall that was developed for housing projects that is very hard to breach. Its basically drywall backed with lexan. I also know of someone who did a similar project and put up sheet metal behind the drywall. It's not the same as building a vault, however it's not going to be as easy as just hacking through with an ax if you want to get in. If you arm the room with motion sensors and an alarm that is monitored, it should work.

WaWa vs 7-11 = WaWa... it's a south jersey/PA thing... Starbucks vs Dunken Donuts Coffee = Starbucks (regular coffee is still somewhat normal priced)

I've shot this ammo too, only 100 rounds but everything was fine.

Is it on the CBS local or national news? Unfortunately we don't get CBS 2 down here in the land of south Jersey. Can someone post a link or the interview after its aired?

Welcome!

I hate the credit card companies. Made some bad choices in my early/mid 20's cause I got offers left and right. Long story short, it ended in a bankruptcy like 11 years ago. I decided at that point to never use credit cards again. Manage to buy a house without a CC, however that was before the housing bust when loan regulations were lax. Fast forward to 2011. Started looking into buying another house and selling mine. Sat with a reputable realtor in my area and his finance people ran my credit to see if I would get approved. Paperwork came back from the bank saying I did not have proper credit. The fact that I pay my car and mortgage on time for the past 5 years did not mean anything. I was told I had to get at least 2 credit cards and use them to build my credit. WTF? I got a department store card and a visa. Since my credit score was low, could not get more than $300 credit limit on each of them with like a 20% APR. The kick in the a$$ to this: as per my loan guy, never carry more than 50% of my total available credit over from one month to another, and don't pay off the balances when you get the statements immediately make a purchase. So if I leave one card with a 0 balance, and charge $250 on card number two, I should at minimum pay $100 on the first month, carry $150 balance into the second month and not make a purchase till the third month after I pay off the $150 balance in month number two after the initial purchase. This has become more work than I feel it's worth. Makes no sense to be punished by banks for not paying them their monthly/yearly fees and APR's. So much for the idea that paying the bills that matter on time would make you look responsible!

I know I will never move to the UK after reading this!

lmao

Welcome!

I too joined up there about a month ago. I have only been there once on the weekend and it was not jammed packed, but busy. I believe they had a 300 yard competition going on. My schedule allows me to go in the mornings on week days. I usually aim for 9-10 am, and there are like 1-2 people there. A couple of times I went around 3PM mid week and I literally had the entire range to myself! I have been there about 8 times and so far everyone I have encountered has been very friendly and very sportsman like. They do have events on weekends and occasional classes offered by Gun for Hire. When they have an event, they only close the particular range that is being used, so if theres a competition on the 300 yard range, then the 100, 50, and 25 are still open. They also have a tactical range that is for training and other events only, so if a competition is being held there, the rest of the place is still open.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome!

Ironic. This story appeared in the NJ feed of my Associated Press App! Note the last paragraph of the story. House, Senate advance bills ending monthly gun cap BOB LEWIS Published: Feb 1, 2012 19:35 RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - A law Virginia passed a generation ago to end the states' reputation as a haven for gun runners is on the verge of being repealed. On a largely party-line vote, the House passed Wednesday with a 66-32 vote the measure to end the law that limits handgun purchases to one a month. Only two Democrats - Portsmouth's Johnny Joannou and Washington County's Joe Johnson - siding with the GOP majority. A Republican, David Albo of Fairfax, voted with Democrats to oppose it. A similar Senate bill was engrossed overwhelmingly on a voice vote before being reconsidered and delayed for a day. They were among several pro-gun bills winding their way through a gun-friendly General Assembly under total Republican dominance this year for the first time since 2001. One bill that advanced easily to a final Senate passage as early as Thursday would eliminate the right of local governments to require that applicants for concealed handgun permits submit fingerprints. Another restricts the questions that may be asked of firearm purchasers. The bills to abolish the one-handgun-per-month law would end one of the legacy laws of former Gov. Doug Wilder. The Democratic governor pushed for it after Virginia became a prime supplier of guns used in crimes in major East Coast cities. There was no immediate response from Wilder to telephone messages left for him Wednesday afternoon. Del. Joseph Morrissey, D-Henrico, noted that current law allows for the purchase of up to 12 handguns a year - more with the proper permits - and contended the repeal will return Virginia "to the days when we were the gun capital of the South." "An individual can go into any gun store and buy an unlimited number of guns," Morrissey said. Supporters argued that information technology advances had made instant background checks of gun buyers commonplace, and that because of it the law had outlived its usefulness. They also said the bill was in infringement on the U.S. Constitution's 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms. Morrissey countered that no right guaranteed in the Constitution is absolute. People aren't free to cause mayhem by yelling fire in a crowded theater and are held accountable for speech that's slanderous. If religious freedom was absolute, he said, Mormons could still legally practice polygamy.

$599 however I did a check through PK90's web site and it was cheaper. It does look like fun. There is another higher caliber version that I believe shoots 410/45long colt.

While driving through Delaware today, I stopped off at Miller's Guns since I keep hearing about it from my fellow South Jersey gun types. Something that caught my eye was the Rossi Circuit Judge in 22LR/22Mag. I was wondering if anyone had one of these, and what they thought about it. Thanks in advance!

I'm not going to argue you on the point about getting more rights, however take into consideration that in the majority of jobs in the USA, there are common bonds which result in mutual patting on the back. Unfortunately in the LE business, the mutual exchange can be turning your head. As far as the pensions and benefits go, don't hate the LEO or firefighters or whoever. They have a union that negotiated a contract that someone elected agreed on. If you want to blame someone for their benefits, blame the politicians. They could have said no in the contract negotiations!

Something is kind of strange when you tell someone for 25 years or so, they have a duty to act then one day just turn it off. Cops, firefighters, EMT's spend their careers reacting to things that go bad. When you do that every day for several years, duty to act becomes embedded into you. Even though you retire, nothing says you throw out the oath you took to protect and serve in your respective discipline. When a LEO retires they do become a regular citizen but the bonds of the brotherhood they belong to don't just evaporate! I am curious though as to how on duty LEO would respond if he/she was suddenly caught in a shoot out, alone, and either a citizen with CCW or a retired LEO with CCW stopped and offered to help. Would they be charged if they exchanged gunfire with the criminal? Would the on duty LEO tell them no thanks, my back up will be here soon?

Given we are in the PRNJ where every town makes its own rules on top of the garbage we get from Trenton, I would assume they would confiscate ALL of your guns until the investigating authority determines it was a "clean shoot" that was "justifiable".

Welcome!

I would love love to see it pass here ahead of the federal legislation however this is NJ. Regardless of my energy and desire to push for our pro gun causes, I have to say reality is we will need HR822 to pass this way we can end up in SCOTUS and win with the law suit.
