Thanks Lunker! I'll get a FedEx personal account today, assuming its an online signup. As for a $35 transfer fee, I may have to take a look at that fees sticky again.. stings a little sinking 100$ + into a "like new" handgun, but I rolled the dice on the dreaded "ambi mag release" 21SF and lost.. silver lining is I get a brandy new gun!

So, I need to send a handgun back to Glock for replacement, so now im on the hook for the shipping costs, as well a transfer fee, and permit. From what I've read the USPS will not allow handguns to be shipped by an individual. FedEx will ship, but must be 2nd day, which is quite expensive.. I have seen FFL dealers on gunbroker who ship handguns USPS priority mail though, is this only available to FFL's? I'm thinkin it may be cheaper to have an FFL ship this gun for me.. anyone have experience with this?

As an afterthought, I think it bodes well for the OP that he's been contacted to correct the application, I would be inclined to think the PD would've flat out denied you for answering falsely, or like I said, worst case, yanked your FID

I think the hostility you're sensing is from you totally dominating the 2012 arms race thread!

As theDon said, your CLEO has alot of latitude in deciding if he feels you're a threat. However, I wouldn't worry too much, non-violent disorderly persons don't seem to be a big stumbling block. I have a petty disorderly persons from 1990 that didn't cause a problem for me, but again, it's really up to one person at this point. The marijuana arrest may play against the substance abuse question too. If your PD has already issued you an FID and P2P's previously and now decided to deny you, you might've been asked to surrender your FID, if they felt you were a prohibited person, or against the interest of public safety.

Liked! What a cutie!

Hackensack it is! Coincidentally, enroute to grab a sack of white castle!

I remember seeing a thread about people advertising firearms related stickers and such on their vehicles. I dont personally see the need. This guy apparently DOES Sorry for the crappy pic, but note the discreet glock stickers on the trunk and rear windshield oh...and the vanity plate

According to an email from kel-tec They're running at full production and splitting the supply between distributers. Apparantly, full production means they're making one rifle daily... Evryone should just wait for me to cough up 600$ for one on GB---theyll be plentiful and cheap two days after I get mine

Pm sent

Great transaction, nice guy! Thanks!

Sadly, these practices are rampant, especially considering people know less about their HVAC equipment than their cars. Yes M'am- you need a new flactoid valve: 300 dollars! So sad

That's a REALLY sharp, classic .357 right there!

True indeed! Get money-buy gun Repeat Only problem, Which gun, in what order?

Hadn't really thought of the S&W as"luxurious" but I'm guessing you got a security six for three bills? Nice pickup! One more for consideration

Or a GP100, good lord I'm getting indecisive.. This is probably gonna come down to a coin flip

Thanks all, I'm going to get the 686, 4" barrel. I was hoping to hear that Taurus had come a long way or something, and have cash left over to put towards something else! But, what I already knew in my gut was, get the S&W!

So, I've decided that a .357 is a must have for my upcoming set of permits...a taurus is 1/2 the cost of the s&w 686 I was eyeballing, which means I can afford a pistol & probably squeeze in something else too! Anyone have positive feedback?

And I thought I was impressed with your work before! You're taking it to another level there brother!! Simply awesome

Matt, Glad you're OK! I was actually thinking about your lack of activity lately, I know this won't help, but as you get older, your life will get MUCH more insane.. Take my word for it!

Reading stories like this break my heart, as a parent, I can't imagine what this must be like..but, I'm ambivalent-- I cannot comprehend how this could happen? Leaving a firearm accessable to a child this young is inexcusable-period Once I was old enough to be treated as an adult, I had access to firearms, and never, once abused that priveledge. Now as an adult, my son (12) does not have access to my firearms, but knows damn well what to do if he's in the presence of one, and there's no adults present. As much as I can empathize for these parents, I'm more furious at their irresponsibility

Mistakes can certainly be made, but when I picked a long gun last week, my FFL had the NICS gal on speakerphone, and she immediately mentioned I was only approved for a longarm,since I had picked up a pistol 2 weeks prior, and had my date for next handgun right on the money.

I've shot a bunch of the "blaster" ammo. So far so good!

True, but the extra 1.25 (or whatever) is worth it, cause Joe's so handsome!
