The "face palm" emoticon was not meant for sarcasm. If that was my intent, I would have used

Nope.

I never said or hinted that I could have done any better so let's not play that game. My problem is with the flawed system in NYC which severly hinders people from using a firearm to protect themselves (and family) but forces victims to rely on an armed force that has no duty to protect the citizens. Read my posts above -- I don't blame the officers.

Sorry but shooting at stationary paper target between 7-15yds doesn't teach a person to discern what is beyond the target. Look at what happened months ago when the 2 NYC officers shot at the guy who killed his boss. That was a spray & pray scenario as multiple bystanders were getting tagged by "friendly fire".
-
Okay, that is not exactly spray & pray but the one that got away took an innocent life.

A buddy who is a NYC cop. He's a good shot but his daily routine requires him to issue tickets. Same goes with a buddy who's a NJ cop -- absolutely no firearm training other than shooting at a target to qualify.
-
Most NYC cops are not trained to handle these types of situations. The spray & pray tactic has it's consequences and this is another example. Cops are not to blame -- the system that forces the public to rely on this is responsible.

Nassau County police said the Hofstra University student killed during a home invasion robbery was the victim of friendly fire from an officer. http://www.myfoxny.com/story/22289473/suspect-arrested-in-shooting-death-of-a-hofstra-university-student#ixzz2ThTk1nkT

Unless the SP misplace your form, you should hopefully be okay. Did you extend your permits?

I'm using data from this thread on a spreadsheet to track the delays. If possible, can all the new approvals follow this format? Date Start: Date Finish: results can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ap8BAjyRhnQ5dDdrRTh1dEhxZkJSQm9LTTNFRUxIdFE#gid=4 Thanks

You should contact your FFL. According to members that had NICS submitted on 4/26, they got their approvals by 5/11 - 5/13
-
Unfortunately, there's nothing quick about how NJ is handling our NICS situation. There seems to be a reversing trend in the delays and that could be attributed to a couple of factors: 1. Additional personnel were added to handle the NICS checks 2. There has been a decline in NICS queries

Looks like average times are starting come down a couple of days. The latest approvals took 15-16 days. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ap8BAjyRhnQ5dDdrRTh1dEhxZkJSQm9LTTNFRUxIdFE&usp=sharing

It looks to be plexi-glass cut to shape & size. I wouldn't count on a pin alone since it could be pushed through into the mag body.
-
I took a vendor's pinned mag apart (at an undisclosed location location far, far, away) and it consisted of the following: 1. Plastic spacer/limiter cut at a specific length which was held in place by a pin in the bottom plate. 2. Floor plate was secured in place with a generous amount of instant glue on the track finished with a small roll pin.

Nice, they allowed their customer to pay manufacturer's cost on the product.

If I was the cop, I wouldn't have waited as long to put down that donut unless it was the Bavarian cream filled kind -- damn things are addictive. Anyways, as soon as the carjacker proceeded to gain entry into my vehicle, I would have lifted my leg towards the perp's chest holding him back thus allowing my Glock to accidentally discharge at him as I remove it from my Serpa holster. Certainly sounds plausible behind a keyboard.

It's a hare slower than my mower. Add another bunny and watch the potential multiply.

00:55 on video Reporter: "We've also seen a lot of police officers with heavy artillery... we're talking about automatic machine guns on the ground"

I see what you did there.

Time to bring in some bait cars in Orange.

I don't recall reading/hearing the Gov't raiding their offices.

I wouldn't trust Kris to work on a Nerf gun.
