Legality of carry knives in NJ
Carry an "auto safety" knife. Window break, seatbelt cutter etc.. I've been questioned on it, and I simply inform them I always have it when driving for a "whoops" scenario and it could possibly save my life

Offroading
That's what winches and snatch blocks are for I've pulled out plenty of people... It's all about how ya do it.

Offroading
For an off road vehicle, call me biased but I gotta go with a Jeep... I've got an LJ (Unlimited) I'd much rather have a TJ (regular length) as having the longer wheel base has been a disadvantage more then once, and hurt me twice today. This is from today.. What a lot of the trails @ Reed Rd to look like A while back.. Fun at work Video from today.. Small hill, nothing challenging https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=2495619921108&saved

Offroading
Reed Rd in Jackson is legal. Was there all day today. Some tight trails, some not. Some mud, some water, find the right areas and there is even some hillclimbing. Ill post some pics when I get on the laptop. Any Jeepers here check out NJJeep.org..

Dicks Ammunition Ban & NJ - Perfect together !
I picked up a box of 100rds there just cause I didn't want to wait, and we were already there. When asked for my FID card he could tell by the look on my face I was confused. He explained their policy. I pulled out my FID and got my ammo. Don't really see a problem with that.. He's only doing his job. Will I buy ammo their again? If im in the area and have the sudden urge to buy ammo, sure. Other then that CTD.com it is for me.. There is plenty of things to get fired up about, I don't see this being one of them honestly.

Curious about IDPA
I'm going to come check it out for the day. I'll be checking the site for the next day.

Curious about IDPA
Interesting.. Thanks for the info. Gotta talk to the wife. She won't be happy about another yearly dues fee lol

Curious about IDPA
I never knew what it actually was, until today. Sitting here bored and looked it up on the Google machine and I'm interested in checking it out.. Is there anything coming up that I can spectate and see if it would be something I'd like to do? I'm in Monmouth County but don't mind a drive.

Pennsylvania man shoots teens
I wonder how quickly our CCW laws would change if something happened to the law makers where CCW would've saved them.. Not wishing that or anything on anyone but if they had a "first hand experience" it would help our cause lol

Cops shoot (and Kill) window smasher in Cali (With Video)
Definitely a Taser, dude for sure took it like a boss.. Do both have to make contact with skin for it to complete a circuit and work function? Possibly LEO1 was aiming for a chest shot, one prong goes high and hits the face, heavy sweatshirt prevented the 2nd prong from making contact so it didn't work? It is indeed a conduit (not so much a pipe) bender. I use one at work. LEO2 makes a good shoot for sure IMO. I'd like to know if all 5rds hit the target? I would however like to see what made LEO1 engage the suspect a 2nd time with another 5rds. I would think that will come into question, at that point suspect is down, the dog could've did some work... Either way.. saves the Taxpayers some loot.

How many of you have taken professional training?
Ok, I voted lol
-
Friends and family members
I would think at that point (even though I've been out a long time) Military training would kick in... the old "challenge and response" would take over I'd hope before I made a decision
-
Friends and family members
All of my friends family know to give prior notice. Everyone I know has cell phones, they call beforehand. Then there's always Fred, he lets us know the moment someone comes in the driveway, or parks in the lot next to the house. Annoying at times yes, but he's only doing his job.

How many of you have taken professional training?
Does military count? Been over 10yrs since I'm out, but a lot of it still sticks in there... I didn't vote since I'm not really sure what counts and what doesn't. Basic first aid through work. GAPPNJ course coming up next month.. Starting to go to a friends school (Lyndhurst ATA) once we work out the financial details and schedule. Actually considered taking (paying) for EMT type courses and I'd like more "official" training firearms wise but life has other priorities at the moment.

Stupid question, but I couldn't answer it...
Well, I guess I'll use it on the Mossberg, that's about the safest one I would use it on I guess.. Side note, I grew up in the Burg. Recent (2yr) transplant to UB. Good point.. Learn something new everyday!
-
Stupid question, but I couldn't answer it...
Interesting.. I wouldn't have thought of it if he never asked. I do understand keeping it away from Plastic/Wood. Been around cars enough to know that's a no-no. Brake clean will actually MELT plastic. Ask me how I know lol..

Stupid question, but I couldn't answer it...
Had a friend of mine over that's not into guns at all, as I'm cleaning & oiling my XD and he asked me a question that I really couldn't answer other then "I wouldn't do it". But he's curious to know, as am I now.. (although I'd still never do it!) Can you, use an automotive cleaner such as Carb cleaner, Brake clean etc to spray a Pistol/RIfle down? I understand why he would ask, it does remove oil, and has the power (being an aerosol powered cleaner) to clean out those hard to reach areas (between small springs and such). I use cue-tips and an array of dental pics, brass brushes and a toothbrush and patience... But for Joe Lazy, could you for all intent and purpose, spray it down with Car/Brake clean and just re-oil? Do they make something for this purpose strictly for firearms?

NJGF Arms Race 2012
I'll play.. I got the Springfield XD40 Subcompact Two Tone OD Green & Black I predict at least 4-5 purchases throughout 2012. Not a lot I know.. Does earning a CCW permit count towards winngings??

Newark $1000 Gun Program
Ahhh poop, I went to rep the "snitches get stitches" comment and hit the negative on accident...

My New Springfield 40 Subcompact.
There isn't much at all IMO. Easily keeps a hand sized group as fast as I can pull the trigger. Falls back on target nicely..
-
One permit left, $677 to spend - convince me
I say accesories and ammo. Or, a nice 2 shot dillinger would be cool. I want to get one of those just as a "I have one" type thing..
