  1. Can you point me to the thread/post about the change in the priority policy? I can't find it I do remember things getting heated on here when they silently disappeared from the forum and dropped their NJGF walk-on discount. Re the handgun storage they told me (around 2009) they weren't holding them without a PTP or offering storage service anymore for members because of pressure from the NJSP
  2. Thanks millsan. I was reading on the Bluewave site that are expecting to speak in support of the bill so I think we may have another chance to speak again(?) "Your response has been recorded." P.S. their signup form is powered by google, I advise you sign out of your Google account and delete all cookies prior to making arrangements
  3. millsan, do you have details on what time and where to tell the front desk I'm going?
  4. That would be incredibly awkward. I am driving in for sure but looking for clarification on what time to show up and where to tell the troop at the front desk I am going.
  5. I for one resent the term "weapons-industrial complex", it makes me look fat What's the deal with this, are We stopping by the State House on Thursday? I'm in but could do with some info like where, who, when, etc
  6. Perhaps we underestimated his political savviness.. He is pissing on your face and telling you it's raining. Reality check: it is not raining. He is pissing on your face. He is not a good guy for taking time out of his paid full-time job and paid part-time job to meet amicably with you in the hopes you go back to your NJGF friends and tell them he is a good guy. If I could possibly trust that man any less right now I would.
  7. Alright, I'll say it.. cock and balls
  8. That's pretty cool -- residents of Totowa can legimately be inconvenienced by the 7 day waiting period between PTP application date and delivery date of the handgun as per NJSA 2C:58-2a(5)(a)! Great shoes to be in!
  9. I just printed this out myself so I thought I'd share. Here is the form to change your party affiliation to Democrat: http://www.state.nj....form-062011.pdf You have 55 days before the next Primary to change your affiliation: My plan is to change to Unaffiliated rather than Democrat. That way I can choose Democrat at the poll on Primary day and switch back to Unaffiliated the next day. There isn't enough soap in this world to be registered as a Democrat for longer than 24 hours at a time.
  10. Annoying, isn't it? I don't like it when someone belittles another person for exercising their Constitutional rights and implies that those who depend on firearms for their personal protection are dopey. I agree but I don't think it is appropriate to vote with your wallet here. I personally don't think they should spend a dime in NJ but I do think they can be more effective on the national level. I agree with your opinion that Wayne LaPierre (sp?) needs to be replaced as the public image. I remember the email and I was infuriated. It is my understanding from the rumour mill that they thought the rallies would be underwhelming and/or portray NJ gun owners in a bad light. I think a lot of us have expressed frustration at their decision there but I haven't heard an official response. However, I was extremely impressed with Scott Bach at the 2/13 hearing/rally and that dissipated most of the pent up anger I was feeling about the ANJRPC ignoring the first rally. I was also pleased with Frank Fiamingo and others from the NJ2AS at that hearing. I am curious how the ANJRPC and NJ2AS shared the burden of this event. Between the 2 organizations we can certainly present a formidable team should the opportunity arise to argue in proceedings not held in kangaroo court.
  11. In your haste to argue against things that I did not say, I'm surprised you didn't bring up that most of their candidates lost in the last mid-term election. Which national forum is it that you spend your time on? I like to read. Anyway, I am not defending them aggressively. I am saying not to discount them. People are making absolute statements, i.e. "I won't send them any of my money". And I'm arguing that it is worth it to send them a MERE 35 DOLLARS a YEAR to support them in ADDITION to supporting NJ-specific 2A groups. I know exactly what you're talking about? Don't put your words in my pie hole and respond as if they're mine. That's great you have developed the ability to physically defend yourself without a firearm. The weak and old should take note! And I'm glad that you're satisfied with relegating the RKBA to the luxury of "wants". Continue to ridicule those who depend on a firearm for personal safety. Well done.
  12. Us. I don't understand these ridiculous expectations for the NRA to be involved in NJ. Their lobbying at the federal level is essential. Why would they waste their money in a state occupied and operated by the Democratic Party machine? They'd be better off using that money for toilet paper. Are you aware that the ANJRPC is our state chapter of the NRA? Do your frustrations lie with them? You should have brought it up at the rally in Trenton last week. In my opinion their leader did a damn good job arguing against all those bills at the hearing. Which standpoint is that, that you've generously included most of us in?
  13. With all these fiddles playng it's easy to forget Rome is burning This isn't Sophie's Choice.. support the effort at both the state and the federal level!
  14. Been at SS for 5 years now and would like to stay I'll ask Kyle about the policy, will report back CJRPC is too far from work for me, if I get paged in while I'm at SS or MCRPC I can respond within 15 minutes -- no harm no foul BA.. range safety is a little too lax for me. Don't like people uncasing weapons behind me and there seems to be teenage gangbangers hanging out there. Or maybe that's just how kids dress these days
  15. Easiest way to fix that is change your contact number to XXX-555-1212 on your online profile before you cancel/lapse. I've never used a real phone number with the NRA and subsequently I've never received a call from them. They do fill up my PO Box every once in a while
  16. Do not discount what the NRA does on the national level. You may not like lobbyists -- after all the whole system reeks of impropriety and corruption -- but that's how the government works at most levels. Our fights for our civil rights in NJ are tough battles indeed. But our fight at the federal level is the War. I am a Life member of the NRA and have paid my dues in full but I still contribute to them periodically. Don't neglect the NRA-ILA, SAF, GOA, etc. Don't discount the NRA. Don't discount the NRA. Don't discount the NRA.
  17. Understood If you contact the NJ2AS they may be able to work on your behalf without a lawsuit. They can contact your C.O.P. directly or even indirectly via the NJSP. I believe they have done this in the past with non compliant towns. The letter your employer received is one of the more egregious violations of the law and the NJSP guidelines in particular and I suspect it will be remedied without any ill will or retribution for that reason (PD covering their own ass). Take action, man!
  18. The shelves are half empty, I would call first
  19. I normally go to Shore Shot during 9-5 work hours when most lanes are open. Recently I went when it was busy with lots of pay-per-hour customers and they were handing out raffle tickets to queue up for a lane I mentioned that I was a member so I could get on the top of the list behind any other members. The guy behind the counter looked at me with 4 eyes and then another told me they don't have that policy anymore Has anyone else experienced this? Being able to jump ahead of the outsiders was a major attraction to me in becoming a member and renewing every year. I would be even more upset if they were applying this policy inconsistently I only shoot one box a day so its a difference of a 10 minute range visit vs an hour or more. I'm not trying to start trouble, I actually like Shore Shot and most of the people that work there. I just want to get to the bottom of this as I am up for renewal soon P.S. While I am in rant mode, what's with the long guns in half the lanes at indoor ranges these days? Who the heck shoots frangible .223/5.56 @ 25 yards once they're zeroed in??
  20. If the town mentioned firearms on the letter then you may have grounds for a lawsuit. Definitely contact the NJ2AS. To confirm employment the letter from the PD need only include a request to forward a letter advising the PD as to how long the applicant has been employed
  21. You'd think he spent some time on patrol before he became a detective(?)
