Credit Card Fraud
When you freeze your credit you do not allow any new credit to be given without you reactivating it. It's a bit more in depth than a temporary fraud alert. So now i know that a fake mortgage, credit card, auto loan, or anything can be created in my name. Yes, when I am applying for a new card or car loan do I have to reactivate it? Yes. I am still vulnerable to someone stealing my existing cards but the fraud you DO find about is better that the fraud you find out about two years later and it's too late. Just go in each credit bureaus homepage there should be links for "freeze my credit" It's kinda hard for me to read on here when people write "what's the big deal, you are not responsible for it". Well if you've ever had fake credit taken out in your name yeah you don't pay for it monetarily but the problem that follows you for years (all the explaining) is priceless

Actual law for transporting long gun
Well my best friend (he was in my wedding) is the COUNTY PROSECUTOR (for a very urban county let's leave it that no need to out him) and he exactly tells me "have FID carry long gun anywhere unloaded, expect to get arrested though if you're driving around in a car with it hanging out, but you have not broken the law" So I put it out there again. Do you believe the info coming from the guys who don't want guns in the streets? (The police) C'mon. And with this I am officially retiring from trying to defend the law correctly on this board. The point just never gets believed.

Educating the Anti, NJGunSense.com
The amount of bad info about laws given by LEOs, FFLs, and range officers is just mind boggling. I took my NRA intro to pistol class with GFH and thank god Rob just laid it out for me the truth first time around. Firearm in the trunk OR cased. And ammo anywhere you want None of this crap about locked cases, locked ammo boxes, unloaded magazines. Sheez. You wanna be careful then be my guest. But let's please never debate the law if we know what's writ and what's not. (Like loaded mags) I'm not AGAINST debate. I'm just saying if youre admitting "well I just want to be extra careful" let's please not add that to the LAW discussion. I'm sorry I just think it makes it worse for everyone when we are speculating "well here is how I transport" in the context of trying to discuss the actual law (agree with it or not) Abive not said in bad tone just frustrated hearing this topic again

Educating the Anti, NJGunSense.com
Great job. I like it. It's a site that puts in plain English what the current laws are. If you try to make it a "change the minds of the antis" a website won't do that. I like it. And it can be used in dialogue. "And I urge you to read what the laws are already at NJGUNSENSE.com"

Credit Card Fraud
I've been victim of full blown identity fraud a decade ago. It still follows me around here and there to this day 6 months ago I went on all 3 bureaus and did permanent credit freeze. Now I sleep sound at night my credit is locked down. It's simple. All done online

concealed carry appeals Essex county
And if anybody else on here gets offended in my style of SOLVING questions on here then speak up. I think I go out of my way to put to rest many rants on this board for example "someone pleas cite for me long gun transportation laws?" Or "why did the reporter say the store owner had a permit" those last gems recently. I don't know any other way to drive home for the 10th time how to read statutes then I break it down like "are you getting this point?" So i piss people for speaking the truth ?

concealed carry appeals Essex county
Spartiati it pissed you off that I cleared up all the confusion? Yeah that's nice. In all fairness it wasn't directed AT YOU it was directed at a plethora of people who kept wanting to know what was so special about his appeal. For you to take umbrage that I put that matter to rest is bewildering. Yes I said plethora and umbrage to prove I am intelligent enough to have clear concise posts but boy I don't expect that standard from everyone on the internet. Getting annoyed at someone for not doing that right is like chastising a child for eating too many cookies.

concealed carry appeals Essex county
He said it like 3 times he's doing it just to do it. There was an open request for everyone to do it a while back it fizzled out. Guys stop asking him details like he's some trailblazer or something. He's taking a bullet for the cause not inventing a new bullet. Get it? I'd still buy him a drink though for getting a voice heard.

Action Alert: Forum on Gun Violence in Hackensack, 3/19/2015
This is damn good. Something else I've been thinking about is that when we speak up at these symposiums it always seems like we are not even equipped to answer the same questions they ask all the time and it makes us look bad. So we should start compiling: Q: "is there not one single sensible gun law you would accept?" A: "yes of course there is. How about a law that stops gun violence against a man from Hoboken shot in front of his wife while Christmas shopping at the short hills mall. What gun law do you propose that stops that gun violence?" Q: "isn't background checks for all gun sales just a common sense thing to do?" A: "all people in NJ follow the current laws that says that you must be an eligible person (not a felon, not have a restraining order etc) to buy a gun even in a private transaction. The only way a "bad guy" gets a gun is if another criminal sells it to him. So what law have you proposed that keeps a criminal from buying a gun?" See the key here is they call it gun VIOLENCE, we call it gun CONTROL. The only way we come across better in these symposiums is to use their language. "Of course we stand in agreement with you to stop gun violence". ( now tell me again how this law does that?)

Combat Medic's Advice on Caliber and the One Shot Myth
Excellent read. But here's my takeaway: I'm never gonna be in combat so is absolute "kill" my final destination? Why i thought I had learned after a few years of reading this awesome board is about "comfort, confidence, ability to stay on target, etc. Let's say there is an HD scenario or some day if I ever carry let's say a mall psycho or car jacking. Do I want one shot one kill from a .357 magnum revolver or do I want what I hope would be 3 well place shots from a Glock 42? (I hope I got that new small Glock number right I'm not a Glock boy) Maybe this is thread drift but my point is "one shot stopping power" versus what I can shoot the best from my bedroom? Yeah i understand in HD if he didn't go down was I effective? I dunno? Does he have to die to stop coming at you? I don't know. Can I put 3 in him with 357? (Would I be proficient shooting that as well as my M&P 9?) I welcome thoughts. It certainly makes you think. I just kinda bring this up because we debate about best HD weapon and many people feel that an AR was best (the round, the capacity etc) but now I just read the above at how "lame" the 556 is???

Need help with 1 security camera
If the neighbor knows nothing about IP addressed and port routing the only choice is a plug and play like a drop cam Or dumb it down even further and use an iPhone or iPad as the camera and download the Icam software. (Don't know if it's night vision though)

Need ammo cans?
We'll wasn't actually fishing. But it was one of my "wonderings" why guys wanted ammo cans did they think it was a law. I see guys at the range bring locked ammo cans all the time. Now i don't reload so I'm dealing with ammo in factory boxes I could see the need for some sort of storage for loose ammo but if the main reason was "transportation laws" we should get that misinformation cleared. I believe that was well covered a year ago when we debated whether you could even drive around with loaded mags right next to your gun in the same bag. The answer was YES.

Need ammo cans?
Ahhhhh so here is one I was getting at? What nj law says ammo needs to be In a different compartment than the gun? Mine all goes in the same bag to the range.

Need ammo cans?
So I'm feeling pretty ignorant here. Why do you guys need so many ammo cans? Is ALL your ammo stored in steel cans because you don't have a separate storage box? Is this a transportation issue? (There's no law that says that. I have one steel can but never really use it for anything. What am I missing? Sorry for dumb question.

Franklin Twp PD - Cannot transport to range without FPID
Kevin this is where you need to stop or drive yourself crazy. There is no law that tells you what you CAN or cannot do. Laws are not written that way. These is no statute that says I am not permitted to slice my neighbors throat. The law just says murder is illegal. Get it? All handguns are illegal unless you have a permit or posssss it in an exempt area. Long guns are legal anywhere if you have FID. (Don't anybody be a smart Alec of course prohibited person and gun free zones apply) Search forums for key word "transportation" we beat this to death less than a month ago.

Best choice for HD ammo (.223/5.56)
If you ever have to shoot in defense of your life, you will likely experience auditory exclusion (as well as a host of other physiological and psychological factors - tunnel vision, time dilation, extreme attention to visual detail, "magnified" vision) making you not even hear the shots. Yeah i get the mental aspect in the heat if the moment "I didn't even hear the rounds". But the damage to your ears is still there nevertheless. I'm not advocating grabbing the muffs in the split second your life depends on it. What I was asking was not every situation where you could go for your gun at home would be a split second decision. Could be anything where you could have more time. Civil unrest, maybe something bad going down at the neighbors house. A threatening person on your lawn. Etc

Best choice for HD ammo (.223/5.56)
Sordin/MSA Supreme Pro X that are plugged into our radios. They work well. Have we ever done a thread about "quieter" rounds for HD? I mean is there even ammo made to try to be quieter?

Action Alert: Forum on Gun Violence in Hackensack, 3/19/2015
The way you get in questions is not to make it so obvious you are 2A. Like when someone asked me at the mall to sign a petition I said "so how does it work for someone to buy a handgun in NJ? Can you explain the process to me?" And she totally got it wrong. So if you are able to ask questions you put it back on them to explain the facts and they dig their own holes. If they DONT say you get a P2P first and then another NICS check then you can blast them for lying. But if they actually tell the truth then you just say "isn't that system already in place a great system? So you're admitting that criminals can't legally get guns. You gotta get them to vocalize OUR facts. Not just let them say stuff like "we need UCB..." Just get them to admit it's extremely difficult for a person in NJ to get a gun. Background Mental health References Finger prints Just go "so can I just walk into a store and buy a gun in NJ?"

Question
You guys missed the point. The above poster put in capitali letters OUT OF STATE and have paperwork to prove it. If we fight so much for our rights to do FTF and COE then why would you go out if your way to PROVE a sale? Thats my point. You're telling the guy to produce a piece of paper fir when there might not even be a piece of paper showing he even owned? See the difference? So correct you do not lie. But I'm not producing paperwork if they are sold. Screw that. "They are gone". And if they thought I did an illegal transfer (which I would not) they can go ahead and try to charge me with that. Good luck If you are unraveling a relationship finding an out of state buyer is last on your list. I applaud the idea of the sale to protect your property though.. And I think it was great this topic was brought up for anybody else who even THINKS they could be in a bad relationship. Get those puppies out of the house

New Shotgun- CZ Redhead
Used beretta 686s can be had for $1500 in great shape. Maybe I'm just splitting hairs here. $2k vs $1500. Just wanted to clarify. But that CZ looks great congrats.
