They just got another one at Lucianos... $1840 I believe. More on order...

Yep... My first ccw was back around 1978 and was restricted to NJ biz only... That was and basically still is the only way they issue them. Back then, they stamped right across the card. SCOPE OF DUTIES Only or something like that. Then through the years I've had them, most had that on there in smaller print somewhere. I've had at least 7 ccws and let them expire because I just didn't want to carry any more. Wish I kept my last one, but it was always a mission. Just to renew, you had to go to court again... They literally keep you under a microscope during issuing a card.

Unless you have a business in NJ that requires you to carry, like a PI, Security, etc., etc... Like they said above, it's almost impossible. If you do have justifiable need, you will need to present your proof in front of a judge. He still may or may not grant you one. Then, if he does, it will not be a 24/7 carry. It will only be a carry during "Scope of Duties".... In other words... while you are working. That's it.

Boils down to what the manufacturer decides to call it. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Just installed the 49.95 upper. Seems to have no probs. Anyone else do theirs yet? Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Heh, yea... Like watching American Guns or Sons of Guns.... Lotta badda boom! Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Was looking to see if they were the blue tips. Real ones require at least 80 meters to go off. Didn't look that far either... I think they are doing well for what little training they got. I like it so far. You just can't read too much into it. They are not going to let anyone get hurt, live fire or not. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

C'mon.... These guys barely had crash courses. What would you expect? Myself, I appreciate this whole concept in what they are trying to convey. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Listened to it Sunday... Great show! Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Yes, one of the best all time movies comes back. Looks good! I'll watch!

Looks like he stopped the updates to virtually nil. Oh well.

They had one at Lucianos a few weeks ago. Had the fake silencer on it. They are hard to keep in stock they tell me.

If what you mean, suffering part. The training is one thing. The real life scenario is another. What you can take while watching from an audience pov is not the same as needing to take action. Instinct kicks in, adrenaline, etc. you just do it and puke later. I can't speak much being out of it so long. I'm sure there are enough first responders around here that can enlighten you on up to date prep. I can say my first worse scenario was at 17... 2 murdered victims, teen and his girlfriend. Took weeks for it to kick in... Then nightmares for years. 2nd was at 18 arriving at at jack knifed tractor trailer. Driver was already on the ground, and his brain matter was hanging out. More nightmares... All of which went away. From that point on, adrenaline took over and my only goal was to fix the problem and try saving lives. So being prepared with the right gear is great. But learning to be prepared to handle it takes some guts and will power. Lot of my buds that went the emt route never made it passed their first autopsy. You need to be ready to handle these things... Squeamish you cannot be. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

You're right. But it's a start. Better than not knowing anything. My wife was an EMT for years... So got quite enough experience here. I did Rescue and First Aid... But most won't know how to use most of the things correctly needed to be stocked for those types of injuries. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Haven't heard anyone say get certified first. Nothing wrong with getting a first aid course, advance course, cpr and some other classes. I know I could use some updates since I've been in the squad... Then go out and get a nice bag set up. I have a well stocked bag in my truck and my motorcycle as well as one at the house, etc. I'd also like to think most ranges have qualified personnel onboard with kits available.

From what JT is telling me, I'd have to get like an SEI threaded gas lock and jam nut that would let me screw theirs on. Its all one on there now he said. Would it still be NJ legal that way as long as I kept the standard stock with no pistol grip then? Almost thinking not worth the cost all together to do this.

Dang it, the bugger went right over our house this morn and couldn't get camera out there fast enough. Blah! Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

I doubt she'd ever get in a hammock without a thunderous thud to the ground creating a new crater in her property. You should really try to promote her eating and sleeping. Better yet, call Richard Simmons and tell him she's been trapped in her house for ten years because she can't fit through the doorway. Ahhhhh, shame on me.... (:-/ That's not nice....

They don't because Dick Tracy said so and what he says is gospel in my book. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

I have several different 15 modified Magpuls and some work fine, others are too tight. Guess depends who makes them. MidwestPX are tight. Ones I got from riflegear.com are fine. (shrug)... Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Btw, slickguns are not the only ones out there that harvest or however they get their discount codes. There are several... All with the same codes. Just an FYI... You can also see reliability ratings for them... Not even close to 100% most of the time so I'm not the only one. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

What can I tell ya? And I didn't say unreliable all the time did I? Just saying what's happened several times with me. They were all dated correctly, rules were correct, but upon checkout, Brownell rejected them. Wasn't the first time I tried either. Maybe it's only one company. Unfort, Midway didn't have what I needed. (shrug) Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Yea, and quite often, they don't work... They had some for Brownells and they were all rejected. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

That drum looks like a generator in my truck... lol

Another build a guy did...
