  1. I have a class scheduled for Saturday March 8th.. So far I have 4 students two of which are a couple and all are novices. The is a great opportunity if you have been look to take a class with your partner.. I really would like to keep this class restricted to people with limited* firearms experience. Class Fee $99 The Range charges $25 For $10 I will supply a mix of 9mm, .38special, .40sw, .45acp to complete the live fire check out or you can bring your own ammo. The class would begin at 8:00am and end with a trip to the Range for a live fire session.. The Price includes Pizza Lunch on me!!! PM me if interested and for more details Also, if you really can't afford the $99 perhaps we can work something out in trade. I can always use Ammo... * - Lastly if you have significant firearms experience and just need the certification for a CCW or something PM me.. I might be able work something out for you to help as an assistant instructor during this class. I could use help with Ensuring range safety and providing 1on1 assistance during the field strip exercise. Especially with the 1911. During my last class guide rods and springs were shooting across the room more times then I could count.
  2. Is Hawaii impacted by the 9 circuits ruling? They are worse then NJ as far as "May issue" goes
  3. Thanks for the Google lookup.... But I was more interested in perhaps having a discussion with someone here that may use the Hornady ammo I mentioned or had a similar concern/experience and was interested in sharing there solutions/thoughts. I find it interesting to read what others on "THIS FORUM" think about a topic. People who's opinion I have gain respect for, find amusing, ect. It not a big deal, I'll just keep an eye out for signs of setback and rotate mag rounds so the same top one is not the only one getting chambered..
  4. Home is a 5th floor condo with restricted building access. I feel ok with not carrying while home. I do carry in the common areas like while at the pool or in the arcade / ping pong rm. Any info re bullet setback would be interesting... Thanks...
  5. In Florida I use cable locks thru the barrel in a small cheap safe when I get home... It is not something I feel comfortable enough to leave the guns loaded in.... I have teens and pre teens in the house.... Whenever I get home the chambered round comes out and i top off the mag, the mag stays loaded waiting to put back in again the next trip out.... Even if / when I invest in a better safe I would only leave one home defense gun loaded in the house... Since my system down there rotates thru 3 guns the ammo will be cycled in and out of the chamber a lot... Smoken .50..... Hardcore = Yes, Pistol in the pool = No.
  6. After chambering a round having to remove the mag to top it off got annoying...especially since the last round is a bitch to get in the mag.. Being in vacation mode I was in and out several times a day... So it was not just one load up per day. With the repeated chambering of the same top round in the magazine do you notice bullet setback at all? Is this an issue requiring vigilant rotation or just something to occasionally take note of? Is some ammo worse then other? Using Hornady critical defense with the polymer expanding tip now but open to suggestions.... If all goes well with the SCOTUS cases Very soon this forum will need a dedicated Concealed Carry section and pocket .380/9mm guns will all have a six month back order.... What a great problem to have... CA residents thought they had a year of appeals yet to go but both Orange and San Diego County Sheriffs decided to start abiding by the Shall Issue policy now.... I don't think many people saw that coming....
  7. I just got back from a week in Florida where I had the opportunity to work thru my CCW system. Up till now I have only had short day trips to PA or a weekend in FL to test thinks out.... I really learned a lot. 1)Forget about the +1 capacity... When loading, and unloading constantly having the extra round with nothing to stick it in was annoying as was the extra mag swap to get it in there.... 2) I'm to fat for IWB, outside with untucked shirt worked best. 3) Public restroom were a challenge... Still not comfortable doing the business with a loaded gun laying in my pants crotch. 4) After the third day the novelty wore off and CCW is just work.... 5) I needed 3 different system to meet my needs... A)For doing Craig's list shopping in some unknown areas that often turned out not so nice I wanted the G26 9mm in an outside the waistband with over shirt. B)For General around town I used the Ruger LCR .380 in a pocket holster.... C) For the beach/pool when wearing A bathing suit and Tee Shirt the NAA Mini Revolver 22magnum in a kydex neck holster. I have a long way to go... I'm sure things will change.... But till then... That's my system and I'm sticking with it...
  8. I was reading one of the articles on smart guns and someone is working on one that the owner can remotely deactivate.... To me this translated to the gun may be hacked and the bad guys or government will be able to remotely deactivate your gun... Imagine a world where only these types of guns are allowed and the police can deactivate under the guise of public safety.
  9. Bergan County or at least north of Rt 80... RTSP is almost an hour from me
  10. I meant "Manual of Arms" - the specific operating procedures of a particular weapon...safety...trigger...action...etc...
  11. RTSP is a little far.... Trying to setup shop in North Jersey...
  12. Part of the class is cleaning, field strip, and learning the battery of arms on multiple types of handguns.... Just not the same without them...
  13. I think I know the answer here but is there any way I can legally conduct a training class ( with actual Handguns) at a location other then my home, the range or a permanent business location. I would like to be able to rent a conf. room someplace to conduct the training. Is renting a conference room at say the local VFW hall an option? ( doubt it) However, I was thinking one of the time share type office retails.... Where numerous tenants rent the space and you reserve it the days you want to use it.... I could likely get an actual lease, and everything. Any thoughts?
  14. I agree.... Having SCOTUS address the issue of reciprocity would be a long shot.... Perhaps once carry outside the home is addressed it would give enough momentum for congress to get a National Reciprocity Bill like The H.R. 822 pushed thru the following year.
  15. If the Supreme Court rules we have the right to carry outside our home will that force states to accept reciprocity from other states or at least offer a path for non residents to obtain a shall issue permit as well? My right to free speech and to be secure in my papers is intact when I travel to NY... So should me 2A right??? Do you think this will all be address in the hopefully pending SCOTUS ruling? If reciprocity is not on the table right now it needs to be the next main fight to focus on.... As I keep reading "the right to self defense should not end at my front door"..... It also should not end at the state line....
  16. Baring anyone saying they have a specific source of data that call Scott's numbers into question I see no reason to think otherwise....
  17. I don't think Scott Bach would throw out the 1195 number and specifically clarify that it included Leo and armored car security in front of 1 million listeners if it was not true.... If someone has a relationship with him perhaps they can ask him to post the source documentation he received in discovery?... Then again it may not be possible since the case is on going....
  18. According to Scott Bach discovery on the Drake case has revealed NJ only has 1195 active carry permits.. And this includes armored car, armed security and retired police... I would love to know the number of regular citizens that have carry permits... I would bet it is under 100 in a state of 6 million people... What a joke it is every time I hear all 50 states now issue carry permits...
  19. My order just went thru... Thanks....
  20. Jfoster99 replied to FocuzMan's topic in Rifles
    Wasr 10/63 would be my favorite out of the rifles mentioned...
  21. Let's say everything goes they way we are hoping.. Anyone care the guess how long it would take for a decision and then how long to actually have a permit in out hands? I say one year for a ruling and two for a permit in hand is about best case... What do ya'll think?
  22. That is the one... Centerfiresystems.com had them for $239...
  23. BUY OR better yet build a dedicated .22 upper and start using it right away....Then add a dedicated lower... The $50 polymer Omni stripped lower is a great matchup for a .22 upper.... I purchased the Chiappa M4 dedicated .22 upper last month for like $239... It is NJ legal.... The first range outing went flawless... Then over time you could replace the polymer upper with an aluminum one to improve the quality and some say reliability...
  24. So far we have 4 people coming... I have room for One or two more if you are interested... If the $99 fee is the issue with attending PM me and let's see what we can work out .... Especially if you or perhaps your wife are new to shooting and can benefit from a Basic Pistol class. I really enjoy teaching new student that have never shot a Pistol before.
