  1. Yeah, boxed up should be fine for walking/public transportation. You could also take a cab, borrow a car, ask someone for a ride.
  2. Never had luck getting a permit/license at Wal-Mart. Always a personnel or equipment problem.
  3. Yeah, that's not what I meant. But there are a lot of really needy vet families who should be our priority. My family tries to do its part and through that we've seen a lot mil families in need and I think they should be our priority. Just trying to point that out.
  4. Yeah, they were running a sale.
  5. Aren't there other military widows who could use the money a whole lot more? I mean, everyone is free to do what they want with their money, but you do realize that Taya Kyle is millionaire who, even if the jury award stands, will still be a millionaire? The book alone has pulled in $3 in royalties. And after the film comes out, will probably rack up another couple of million. Then there are the movie rights, which aren't known yet since the total value is calculated as a percentage (2-3%) of the final budget (i.e. $50 million dollar film = $1.5-$2 mil in rights fees) And if the deal was structured right, some additional money on the back end. Plus what she stands to win in her own lawsuit against Chris Kyle's business partners. I'm just saying, this ain't your average poor widow struggling to pay the light bill,
  6. Well if it's good enough for a GLOCK... http://thegunwire.com/blog/salient-arms-international-tier-1-glock-19-the-2500-glock/
  7. Ask to speak to the manager and to confirm that it's actually a policy.
  8. Police don't do routine searches of vehicles absent some suspicion of a crime. Of course, that suspicion may not always be reasonable or even legitimate, but it's not something the average citizen going about his business needs to worry about. However, if you ever do get pulled over AND have your vehicle searched while transporting, the problem is already bigger than whether you can immediately prove you own those guns. EDIT: What Malsua said
  9. Even that's ???? If their assets are owned by the State, it's not like the CC company can just do a charge back against the vendor's account. It would probably require the CC co to take the hit.
  10. It was the first 9mm I shot and whenever I can get the owner to come to range, I shoot his gun more than my own.
  11. https://gunup.com/shop/smith-wesson-5906-used-g5906au The classic 5906 Smith and Wesson used in good condition all guns come with one 15 round mag not all guns will have factory grips. Guns might have slight scratches and dings but are rated in overall good condition and are mechanically sound.
  12. Since no one said it yet: try shooting from a rest/sandbag at 7 yards. That will at least tell you where the gun is shooting relative to the sights. If you shoot it carefully from a rest and it's still all over, then there's probably something wrong with the gun.
  13. Lol, definitely. I had no intention of taking that "course".
  14. ^Gospel truth. Look, I firmly, 100% believe that the right to be armed is a God-given, civil, human and constitutionally protected right and that every day that right is denied me or any other free human being, our freedom is diminished, our humanity degraded and our God-given rights trampled. Seriously.But I feel that way because it's one of the hallmarks of free men. Not because I need it right away. If I did, I'd just move 45 minutes west of here.
  15. I have my training requirement covered for most states (not Utah). That said, is this for real? https://www.onlinecarrytraining.com/faqs I saw it in an email from groupon.
  16. I don't get to carry. It sucks, but that's what it is right now. But WTF would I be happy that someone else couldn't either? If NJ turned around and started granting carry rights to CPAs I would (after about a day of "why didn't I become an accountant") be happy for them and glad that a few more humans are carrying in this God forsaken state.
  17. You have to have 10 years in before leaving the job to qualify under LEOSA. EDIT: There's no minimum service requirement if you're retired (the wording in the Act is 'separate') from your agency for work-realted injury/disability. So if your boss retired on a work-related disability, he should qualify.
  18. Call or stop in and ask what's holding them up.I've had long delays in Edison too, but it's always been the mental health check from my former county.
  19. Last time I put in for permits I asked about it.I was told it's not necessary and your permits will still be processed without it. I didn't fill it out and my references got their letters two days later. EDIT: The woman who handles firearms stuff has always been very professional and helpful. So aside from that form still being up on the website, Edison isn't bad to deal with at all.
  20. I ordered a 100 pack of the 8" pop-n-glo targets from the link. $25 shipped. I have a few hundred repair dots, so these should last a while.

    Yeah, I agree. The three on my short list are going to get a test run. The purpose of the thread is to gauge whether any others need a closer look. Or alternatively, if one of the short list guns has some defect that would make it a no go for me (like the trigger on LC9s)
  22. Has anyone here tried making their own? The method seems straightforward: bright colored paper, clear packing tape, black spray paint. Maybe I'll give it a shot this weekend.
  23. illy replied to illy's topic in Handguns
    Nope. Even my cheap Ruger P series autos have run 100% [except for that one time a new shooter limp wristed my P95, but I'm not counting that]. As far as I'm concerned "never had a failure" should be a given in any quality firearm.

    Nice gun. Congrats.
