SCOTUS: Court denies gun rights cases 02/24/14
The only thing I can think of is that they don't want to be doing 2A cases every term. So, if they had taken one of these, it may have reduced the likliehood of hearing Drake. In that sense, it may make it eaiser for them to hear Drake. But who knows.

How do you ccw ?
Mexican Carry is the original concealed carry method. The term comes from the days of single-action revolvers and gun belts. At that time in Mexico regular citizens weren't allowed to carry, but many did anyway. If they saw the authorities coming, they usually had enough time to ditch/hide the gun, but not all that leather. So they took to carrying IWB with no holster. Perfectly safe with a SA wheel gun (hammer down on an empty chamber). However, carrying a Glock that way is best reserved for geniuses like Plaxico Burress.

OGAM now 33 days?!?!
From Shore Shot's website: IMPORTANT INFO With the State Police guidelines now clearly defined on the one handgun every 30 days policy, the total wait between handgun purchases is 33 days. 30 day wait and a 3 day administrative grace period. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about this.

Don't know if you're serious, but .22s have killed plenty of people.

"Reasonable deviations" to be clarified in exchange for 10 rounds
He's also a West Point grad, served active and reserves and his 3 sons are all active duty.And he's a patent attorney (some of the highest paid lawyers) so he's likely not in Trenton for the paycheck. Sounds like politician who's an actual patriot.

That's what I was getting at. You said condition one, must've meant condition zero.

How Do LEO's Feel About Gun Control, CCW Etc?
I think the benefit of this, inasmuch a there is one, is that it's counters the argument posited by gun grabbers and assorted sheeple that only the fuzz should be armed. Even they don't feel that way.

How Do LEO's Feel About Gun Control, CCW Etc?
That poll and others like it represent the views of rank and file LEOs, not the politicians that run their agencies. And the big difference between NJ and out West is our effing voting public. The CLEOs who have 'stepped to the cameras' and filed lawsuits are almost always Sheriffs. They're elected by the people and are therefore accountable. And since the electorate is comprised of reasonable, unbrainwashed Americans, the Sheriffs they elect tend also to be reasonable unbrainwashed Americans. Police chiefs on the other hand, are appointed by politicians, and don't generally give a fuark about our rights. In NJ, Sheriffs are also elected, but by the same dingbats that elect the Sweenys and Weinbergs of the world, so there's that.

It's a good thing I sold my 15 round mags to some guy whose name I can't recall, who shortly thereafter moved to Alaska. Or Arizona. Can't recall which.

How Do LEO's Feel About Gun Control, CCW Etc?
Did you even lookat the survey? The responses were overwhelmingly pro-2A. Here's a breakdown of the results: http://www.policeone.com/Gun-Legislation-Law-Enforcement/articles/6183787-PoliceOnes-Gun-Control-Survey-11-key-lessons-from-officers-perspectives/ Bottom Line Conclusions Quite clearly, the majority of officers polled oppose the theories brought forth by gun-control advocates who claim that proposed restrictions on weapon capabilities and production would reduce crime. In fact, many officers responding to this survey seem to feel that those controls will negatively affect their ability to fight violent criminals. Contrary to what the mainstream media and certain politicians would have us believe, police overwhelmingly favor an armed citizenry, would like to see more guns in the hands of responsible people, and are skeptical of any greater restrictions placed on gun purchase, ownership, or accessibility. The officers patrolling America’s streets have a deeply-vested interest — and perhaps the most relevant interest — in making sure that decisions related to controlling, monitoring, restricting, as well as supporting and/or prohibiting an armed populace are wise and effective. With this survey, their voice has been heard.

Indoor range allowing for 7.62 shooting?
Bullet Hole in Belleville lets you shoot just about any gun. Some ammo restrictions: no armor piercing, incendiary, tracer, steal core [& maybe bird shot]. $15/hr pistol, $20/hr long gun. 1/2 hr increments available. Lanes are 23 yards. EDIT: I've been there when it's slow and wasn't held to the hour.

Kansas Buck Survives 2 Months With Severed Head Locked in its Antlers
- Utah CCW Class in Millville 2/20/14
I'm in for the Keyport class.- NJ only issued 1195 CCW permits
Update: I asked my guy to verify the retired LEO figure. The number he got is 2 year permits issued by the county judge. Retired officers get a 1 year ID from NJSP, so, no that number doesn't include retired LEOs.- NJ only issued 1195 CCW permits
For some perspective, I asked a guy who asked a guy who knows and in one County* there are 45 active CCWs, of which 90+ percent are conditional permits and retired LEOs. *Central Jersey, population about 3/4 of average. So add another 1/4 to that number x 21 counties = 1,176 +/-. So 1,195, maybe 100 of which are regular citizens, sounds just about right.- What are ya drinking?
At the risk of being the odd man out- All day, everyday...- Some one apparently tried to rob Super Man
As for complying, I've always been impressed with the Muslim teaching on this: "A man came to the Prophet Muhammad and asked: "What shall I do if someone comes to me with the intention of taking my property?’’ He replied: “Do not hand it over to him.” The man asked: “What shall I do if he fights me?’’ He said: “Then fight him.” The man asked: “What if I'm killed?’’ Muhammad replied: “In that case you are a martyr.” The man then asked: “And what if I killed him?’’ Muhammad replied: “He will be in the Hell-fire.” The right of self defense... understood by everyone, everywhere (except scumbag liberal politicians and idiot suburban soccer moms).- Some one apparently tried to rob Super Man
Instant "what goes around comes around", literally.- Carrying... How to deal with kids?
"he isn't trying to conceal specifically." Honestly, he should pick one and stick to it. The accidental transition from concealed to showing probably freaks people out more than open carry.- Rifle in trunk, car. Why?
-If you're not yet in your car, popping the trunk and slapping in a mag may often be faster than getting you and yours in to the car and driving away. -If the car becomes disabled in a shady or desolate area, I'd move the rifle to the inside of the car (discreetly concealed in a large duffle bag) with mag handy until help arrives. (I'd be taking out of the car anyway if it's getting towed or left overnight). -If stranded by weather, far from help, a gun might be the difference maker. Etc. Again, dealing with the law afterwards is preferable to burying your loved ones it they having to bury you.- NY SAFE Act claims another victim
Doubtful that he forgot. The article says an anonymous caller reported that someone brought a gun into the school. That sounds to me like he regularly carried in there and pissed off someone who knew that. Probably a woman. - Utah CCW Class in Millville 2/20/14
