The wrench probably cost more than the bolt.

Must be a Hi Point...

No hate here. It just leaves the real ones for the rest of us...

I re-bought a gun last week just because it came with ammo. It's a RIA 1911 in .38 Super. I bought it years ago for $400 and sold it through my FFL last year for $450. The buyer needed cash and brought it back to the FFL to sell. I paid $550 for it the second time, but the kicker is it came with 700 rounds of ammo and 2 additional mags. The last thing I needed was another 1911 but for the price I couldn't let it sit there. The ammo was worth more than the gun.

In the free states this is what happens when delays become too long. https://patch.com/new-hampshire/concord-nh/new-hampshire-overhauls-gun-line-face-calls-disband-it Now, the FFL makes a phone call and stays on hold while they check. He gets an answer either way before he hangs up. From what I understand NH pulled 7 troopers off the street to handle the call volume.

Pics, or it didn't happen...

It's no secret I like the Beretta 92 platform. Found these 2 at my LGS over the last couple of weeks to add to my collection. The first is a Wilson Combat Centurion with the action trigger. This matches up with my WC full size and WC Compact. The second is an early model 92FS from 1989 in the original box and case with all paperwork. Just a basic 92FS with the early model grips, and it was just too nice to leave at the store. Anyone else got some new ones to show?

Sorry to hear. Prayers to you and his family.

Unless you're using it for reciprocity, and I'm not sure where a non-resident permit is good for that anymore, there is no benefit for the NH non-resident permit. NH went constitutional carry a couple years back. Anyone can carry here as long as you're not a prohibited person.

There is the potential for delay at every step in the "process". The NJSP FIU is an easy target, and mostly well-deserved, but local PD's take their direction from the Chief and sometimes the Prosecutor (and them through the NJAG). If any of them are anti they have the ability to slow things down to a crawl. Even in towns that are friendly, some people applying for permits still treat them like crap. I can almost guarantee those folks get slow-walked through the process. The short answer to "Why is it slow?" is "Because they can"... There is no accountability for taking long, and no benefit to them in doing it efficiently. It's government - they aren't here to help.

Here's what I carry when I'm in a suit...

Ouch... I feel your pain. I remember looking at a hemi 'cuda back in 1980 or so during another one of the gas wars (or at least when gas prices went up for a while) and didn't buy it because I didn't think I could afford the gas if I used it as a daily driver. Plus, I was a poor schlub and would have struggled to put together the $5k it would have cost me. Ugh. Another buddy who shall remain nameless was always a Mustang guy. His first car was a '69 428 he bought new at Morristown Ford, that he wrapped around a tree after 6 months. His second car was a '70 Shelby, evidenced by his name in the Shelby registry. When he got married in 1974 he (wait for it) traded it in on a new Mustang II because his wife couldn't drive a stick. He HATES when I remind him of that. At least he still has the wife...

Should have been an atomic wedgie...

*AND THEN* - Biden realizes he won't get "gun control" through the legislature so he decides to tax ammo at 40% and eliminate online sales - all through EO

That's one I had that got away. I had a 68 XR7 with factory 4 speed. I sold it when I couldn't afford to rebuild the front end back in 1981. I've missed that car every day since...

Needs to be restored, but it's been in the family since 1958. It hadn't been out of the garage for 40 years when I was able to tow it up to NH. Until then I'd never seen the right side of the car. Second pic is what it looked like in my mother-in-laws garage - yes, it's in there somewhere...

The article is right - I never knew that car existed. I loved the big block 4-speed Impalas, the Buick would have been perfect for me at the time.. My first car was a '71 Chevelle that I basically beat on until the automatic trans locked up on my going around the Netcong circle one evening. Since then I've had more cars than I can count. Fast forward and I've had my '69 Mustang Sportsroof for 25 years and inherited my wife's parents college car last year - a '56 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible that I'm restoring. I'm at a point in my life I can enjoy them. The pic is them in my workshop.

If you think ammo is expensive now, wait until he taxes it...

Unfortunately, I agree that NJ is on the forefront of the "screw the gunowner" curve. What happens in NJ is a precursor to what the dems will try in the rest of the country. That said, it will take a packing of the USSC to make drastic changes in national gun policy. States like NJ know they are 1 USSC case away from shall issue at any given point. What I see happening is what Biden can try to do by executive order - banning internet sales of guns and ammo, an ammo tax, mag limits etc. The problem we face nationally is the dems are limited on what they can accomplish for the rest of their agenda, so they focus on things they can do that make it appear they're doing something, all the while everything they do actually accomplishes nothing. Gun control is exactly that. It's just like what happens in NJ. State debt, taxes, cost of living all out of control, but a mag limit? Easy to do and they can scream about the accomplishment. There isn't a thing being proposed that would affect what they consider to be gun violence, but everything they do is a talking point about making us safer, and a distraction from what they should really be doing. The only thing a politician really cares about at the end of the day is staying in office. If they think they'll lose re-election by supporting something, watch how fast they back-peddle. It's those dems from gun-friendly states that need to be shown the light. Face it, Biden is an idiot. He's a useful idiot to them but an idiot regardless. Kamala is in charge and I don't see her being able to hold the dems to single issues. If Pelosi survives she'll be catering to the progressives. Schumer already does.

Could be a 36 Pontiac. Certainly a custom.

Guys were lined up at the range with their own ammo. If I'd been there I would have spent a couple hundred rounds to try it...

I walked into my local FFL yesterday to find a crowd gathered around this thing. Is too cool! Wheels are a bit cheesy but the rest of it seems pretty high quality. Takes Glock mags. They took it to the range later in the day and went through about 2600 rounds in 20 minutes.

Has the LGS put a price on it?

You never know, when I was in NJ I used to get 5 at a time, every time, for 5 years. When I moved to NH the 3 I had left made great targets at the range...
