It's probably the NJSP mobile inspection team or whatever they call it. They regularly post up near the local landfill here and stop some of the trucks coming out to inspect the trucks for emissions equipment, fuel(not running off-road diesel), safety equipment etc.

Stapler Targets Extra staples Lube Bore snakes Metal cleaning rod in case I ever get a squib Magazines(my bag has 3 perfectly sized pouches inside that fit AR/15-22 mags) Range ID badge Range key fob(to open the gate) 2 pairs of eyes and ears. Ammo Bottle of water Sharpie Allen keys to disassemble my Buckmark pistol. Zip lock bags to put spent brass into I think that's about it.

The silo itself is in terrible shape: The part that has been renovated is the home and the control room below. Found these pictures here: http://photos.syracuse.com/post-standard/2012/07/zombie_apocalypse_saranac_ny_m.html

I'm definitely going to the SX race in NJ this year. My friend says he already has the tickets(he has access to a club box too apparently).

I ride a dual sport bike. Have had it on a MX track I mostly ride single track and double track trails.

Yes you can. Flew AC to Fort Lauderdale last Thursday, round trip with a checked bag both ways for $204, including tax.

Spirit from Atlantic City to Ft Lauderdale is one I fly quite often. 1/2 hour drive and you're in Miami.

I have the M&P 15-22, I actually cannot recall if I have ever had a malfunction. I really don't think it has. Maybe one or two failure to fire's, but that was ammo related- usually resolved by turning the round 90 degrees and giving it another go. I love it. Only thing I don't like about it is the 10 round magazines don't have a thumb button to retract the follower down. The standard 30 round magazines do, but in order to install the thumb button from the 30 rounders on the 10, you have to remove the follower- impossible to do with the mags being pinned internally. I use an allen key I have for my buckmark to hold the follower down as I load it.

Finally got my pistol home. It took me 152 days to buy a pistol in NJ. (I already had a FID, applied for 3 P2P's and NICS).

Submitted 5/6 Approved 5/20 14 days.

Sounds like Comcast. Plan(TV, internet, phone) started off as $150(taxes/fees included). It crept up to $196 and I called and complained and had them drop it back to $151. Within 2 months , it's already back at $174.

We have the Comcast phone. It's been rocky. It works probably ~85% of the time. We have had a few issues with it, where suddenly the "signal" to the cable modem wasn't strong enough(keep in mind nothing was changed or even touched).

The results on that don't even make sense. 1,343,157(75%) Says no regulation on guns of any type. 1,369,998(77%) Says congress should ban semi-auto weapons.

Yes you can buy long guns in PA. If you plan to bring them to NJ they must be complaint to NJ's gun laws.

It's Federal law... From the ATF's FAQ: As long as the rifle or shotgun is legal in NJ(not an assault rifle).

Was told last night by my FFL that they haven't been receiving NICS approvals on Saturdays anymore. Said they were currently running at 14 day returns.

I'm hoping mine, which was submitted 5/6 will be approved before the 22nd(the 22nd would be 16 days). I'm leaving for FL on the morning of the 23rd, and would like to take the gun I'm waiting for- an M&P Shield 9 with me to CCW, and go shooting with my friend I'm staying with down there.

http://riflestocks.com/store/product85.html Ordered! I too have damaged hotel room furniture using the slap on the edge method. I happen to notice the edges of tables all tore up now when I go into hotels

If anyone has first hand experience at Atlantic City, please post how that went. I'm flying to FL and am taking a pistol(if the NICS check gets done in time) in my checked bag next week. I planned on locking the gun case with a cable to the inside of the bag. I had stuff stolen out of my bag in Orlando about a year ago. I know exactly what the TSA does to inspect it, I am a former TSA officer. I don't think I can really divulge info about it though, as I am still bound by their security policy. I've just never been on the customer side of flying with a pistol to know how that goes at ACY.

PS90 posted a link earlier in this thread with the NICS stats: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78534756/NJ_NICS_History.pdf

NJ NICS did 8,977 checks in April. We're almost back down to pre-Newtown numbers, yet checks are taking longer and longer each day. It's time to do something about this. In November of 2012 they did 8910 checks, and they only took a matter of minutes.

My lgs also has had to put in extra shelving and develop a system to keep track of all of these guns they have piled up. I'd say there was at least 200 handguns sold pending NICS and probably the same amount of long guns. My pistol is one of them. The State Police have said it's because of the volume, but according to the statistics, the volume hasn't increased to the point of where it would take 2+ weeks for a NICS check. If before the mad rush they were processing 6000-8000 NICS check per month, and according to this stat sheet: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78534756/NJ_NICS_History.pdf NICS check for April are somewhat back on track for "normal" yet the checks are still taking 2 weeks, then obviously something is up. This isn't a volume issue. They are clearly delaying the checks. How can they process 7000 checks in a month in a matter of minutes, and they can't do 8000 checks a month in 2 weeks? It's time to do something about this.

NJ is what is called a point of contact state. All NICS check go through NJSP. They do the FBI NICS check in addition to checking other state databases. There is no reason NJ could not submit this additional information to the FBI and get their very slow hands out of the mix. The FBI already has the electronic system in place to allow NICS checks to be done in a minute. We already pay taxes to fund the federal NICS system, in addition to the $15 NICS fee NJ charges for doing it themselves. So we are essentially being double taxed. It'll also free up Troopers to get out on the road where they belong.

NJSP down here in SNJ just took 4.5 months(137 days) for 3 P2P's. Originally, in 2008 took 9 months with my FID.
