How about "Stay"? So you can tell him, "c'mere Stay!" and confuse the heck out of him?

Glock 34 vs PPQ 5"
I am not a Glock guy, and only ended up with my G34 by accident (long story, posted elsewhere), but after some teething problems getting comfortable with my G34, I really like it. Shoots very well and very accurately.

6 months and waiting
You can call the firearm departmetn in Trenton and give the city code and they will tell you the status of your application. No I don't have the number, but google does and your city code is on the FID and P2P application.

Gun Prices in NJ and the ridiculousness of putting up with it.
Clearly some people in this thread have never owned nor operated a business. I used to own a fairly successful paintball business. We prided ourselves on customer service. We provided many perks for our customers and our prices were higher than online. We helped teach you how to maintain your equipment, if you bought an accessory from us, we would install for free, and we covered the labor on any repairs outside of manufacturer warranty. We did offer online price matching, but if you made us match online pricing, you got online service, which is to say "here is your part, have a nice day". Your account and purchase were noted, so that when, invariably, you came back to us to try and use our free value added services, we could check whether you bought the item from us Internet price, or Store price. We were also well aware when a person was using us to gain the knowledge they needed to go buy online. It is fairly obvious. We would inform them of our Internet price match, and let them know the perks they would be forgoing. Most people ended up buying at store price, but many did buy at Internet, and again, would almost invariably come back looking for the free services we offered, trying to pull a fast one. No dice. I even had people come into my store with things they didnt even purchase from us and try to take advantage of the free services. On some occasions, there were people who argued with me on the topic, to whit: "You said you fix guns for free." Yeah, if you bought it from me for my retail price. "Well I bought this off XZY.com and you should fix it for me for free." I am not kidding.

NY and Cali have much larger populations, so even if % is lower, which it probably is, the raw number would be higher.

Legality of carrying concealed in condo association "common area"
I asked this same question, albeit open carry, to Nappen. Here is his response: I can not advise you to carry on "common areas." Although I would be happy to defend you, it is a gray area and you do not need to be the test case.

Gun Prices in NJ and the ridiculousness of putting up with it.
No offense, but these threads kill me. "I can buy it on the interwebs cheaper". No shit. Interwebs = no inventory, no overhead and no footprint in most cases. You order, they contact distributor, distributor ships to you and the site makes $20. AWESOME! You got a cheap item! The local shop has to keep inventory, a footprint, supplies, pay taxes, pay employees, give you advice, and make some money. You do know they opened their store to make money right? Well F them! I can save $50! Wahoo! Fast forward, and my $50 cheaper gun now needs to be worked on. No big deal, I will just swing by the LGS and have it fixed. Oh shit. They are out of business because of people like me. Now about that pesky trickle down economy where the money spent at a local store gets spent with a local carpenter who spends it at a local restaurant where the waitress spends it at the auto shop and the cash keeps flowing around. That extra $50 you spend will go a lot further in a local economy and probably will come back to you, when someone in the chain uses the services or product that you or the company you work for provides. The Interwebs guy is not coming to your hometown to hire you to fix his toilet, so buh bye money! Let a retail shop earn their money and support them. If you go in to a shop and pick their brains and finger bang their guns, have the decency to buy from them, or they won't be there when you need them and our "race to the bottom" economy will arrive at the bottom faster than you think, and you and your $50 cheaper gun will be sitting in the shit stew that was created.

James Kaleda arrested in PA for BS NJ "crime"
James was famously ejected from the hearings last year for being "out of order" when he was simply putting forth his opinion on a bill. Recently, he moved to PA to escape the NJ BS. He put in for a non resident FID. Apparently there was an error on the application and the NJSP issued a warrant for his arrest. This morning, the PA SP executed the warrant and James was arrested. Here is a link to his legal defense fund, which has the video of him being ejected from the hearings. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/james-kaleda-s-legal-defense-fund At this point, I have no additional info.

Bills begin to move to committee
1287 is very dated. Would be a good thing, but it has come up many times and never makes it past committee.

I want to say about .75% or so. It slides based on value of house. More the house is worth, the greater the tax rate.

Moving out of Jersey....
I just "exited" but the only tax I faced was a real estate transfer tax, which happens whenever you sell, not just leaving the state. Oh and Jersey City hits you for $125 for some reason, I forget now.

Moving out of Jersey....
My GF and I are somewhere upper middle class, each earning into the 6 figures. We are the type of taxpayer any state should want. We eat out a lot, spend money on leisure activities and hire people to do the stuff we don't want to (housekeeping, home repairs, auto maintenance, etc.). We generate a good deal of trickle down economy through all of these activities. But NJ has ensured that my income and spending will be elsewhere very shortly. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

.22 price
Haven't been there in the past couple weeks, but Heritage Guild in Branchburg has had a good supply and not bad pricing, like $30.

Moving out of Jersey....
I bought a place in PA last month. Doing a complete remodel and moving in in a couple weeks. 15 minutes into PA and I can feel the freedom. Living at Mother In Law's house for the past two weeks since I sold my NJ condo. That is fun. Can't wait to be in PA full time. Worked well for me, as I work in central NJ and I just flipped my commute.
