I wonder whether a rifle & pistol club could bulk buy ammo direct from manufacturers for its members at cost? Appropriate licenses and permits & secure storage would be required. This would be a good member benefit given the current situation.

Guess its happening again...

Sonic booms over Freehold yesterday & today - windows rattling

Do any NJ Rifle & Pistol Clubs do bulk buys of ammo for their members at cost?

Where can I find the vote counts for each bill?

Agree completely

As far as mag caps are concerned, I'm trying to think of an angle that would appeal to intelligence and common sense in a letter to Christie. Maybe something like: "NJ already has a 15 round cap limit, far more restrictive than 90% of US states. There is no research whatsoever that shows a decrease in gun-related crime at a 15 round mag capacity, so how would a 10 round mag capacity help? What would a decrease to 10 rounds accomplish other than criminalizing current law-abiding gun owners? Many rifles and pistols legitimately used in target sports and hunting have standard mag capacities exceeding 10 rounds. Don't punish law-abiding gun owners, hunters and target sports enthusiasts for the acts of criminals."

They will wait until later when fewer observers are around

Not only rejected - my FFL was told that I could get investigated by the state police for submitting another NICS before 30 days were up.

Got it approved yesterday (3 days wait). I'm now waiting for more permits so I can get the other pistols I ordered. I spent a year in Texas about 15 years ago - it seems like a different country compared to NJ.

The NRA needs to hire a NJ-based lobbyist with inside legislative contacts to work behind the scenes ASAP. That's what professional organizations for teachers, cops & docs do. Just sayin

Maybe find some pro-gun big bottom gals to win him over

Come to think of it, I still need to get something for my wife...

I asked my FFL to do my NICS check 4 days ago so I could pick up my pistol. As of today, the NICS check is still not back and he told me that the wait was now 2 to 4 days. He also told me that tonight was his wife's birthday and tomorrow was Valentine's day so I could not get my pistol until Friday. My problem is that I'm leaving for Florida first thing Friday morning. How long is a NICS check good for until it expires.

I've ordered a lot from them. They may be slow, but their prices are fair. They never charge your card until they ship.

A DHS security force has less oversight and fewer restrictions compared to using military. Deployment could be used against anyone labeled a domestic terrorist. DHS might even have access to drones.

Fed Govt can't use military against US citizens within US territory and doesn't want to rely on National Guard units if state governments oppose feds. That's where DHS comes in - a domestic federal armed force. Welcome to the new order.

Here's info on the Monmouth public hearing on 2/6: Dear Mr. D, Thank you for your recent email regarding gun rights. I understand your concerns. A comprehensive look is needed at our society to see why such tragic incidents like the Newtown shooting occur. That includes a look at mental health and violent video games and movies. I agree we can also improve the quality of background checks. Governor Christie just announced the creation of the NJ SAFE Task Force. The panel is made up of a cross section of the community, including James Romer from Monmouth Medical Center. He has 30 years experience in the mental health field. The Task Force will hold a public hearing in Monmouth County on February 6, from 3 p.m. - 5 p.m., at Brookdale Community College in Lincroft. Perhaps you would like to attend if your schedule permits. The Task Force has 60 days to report back to the Governor and I anxiously await its findings. Once again, thank you for reaching out to me with your concerns. Very Truly Yours, Assemblywoman Caroline Casagrande 11th Legislative District

Events are not yet posted on the site calendar. I'm planning on joining OBRPC next Sunday - hope the new member orientation is still on.

Did this in January - great deal.

February 4, 2013 Dear Friend: Thank you for writing to express your opposition to new laws regarding gun control. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue. Acting on my commitment to take a full and comprehensive look at the intersection of gun control, addiction, mental health and school safety in New Jersey, I have created the NJ SAFE Task Force. The Task Force will be chaired by two former attorneys general of New Jersey and members who have expertise in the fields of mental health diagnosis and treatment, addiction services and treatment, law enforcement and school safety. Violence in our society has never been solely about firearms, and we would miss an opportunity to better prevent the roots of violence if we didn't look at the complete picture. If we are truly going to take an honest and candid assessment of violence and public safety, we have to look more deeply at the underlying causes of many acts of violence. That means removing the stigma and evaluating issues of mental health, addiction, prevention and treatment services alongside the effectiveness of our firearms laws, enforcement mechanisms and our school safety measures. This task force will convene immediately and report back with its findings. My commitment has always been to evaluate public safety, criminal policy and behavioral science with an approach that recognizes that these issues cannot be separated from one another. The SAFE Task Force will further my commitment in that regard as we look at how we can better guarantee violence control. I hope you find this information helpful. Thank you again for writing. Sincerely, Chris Christie Governor
