Ruger LCR in 38 Spl +P or .357 Magnum
I have a LCR 38+P that I carry almost every day and I love it. At one time or another I've carried a Glock 26, Sig 239, and Kahr PM9. The LCR is by far the lightest, most comfortable to carry, and easiest to conceal. The down side is the reduced round capacity and when shooting +P loads she's snotty little bitch (not unmanageable but defiantly not a target gun). I imagine a 357 would only be worse.

Kinda Got the Pistol Caliber Carbine Bug
Lone Wolf makes a 9mm upper and a lower that uses Glock mags. Olympic Arms also makes an AR that uses Glock mags. I'm not sure if either are NJ compliant but I'm sure you could find someone who could make any needed modifications.

Holsters
The store with the most holsters that I've ever seen in NJ is lawman's Supply in Pennsauken but that mat be a little far for you. Try looking on e-bay. There are literally thousands of different options but, If you want to go to a shop try Atlantic Tactical in Somerset. They have a decent amount of holsters in the store.

New 9 mm
I'm in Manchester. When I moved here 13 yrs ago it took 9 months just for an address change. Since then I've never had a p2p approved in less than 6 months. The word I got was that the old police chief would sit on p2p apps because he didn't like the idea of civilians owning guns and thought only his cops should have guns. He just retired and we got a new chief about a month ago. I'm hoping maybe she will change things and I'll have better luck getting a permit in a reasonable time frame........................................................I can only hope. ,.

New 9 mm
dajonga' Thanks, but I don't have a p2p yet and in my town it could take over 6 months. I'm really just looking for some ideas. I'm not really a big fan of Shore Shot either, I cant wait for the guys that bought Brick Armory to open. Everything I see about them is positive.

New 9 mm
I was cleaning a few guns today after a trip to the range and after looking into the safe I'm starting to get the feeling that I need a new pistol in 9 mm. I would love to pick up a Hi-Power but that may be a little over budget. I think right now the CZ 75 is in first place. Any other suggestions?

Home defense shotgun
I would go with the 870. It's a proven platform and there are thousands of accessories readily available from every vendor.

Lead Furance
Is there any place where you can buy a lead furnace (melter) in the Ocean co area?

What CCW Would You Choose?
I think size and weight have to taken into consideration. I used to carry a Glock 23 but stopped because after a while it just got to be to heavy, and in summer months with shorts and t-shirts to hard to hide.

Potnetial Ban on .223 (M855) Ammo?
Dose anyone know how a ban will affect us if goes through? I can't find a thread on this yet.
-
What CCW Would You Choose?
Both good choices, but I think the H&K would get heavy after a while and would be a little harder to conceal. Also, I would like to hear why anyone who responds chose the gun they did.

What CCW Would You Choose?
What gun would you choose as an every day carry gun? I'm not talking about an I'm going to war gun. I'm talking, I'm going for milk. I think a small frame revolver such as the Ruger LCR or S&W Bodyguard would be best. It will never jam, you never have to worry about a safety, and if it doesn't go bang just pull the trigger again

Tristar Shotguns
Dose anyone know anything about Tristar shotguns? They're definitely cheaper than other shotguns with similar features but are they any good?

Sons of Liberty
What a piece of crap! So far it's been a 4 hour commercial for Sam Adams beer that is loosely based on history.

Pistol permit
Your lucky, my town usually takes 6 to 8 months. When I first moved here 13 yrs ago it took 9 months just for an address change on my ID card.

Buyer Beware
I got a fax from the service department today. The sent some kind of service history summary. It says they brought it back for an alignment, oil change, and to replace a PCV value. All things that were already checked and or replaced 2 days earlier according to the CPO checklist. I have no faith in anything they say at this point. I told Acura Corporate that the only acceptable out come is to have the CPO inspection redone by another Acura dealer at Acura of Oceans expense and to have my free oil changes transferred as well. Not holding my breath on that but F it se what they say. If they don't go for that I'll demand a refund.

What was your least favorite gun purchase?
Hi-Point 995 TS. I couldn't get used to the charging handle on the left side of the gun

Buyer Beware
Yes, got The CPO checklist before it went back

Buyer Beware
I don't think there would be much the police could do in case like this. The only real documentation I have is the copy of the CPO check list. I was told that any time a car is serviced at a dealer the vin # should be entered into a data base.

Buyer Beware
Unfortunately, I already bought from them. The car I bought was supposed to be a certified pre-owned. The day after I got it the salesman called and said that I needed to bring the car back ASAP to "service a few things that were over looked". When I asked what these things were he could not give me an answer. I brought the car back and was given a loaner for the night. He told that he would call me in the morning and tell me why it had to come back. Surprise! No call. When I called him he still didn't know why it had to come back but, said everything was done. I said, Really? you know that everything is done but you don't know what they did? No answer. That night I was looking over the paperwork from the sale a noticed that there were several discrepancies on the certified pre-owned check list. Several things that were checked as completed were not and some options that the car doesn't even have were checked as in good working condition. When I went in to pick up the car they couldn't find it and there was no record in the system that it was even there. I asked for a manager and he through some divine knowledge knew exactly where it was but refused to give me any copies of the work orders or explanation of the work that had been done. when I pointed out the discrepancies on the CPO check list he said " I don't know what to tell you". At that point I had to walk out because if I stayed any longer I would be writing this from a jail cell. Today I filed a complaint with Acura's corporate HQ. Still waiting to hear from them and I still have no idea what work was or was not done or even if the CPO inspection was actually done. I guess I should have gotten a Lexus.

Buyer Beware
If you are in the market for a car, do yourself a favor and stay away from Ocean Acura (Rt 35 Ocean NJ, Monmouth Co). Very shady sales practices and horrible customer service.

Basking Ridge trip.
I don't know how your coming up but, if your coming through Monmouth County you could try Cream Ridge Winery. They have some pretty interesting fruit wines. A few miles down the road is laurita Winery. Their wines are pretty good and the store is a huge log cabin overlooking the vineyard. I think both are in Plumbstead Twp.

Washer/Dryer Repair
Go on youtube. I replaced the igniter on my dryer and the pump motor on my dishwasher by watching youtube videos for only the cost of the parts. If you have to use a repair guy, try the guy on Main St Toms River across from the Office lounge (can't remember the name) . I've never used him for repairs but, I did buy parts from him and he was more than happy to give me pointers on how to do the job. Seems like a good guy.
