My past 2 NICS calls were received around 1:00-2:00 timeframe during the week. I think that was more from the LGS calling buyers in batch to pickup. NICS is open until 5 today, so there is a good possibility today you might get the call. Great pick for a first gun. Good Luck with it and welcome to the 2A family.

I would spend the extra $$ and go with a .357 mag. My wife shoot .38s from it and I get to shot my 357 mags.

Congratulations :-)

I know there is nothing illegal having loaded magazines stored during transport, but will the LEO interpret the law the same way? How many stories have we seen where the person was arrested only to have the charges dropped after all the bs. Your fun day at the range, just turned into a fun day at the PD.

+1

This assembly guy is an idiot. I really hope and pray pro 2A wins this fight.

I keep the copies in the safe with the guns.

I would spend the extra 5 minutes at the range to load the magazines instead of giving a LEO reason to detain you. Just my .02 and no,I have nothing against LEOs

Emails have been sent. Faxes are coming next.

Plain and simple like the old saying goes, you can't make everyone happy. People will always **** about something. Anthony and the group put together a 1st class range and a lot of extras. Instead of complaining about the price, traffic or something else, we should give them a round of applause for giving us another place to shoot. Now more then ever, we should help each other out. Whether it's going to a new range to help them get a little extra cash flow or a different LGS to buy a box of ammo or cleaning supplies. Lets show the antis that we stick together :-)

Both of mine are good friends and fellow gun owners. I asked them for a reference and the reason why. They called me the same day they received my letters from PD to tell me they completed the letters and were already in the mail.

I have a 500 S&W and if the senate passes the same bill the assembly pushed through, yes I will be impacted from my understanding of the bill. I'm really trying to understand the mindset either house is using to create and pass these bills.

I can't wait to go this weekend. I hope there is no line at when the doors open on Saturday.

I would say the application was never submitted into the system, so technically it was not refused. That's just my .02

My FFL told me online NICS should be up and running around June timeframe.

Guess it's time for Obama's media machine to start embellishing the facts to suit their needs for more gun control.

My last check took 11 days. I will pray to the firearm gods you get the call Monday :-)

1. To protect my family 2. I like to shoot with friends and family 3. The last and most important BECAUSE IT'S MY RIGHT given to me by the 2nd Amendment.

I had some 15 year old primers myself and was concerned. I loaded one for a test and sure enough, it popped. Unless you soaked them in oil the past 20 years, you should be fine.

Yes,there is a person/people in the pits to raise/lower the targets as needed.

I guess the best piece of advice I can give you is are you willing to bet your firearms on it should the cops get involved and they find out this was not a legal transfer? Friend or family I'm not willing to lose mine over a favor.

Unless it's a brother from the same mother, I would still do a COE and legal transfer. That will cover everyones butt should the drama get worse. Once the drama has finished, and he has his FID, you can transfer it back to him. I can't tell you how many stories I've heard though out the years where it starts with "I was just trying to help a friend" and the person trying to help gets screwed. Let me clarify by saying I don't think your friend will do anything to cause a problem for you, but the other half might.

Wow, 30 days is nothing compared to some of the times I see posted. We can only pray and wish NJ did something to fix NICS. As of Monday the magic number I heard was NJSP was 3,000 NICS behind. I can only see that number increasing for the next few months as first timers get their paperwork approved and issued.

Congratulations!!! That was my first firearm. After 20 years it's still my favorite one and shoots like a champ.

I only ordered a handful of times before December. Now they changed their policies, never shopping there again.
