Well today was the day and I'm happy to say the safe has a nice new home in my basement. One of my friends built 2 small ramps to get the safe from the driveway to the patio. Once we got the safe on the industrial strength hand truck with the extra set of wheels for support, 5 of us pushed it up the ramps. After we got it on the patio we rolled it over to the bilco doors and had a sheet of plywood with a few 2x4s under it for some support and to raise it a little so we could get it over the lip of the door base. My other friend built a little ramp with 2x6s for the stairs going to the basement. We hammered a pipe into the ground as an anchor for the come along. Once we got the safe over the lip, we slowly lowered the safe to the basement. We were able to slide the hand truck and safe across the floor and into the final room. The hardest part at the end was moving the safe upright after we slid it off the hand truck. Thank God for great friends. No one got hurt and nothing was damaged.

I got an LNL last year for Christmas. I haven't had any issues so far with it. If you decide to go with the LNL, YouTube Bill Morgan. He does a great job on how everything works on it and what to look for when you need to adjust something.

We are bringing it through the storm doors stairs outside. Those stairs are concrete so those stairs should be good to go.

Happy to say the delivery to the house went well. The delivery guy had a large box truck. He was able to back the truck into the drive way, lower the safe to ground level and used the pallet jack to move it the 15-20 feet into the garage. I gave him $30 and a couple bottles of water. The fun begins in a couple of weeks when my soon to be former friends help me move it into the basement. I say former because they will never talk to me again after the move.

We are not in a flood zone so there's no worries about water from outside. We are diligent about keeping am eye on the water heater. Once we see signs it's going, we replace it.

One of the guys is an engineer and trust 100%. I must have measured 20 different ways and the engineer has a good idea how he wants to tackle this move. The room I want the safe has the tightest door way. Worst case scenario, I put it in the next room.

The driver was going to get a tip either way. If he helps me get it to the garage (with my help) I'll definitely give a better tip. I was undecided on what safe to get at first. I was looking at the Winchester ranger 30 and 51 gun safes. The price difference was about $350 and and about a 250lbs difference. My other safe some how got smaller (hate when that happens) and the 51 gun safe will definitely give me room to grow. I have 3 friends helping me in a few weeks to get it in the basement. 2 of them are big guys that lift weights and so hopefully the final spot will go smoothly.

I've been thinking the same thing about throwing the driver some extra cash to move it, but my paranoia has me thinking they will decline it and I'll have a safe on the curb until I can get friends over to help me.

I'm getting a safe delivered on Monday (can get it postponed until Wednesday) unfortunately the trucking company will only deliver it curbside. I asked the dispatcher if they are willing to bring into garage. The driveway is level and paved and he said that will not do that. Does anyone have idea on the best way to get from the street to the garage? The safe is 935 lbs and the garage is roughly about 60-75 feet from the curb. The final location is the basement, but I have friends that are going to assist me with that in a few weeks.

My last permit took 3 weeks. Definitely quicker than past times by about 2 weeks.

I've had people when I did IT support with the same issue. Try changing the channel bandwidth setting on the wifi card from 20mhz to auto. It's worked most of the time.

Garden State Armory let my wife handle firearms without her FID present.

Donated, we recently lost our 14 year old female cat to cancer. Praying for a good outcome.

Congratulations

I hope someone didn't just open the door because they didn't want it anymore, but unfortunately in this day you can't put it past anyone. Good luck with it. I had a few when I was younger. They are definitely smart and cool pets.

I've never had an issue with Saddle Brook. Most of the time I've received the call in 30 days or less to pick up my permits. The last P2P took 2 weeks.

After buying the Home Depot, Lowes and other grills and replacing then every couple of years, I took the plunge and purchased a Weber. That was 10 years ago and still have the same grill. The biggest selling point was replacement parts are actual OEM parts and not the generic parts you struggle to fit your other grill. Buy once, cry once. You wouldn't regret buying a Weber.

Outgrew mine. Currently looking for a bigger one. Still isn't stopping me from buying more guns. Until then, I'll get get creative with the space I have.

So sorry for your loss

I've had a buckmark as well for about 20 years. Definitely a great pistol and highly suggest it to anyone.

former rider here. If you are going to get the bike for leisure/weekend riding, go for it and be safe. I personally wouldn't get one to commute with during regular rush hour. Too many distracted drivers and not worth the risk in NJ.

I used the new form as well. Submitted the form and paperwork on March 31st and got the call on Wednesday for pickup. Definitely quicker this time. Hopefully it stays this way.

I was there earlier today. There were some guys still working on the backstop for the 50 yard. As was mentioned earlier, it looks like it was back end improvements to keep the range in great working order. Anthony and the gang do a great job making sure shooters (novice and experienced) have a great time at the range.

Still laughing....these were good.

My wife and I were at GSA for the first time back in January. I went there to pick up a few pounds of powder and the wife found a 15-22 she fell in love with and had to buy. The guys behind the counter were very friendly. I highly recommend you take a ride there.
