fixed that for ya. So now I can carry if I go there on vacation? Nice!

I am an atheist, but I could care less if the letter said god given right or natural right. I also don't care if out money says "In God We Trust" and I have no problems saying the word in the Pledge of Allegiance. There is no need for metaphysical discussion of who created what and gave rights how. I don't need a magical character or a fictional book describing the explits of said character telling me I have the right to protect myself. Its a simple physiological response to a stimuli. In this case, the aggression of another animal be it bipedal or not. Should I choose to fight and not flee, I want to have the best tools needed to win the fight. In most case, that would be a firearm. Therefore, I have the right to carry a pistol on me if I choose to do so. The fact that asshole elected officials feel that I am not worthy of self preservation is disgusting. Their hypocrisy of carrying firearms themselves should be cause of public shaming if not worse.

They all have blood on their hands. The articles should have all read "Felon Killed by ex girlfriend he tried to murder" but alas we morn the death of an innocent woman. We need to take a note from the liberal playbook and not let a good tragedy go to waste. We need to organize and press Christy. Pressing the legislature is useless. If the fat man wants any chance at the White House he needs to redefine Justifiable Need to include self defence.

The wife is going back to school in September. Once she is done, and once we save up with us both working again we are selling the condo and blowing this popsicle stand! Not sure where yet. I just got back from Atlanta, Georgia is nice lol. More than likely it will be VA, PA it NC. Who knows. As long as it's no longer Nj. Only thing that upsets me, is most of the better places to live are so damn hot!

Just checked my bag and the girl at the counter didn't even batt an eye. Handed me a red tag, asked me to sign and place the tag on the case in my suitcase. Done. Couldn't be easier.

Of all the things wrong with this state, having someone else pump my gas for me is not on my priority list. Who cares? I'll gladly sit in my car with the AC/Heat on during the summer/winter and let them sit out in the heat/cold and pump my gas.

Going to Atlanta, AIA convention.

No one? Really? No one ever traveled through Trenton with a firearm?

I've flown from Newark countless times so I know the set up there. On Tuesday night I am flying from Trenton and have never done so. I will be traveling to a free state and will be checking in a pistol. Having never been there, is the setup similar to Newark just mush more scaled down or is it something totally different? Can I check it in at the ticket counter as in EWR or do I have to go somewhere else? Just trying to save headaches and time. Thanks for the advice in advance!

As others have said, I would be very interested to see if you will not be denied for a P2P. I think a lot of people are apprehensive of following in your footsteps because of fear of being denied for an FID or P2P. I think if we find out that a P2P is still attainable, post CCW Permit Denial, it would go a long way in getting people to apply in protest.

U'r a jerk! By the way, I designed the remodel of the Woodlands Mall. The addition as well as the remodel of the old Sears tire building into the Noodles Co/Tylers and what not. I loved going there for construction meeting with other people from my NYC office. They were so freaked out when I would check my luggage in Newark and declare a handgun so I could carry when we landed in Tx lol.

Just a dog and pony show. Nothing more, nothing less. Some adviser told him that this may me dragging his national approval rating down and he remedies the problem.

Well... That sucks. I honestly thought we had a chance with this one. It would take a couple of years to make its way to SCOTUS but I thought there was a chance. Damn.

A friend of mine will be having a car show April 11th in Dayton. http://ls1tech.com/forums/eastern-members/1775428-alcc-gm-meet-car-show-saturday-april-11th.html Mostly modern muscle cars, but some older cars usually show up. Not sure if I will get my car back up by then, broke my torque arm last December at Atco and this winter has just been way too cold to lay on the concrete slab in the garage and fix it. Need a new driveshaft as well.

I will gladly be part of a mass application stampede. Unfortunately I have a previous engagement on Saturday. I'll let you guys work out the details, I already have the application filled out. :-D

AimSurplus no longer ships AR Lowers to NJ. Sucks... I bought a few from them before this change. Not sure when it went into effect.

The more ranges the better. Site plan approval can take a long time, especially if there are environmental concerns like wetlands or a change in use. If you find Bog Turtles... forget it! Do you guys have an Architect on board already? If not, let me know ;-) Can't beat having a gun owning Architect to design a range lol

I fully agree, but the ranges I have seen that do this "competency test" charge you for it. I would love for it to me just a test. If you fail, then I can understand the need for the fee/class. I think the lack of training done by the average LEO makes it more likely for an ND than a trained citizen. As you said, nothing against LEO's but the last couple of times at the range I noticed 2 LEOs shooting an FBI Q Target that looked like it was hit with bird shot and not a 9mm pistol. But they can draw and carry... makes sense to me! I prefer timed drills that require drawing. I feel that my accuracy and speed improve more with live fire. Its kinda hard to do the F.A.S.T. drill with dummy ammo or an empty gun. Yes, you can practice drawing with an empty gun, but even with a SIRT pistol I find life fire a better training tool for practicing first round hits from the holster.

filled out

I noticed this policy at a couple ranges. Never understood the thinking behind it. I think if you can demonstrate your ability to safely draw and place rounds on paper within whatever "testing" framework the range establishes you should be allowed to draw from a holster. I find it better to have a holstered pistol at the range. That way its always with me, not on a shelf taking up space. Maybe the fear is that many LEOs will fail and get pissed off lol. Dry fire practice is good, but its not a replacement for live fire, even when practicing drawing.

If you get a 600y (min) range going, I'll join for sure.

Totally agree with you, but as stated above, any pinned stock can be made adjustable again by drilling out the pin, ie: using tools Using logic is very dangerous in NJ, but I figured if pinning is okay, needing a allan key or wrench to increase length is okay as well. Dangerous assumption I know. That is why I don't expect anyone to take my word as gospel. Just my opinion.

I specify Mitsubishi whenever I have a project that requires a split system. Simple reason, they work. I do commercial work and have never had a client complain about a Mitsubishi CityMulti.

JT. The way I see the pic it looks like the stock is in combination with an AR receiver extension, castle nut and all. Looks like you can adjust the length, comb height, height and angle of butt plate. Interesting. It is adjustable but requires tools. I am far from an expert but I would think this is okay for a Semi Auto AR. But I can't be sure.

Seeing as how I said "all the ranges I HAVE BEEN TO" yes, I do want to go with a blanket statement like that. :-)
