RTSP - Customer Service Concerns
I've been a member at RTSP for almost a year now and I've only had positive experiences there. My only complaint would be that even with a membership you experience a 20-30 minute wait time after 5pm, but that should be addressed once they open the additional planned ports. Every staff member I've dealt with has been great and I feel they genuinely do try to be as helpful as possible. I've witnessed their extreme patience dealing with people who are obviously very new shooters so I guess you just caught them on really bad days or talked to someone I've never dealt with. And I've seen the chick that was dipping before, but not in months. I have to admit that when I saw her spit dip into that cup of hers I was kind of like wtf? Not something I'd expect at any retail business even if it is a gun shop. Will I renew my membership? I'm not sure, but that's no fault of RTSP. The membership has probably paid for itself just in ammo costs (before I was buying online) and visits, but I don't know if shooting 1-2 times a month warrants a membership anywhere. I will be stopping by in the next few days to purchase a new handgun and I'm sure they'll be as helpful as always.

In NJ can you hold an intruder at gunpoint until LE arrive?
well that raises an interesting question... can you tase someone in your house in this pos state?

In NJ can you hold an intruder at gunpoint until LE arrive?
This is by far the best course of action if you can lock yourself in a room with a firearm. Call 911 and if the door to the room you're hiding in gets kicked in then you start blasting. No one here is superman... don't wander around your house without knowing the exact situation. Multiple intruders in different directions could get you dead.

Trouble with Palmetto State Armory?
I'm in the same boat as you. Ordered back in February and they requested my FID via e-mail which I promptly sent over. Order is still "processing", but I'm being patient and will give them till the end of next week before I start harassing them as it clearly states to give them 15 business days right now.

NJ NICS
That really sucks. I'd say it's gotta be the state if your FFL has 3 separate receipts. You're just getting really unlucky

9MM SGAMMO
Right now if you can get 9mm for .30/round and .45 for .40-45/round you've got a good deal and should jump all over it. I've managed to get 2500 rounds of 9mm at around .30 per round within the past few weeks. You guys will get some just gotta stay all over it and jump on it when it comes up.

Looking to get a Walther PPQ or PPX
I just got a PPQ m2 in 9mm and put 300 rounds through it the other day without a hiccup. The gun shoots very nicely and the trigger is fantastic. However, the recoil doesn't feel very different from my p229 .40 cal (probably because of the weight) so it's definitely not the softest shooting 9mm out there. The grip feels very good in your hand and like everyone else said the p30 is kind of a different animal being hammer fired. As far as ergonomics go they're very similar so if you have access to one or the other and it fits you well chances are the other one will as well. I got steered towards the PPQ because I was checking out the P30 in my LGS and loved the way it felt. I wasn't a big fan of the paddle release so the PPQ m2 actually appeals to me much more. And I can tell you from experience the mag release is positioned VERY nicely to the point where I don't have to adjust my grip at all to drop a mag. Can't say the same for my sig. With both guns you're going to run into the same issues like hard to find accessories, expensive magazines, ect. If you're looking for something with widely available parts and toys you might be better served with a S&W, XD, or Glock.
