Person to person hand gun.
^^^^Most likely true. Although the actual form says in red next to where the seller enters their address "(Must reside in New Jersey). I am not a lawyer and don't play one on TV but residing I believe is different from being a legal resident. The form also says where the seller may enter their SSN "(Disclosure of SSN is voluntary).

Doctors need to be banned!
I read this on a comment about a news story where a doctor's negligence caused some problems and found it both interesting and funny: THIS IS TERRIBLE.... Doctors (A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000. (B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000. © Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171 Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Now think about this: Guns (A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. (Yes, that's 80 million) (B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500. © The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188 Statistics courtesy of FBI >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> So, statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.' >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT Almost everyone has at least one doctor. This means you are over 9,000 times more likely to be killed by a doctor as by a gun owner!!! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!!!!! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Out of concern for the public at large, I withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention!

Thanks guys. Here is one more zoomed in shot:

Psych Exam if caught "Carrying???"
You missed my point, I am not saying cops should have to take psyc exams. I am saying I hope they pass something stupid with unintended consequences so they look like asses and have to change the law.

A pot of Gold
Thanks, not mine; it's the house across the street. Mine is very different but I think it is nice.

Psych Exam if caught "Carrying???"
I think the concept was that if someone is caught carrying a gun (without a permit) that something must be mentally wrong with the person and they want the ability to require a mental evaluation which currently is not required by law. At least that is my take on this strange story.

Psych Exam if caught "Carrying???"
Hope they pass the law and screw it up so they have to give each and every cop in the state a psyc exam

A pot of Gold
Come on, you were out on the boat without a cell phone I almost never see these when I have a camera. Actually there was a double one to the left side of the house but I only got one shot of it:

Going out right now to find the pot of gold, even if I have to dig up the neighbor's house

Range membership - Cheery Ridge vs RTSP
You are comparing apples to oranges. If you really want to mix it up why not consider places like Shongum Sportsmen's association, Old Bridge Rifle & Pistol which have both outdoor and indoor facilities. If you want just indoor pistol then RTSP is your best bet, but if you want rifle outdoors also you should consider the two I just mentioned.

Went "shooting" this morning
Cool shot! Maybe I'll come some other time, have an IDPA match Sunday.

Went "shooting" this morning
Thanks. I only once took the camera to the range, and that was before I started shooting USPSA or IDPA. I don't think I got any bullets but I did get quite a few with shell cases being ejected and in mid flight. One day I really need to take a good camera to a match again.

Went "shooting" this morning
Thanks. Nothing special. These were taken with my old Nikon D300 using the prosumer Nikon 28-300VR lens. I believe they were all taken at close to 300mm at 1/320th and f/9.

- IPDA at RTSP?
Well that should be interesting. Since it is IDPA AND concealment is REQUIRED, does that mean all the rifle shooters will be wearing trench coats ????- IPDA at RTSP?
Due to scheduling conflicts matches put off till at least the fall. There is a good IDPA match at Old Bridge this Sunday that still has room.- 2 shot, in serious condition at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel
Yea I hear it along with Newark, Trenton, Camden, Paterson, Irvington and a couple of other nice locations have also been added as exempt locations if you are a resident and have at least one felony conviction to your name- 2 shot, in serious condition at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel
I call BS, there is no way this could possibly happen in NJ - the media is making up the story. Are you seriously trying to tell me that the gun did not see the GunFree Zone sign and immediately decide to stay away? Also since it is totally illegal to carry a gun in New Jermany unless you are one of roughly 1,800 connected private citizens it would be illegal and we all know criminals obey all laws - that is why we have them. So, there is no way this really happened. But I guess we need to ban concerts and public assembly now, let's get to work on passing more laws!!!!- Traveling with 15-20 handguns
Be careful and know the laws in each and every state you drive through. I have a friend who was arrested in NY a few years ago because he had three long guns in his trunk. The way he explained it to me there is (or was) some law in NY that more than two represents an arsenal. He ultimately won as it was ruled an illegal search, but if it had been legal he might still be in jail.- Is it safe to clean my internals with Brakleen pro-grade parts cleaner?
Don't see anything wrong with it. I have used brake cleaner to clean out the firing pin channel in my CZ75 and it works very well.- Any Shongum members on here?
No, match was cancelled due to a death in the family of the MD.- Any Shongum members on here?
I find it very nice that during the week the place is typically empty. I can go out to the outdoor pistol pit and set up a bunch of targets and never see another person. The indoor range was just recently redone and is fairly nice. Whether it is worth it for you is hard to say. Why do you only go to the range 4 times a year? Do you want to shoot more? Only you can answer these questions and decide what is right for you.- GunVault Biometric Safes - How Secure?
+1, some of those videos were of early models that had faults, I think they are made much better today. The one I have let's you program 32 fingers (I don't have that many) so I have programmed several in various different positions on the sensor. I have never had it fail to open with one of my registered fingers, and it does not open with unregistered ones. I have a Baraska which beside the biometric has a numeric keypad you can also use and a key backup. As I said before I consider these locking containers designed principally to keep otherwise honest people honest.- GunVault Biometric Safes - How Secure?
- Greetings from Morris County (Parsippany)
Welcome from a few towns over in Randolph. I agree with the above, as a friend there just got his recently after waiting over 9 months! Parsippany isn't driver friendly either, the cops there are used for massive revenue generation. Watch yourself on RT80 where they patrol as well as RT10 and other roads. - IPDA at RTSP?
