I would love to know what idiot made the actual decision for a lockdown based on these facts. Kid walks in wearing military camo, asks the maintenance guy he encounters if the counselor he's looking for is in yet, told he/she is not in and leaves. Being that he works on base I'd even bet every encounter probably consisted of a Sir/Please/Thank You. Unbelievable!

There's a thread related to the rally and looks like a few are going, including myself. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/51180-nj2as-rally-on-tue-319-in-kenilworth-nj/page__hl__nj2as__fromsearch__1

Updated info....

^^^ Well played sir.

Just checking... More power to you then.

I see nothing wrong with the letter.. Did your friend happen to list you as a reference? My only concern would be this may open him up to some additional unwanted scrutiny but way to fight the good fight.

Without any more info I'm assuming the form in question is the NICS check and the shop is probably just hedging there bets and setting the expectation out at 2 weeks. Just my guess based on current info

Looking forward to attending. I'm just a few blocks up the street so no excuses. See you all there.

5Gs in Cash that uncle same doesnt need to know about AND easy access to cheap ammo? I don't know you but kind of hate you right now

Cool.. Thanks guys!! When I say new I mean new, 1 9mm (M&P 9) and 2 mags so not sure what the stages require, round count wise, but I'll have evetything with me for sure. Hopefully I can make it. Thanks again.

Anyone know if it's cool for someone (myself) to come and watch or do you need to be member/guest? I'm a new shooter so not ready to take part but would like to see what one of these events is like. If the weather holds out I might even be able to show up ealry and lend a hand with set up if needed.

Welcome from another new shooter... To add to freejerseys's response, you can purchase from out of state/online but it must be transfered to a NJ FFL dealer. I ordered my M&P online and had it shipped to one of the forum vendors. Great experience and supper easy.

Congrats... it's amazing how you'll just happen to be cleaning your gun collection every time a male suitor stops by

Congrats on gettin her done... Should be a fun shooter.

Times to issue seem to be all over the map these days. I'm pretty sure there are a few other Parsippany residents on the boards so you might get some first hand experience. That said they just dealt with NJ2AS for using unapproved forms (http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/49741-8-more-towns-agree-to-comply-with-state-firearms-law/page__pid__655054#entry655054) so maybe they'll be leery of another smack down and get them out in a decent time. I agree with DSD1206, different last name and you're probably ok. Same name not a great idea.

The more thought I give to this topic the more I think if I intend to use a weapon for home defense it needs to be accessible and ready to act in under 10-15 seconds. As much as I want to think ill have the time to get to my safe, punch in the code, grab the gun, and present it before someone can kick in my door and run up my steps just seems unrealistic. I'm leaning towards the idea of one of those quick disconnects kits for my holster and then I can mount the holster to my bedside at night and just throw it in the safe before leaving for work in the morning. i tend to open my safe every morning to get my watch or cash anyway so not really an inconvenience.

I second the dishwasher idea!

I'm just surprised Norton is capable of blocking something... who knew!

I've been wondering the same thing as I look through the WTS threads. I've had my pistol for just over a month now and already have 400 rounds through it. I have to think the stuff people are selling with low round counts are just 1 of 15+ guns they have or they buy/sell to sample whats out there. I cant wait to have a collection like that.

I just submitted my change of address paperwork Friday afternoon and as dtown223 suggested its a perfect opportunity for a few new P2P. I didn't even give the local PD a chance to ask for my existing FID, knew what I needed and handed then a folder with the paperwork. Since the DMV change is just a sticker on the back of my license I doubt anyone will even notice it if I buy ammo with my current FID and license in the interim. If you're concerned about the PD asking for your current card when you put in the paperwork Id say it sure would suck if it were "lost during the move".

I just recently got my FID and permit and only paid for those same things you did. No additional $18 money order so I think you're good.

I will never understand why people feel the need to reply to posts in a condescending manner. If you do not have any valuable insight to offer the OP on his specifc query why even comment on the thread? and telling someone to search because this has been posted before seems like it may be better left to the mods/admins as they may be able to do it in a less patronizing manner. Isnt that the purpose of this community? I know as a new member here I've gotten a lot out of reading the posts/questions of other newbies. To the OPs original question. IMNAL but I would agree you are within the letter of the law by going to/from the different ranges with both firearms as long as they are being transported in accordance with the guidlelines.

Hi Alex.... Welcome! I was in the same boat a couple weeks ago and after sooting a few of the same choices I went with the M&P 9 (Just felt best for my hand). Looks like Hagues by you has all of those options in there rental inventory. http://www.haguesgunrange.com/rentals.htm Thier range and rental fees are a little high compared to some of the other's ive seen but you'd have a chance to shoot some of your options. ($30 for the lane $30 rental). Then again I wouldnt be suprised if you get some invites from some other forum members in the area to meet up and shoot some of thiers. Good Luck

Found this video of Evan Nappan lecturing at an NJ2AS meeting. He covers this topic at around min 20:00. Worth a look if you have a few minutes. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=DvFp8uCMgDo&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DDvFp8uCMgDo

I have one and unless the majority of your media is in iTunes or acquired through iTunes I would suggest looking at the Roku instead (I have both). Roku has Amazon Instant video as well as HBO GO and lots of others. You can also stream movies/audio to it from a PC or flash drive if you get the Roku XS Happy to answer any other questions
