  1. My niece's fiance took the exam around 2 years ago. He just started training at Sea Girt about a month ago.
  2. Accord coupe V6. the Infiniti is nice, but not sure you'd get close to price point, plus it's premium gas.
  3. Maggie's a fine dog, great disposition. She even licked my hand!
  4. If I ever get to make my first purchase (Beretta 96A1), my 2nd permit is for a GP100 (686s out of my range). This could get pricey, shoulda never went to that Starbucks meet.
  5. Submitted FPID and 2 P2Ps aplications on 2/21 with Hamilton Twp. PD Fingerprinted 3/4 Michelle from Ham. PD called today to pick everything up. Initially told it would take 5 months from what they were seeing, she was kind of surprised it didn't take longer. Next step, first purchase!
  6. It probably should go without saying, but I hope that we all frequently remember, and pray, for our servicemen and women, especially for those and their families who have given all. Thank you for our freedoms.
  7. I can see the need to remove "to protect" from a legal liability point of view. Might be stretching it a bit, but if someone walks across the turnpike at 3 am and the inevitable happens, I could see someone saying "where were the troopers, aren't they supposed to patrol the roadway".
  8. Millsan, Very concise rebuttal, plenty of facts and common sense.
  9. Silent patriot, I agree, a dollar should be deducted for each day longer, As a matter of fact, people should be reimbursed a dollar a day for each day over the fee amount. And see, not a mention of politics. Almost 3 months and waiting...
  10. Although I'm more confused now than before reading the law, it seems to me like an unacceptable deviation. The question may become moot once the NJ legislature bans drive-thrus and unhealthy food. Even though I have a feeling Mr. Christie might veto that one.
  11. So they got 52 more in Jan. '13. If you figure 20 business days=2.6 more applications they had to do each day. Man , they were swamped! No time for 2 hr. coffee breaks.
  12. Like I said before, there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the wait times. I understand some towns are more populous than others, but I can't imagine everyone in town is rushing to apply for fpids and p2ps all at once. According to members on this forum, some are taking 6-8 weeks, while others are in excess of 6 months. I suspect the hold ups are more at the local levels than the big, bad Trenton/federal level. It almost seems like some places are purposely dragging their feet. After over 2 1/2 months one of my references was finally contacted by phone by local pd. Do I see some light at the end of the tunnel?
  13. My best friend (unfortunately a liberal lawyer) has lived in CA for the past 30+ years. He said you can get mmj very easily if you know the right (wrong) doctor, etc.
  14. Seems to me that many of his recent actions point to him signing off on whatever he's sent.
  15. My local gun shop dealers cupboards are bare!
  16. It hurt to see Cervelli go down. I live in a house divided, Yanks and Mets fans.It was brutal here during the 2000 WS.
  17. Probably not relevant, but might have been using the gym facilities and had it in a locker. Still, not too bright to be separated from it.
  18. Percentage against is encouraging, even though still a relatively small sample.I think the question is purposefully vague by not having a number that they feel constitutes "high capacity".
  19. Why not get an extension from your local PD? This way you'll have more time/options.
  20. Maksim, I would venture to guess no regarding your question, and let's face it, NJ hasn't had a conservative candidate for nearly anything in close to 20 yrs. (I do like Chris Smith though). In my 39 yrs.of voting I've gone from registered Dem to Repub to Independent, which I believe NJ now calls Unaffiliated, since Independent sounded so strong. Mikeyboyee, I hope you're right, but after Ole Bill goes on his smooch tour, Bhengazi, etc. will roll right off of Hil's back.
  21. 12 out of 13, after a stiff glass of wine I might add. Overall, questions seemed kind of simple though.
  22. Also listened in. Man, did they play it safe tonight. And to think, he's the best we've got at this point. We are in a sad state of affairs.
  23. As some of you know, this is my first time around the block (FPID and P2Ps). Everything was submitted to local PD almost 2 months ago, references not contacted yet. I agree with Bob that the hold up isn't "through Trenton", but with the local PDs/barracks. How else can it be explained that some take less than 2 months and others are at 5 months and waiting. No matter how quickly the locals move, everything would back up at the state level if that's where the slow down really is. My local PD told me 5 months, don't call us, we'll call you. In many instances, the bottleneck seems to be at the beginning. Hopefully, only 3 months to go!

    I have to apologize, from the thread title I thought you wanted to trade your wife for a handgun. FWIW, not owning a single gun yet, the PX4 compact sounds like it meets your criteria. A friend of mine owns the full size, says it's light, handles well, is accurate and safe. Good luck.
