Hey Joe, For some reason the site's not letting me send you a pm. Did you accept the 1st offer or mine? Thanks, Ben

I'll take it if previous offer falls through.

Good for you, now go to the range and get it all dirty. Let us know how it shoots!

Just a few, and I believe in our justice system, but like anything else it is not perfect. I also believe that history has shown us that not all prosecutors and defense teams are completely altruistic in their approach, which may result in a miscarriage of justice. I admit "in theory" may have been to strong a term so I'm going with "mostly fact".

Being nervous about your first cleaning is absolutely normal, and maybe not a bad thing. I must have watched different YouTube videos a zillion times (ok, maybe a million) before my first time. Just go slow with a basic field strip and you'll be fine. If you get stuck don't panic, just let us know. Helped my son with his S&W 2.0 and it was a piece of cake, relax you'll do fine.

In theory

Sorry Krdshrk, my pc skills are severely lacking. I just typed in crossbreed minituck shield 45, then selected the option showing $48.95 (that's the price for the shield45, all others are $74). Says soon in stock, mine is supposed to arrive Oct. 15th.

Good evening, Amazon has the Crossbreed minituck rh/black for the Shield in 45 for $48.95 + tax, retail is $75 + tax/shipping.

Thanks Peel, another great article that's very informative.

Covering this so they don't have to cover Afghanistan, the border, inflation, the continuance of covid, bowing down to China, Russia, taliban, no longer energy independent, etc., etc.

Heartbreaking to be sure. I especially can't imagine what the families of both will be going through for the rest of their lives. I also can't help but think, from what little we've learned, is that the self absorption exhibited by these two young adults is becoming far too common. Tragic really, they had their whole lives ahead of them.

You mean like Callahan?

If that's the case, I'm guessing Beto Boy? ATF hasn't had an actual appointment for quite a while.

Krdshrk, I respect your firearms knowledge, but the Ocean's 11 remake better than the original with the rat pack? No way! 45Doll, I too remember watching Godzilla and other movies in black and white on Million Dollar Movie over and over again. Matter of fact, the Million Dollar Movie theme song came to mind reading your post.

Wasn't thinking and got a pair with magnification on bottom, had to raise my head to look through bottom of lens so that wouldn't work. Got a pair with magnification on top and bottom, but that didn't work for me. Ended up with 2.0 magnification lenses and that's what I use. Probably not the best option, but works for me so far.

That is really interesting, especially the sinking/refloating. We've been to the Lake George region several times, but the closest I've gotten to a dive was an evening ride on the steamboat. Was the dive shop in Mercer on Rt 33 in Hamilton Twp.?

And I'm sure hoping I'm wrong, but as I've posted before, the majority of previous decisions by our recently appointed "constitutionalist conservative" judges have not been too encouraging to say the least.

Thanks for the info. Maybe I'll take a ride down to Cape May and stop in to the Atlantic County Sheriff Dept. on the way. Will call ahead of course. Interesting that Florida took the electronic set, I thought I read they only take inked cards from out of state, have to re-read.

Samian, Couple of questions if you don't mind. Were the prints you had done in Blackwood inked? Can I ask what it cost for the initial card and extras? They were stamped Hamilton Twp PD, would that be the one in central NJ near Trenton? Thanks, Ben Mike, Nice to hear they let you correct it via email. NJ would have probably required you to resubmit the whole thing.

Thanks Mike, I'm sure it will get sorted out, it's a PITA having to jump through all these hoops though.

If anyone cares, just did an online update, says fingerprints are ineligible to do a proper background check. Said I would be receiving a letter on how to resolve the issue. Oh well, just another bump in the road, I wonder if any of this is what our founding fathers envisioned. The quest continues.

Whoa! Somebody's tighty whiteys are giving them a wedgie! But seriously here, what started as Taylor ham was changed to Taylor PORK ROLL by Taylor himself, so why does this thread even continue? Case (Pork roll) closed.

Printed and mailed mine too. I requested fingerprint cards from the Florida website, they came in a little over a week and didn't cost anything. I already had a cert form taking the NRA Pistol class, and a couple of passport photos I got from AAA for $10 when I re-upped my passport. I took the card to the Mercer County Sheriff's Office for the fingerprints, no charge. Packed everything up with a check for $97 and mailed USPS. If you don't have any certs or photos or just don't want the hassle it's probably worth it to pay for the course.

No live fire required, not limited to particular gun. Do need to send some type of certification, i.e. NRA Pistol, Hunter's Ed., etc. The Florida ccw permit site covers the requirements and everything else needed.

Did the online check, got the "in progress" too. Says they'll contact you by phone or mail if there's a problem. I don't plan on contacting them for awhile since they state it could take 90 days or more to complete, just hoping there's no issue with the prints since I'm sure everything else is good. Good luck everybody.
