  1. Saw it. Real cool. Thanks for the tip
  2. Dirt diver replied to Shawnmoore81's topic in Handguns
    "Cute" has a lot of kick sometimes. My wife loves the ruger gp 100 in 357. She uses 38 spec in it with little kick. It really absorbs everything and is easy to load and maintain. Don't let the looks scare her until she try's one.
  3. Invest some cash in an attorney like Nappen if they are delaying this strongly at this stage then I can't even imagine all the delays once they accept the application. The attorney should send the first letter and follow through until you get everthing.
  4. Watch the speed traps on the way in and out as you pass through the small towns. Learned that the hard way twice. Ticketed me for doing 28 in a 25 right where the American flags start
  5. I bring duraseal spinners to range 14. Easy to hammer into the ground and easy to see when you hit them. Since they're not metal you can place them close for handgun or further out for long gun. Check with the RO for distance but I think they can be placed as close as 15 yards if you want. Just show the RO that they aren't metal. Cabeleas have them in all shapes and sizes. If you want to add height drill some long holes in 2 x 2s and dig them into the ground. You'll need the post hole digger but won't need to check targets during the cease fires
  6. Feet are a form of transportation. Wrapped in a secured bag with a lock should be fine. Anyway we all walk to the range door from our cars. Sometimes parking is a far walk. Can we get nabbed for carrying for that? I don't see any laws that you need to park within a certain number of to the range entry. The old bridge indoor range is in a semi residential area. I can't park on the resi street and walk on busy event days?
  7. Squirels or chipmunks will do this when they are burrowing a hole. They move the gravel to one place once out of the hole
  8. I'm talking hypothetically between family members in the same household to make the subject of the thread easier (for long guns). You are correct as far as the letter of the law but completing a COA everytime a son borrows his father's over under to go shoot trap is just silly and belts and suspenders. To each his own
  9. For long guns, the COA just needs to be dated prior to the transfer. Not for every transfer if it's to the same person. It could be years old. Some people complete a COA for every family member holding an fid the minute they get home from the store and keep all copies in your safe. The original purchaser is covered by the store version and others are covered by the new ones. I never carry the COA's for the long guns. If ever needed, you could just grab the applicable version.
  10. My wife loves my ruger gp100 357. 4in No kick at all with 38spl but not concealable. She has a ruger LCR 38spl. Nice and small but it hurts her hands on the kick so we swaped
  11. +2 They won't shovel my sidewalk either. They just refer it to a code person who issues a fine. This is stealing. At least knock on his door after pulling it out and hand it to him
  12. Yes, happened to me at the east brunswick store on a Sunday. "Sorry, no one in the store today has an Ammo card". They were nicely stocked. Bummed. Went back later that week and all gone.
  13. This is a forum. Someone asks a question and the answer gets batted around. Most use phrases like IMO or the DA probably won't charge. We are all big boys. If everyone starts worrying about that someone will say "I was told on such and such forum I wouldn't get charged" then simply don't post a response to legal questions. To tell others not to give legal advise runs counter to having a forum in the first place. People read answers and must decide on what's right, wrong, risky or not in any given situation.
  14. 100% correct. Won't even come to a vote. It's just a feel good proposal for them
  15. Ruger LCR. Nice and small for ccw but its only a 5
  16. 3/4 oz of pepper/mace is the limit for person to person defense. The larger can if bear spray is ok to have when you need defense for bears. It's all in the intention. When camping anywhere in nj I would be concerned about bears so its ok to carry bear spray when camping but if you are asked you have it for bears and not to protect yourself and your girl from humans
  17. It's 3/4 oz to carry for personal self defense against humans. These stores carry the larger bear sprays because its ok to carry it for hiking for bear defense. I wouldn't carry it walking down Main Street Woodbridge but while hiking in bear country it's ok. I guess you can have it in your car if you are on the way to hiking. Similar to having a knife in your car on the way to fishing but remember transport rules. The 20 yard wasp spray is just as good and cheaper against bears and people and I don't think you can get in trouble for having wasp spray within reach in your car since your just bringing it somewhere for its intended purpose (if asked). My wife keeps a can of wasp spray on her passenger front seat in a Home Depot bag
  18. This is forty. Red boxed it and still regretted it. Painful.
  19. Solo Trattoria in downtown Freehold. Good BYOB Always great food and service. Always our date night place when we get a sitter
  20. Any one know the Delaware laws on this? Looking forward to no sales tax Cabelas in 2014
  21. I was asked and said no. You're not under oath.
  22. It's all BS. They are either lazy or anti gun. Get specifics on what stage they are at but be polite. If they blame the Feds, call the FBI biometrics division. With your ssi they can track it and let you know when they sent the prints back. If they are waiting on references find out when they exactly sent them and if necessary resend. If all else fails go to your town counsel member or lawyer up. They are violating your rights. The FBI told me they returned the prints to my chief months prior and the SBI unit told me the same thing. I relayed that to chief and he said he'd check on it. After nothing, I lawyered up. One letter threatening suit and it was a miracle. Cc the mayor, town counsel, local prosecutor, town attorney and state representative. Towns budgets are so tight they don't want to spend legal fees. If you copy the mayor and town attorney they must review it and bill the town accordingly. Got a call almost immediately and they were ready. About $500 well spent. Be polite but firm and stay on them, call every week and write down every conversation and excuse. On your next visit tell them on this date you told me "xxx" etc..
  23. There is no long gun registry
  24. "Menace" and "threaten" are too subjective for this state. I had a neighbor call LE on me while cleaning out my garage. No guns in view just targets full of holes and general garage stuff. One targwt was the standing hostile 2 which is a woman. The cop came, made some chit chat with me and left. No problem but it makes me want to start cleaning "everything" in the front yard from now on
