Lost tritium insert in front sight
This was pretty much covered in October

Lost tritium insert in front sight
They work great in the dark too. Tritium does absolutely nothing for you if you're using white light to identify your target. If you are not using light to identify your target, you don't need sights at all because you should not be pulling the trigger.

Also, unless you have the proper tools - and beefy ones at that - save yourself some bother and have a gunsmith install them. Springfield use some crazy high pressure ram to install sights. Tight does not even start to describe it and getting the existing set out will not be easy.

Here's a better selection: https://dawsonprecision.com/sights/springfield-armory-sights/springfield-armory-sight-sets/?_bc_fsnf=1&other=Black+Rear%2FOptic+Front The key is to get the fiber front sight and the plain black rear. Don't be temped to get fiber in the rear sight too - it doesn't help.

Current NICS Wait?
NJ would just moot the case by returning NICS same day, and then go back to their old ways after the case was dismissed. They can do timely NICS, they just choose not to staff it sufficiently.

Ditch the tritium and get whichever of these fit. https://dawsonprecision.com/sights/springfield-armory-sights/?_bc_fsnf=1&other=Black+Rear%2FOptic+Front

These are slowness with normal NICS checks. Not delayed or any other unusual circumstance.

Traveling out in and out of EWR - now with PTC
Further thought - how do UPS/Fedex/USPS transport firearms? Generally 1 day or 2 day Air, right? How can they move firearms though Newark without committing a felony?

Tested my intended carry ammo - a FAIL
This may also be attributable to worn recoil springs - although not so much for the G26 with the lower round count. Regular 115gr rounds are fairly zippy (compared with heavier bullets). Slide speed is directly related to bullet speed. If your recoil spring is underpowered it will resist the slide less than a new one which will also increase the slide speed. The faster the slide speed, the less time there is for the fresh round to move to the feed lips of the magazine which means it may not be in the optimal position to chamber correctly. This only be happening on the last round in the mag is consistent with this theory as that is the round with least upward tension on it from the mag spring.

Traveling out in and out of EWR - now with PTC
A4769 made possession of a firearm at a transport hub a felony, regardless of whether you have a carry permit or not. Also regardless of whether the gun is cased and unloaded or not. It came up in Friday's court hearing and the AG's lawyer said there is an exemption for the public rights of way, i.e. the roads, so to be legal you would have to use a curbside luggage check. I'm not sure how that would work - would the TSA come out to your car to inspect the gun case and attach the label? The big flaw in that is I don't see any exemption in the statutes for the luggage handler. They would be committing a felony by taking the luggage into the terminal. The transport hub restriction is not currently enjoined.

Magazine court case
That's all true and irrelevant. Now that we do have Bruen, the answer is very, very clear. Judge Bumb is expediting the carry cases and getting shit done. The Judge in charge of the magazine case is slow walking it and putting in as many delays as NJ is asking for. Oath to uphold the Constitution? Yeah, right!

NJ LAWMAKERS ANNOUNCE PLANS TO DESTROY RIGHT TO CARRY
They were not talking about using interest balancing to decide the case on the merits. The balancing is between the harms that each party say they would suffer if there was a PI or not.

Magazine court case
I know, but how can they justify continuing to infringe on 2A for months? There needs to be a PI now - actually, there should have been a PI in 2018.

Magazine court case
They have to be fricking kidding! Discovery for the mag ban case - the one that has a record filled enough to get all the way up to SCOTUS and back since 2018 - is scheduled to last until at least OCTOBER! Is there some rule that say if you have successfully infringed on the 2nd Amendment long enough, it is OK to keep doing it? https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.njd.378098/gov.uscourts.njd.378098.154.0.pdf In case anyone is in any doubt - yes I'm pissed!

So what is the law regarding Bars (With current Injunction in place)
The TRO is irrelevant. The prohibition on consuming alcohol while carrying is in section 5 which does not come into effect until July 1st, 2023.

NJ Handgun Carry Permit Application Experience
My permit has "No restrictions" and "See court order" both checked. I was pulled over a couple of weeks ago. The State Trooper did the usual roadside interview questions - where are you coming from, where are you headed, etc. It came out that I had come from the Phillipsburg Pistol Club members meeting and was heading home (1/4 mile away). He eventually got around to asking if there were any guns in the car. Trooper: Do you shoot a lot? Me: I run a match every month and I'm an instructor Trooper: So do you have a lot of guns? Me: What's "a lot"? Trooper: So any guns in the car? Me: Yes Trooper: In the trunk? Me: No, on my hip Trooper: You have a permit? Me: Yes, here (hands over permit) Trooper: OK There was no attempt to inspect the gun, did not ask for a copy of the court order, no twitchiness at all. He let me go with a warning for the driving infraction. He did comment that I was his first encounter with a permit holder and I complimented him on being so chill with it. We shook hands and said goodnight. ETA: My court order says I have to carry my permit. It does not say I have to carry the court order.

So you got you PTC... question
If you do find some mags that work, get a micrometer and check the spacing of the feed lips. You may be able to tune the problem mags so they work properly.

NJ Handgun Carry Permit Application Experience
This only makes sense if you claim you didn't mean to shoot the person. If you shoot someone and claim self defense, you not only admit that you shot them, but that you intended to. What prosecutor is going to see any benefit in claiming that you are not capable of doing what you said you intended to do, but instead claim that you hit your target by accident?
