  1. You wouldn't like the Covid pricing. Besides, this is my present to myself to celebrate my US citizenship so it's not for sale
  2. No one can tell from the front.
  3. My PCC is finished. https://www.dropbox.com/s/aw40lznz0lzxfap/20210507_164513.jpg?dl=0
  4. The Rossi is OK, but suffers the same problem as the Winchester underlever - if you work the lever too fast the fresh round will sometimes stand up vertical and not load into the chamber. I much prefer the Marlin 1894 - particularly if you can get an earlier one. The Marlin has a solid top and ejects out the side. It is much easier to mount an optic if you want as the top strap is drilled and tapped for a rail.
  5. You can buy handgun ammo with a PtPP too - you get a copy to take home with the handgun. You don't need an FPIC.
  6. The background check for a PtPP is exactly the same as for an FPIC. If you have never been "in the system" before you still need to be fingerprinted. For the sake of $5 it isn't worth not getting the FPIC at the same time, but it is not required.
  7. Handgun permits have your SBI number on them and you can apply for just a handgun permit without ever having an FPIC. You can also buy handgun ammo in NJ by presenting your copy of the used handgun permit.
  8. I have an Epsilon coming for a non-NFA other. It is advertised as a flash hider as well as a comp/brake so be careful of your evil feature count. The Gamma is good to go as it is only a comp/brake.
  9. Uh-oh. A fudd and a brass chicken!
  10. Do it now while you can - the older you get the harder it is to get anyone to give you a new job, let alone one in a new career path. Additionally, don't worry about a degree. They are a way to distinguish somebody from the rest of the fresh-out-of-school crowd that look for junior positions. If you reach your mid 30's and rely on a non-specialized degree (I mean not a MD, or similar) to get a job, you really haven't done anything with your 10+ year career so far and I wouldn't be hiring you. Experience and actual, provable ability (show what you've done, not what you should be able to do) greatly outweigh what a bit of paper from a school says.
  11. I am hopeful that this will go our way, but I also worry what other nefarious means the likes of Grewal and his ilk can come up with. An obvious one is a expansion of the "sensitive areas" that were carved out in Heller. If they expand that to 5000ft from a school, how much of NYC would be a prohibited area?
  12. Truly a shoulder thing that goes up! At last! We are saved!
  13. The OP has only mentioned having handguns. An FPIC gives you nothing with regard to handguns except the ability to buy handgun ammo. It gives you no protections for acquisition, possession or transportation. For handguns you need a permit to carry a handgun. Otherwise you rely on the exemptions and exceptions written into the law. Can you imagine being in a traffic stop at the side of the road and when asked for your license you offer a boating license? That is what you are doing if you offer a FPIC as a license to possess a handgun. I know lots of FFLs ask for your FPIC when you buy a handgun. They don't need to. All the info they need is on the PtPP including your SBI number - with the added bonus that the PtPP actually authorizes the transfer of a handgun. An FPIC does not. An FPIC allows you to do things with rifles and shotguns.
  14. I like pinging steel with a handgun at that distance too.
  15. I have never had to have references get anything notarized. Before FARS, the Sargent at NJSP who dealt with my apps used to call the references - he never even sent them anything, let alone needed anything signed returned to him. When I did a carry permit application through him he needed my referees to sign a form, but that was it - still no notary needed. There are towns that illegally add to the paperwork needed demanded, including notarized forms. The statute specifically says they are not allowed to do that.
  16. For FPIC and PtPP you have to provide 2 references. For a permit to carry a handgun you need 3 references.
  17. Another option may be to change platforms and pick up a Tavor. Being a bullpup design, there is less weight forward of your strong hand and I believe that can be configured for left hand ejection.
  18. All the holes touching which will sometimes look like a cloverleaf outline. Also know as a single hole group. It is harder to do with a .22 than a .45.
  19. IT all depends on what you're shooting for and with For precision with a handgun, I would say a cloverleaf at 7-10 yards and up to 4 inches at 25 yards. For action shooting like IDPA or USPSA the size of the down-0 or A-zone is what you need to hit. On an IDPA target the down-0 on the body is 8" and on the head it's 4". You need to be able to hit that and whatever distance is to the target. You adjust your speed depending on the target distance. i.e. you can hit an 8" circle really fast at 7 yards, but have to slow down and aim more carefully when it's 25 yards away. IDPA has a rule that you cannot force a headshot farther than 10 yards. With a rifle, I would want to be able to do less than 1 MOA (approx. 1" at 100 yards) shooting prone off a rest. Other positions would be larger groups than that.
  20. The statute says that the cop must assume you don't have a permit until you "establish to the contrary". It doesn't put the onus on the cop. It puts the onus on you, the permit holder.
  21. Pistol purchase permits went digital last year. The Chief of your local PD still needs to approve them. They automatically get extended to 180 days if you don't use them in the first 90 days.
  22. You need to carry a copy so you don't get nailed by this... 2C:39-2. Presumptions b. Licenses and permits. When the legality of a person's conduct under this chapter depends on his possession of a license or permit or on his having registered with or given notice to a particular person or agency, it shall be presumed that he does not possess such a license or permit or has not registered or given the required notice, until he establishes the contrary.
  23. As the dimensions you posted don't match what is currently on their website, I assumed they had updated the design since you bought yours and therefore the computer model they show on their website may not depict what you are selling. I also assumed that the safe was empty as you are selling it. Sorry. Good luck with the sale.
  24. Can you post pictures of the interior layout, please?
  25. That's a pistol and would be transferred as a pistol on the 4473. It is not legal in NJ due to the weight being more than double that allowed for a pistol with detachable mag outside the grip. ETA: the barrel shroud also counts as an evil feature so it is illegal in NJ for 2 reasons.
