Which 45 to get?
Whether the slide is ready to accept the RMR is secondary in my opinion. Which one fits your hand better? Both are blocky, but the FNP 45 (yes I know it is not an FNX) I've handled was much squarer in the corners and felt even more like a length of 2x3 in my hand than a Glock does. If neither of these feel good, try an XD or XDm. Still a double stack 45 but the grip size is more in line with a G17/22 than a G21/41. Also pay attention to the grip angle and see what works for you. The lack of machining on the slide can be fixed with money. The size and shape of the grip, you're mostly stuck with. ETA: Just noticed you say you have a 21SF already. Maybe ignore my suggestion on the XD then.

The consummate skill displayed by writing so many words without passing a single bit of information is worthy of praise. However, as your representative, he should be fired immediately.

Opinions on first center fire rifle
It all depends on what you want to do with it. For 0-200 yds build an AR and try you're best to stop grinning. Longer than that, build a bolt gun for the purpose,

Cheek smack
Is the length of pull and drop the same on them all? What about magazine length and therefore balance? Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

SAF v NJ (MULLER et al v. MAENZA et al)
I also think the process of going via the superior court will remain which will make the process take months to complete, especially when we all apply at the same time. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

SAF v NJ (MULLER et al v. MAENZA et al)
My expectation is that they'll just strike the justifiable need part and leave everything else intact, especially as the case does not challenge any of the other requirements. This means there will be no distinction between open or concealed same as today. We'll also need to reapply every two years, qualify every whatever it is, only carry ball ammo, etc. Whether the legislature tries to change the rules later will remain to be seen. I find it hard to imagine them insisting on open carry only but I also struggle to understand the rationale for many of the gun bills we see. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

SAF v NJ (MULLER et al v. MAENZA et al)
I agree if cert is granted it is a huge step forward, but it is not the end of the story. I believe there is a saying about chickens and counting that is appropriate. Nonetheless, if it goes badly for us, at least you'll have a nice single malt to drown your sorrows - but you'll probably have to wait until the 21st to know why you're drinking.

Dog Name Suggestions
I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your dog. I can't help you come up with a name. I think you have to meet the dog first to be able to pick the right one. However, a bit of advice - make sure it's not a name you'll be shy about yelling across the park.

Question about using heavier bullets in a recipe
As a basic principal you should not use the same charge for a heavier bullet. The added inertia will cause the pressure to go up, possibly to dangerous levels. As stated above, find published load data for the powder/bullet combo and work your load up from the minimum in the load data. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

The end of airport firearms transport?
It depends on the reason for the stop. If he's looking to hook you up with a gun charge because you were waving it about as you drove along, I'd agree with you. However, the vast majority of stops are for moving violations and the cop has no reason to suspect there is a firearm on board until you tell him by saying I just came from x range.

What gun to teach my girlfriend to shoot on?
One of the best guns to learn on is a spring powered air rifle. Here's the reason: The gun operates by releasing a compressed spring which pushes a piston which compresses the air which pushes the pellet. There is alot of movement before the pellet starts its journey down the barrel. If she can master the trigger control and follow-through to shoot this accurately she'll be able to shoot just about anything. Also pellets are really cheap, and you can build a backstop for your back yard or basement fairly easily so there's much more opportunity for practice. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

My Rant of the day on mag limits bill A2006/S993
This 13th bullet thing is stupid. If he only had 10 round mags it would have been the 2nd bullet from the 2nd mag. If we had a 2 round limit it would have been the 2nd bullet from the 6th mag. This of couse assumes he would have paid attention to that law, even though he was happy to disregard the laws about stealing firearms, under 21's possessing pistols, taking firearms onto school property, let alone murdering people.

I have yet to be pulled over while transporting, but my answer to the "where have you come from?" or "where are you heading?" questions is the relevant town. It is truthful but does not lead to a question about whether guns are on board. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

Weapon light holsters that work without the light
HE, I see your points and they make sense if you are entering a known hostile environment in your capacity as a swat team member. On the other hand, I'm just a regular guy who is more likely to be reacting to a bump in the night which could just as easily have been caused by one of my daughters as an intruder. I am not willing to risk my daughters. I train to use a handheld light and I can still shoot pretty well with it. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2
