  1. Just remember permits have to be used 30 days apart so 3 permits = 90 days, after 90 days they expire unless you request they extend them for an additional 90 days. If you find multiple pistols find out if the your FFL dealer will hold them for you, fill out the exemption form and hand it in to the local PD. Takes 2-4 weeks and when it comes back approved you can pickup all handguns listed on that exemption without waiting.
  2. NRA email I just got: BREAKING NEWS: NRA Forces Obama to Wave White Flag on Proposed Ammo Ban … For NowFairfax, Va. – The National Rifle Association (NRA) was instrumental in stalling the Obama Administration’s initial attempt to ban commonly used ammunition for the most popular rifle in America, the AR-15. The announcement that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) will suspend its proposed framework to ban M855 ammunition validates the NRA’s assertion that this effort was nothing more than a political maneuver to bypass Congress and impose gun control on the American people. "Today’s announcement proves what we have said all along – this was 100% political. President Obama failed to pass gun control through Congress, so he tried to impose his political agenda through executive fiat. But every gun owner in America needs to understand Barack Obama’s hatred of the Second Amendment has not changed," said Wayne La Pierre, Executive Vice President of the National Rifle Association. Chris Cox, Executive Director of NRA-ILA criticized the dishonest campaign to ban this common ammunition: “The lies used to justify the ban were shameful. This proposal was never about law enforcement safety – it was about the Obama Administration’s desire to pander to billionaire Michael Bloomberg and his gun control groups. Since they haven’t been able to ban America’s most popular rifle, they are trying to ban the ammunition instead.” Since the BATFE announced its plan to ban commonly used ammunition less than a month ago, the NRA rallied its five million members and tens of millions of supporters across the country in strong opposition. In addition, the NRA worked with congressional leaders in both the U.S. House and Senate to oppose this misguided proposal. “The NRA would like to thank House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and House Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations Subcommittee Chairman John Culberson for leading the fight against this unconstitutional attack on our Second Amendment freedoms,” continued Cox. “This was a significant victory for our five million members and tens of millions of supporters across the country. “Make no mistake, this fight is not over. We will remain vigilant and continue to fight against President Obama’s attempt to dismantle the Second Amendment,” concluded LaPierre.

  3. Received my extension today for two permits, Chief signed and dated today so I'm good for another 90 days. Overall I'm happy.
  4. It will not pass, the response ATF got over this was incredible.
  5. And it's a good observation IMO.
  6. If it's a work gun probably a Glock or Sig, but you are right most Dept's do not let you buy and use personal sidearms unless (I've been told) you qualified with that weapon.
  7. The Hi-Power has a better trigger but comes with a magazine disconnect which many choose to remove, easy to do and worth it. Not sure what budget you have in mind but Novak, Cylinder n Slide, Don Williams, and Ted Yost do excellent custom Hi-Powers if you want a match grade pistol. Try and find someone or a shop that has a HP in stock so you can compare it to the CZ-75, they are different and some like the CZ over the HP or vice versa.

    Most should upload the logs within a week. Never got SA on 10m, that's a nice find
  9. At that point you should just get a centerfire pistol... Because BB pistols are a threat to public safety....all of those drive by shootings in Camden with BB handguns. Actually, it's known that if you are "connected" you stand a better chance at being able to own machine guns, assault weapons, and CCW in this State. Most corrupt State in the nation and for a reason

    Hearing a few station out of England this morning calling on 28.400
  11. You should be covered by eBay buyer protection, demand a refund and send it back with tracking. If the seller refuses to make good eBay will debit his account and refund you for the purchase.
  12. Hi-Power or a nice used Smith & Wesson 39 or 59. Those S&W 39 and 59's can be had for $300 or so if you look around online, great pistol. Original GP35's can be pricey but FEG (Hungarian) Hi-Power clones are decent.
  13. Not buying into the BS again, plenty of M855 is floating around. I still get cans of Chinese steel core 7.62x39, sure I pay twice as much per round as people did in the 90's but it still exists... And if you reload you can still find loose bulk green tip bullets on gunbroker...sure it would be illegal to manufacturer but hard to prove if you used mil-surplus brass.
  14. Good thing I no longer shoot 556 308 only in semi-autos. I feel bad for AR owners but did you not see this coming? AR pistols have been on the market for years now.
  15. If you have an attic go for it. I have some of my fathers rifles that were in storage since the early 80's, sat in the attic with a coating of oil and they were just fine and didn't rust up. Don't sell it if you can afford to keep it, pack it away.
  16. Not a trap, just a poor pin/block job.
  17. They also pull blueprints of "assault weapons" I sold a shit load of blueprints, manuals, etc. and ebay pulled the plug yet allowed other sellers to keep listings for the same items up. ebay is a joke for us sellers, for the buyers it's great.

    You should make the trip to Dayton, Ohio it's May 15-17 and if you can't find it from one of the indoor or outdoor vendors it probably doesn't exist. Well worth the drive I booked last minute in 2013 and grabbed the last room I could find online, the drive was a back breaker (10 hours or so just stopping for fuel each way) but I brought home so much stuff...actually I even picked up a payphone for $40 and programmed it for the house Besides equipment I remember one guy had a huge RCA sign from a store/service shop....damn it I wanted that in the worst way but couldn't lug it home.

    Any old tube gear?
  20. Nice little town...pretty convenient around here. I thought about telling the PD that but when I applied for my FPID but I waited and waited, called nicely and finally sent Nappen a email requesting his fees....to my surprise he called the PD at no charge on my behalf and the card was issued. The P2P process is interesting, they questioned what handguns I was buying and if they were assault weapons...asking what each one was (I turned in the exemption request with model/make/cal/etc..) but the turnaround for the permits and exemption was around 50 or 60 days which isn't bad.
  21. I think you got it right, I couldn't remember off hand. 6 months is insane for the FPID, but the whole FPID requirement is insane.
  22. This is NJ. The forms are outdated, actually the entire system is backwards and outdated. In FL they trust the public with a drivers license and call to NICS...here it's FPID card or P2P PLUS NICS at point of sale. But hey this is NJ and if you are connected it shouldn't take too long, this State is so corrupt I forget which college but one uses NJ as the prime example of small town political corruption...go figure!
  23. This x1000 So the guy that makes $25-$35K per year shouldn't own a gun but the guy that makes $50K plus should? Why should income matter? why should employment matter? both go hand in hand so I see it as discrimination.
  24. Be forewarned, Somers Point Police Department wasn't satisfied with "self-employed" and I've heard this from other towns too. I had to be extremely specific about my employment, how I advertise, etc. they questioned why I didn't advertise and how I managed to generate income with no advertising. Very intrusive.
