I sent an inquiry in via the website, asked them to stop calling and stop mailing me renewal forms when I'm only 3 months into my yearly membership. Said if they couldn't do that I would not renew, especially since it was my opinion the NRA has pretty much given up on NJ. It took a month to get a response. It was a cut and paste job that said "They added my preference for contact". Nothing about giving up on NJ, not that I really expected one.

I have not yet based on the numerous posts I've read stating emails do not get replied to.

Thanks Josh. Do you know if I'd be able to get a tour of the facilities at the same time?

Did you get an answer for this yet?

I'm leaning towards joining a club vs going to a range in the hopes that I will see less stupidity and feel slightly safer in a place that has requirements to get in. Rather than pay the money and sign a waiver.

Don't you mean ADDITIONAL weapon bans? As in additional bans to those already on the books that have done so much to keep us all safer. (Yes that was sarcasm)

Seems to me to be a normal cycle. Couple to few years mild winters then couple to few severe. Same with the summers. Just a fact of life. Especially for the Northeast. Edit to add: As for the angry people yelling at plow drivers; I run my own vehicle as a subcontractor and occasionally get sent to a development controlled by a HOA. Only responsible for the roads. Specifially told to stay out of the drives. I just go right by the people acting like you know what. On the other hand when I see someone chipping away I will occasionally take the 15 secs to clear their apron. Depends on the amount, my schedule, and the person doing the work. Especially if they are neighbors of one of the a-holes. Even told one guy as much when he thanked me.

Doesn't mention any show deals, or ammo sales.

So Honda is looking to get into standby genny market? Interesting. Too bad I'm looking to buy before they'd be ready to release. Now if they're looking for beta testers I'm all in!!!

So after much debate I accepted the fact that I was just going to have to buy and try. Ordered a DeSantis off of Amazon. Did so based on that is what S&W sells (for more $ of course since logo is on it) and had good reviews. Yes I know it was not mentioned here. Just got it today. Initial thoughts are if it doesn't stretch out (it is leather) it's useless. Holstering the pistol racks the slide back. Once holster is on belt the extra tension makes it impossible to remove the pistol. Yes tension screw is all the way out. Little note in the bag said to put gun in dress sock inside holster and let it sit overnight to stretch. Also to wear it for a while to break it in. I will be trying both.

I guess I've just been fortunate enough to not have a failure with .22 rounds through my rifle yet. Didn't realize that it was so common.

CCI .......

So why don't the make the inside of the magazine slimmer to prevent the side movement? I would think it would be a more ideal situation for the rounds to remain square throughout the entire process.

Good enough for me. Thanks

I should add there is much more side to side movement of the rounds within the magazine compared to my 9mm. Since all four magazines had this same behavior I took it to be normal. But you mentioning the round getting hung up on the way into the chamber makes me think that is the cause. Yes, this is my first 22 pistol and only my second handgun total. So please excuse the novice questions and/or incorrect terminology.

Bullet itself has some marks nothing on the very top. I'd have to look at an unfired round to compare. There is also a mark on the base where the pin (is it still called a firing pin on rimfire pistols?) contacted the round. While taking a closer look I also noticed that the bullet will free spin inside the case now.

Sorry, failure to fire. When it happened I ejected the magazine and racked the slide. Round ejected I saw the deformity, checked the rest of the mag looked fine so I continued with no other problems. Edit to add.... Hard to tell in the picture, but the bullet is slightly separated and angled away from the case. Looks like it tried to fire but did not.

This happened within first 50-100 rounds through my new S&W M&P22. Only occurrence out of 250 rounds. I'm not overly concerned since it was the only one, but would still like to have an idea. Was this a defect in the round, or something the pistol caused? Round is a CCI 40 grain 22LR. TIA Kevin

Phone call to pick up my permits was almost a week after the issue date.

Ditto what Joe says. Hamilton Barracks covers the area, polite enough but expect a 5-6 month wait with no status updates.

Good selection, good price, fast no hassle service and no hassle holding of pistol while waiting out my 30 days.

There was a link on here somewhere. Tell the manager he should know his damn job.

Isn't dew point as big as or not bigger factor than humidity alone?

Not all shops will do that. I called a place that had a hard to find at the time hg I wanted in stock. Told them I could be there in 45min pay in full if they would hold for me. The J-off actually told me it was illegal to do so. Translation "we know we can sell it so go pound sand". Result= they will never see anymore (I previously spent money there) of me or my money. It's their business and they can set any policy that they want; but have the balls to be honest about it and not make up some BS reason. About a month later I found my chosen hg at Cheyenne (for less $). They gladly held it for me "as long as it took" so long as it was paid for. Remixer is currently housing my new hg for me as I wait out my 30 days.
