Welcome!

That's ok, I get enough shit at home for free!

Ahhh, ok, my bad. I thought it meant all tubular mags. Yes my 72A is bolt gun. Love to shoot it.

Love the snow, hate the ice. Take your time, ice has no conscience!

When are the results posted?

Welcome

I sure am glad they are out of the prison. Was getting a little stagnant.

I am happy for you that you have an NJGF shirt. That doesn't help us new guys that would like to show our connection to this forum. I commend Bugsy for stepping up. I'll buy some shits also.

So, my 1940's era Winchester 72A that has been in this state since new is illegal? Wow, I have been bring it to the range for years. I love New Jersey. Unbelievable.

Give back nothing. Stand by our Constitution! We have the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, No one can or should take that right from us.

Welcome frome the South!

Deleted. Seems to be ok now.

Welcome from Blackwood.

Welcome from down south!

Very Nice!!

"Hopefully, once this new organization takes shape, there will be some "directives" published as to where the avg. volunteer like myself can put their efforts to best use... to help in forming a "united front..." something we desperately need." /\ This!/\ I will help as much as possible, just need to see that this will be an organization, not just a bunch of like minded guys. The Anti's are very organized. Let me know, I would love to help down here in the south.

Who is the new group? Why all the secrecy. Maybe more people can help, but there is no information. I like the fact of Regions. I think that works best in a large group. But lack of info is not helping your cause. I will help any group that will stand up against these ridiculous laws. I am also pushing for CCW in Jersey, but first things first. We definitely need to work both parties.

Tom, believe me I appreciate all that everyone associated with NJ2AS has done. And I understand about family commitments. But not having By-Laws is basically the same as not having a Second Amendment. They are meant to protect the many from the few. We are fighting NJ politicians (The Few) that are trying to push their agenda on us (The many). Same thing with a group like NJ2AS. The body needs a voice in decisions. Y You said " Most of the original founders are not active on the board." So who is active on the board? You also said "Imagine if we did have the By-Laws and a year after we first started had an election and someone got voted in that either couldn't put the time in or only really cared to get the title." If you have By-Laws and elections, you usually you can weed out the bullshit artists from the elections by majority vote. I don't think this scenario is much different now. Do you feel that the current situation could have been avoided with By-Laws? I do. Look, I am the new guy. My voice is new and untested, I understand that, but if changes don't happen quickly, NJ2AS appears to be doomed. How many new members do you think we have lost from new NJGF members that have read this and the Facebook posts and said "wow, I am not going to get involved in this mess." For the good of the group, if you do have By-Laws post them and poll all of the members. Get the body's thoughts. You never know it may help. Unfortunately, I will be in Florida on business at the next meeting which is at my home range. I do plan to attend the next meeting after that and introduce myself and offer whatever help I can. Good luck, these are truly make or break times for NJ2AS. And thank you for helping start NJ2AS.

Wow, we are doomed. The libs are gonna crush us with these new bills unless everyone works together. If there is a new group great, we can hit them from two fronts. But all the groups must coordinate and work together. I just joined NJ2AS a few months ago and hope it can pull through. If not so be it, but the infighting needs to stop. About bylaws, I have been in many groups and I have never been in one that has no rules. That concerns me greatly. Honestly if I had known about the lack of bylaws I probably would not have joined NJ2AS. Every organization must have some kind of rule structure. How can we fight to protect the Second Amendment (which is basically a rule) when we have no rules ourselves. A group is about it's members, if only the original 10 make the rules than that stymies growth. Collaboration is the key to growth, not dictatorship. I hope we can get it together, because with all these new laws coming, my only hope may be to cross the river to free America. Remember we reap what we sow.

Welcome!
