How often do CCW holders stop crime?
This might not be what you were asking, but it does seem relevant that one person armed with a pistol somehow managed to stop 2 heavily armed perps from attacking 150 people. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_Culwell_Center_attack

Question about state residence
This is in direct violation of the Real ID Act. I would not recommend doing this.

Share this with your anti friends
I have read a lot of anti posts today and get the sense that they'd counter that this would just lead to more victims. The imbedded fear is that they don't want to be around a gun. At all. Period. Full stop. To them, everything is an AR and it all needs to be banned.

Buckshot 100rds for $30 after MIR
I scored some 357 HP for $0.10 per round last year thanks to a rebate. It took a while to get my check but it worked out and I got a $100 rebate. This time, I loaded up on a .380 deal as well as some .38 special. All in, I'm expecting to get a $300 rebate. Remington's website says its in process, so hopefully I'll be reporting back in a few more weeks with some positive news.

Mech tech ccu
16" barrel is a federal restriction, FYI. From Wikipedia, here's the list of "evil features" recognized by NJ: Since these devices retain the pistol grip and clearly use a detachable magazine, you'd be restricted from the other 5 items on the list.

It's fine. For example, the Beretta Neos carbine kit is perfectly fine. Just be sure you find something that follows all the rifle laws (barrel must be 16" or greater, etc).

What do you guys do with your "Cable Gun Locks"
A local PD was giving them out once so I grabbed a few to use as motorcycle wheel locks.

Anyone have a CCW Permit on here??
Worthy! I'm still hopeful that some 2a group will lean on the historic definition of "well regulated" to push that the federal government is negligent in not providing weapons and training to all citizens!

Soft shooting 20 gauge.
I just shot a morning of trap with a new-to-me Stoeger. I think it's the same Dick's special 12ga O/U you're mentioning. Anyway, I put the slip-on recoil pad and it was a breeze to shoot. Here's a link to the pad https://www.ebay.com/itm/231848884158

One stop scrapping
I'm about a mile away from you. I'll be sure to visit next time I have something to scrap!

May I ask, are there restrictions on your carry privileges such as only while working?

Wallet Stolen - FID question regarding sale?
Agreed. Works for me.

Pump Shotgun Capacity
I'm doing the math and am equally confused. 7 rounds of 2.75" shells would be 19.25". That leaves 0.75" of extra space for a followers and compressed spring. I can't imagine how they expect to fit an extra shell in there.

Cleaning Weapons on back deck after range?
My wife loves the smell of CLP. Lucky me!

Reichenbach German Beer Hall in NYC
Sounds like a NJGF meet-up is necessary to settle this.

Reichenbach German Beer Hall in NYC
I walk past this place every morning. Always a treat to get the schnitzel and beer. The blonde girl on their advertising is an actual waitress there too!

Joe Rullo for Gov - Anyone know anything about him?
GRIZ for Governor! Seriously though, my sentiments exactly.

Soft shooting 20 gauge.
Have you considered a slip-on cushion? It increases the LOP about 3/4" but eliminated about 75% of the felt recoil on my Ithaca 37. I also picked up an older 1100 LT-20 recently for this same reason. My dad is 80 and he can shoot an afternoon of trap without fatigue if he uses this gun. Since you already have an 1100, it would be a nice transition if either of you wanted to swap between gauges.

870 Express Magnum!
It's a matte finish hardwood and the metal has a very dark grayish matte finish to it. Nothing fancy. I don't hunt but I'd like to learn how and start. I gather this would be a good choice to drag around in the field.

870 Express Magnum!
Another shotgun followed me home! I was kinda thinking about getting a HD shotgun and browsed through the used rack at Bullethole when I spotted an 870 with a deer barrel. As it turns out, it's an 870 Express Magnum combo and has a 28" barrel with vent rib and adjustable choke. It even came with the original box and everything! A few dollars and a background check later, I was on my way home. So, I have never seen a gun with more dust. The gun was made back in 1994 and probably hasn't been fired since then. Dust bunnies in the action... a first for me, but cleaned up easier than carbon. Since its from 1994, it has the older metal trigger group which I think is a nicer choice anytime. This is my first 870, so does anyone have any other advice or favorite mods?

Joe Rullo for Gov - Anyone know anything about him?
I started following him on FB and even messaged him a few times. IMHO, he doesn't have the horsepower to make it through. I admire what he is saying and think he is well intentioned BUT his positions are limited and views on fiscal reform are not grounded in any apparent understanding of the deeper complexities of government financing and funding. In short; he seems nice but we need more than just a nice guy. I think a better offensive is to characterize Sweeney as a bully high school grad who is not smart enough to guide the state past HIS own failed budget.

storage question
100% correct. I have a good friend who is a municipal counsel and also my attorney for things like real estate. When I sold my house and needed to know if an unused P2P was still valid, he was completely unequiped to advise me. Verdict? Get the right counsel for the task at hand.

Anderson AR stripped lowers $44.95
Sure, I paid a few $$ more, but the opportunity cost of driving all the way out there just didn't seem worth it when I have a local FFL who is happy to meet 8pm on a weekday (Louie G's Outdoors, Secaucus). Hackettstown is over 1 hour drive for me, so I figured $73.92 per lower worked out instead of spending the $20 I could have saved on gas and missing dinner with my boy. Here's my breakdown: 2 lowers plus shipping: $77.84 NICS: $15.00 Transfer #1: $35.00 Transfer #2: $20.00
