  1. This thread had me thinking... I'd assume the Ridgewood PD could tell you if it is active or not.
  2. Right here. I'm undertrained, but my PPQ M1 makes me "fleas off a dogs ass" good at 25 yards.
  3. I went down the same path last year. My dad is 81, arthritis in the hand, old torn rotator cuff, quad bypass,etc... but otherwise healthy. I wanted to find the softest shooting gun I could manage for under $1,000 so he could handle 100 rounds without pain. I scoured the used racks until I found a Remington 1100 LT-20. I even got a slip-on recoil pad to size the pull for him. What a smoooooooooth shooting gun! So, we practiced on weekends for a few months and he did alright with the LT-20. One day I brought out a Stoeger STF3000 (Dick's special version of the Condor). $300 gun, nice lockup. Now he smokes'em and won't shoot anything else! A bad back is a balance issue. I'd suggest a Montefeltro in 12ga with a slip on recoil pad. Happy shooting!
  4. Welcome to the club! I got my TX CHL near Houston and got printed in Midland. Once I completed the process, TX sent my card in the 6-8 weeks they promised. Even funnier, I updated my address and got my TX card in 2 weeks. It took NJ over 7 weeks to update my FPID.

    Cite please? By that standard, all the cabins at Boy Scout camp should be condemned.
  6. This is not apples-to-apples, but CT is going after $9MM. http://www.guns.com/2017/02/10/ct-gov-malloy-wants-to-up-pistol-permit-background-check-fees/
  7. 2C:39-9d. No manufacturing of ANY weapon.

    Land is not depreciable, but I like where you're going.
  9. My father is a Fair Lawn resident and they told him ONLY residents can be members there. I'm a GR resident, so we just joined Cherry Ridge instead.
  10. Boo. Make Jokes Great Again!

    I like this thread! Y'all need to take a vacation on a couple acres of west Texas ranch land.
  12. Just a clarification, Sig now owns GSG.

    Man, two buckets? That's some high living!
  14. Redford's character in Captain America: Winter Soldier was an evil "gov't control everything" guy who wanted to use flying aircraft carriers to kill people by the millions who opposed their authoritarian regime. Sounds like an easy role for him. I'll watch anything with Chris Pratt. http://www.businessinsider.com/chris-pratt-has-gun-arsenal-2014-8
  15. Same here, my father and I joined last weekend. We spent the rest of the morning at the plinker range ringing steel with 22. Another new member even let me try out his rifle when I asked how he liked it! After years of shooting indoors at BulletHole, it is just GREAT to get outside. When I showed my wife a photo of the 200yd range, all she said was "And this is New Jersey?! Cool".
  16. Just to be clear, do you mean literally soaked in motor oil? I got a dry bolt and not sure how to prep it.
  17. The Cub Scout had me shooting BB at 7yo, then Boy Scouts had me shooting .22 bolt rifle and 20ga pump at 11yo. Each time touching a gun was highly structured and involved the requisite safety brief before and during shooting. Like you, I have 2 boys under three years old. I bought a few 22's recently for when they get older (at least, that's how I explain the new guns to my wife). In the meantime, I think it's my fatherly duty to keep all of "their" guns in good functioning order until they get old enough.
  18. You need to dump your insurance and go with Grundy. I don't have those restrictions on my '93 vette and premium is $250.
  19. Just to bury the point, there are 6 so-called "evil features" and you're allow to have a maximum of 1. - pistol grip - flash hider - bayonet lug - threaded barrel - folding/collapsable stock - grenade launcher
  20. Welcome from Glen Rock. We have great Taylor Ham!
  21. I'm not sure what the above exchange has to do with car registration, but it sure underscores the convoluted "gotta know somebody" environment that causes so many problems in this state. I have PBA cards but never asked for them. I also do my best to follow the law or speak up in court when they work improperly against me. That reminds me, time to write my legislators to complain about the $65 registration if there will be no inspection to fund.
  22. I'm still trying to figure of what my $65 motorcycle registration goes toward...
  23. It looked to me that the frame along the rails is the same size for both "compact" and "full-size". As for grip, it look like an extended magazine provided the extra size there.
