Peace to all and my advise is to buy buy buy before the election. I'm in the process of selling off some property just to stockpile so I can shoot whatever I want the rest of my life.I am blessed in my life to open my front door and sit on my deck and shoot endlessly off my railing. One of the reasons I left NJ was a 2nd amendment issue and friends and relatives told me I was an idiot moving just so I could shoot my guns. Oh well after 12+ years I am a good idiot and love every second of it!

Really line for line they are nearly the same, both leftwing NY Liberals. I make my decision on three things. God, this includes their faith and such things as abortion. Both are clueless, Hillary an atheist and tRump says he's never asked God for forgiveness. He then can not be a Christian.Both support late term abortion up to the third trimester. Second Amendment. Both are for gun control, tRump's been anti-gun up until he decided to run as a republican. We know Hillary's stance. Debt/Economy. Hillary will just keep spending and double the debt. tRump will run the country like his businesses and also keep spending, Only difference he just can't screw the middle class blue collar worker and file bankruptcy, he said the government will pay for health ins for all, this will cost trillions. Nothing he says economically will work or make a lick of sense as the government goes. Can't just fleece the county like he did with dozens of companies and pocket money, Can't file bankruptcy and write off Trillions in debt, don't work that way and he will also double the debt. He said he would eliminate it in 8 years he has now back tracked on that I see a third party vote coming or write myself in. I have voted in every election since my first in 1980 but will never ever again vote for the lesser of two evils. I am a conservative not a republican and the R's screwed me\us with the 2014 midterms by doing nothing but supporting oBlamer the last two years.

He's been anti-gun his entire life up til a few yrs ago when he was thinking of running for POTUS. He's now mentioned Giuliani for VP or HLS and Christie for Attorney General. Can you get any more anti-gun then these two? I will start stocking up now. tRump may be the reason for the next biggest surge of gun sales in history. Personally I think Hillary will wipe the floor with him and pretty easily. She will march thousands of folk he screwed over the years just for him to make more money, it will be relentless.

Yup and the tRump is talking Christie and Guilliani for some cabinet positions. Just can't get anti-gun enough could he! I see another buying frenzy coming. Along with his support for an assault weapons ban, oh well!

I was including tRump, he's nothing more than a LeftWing NY Liberal who was buds with BooBberg during his gun grabbing days. My holdout was Cruz but it's not looking good for him today.

I think we are screwed anyway, 3 of 4 of our candidate's are for at the very least an assault weapons ban no matter what they say today!

I will tell ya I do believe there is a BIG CRASH coming! Most rich folk are making millions off the stock market now it's all paper money making things look better then it is, no substance all government support(propping up). Housing is still slow even with record low mortgage rates. Housing should be booming with such low int. rates. Nearly half of all new jobs are min. wage part time jobs. Salaries have been stagnate for years leaving no money for new homeowners. U.R. is much higher than shown, closer to 10%+, record number of folk stop looking so they don't count. In the past when things got tough the government lowered interest rates, well they're basically near zero now, More have what little money they have in the market because it cost money to have a savings account today so ALL their money will be lost. Record number have no retirement due to stagnant wages. With the debt so high there will be NO STIMULUS with the next crash, no money or even paper left worth anything to much debt. The next crash is coming soon. Why is OPEC still pumping oil with such low prices? They are stockpiling cash for some reason? This one I haven't figured out yet.

It's his businesses so yes he is at fault. It's ideology and it trickles down. As far as hiring immigrants in his hotels he is still doing it. So next I will here he wasn't behind the bankruptcies of his own companies that screwed thousands while he made millions just not to pay HIS bills. OOPS he already tried saying it wasn't him. LOL

Trump has been a leftwing liberal on nearly every issue the last 50 years until he decided to run for POTUS why do you think he would nominate a conservative judge? Remember how many times he has said he is the great negotiator.

Personally I think it's already to late for the republican party! They have lost to many conservatives forever and this includes me. I will never ever vote for a candidate like McCain just because there's a R next to their name, I'm DONE! They need a new party or this one needs to put several old men out to pasture. It was the CONSERVATIVES who GAVE the republicans the house and senate in 2014 and the likes of McConnell, Boehner and McCain just to name a few SCREWED US big time. In over two years now they have done NOTHING but coddle the likes of oBlamer!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you think Trump is a conservative that's part of the problem, best he can hope for is a RINO tag. He gave us Reid, Hillary, Pelosi and Cuomo the most lib gov in the country. Remember Bloomberg and Trump were best buds during his gun grabbing mayoral days. Sorry I will write in a conservative, myself or sit home.

Just curious because I never get a straight answer from a Trump supporter. Nearly every poll shows him losing to Hillary so why do you think he will beat her not even taking into consideration that many of the 35% he has now are Hillary supporters and are voting for Trump because he is the easiest to beat? Trump has never ever been pro 2nd amendment until he decided to run for POTUS, in fact he is on record being in favor of the assault weapons ban any search will show this pretty easily. One more if he is so strong on illegals why did he hire them and why does he still hire immigrants when there are qualified Americans in his hotels?

I don't understand why the Trump supporters are upset and connect the RNC with the government and the will of the people? We can start with that as far as the RNC and their people....... 65% do not want Trump, that's a fact so your argument is kind of silly. Next the RNC is it's own private party so to speak. They are not the government! You or Trump can start your own party and call it whatever you wish to. The only time your vote is connected to the government is during the general election and you can vote for anyone you wish from Trump to pol pot. Then you are voting for a representative to vote for you anyway. I think there is no doubt Trump never ever thought he would get this far and was/is in it to destroy the RNC for the Clintons. Remember folks he supported Clinton for YEARS, donated to her for YEARS, even saying she would be a GREAT POTUS, supported Reid, Pelosi, Cuomo the most liberal governor in the country and said he don't even want republicans in his state, he admitted several times he aligns more with the democrats. Just my thoughts is all and I do not consider myself a republican but a conservative. Thanks all.

I at first looked at Trump but soon after said no way, His bankruptcies have cost thousands of blue collar jobs, lost healthcare as well as lost retirements while he made millions. When he didn't pay the small contractor in A/C who do ya think that hurt? He rails about Illegals and borders yet he hires Illegals, he whines about jobs then hires immigrants, he complains about companies outsourcing and does the same thing with his clothing line. No one knows his stance on the assault weapons ban because he was for it his entire life until he decided to run for president then changed his mind, really. He was for abortion right up until 3rd trimester too. This is no republican and surely no conservative. On work visas he changed his mind twice in the same debate then changed it afterward in a tweet all within 5 minutes. He supported Reid, Pelosi, Clintoon as well as Cuomo the most liberal gov in the country. His NY values and liberal friends gave ya a socialist mayor in delblassio. He's a fake!

One of the most relaxing places in the world to me. Music and good food everyplace, bars all on street level. Love it. Headed back in August. I have some friends there and they are fearful now of stories of big business buying property and setting up shuttles to Cuba. I hope not because we all know progress usually kills everything!

No arguments here! When I left NJ 12 yrs ago it was one of three places, western NC, Fla or Oklahoma. I was a single dad of a 6 yr old and 11 yr old at the time so there was some other considerations. I put a deposit on a house in New Port Richie and the deal fell thru on the other end and I landed in W NC and love it. Just the ins. and tax burden relieve is worth it. As you said my taxes in Jackson $8,000.00 for an average middle class home on 2.5 acresI build with my own hands. I have the same size home here and today pay $350.00 a year. Auto insurance when I left over $3000.00 here today three vehicle not two I am paying $512.00 a year. Food the same but I grow all my own veggies and have farms all around me so much cheaper. I have health issues and live within 20 miles of one of the best hospitals in the state for my problem. The greatest advantage for us on this board is at around 6 months I walked into the local sheriff's department on a tuesday and thursday had a P2P. After the deputy convinced me that if I had a carry permit I wouldn't need a P2P I applied and with 6 weeks was done. But better than that I was asked about any DV and I told him I was a victim and had a PRO issued in NJ, he not only told me it would be honored in the entire state of NC but I was issued a temporary emergency concealed handgun permit. Some counties in NJ would not honor a RO from county to county. I do spend a lot of time in Fla now that the kids are grown and am selling my house and will either land in Key West or outside the traffic of the Clearwater area. I do know anyplace in the Keys food is out of control but it's expected with everything getting hauled it. Good luck to all in their future choices!

Thank you for your brave service sir. I am not a NJ resident any longer but if you had an organization (keep your name anonymous) start a funding page someplace and a handful of ya filed a lawsuit I as well as many others outside NJ would surely donate! But as far as NJ goes if our service personal can't carry on base in the US I doubt they would allow you to carry in the safe street of most of NJ.

I was being a wise ass about Christie.

Ok here's a question for ya's. If NJ law says 30 days why hasn't a group gotten together to fight this. Only a few dollars from all the gun owners would probably be enough? Would the legislators just rewrite the law, possibly but at least with the 8 years you had this pro gun governor Christie he would surely have vetoed any change of it becoming law. I also went to a lawyer in TR way back in the early 90's and he is the one who said they would just change the law not waste my money, it wasn't my idea. He is now a liberal superior court judge.

While living in NJ I had a PDP expunged at the rate of $1200.00 and it was a waste of time. In NJ it always came up and I just had to explain it away and was always OK. I put it on my forums here in NC and was told it never came up and was told if it wasn't a felony not to put it on any paperwork again and I have had my CCP issued 3 times with no problem. Looks like NJ must be looking in places they shouldn't be. Mine was also terrorist threats that was made up by a Judge in Monmouth county with a criminal record. Seems to be the go to charge when there is nothing else. Good Luck.

Definitely an increase here in NC but time hasn't really mattered. 1st time I applied for my Carry permit it took exactly 6 weeks, 1st renew took 6 weeks, 2nd renewal just last year they say expect a little longer 8-10 weeks and it took exactly 6 weeks. From what I have heard P2P is still 2-3 days a week at the longest and if you have a carry permit you just walk in and walk out no waiting or checks. Henderson County has seen an increase of 153 percent rise over the last 4 years.

WOW this is amazing. I never realized how long the waits were when I lived in NJ. Lived in Jackson most of my adult life and I whined about 4-6 weeks. Living here in NC we are blessed with no such BS. If you have a carry permit (good for 5 years) you just walk in buy your gun and walk out. If not 2-3 days is about normal for a handgun purchase permit. Haven't had to get one in over 10 years so that may be longer now.

I just unfriended a friend I had since I was a kid. We grew up a few streets from each other in Ocean County. He is a gun enthusiast but comes here to NC to buy his ammo and long arms. I was talking to a fellow NRA member here about upping my membership and he was here shooting in my yard. He continued to say what a waste of money it was. I kindly asked him to pack up and leave and lose my number. This was in August of 2015 and he has called me at least 12 times wanting to come down and visit(Shoot) and is looking for a new rifle. I have not answered his calls once and will not. Unfortunately many gun owners in NJ are just stuck in the liberal NJ mindset even though they own guns.

I have this argument all the time, for some reason folks think that pro gun legislation just pops up from no place. I have several friends in NJ who make fun of me when I bring up the NRA yet they whine endlessly about the gun control problems.

Been out of NJ for a while so I am ignorant to many of the new laws. You mean you need to show your FIDC just to by ammo? What if you go to Pa and buy ammo and get pulled over in NJ with ammo are you guilty of a crime? How about reloading supplies? Do you need a card also for brass, bullets, primers and powders?
