From Deminski & Doyle: http://nj1015.com/nj-needs-practical-solutions-for-residents-to-arm-themselves I don't know if I agree with their "walk before you run" stance, but I appreciate that at least they discuss gun ownership intelligently.

I'm a fan of #SweeneyCONCEALS Something else to consider is breaking up the phrases, for example #Sweeney #CCW or #Hypocrite #Sweeney. That way tweets calling him out show up in all searches made on "Sweeney". ETA: lf people tweet at @nj1015 and @ChasingNews they might pick up the story.

-- whoops, double

1 million+ NJ gun owners should be able to get a hashtag to trend statewide, and there isn't any way for him to block that.

Welcome And yes, the wait is normal (sadly).

They don't want LEO vouching for someone? You'd think that would be the best type of reference in their eyes. Please tell me what town this is because I will NEVER move there willingly. Below is a link to the online form. References are #29. Show me where it says "subject to local sheriff's restrictions" on there. http://www.njsp.org/firearms/pdf/sts-033.pdf

The application (STS-033) says "Names, Addresses and Telephone Numbers of two reputable persons who are presently acquainted with the applicant, other than relatives." It says nothing about references being from the same town or in-state. That's select sheriffs' offices creating undue burden if you ask me, but I'm no lawyer…

Wait a second… are you saying you didn't have to pay $20 to process form 212A ?

I've used a PA reference on every one of my applications without problem. I don't believe re-using references speeds up the process any, except maybe they can fill out the forms faster since they've seen them before.

Yes, photo (1) and fingerprints are needed for Florida CCW.

It seems criminal to waste one considering the time (what's the average, 60+ days?), effort (of multiple parties, for example, one's references) and expense ($20 for the criminal background check + $2 per permit in my town) to obtain them. It's going to be the same thing with ammo if they institute a NICS check for each purchase. I don't think I would buy anything less than 1000 rounds if I had to pay a $15 fee each time.

The Fiber Fix ad is from the same guys that brought the world the Rainbow Pooping Unicorn: Marketing—they're doing it right.

I don't have firsthand experience with any of them, but check the pinned thread: http://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/81307-inventory-of-known-firearms-lawyers/

Thanks for the link to the wall drill. I have snap caps, but no holster. It didn't seem all that necessary when I purchased my firearm because a) NJ, and b) I think the range I shoot at doesn't allow holster draw (though I may have to double-check that the next time I'm there as I can't find mention now on the website). Care to recommend a specific class/place? I've found a number of classes online, but from where I sit it's a lot of ad copy. Recommendations are always preferable to marketing. (Quick side note: Am I the only one who finds it annoying that a lot of places won't list pricing? I realize that variables are involved and not all classes are created equal, but even a general price range would be preferable to "please contact us". ) The NRA website is currently designed to funnel everything through courses, starting with a required "Phase One" which seems redundant to the "Basic Pistol" I already took at GFH. If there's a list of coaches, I can't find it…

(i.e. what to do after a basic pistol course) What would forum members recommend as the next step in improving technique/accuracy? I had a rather frustrating session at the range this weekend and I think I'm at the limit as far as self-correction goes. Instructor/class recommendations? Extra points if they're in Monmouth County.

Welcome

Another Welcome from Monmouth County

There are two coming up in New Brunswick: Aug 18 2016 | 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm Aug 31 2016 | 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm It would be awesome if Nappen was going to be at one, but I called to ask and as of 8/12/2016 neither date has speakers listed. They say you can do walk-ins for the seminars, though they greatly prefer advance registration.

Does anyone know if it's the same seminar the night before in New Brunswick?

I wonder if I'm remembering the right thing… was it really shiny? I'll credit our friend, who started this all by placing a Beretta 92FS in my hands.

How he voted on justifiable need: A3689 - Handgun, need to carry-codifies reg. Assembly - 06/16/2016 - 3RDG FINAL PASSAGE - Yes I don't see his vote recorded (online) for ACR175. I wonder if his wife's driving was his inspiration for A1908?

From the nj.com article: Emphasis is mine. The people who study these statistics for a living are flat out saying it's unlikely to be effective, and in nj, this new law would be redundant. We already have laws against calling and texting while driving (N.J. Statute. 39:4-97.3). Wisniewski seems to have a thing for traffic law since he has also sponsored a bill "Creat{ing} new motor vehicle offense of engaging in a pattern of aggressive Driving." (A1050) We have Carteret Borough, Perth Amboy City, Sayreville Borough, South Amboy City and Woodbridge Township (District 19), and Bayonne and most of Jersey City (District 31) to thank for voting in Wisniewski and Chiaravalloti (co-sponsor). Those districts have been solidly democratic for decades, but maybe once they start getting handed $200 tickets for their lattes they'll realize voting down the party line is not such a great idea. Then again, maybe not. They kept Wisniewski even though he's pro camera-ticketing.
