Ibejiheads coated bullets in NJ
I'm really looking forward to trying them. 1,000 bullets is a really small order, but Alex treated me like I was a frequent customer. Prices are very good even if they're shipped, but being located within driving distance is a great benefit.

Ibejiheads coated bullets in NJ
I've been curious about coated bullets for a while so I've been searching the web and forums for reviews on good brands to try. To my (pleasant) surprise I found that Ibejiheads coated bullets received lots of positive reviews from different places and they're manufactured in Belleville NJ. I called the contact number on their website and spoke with Alex the owner about ordering some 9mm and .45 acp bullets. They don't operate a retail space, but since Belleville is close to where I work he arranged for me to pick the bullets up from the warehouse. Both Alex and the guy I met at the warehouse are really nice and the transaction was fantastic. I only got 500 of each to test the water with coated bullets, so I'll let you know how they work for me. Glad to be able to support a local business.

Cabela's has Aguila minishells in stock
I don't use the mini-buck, but I use the mini-slugs and bird shot in my KSG (and single-shot in a Browning A5). I mainly use them for my wife and kids to get them used to shooting a shotgun. Shooting clays is more fun for them when they don't have to worry about recoil. Same for punching paper with mini-slugs. Like most others they are not in the rotation for self-defense rounds...

NICS issues
I guess it depends on where the severs are located? If they're housed somewhere in NJ and there's a power outage they may not be able to keep the datacenter fully operational. My FFL told me that there have been significant delays since the Florida shooting. He submitted a request for me last week and it took over 7 hours to process.

Local PD called and asked what gun I bought, is it normal?
My town contacted my employer for my initial FID (but not for subsequent purchase permits) and that kind of pissed me off as well. I work for a massive multi-national organization so the request was routed to a senior partner who had to call and discuss our company "firearm policy" with me. Fortunately I knew him well and he's a Boy Scout leader, so he appreciates responsible firearms ownership, but I can only imagine what would have happened if it was someone with a axe to grind. Ironically they now know me so well that for my last permit request they didn't even check with my references and I had the permits in 3 weeks.

Thanks for sharing. Do they ship ammo to NJ??

Under 21 lawsuits begin
It will be interesting to see how that one goes. If a baker has to sell a cake to a gay couple even though they refused on religious basis, one would presume that Dick's and WalMart would be compelled to sell to the 20 year old. The way court cases drag on it will probably be a moot point as the kid will turn 21 by the time there's a verdict, but I'm still interested in the outcome.

26 FID question
Glad to hear it. Sounds like an easy one to clear up IMO. I would have answered "no" with a clean conscience if I was in your situation, but that's just me.

26 FID question
Unless there's something you're not telling us, there's noting at that link that remotely applies to you what you've posted. Were you forced to go to counseling by the courts? Were the police involved in a domestic dispute that ended in counseling? Couples counseling is not a mental condition.

26 FID question
"(26) Have you ever been attended, treated or observed by any doctor or psychiatrist or at any hospital or mental institution on an inpatient or outpatient basis for any mental or psychiatric condition? If yes, give the name and location of the doctor, psychiatrist, hospital or institution and the date(s) of such occurrence." If you weren't examined for a mental condition then you should have put "No". Couples counseling is not a mental condition. Unless there's something else to your story that you're not telling us I'm baffled as to why you would even think about answering "Yes". Now that you've opened the can of worms you have to deal with it.

Buy .22 pistol or get a .22 conversion slide??
Thanks all. I appreciate the feedback. Valid arguments for both, so I may just do a wait and see and grab whichever comes available first.

Trump Morning Tweet
I agree. I think that's a big reason they're making a media circus out of these high school kids and turning them into minor celebrities. They're hoping that when they turn 18 the kids will still be on fire and turn out to vote against anyone who received money from the NRA.

Trump Morning Tweet
Politics, politics, politics. Democrats and liberals are still stinging from the loss to Trump and the fact that he's had some success so far. They've been clinging to the Russian collusion thread in hopes that it will help in mid-term and the next Presidential election, but they've been desperate for something better. Now they think they have it. They have immediately cast the NRA as the enemy, so they are already "outing" anyone who has received campaign contributions from the NRA and will directly target them in negative advertising. Since they don't have any platform of their own to run on they will make gun control their sole focus.

Best double-up hearing protection combo?
Glad there's some improvement. Honestly I think the best thing for you would be to keep things as quiet as possible. Outside of work keep everything as soft as possible. Turn off the radio in the car, no TV or music at home, etc. Hell, wear some earmuffs when you get home from work and just read books for a week or two. Be as aggressive as possible keeping things quiet.

Buy .22 pistol or get a .22 conversion slide??
Thanks for sharing. Based on internet postings the AA kit was my top choice so it's good to hear someone validate that it functions well.

Dog not eating question...
I have a 1 year old goldendoodle (about 50 pounds) and we've always given her Performatrim Ultra from Pet Valu - http://us.petvalu.com/products/dog/food?brand=4&home=0&no_cache=true&p=2#!/no_cache=true&p=clear&brand=4 She has solid poop every time. We feed her twice a day (and put some cooked chicken or beef in at dinner time) and she's never complained. We like it because it's limited ingredients and limited grains.

Buy .22 pistol or get a .22 conversion slide??
I don't currently own a .22 pistol, but a couple of kids (already rifle shooters) are interested in shooting pistols, so I want to pick up something that they can start with without worrying about recoil, and I think it would help my pistol technique as well (and maybe get me started in some friendly Bullseye shooting at the range). With that in mind I was considering getting a .22 conversion slide for either my EAA Witness (full sized stainless) or my Glock G17. The logic there is that I don't need a purchase permit, and the transition back to the standard calibers (.45 and 9mm) would be more familiar on the same frame. Cost on the conversion kit would be about $200 - $250 for the witness and $300+/- for the Glock. However after looking around online it looks like there are some good .22 pistols that I can get for the same price as the conversions slide, so it would be easier to just get one of those and be able to have someone shoot the .22 while someone else is shooting the others. Anyone have experience with both?? Ultimately it's a win-win as either option achieves the goal, so I won't be offended with differing views (though I'm currently leaning towards a dedicated pistol chambered in .22) Thanks!

How long ago did this happen? If you had a (successful) hearing test and the Dr (not nurse) saw no tear in the eardrum then I'm not really sure what you're looking for.
