  1. Very nice! Best of luck to you using it...........and finding ammo for it
  2. You're right, if the previous owner didn't take care of the vehicle, over 100k might be a nightmare. I have a 1999 Jeep Cherokee with over 250k miles. Runs great, no major (or minor) problems. If your job takes you out in all kinds of weather, I'd recommend a Jeep. But that's just me.
  3. My sister used Dr. Pirelli's services. Dr Pirelli is not only a psychologist but an M.D. as well. For $2,500, you are personally evaluated by him or someone on his staff. That evaluation takes about 3 1/2 hours. In addition, they interview friends and family. Finally, you will receive a comprehensive report with a upfront summary that, in my sister's case, was 12 pages. When submitting it to the PD, the detective commented that the report was detailed and well-written.
  4. The last democrat I voted for was Harrison Williams...........and look what happened to him
  5. Although CT is listed as a "may issue" state, if you meet the requirements they will issue you one. As a "non-resident" it took 3 months to process my permit. However, you have to be careful when navigating their regulations. https://portal.ct.gov/DESPP/Division-of-State-Police/Special-Licensing-and-Firearms/Special-Licensing-and-Firearms
  6. Four to five months is about the time it takes for any approved paperwork to get back to me.....and I deal with a state police barracks. The Rumson Police Department is the agency you have to deal with on this issue. ("If your question pertains to an application submitted to a municipal Police Department, please contact them for information and assistance. Your municipal Police Department is the only agency that can update, modify or approve your application.") https://www.njsp.org/firearms/index.shtml. Next, I would try speaking to the mayor if you think he (or she) might be sympathetic to your cause. If that doesn't work, try your congressional representative.
  7. My first thought was "WHERE is this store at?" And then I realized.................
  8. I have doing some research on the MAS 49/56 rifle for a few weeks now and may purchase one in the right condition. Detachable magazines seem to be available, however, ammo (7.5mm French) is not. I wonder if anyone has any experience firing this rifle and, if yes, what is your source for ammo. Although it has a rifle grenade launcher, I'm certain that it can be made NJ compliant. I'd have to find an FFL to do that work. The FFL I normally use does not perform NJ compliant work. Any other comments would be welcome.
  9. Welcome to the forum!
  10. dilbert1967 replied to ryan_j's topic in NJ Prepared
    That is VERY nice. How difficult will it be to hoist it into position?
  11. I've been here over three years. Started out on the forums on ConcealedCarry.com. Few people there have an understanding of what the laws are like in this state. As time went on, fewer people were posting, and when I left, there were only 1 or 2 active threads in the NJ forum section. When I signed up here, I started following the thread tracking city/township requirements/paperwork to get a FID card. I was amazed at the number of people that had to wait for a P2P. I thought I held the record: 5 1/2 months. Some else came in at six months (LOL). This has been very educational for me and I hope it continues. P.S. I didn't notice this thread until today.
  12. Count yourself to be fortunate. Even with the new system in place, some people still wait 3 - 4 months to get their paperwork back.
  13. If he doesn't, then he left a long time ago.
  14. Retirees can only accessed the base on Saturdays unless you are also employed as a DOD civilian or contractor. All of the barbershops, beauty and nail salons are closed. Nearly all MWR activities are closed except billeting. The PX is open.
  15. He was just re-elected last year.
  16. I like "dropped out of a helicopter" myself then they can see it coming.
  17. Another source for gun ownership is the Crime Prevention Research Center run by Dr. John Lott. They have taken a lot of the bias out of the equation when running a survey. Even if people, who answer the survey, know who Dr. Lott is, they will still be reluctant to give an honest answer. After all, the government doesn't need to know what they have. The Center's concealed carry report comes out every September. https://crimeresearch.org/2018/03/problems-with-using-the-general-social-survey-to-measure-gun-ownership/
  18. A product made by the Taylor Provisions Company, Trenton, NJ
  19. Welcome to the forum. All three guns are very popular. I don't own a Glock but their solid reputation speaks for itself. I've had a Taurus PT 99 for 25 years and has been very reliable. It has a lifetime warranty. I don't you could go wrong with any type of Ruger. I own three and they're built like tanks. Ultimately, it will come down to what feels good to you and how well you can shoot it.
  20. So much for the reliability of the pollster. It seems difficult to get reliable and "sourced" news in this state. Save Jersey is a blog, the guy that runs it is a practicing attorney. All of the large newspapers swing to the left. The only "fair" news outlet that comes to mind is NJ 101.5. I'll check out "The Patch".
  21. That will be a daunting task. The people of NJ prefer to be sheep. The article below says it all. I don't' know how reliable the pollster is but a 71% approval rating will be difficult to overcome. https://savejersey.com/2020/04/poll-64-of-new-jerseyans-support-publicly-shaming-social-distance-violators/
