Sniper

How about in the case of a second beach home, where you spend all Summer at the shore. Can you have your handgun there? Is that considered your "home" regarding legal possession? Yep, that's why I asked, it's tough to legally find out. Plus, it would depend on what state you're traveling through too. If I'm sitting in a campground in my "portable home", and some nutcase breaks in to try and steal something or harm us, can I legally protect me and wifey, or do I become an instant felon for carrying away from home in a "vehicle"? Questions, questions.. (Hopefully the campground has a range, then I'll be good ).

OK, a little thread drift, but wondering what the Brain Trust feels about this situation. Legally, we can keep a handgun in our homes for personal defense but not in our cars. What if your home is an RV? If I take an extended trip in a motorhome, that becomes my "home" for that time period, since it has all the amenities that my house has (heat, a bathroom, kitchen, sleeping area, etc.). So, if you get pulled over in a motorhome (your temporary home) and have your handgun hidden for protection and a cop finds out, is this a felony of illegal transportation?

If anyone wants to get a "flavor" of the articles she writes at APP, here is her link. She seems to cover a lot of different subjects under the "Jersey Mayhem" section. https://www.app.com/staff/10052538/katie-park/

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but the APP has shown it's true "stripes" regarding this topic. I would love to see a non-biased article written in it, but based on past performance, I have my doubts. I personally wouldn't give a interview unless I could get a guarantee to approve the article before it's published. I wonder which editor at APP gets the final word on the content? What actually amazes me about the APP is that it is primarily a Monmouth and Ocean paper, which are more Repub counties, and Middlesex that leans Dem, but the APP still decides to push it's left leaning liberal articles. I wonder when they'll finally figure that piece out?

I'm wondering the same thing. Has anyone added one to their safe yet? Any thoughts? I'm looking for a 9mm carbine, and the PC Carbine is on the list, one major reason, I can use my existing SR9 mags.... that's a plus. Also looking at the CZ Scorpion, but then again, will require new mags. I'll really getting tired of buying new mags for any new "present". The last one on my list is a Wilson Combat AR9. I should just pull the trigger and get it, even though the price is up there. After all, I'm worth it (at least that's what I tell my wife).

4 days of food is considered "prepared"?? Keeping 4 days worth is an excessive amount to keep on hand?? I'm still shocked... even more now....

Wait, there was a least a day or two notice that this storm was going to be bad. Your neighbors don't have a least a few days worth of food in their house to survive situations like this? I'm shocked... How is that even acceptable in this day and age?

I'm near the shore, South of you. Our power stayed on the whole time, the neighborhood has underground utilities, so that apparently helps.

How many teachers are young males carrying a AR15, a bunch of mags and a wearing a tactical vest in the hallways?

Is that a Husky pup?

I went with Pet Plan for my new pup. First time I ever took out insurance on a pet. But, I have a lot invested in this little dude, so I figured, why not. (https://www.gopetplan.com/) I looked at a couple different companies, but this one allows you to pick the deductible, yearly allowance and reimbursement percentage. I'm concerned only with the big hit medical episodes. I'll cover the small ones out of pocket. Already had one emergency visit to Red Bank on a Saturday night, so my deductible is covered for the rest of the year.

I saw this quick statement in another news release: Gee, I wonder what will happen to sales now???

House Democrats have introduced a bill banning semi-automatic firearms in the wake of the Feb. 14 shooting at a high school in Parkland, Fla. Rep. David Cicilline, D-R.I., announced Monday he is introducing the Assault Weapons Ban of 2018. More than 150 Democrats have signed on in support of the legislation, Rep. Ted Deutch, D-Fla., said "Today I joined @RepCicilline and 150+ of my colleagues to introduce the assault weapons ban. It’s time for Congress to listen to the will of a majority of Americans and pass sensible legislation to get these weapons of war off our streets. #NeverAgain #MSDStrong," Deutch tweeted. The bill prohibits the “sale, transfer, production, and importation” of semi-automatic rifles and pistols that can hold a detachable magazine, as well as semi-automatic rifles with a magazine that can hold more than 10 rounds. Additionally, the legislation bans the sale, transfer, production, and importation of semi-automatic shotguns with features such as a pistol grip or detachable stock, and ammunition feeding devices that can hold more than 10 rounds. Cicilline’s legislation names 205 specific firearms that are prohibited, including the AK-47 and AR-15. “Assault weapons were made for one purpose,” Cicilline said in a statement. “They are designed to kill as many people as possible in a short amount of time. They do not belong in our communities.” Deutch vowed during a CNN town hall last week to introduce a bill banning semi-automatic weapons. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/house-democrats-introduce-bill-prohibiting-sale-of-semi-automatic-weapons/article/2650087 Link to Press Release: https://cicilline.house.gov/press-release/cicilline-introduces-assault-weapons-ban-2018

It's even crazier than that. Take Florida as example. They want to push the age to purchase a rifle to 21 because of responsibility, but they have no problem turning a 16 year old kid loose by himself in a 3000 - 4000 lb. vehicle on the street. Since vehicle deaths have risen over 40,000 a year (many from texting and driving), we should ban Smartphones until the age of 21 too! It's for the children.

Sorry to dredge up an old thread, couldn't find a current one. Anyone have any feedback on these CCW/defense policies. I've been dragging my feet but want to move forward and get one, on the rare chance I'll need to protect the homestead. These policies seem to cover both CCW outside or any use of a gun inside the home. Some companies I've seen: CCWSafe, CarryGuard by the NRA, Second Call, Any others, or anyone have input on any of those?

Exactly, nobody joined for the discounts. The negative PR will hurt these companies more for showing their "politics". I just don't get why these companies stick their noses into these politically sensitive issues? They immediately turn off HALF their customer base in the country. Idiots!

With my little dude above, the next step is some specialized training, so hopefully I can get him to stand up in a defense posture, when needed, like this:

"Eat the children", you had to remind me. I was looking to get a Level 3 Belgian Shepard, but my kids told me if I did, they wouldn't bring my grandkids around, because of the fear the dog would eat them. So, I had to go with Plan B, another Lab. This is what I ended up with. Looks really mean and scary, doesn't he?

No, any discussion regarding banning hardware is nonsense, when anyone with critical thinking skills knows the problem is behind the trigger, a defective person willing to kill another person. It really doesn't get any simpler than that. Thinking that an inanimate object is the cause of these shootings and just thinking that banning a particular model firearm will solve the problem, is simply nuts. Writing NEW laws and banning hardware will NEVER stop the next shooter. NEVER. True dat. After the first murder, every one after that is free.

No luck, smart strategy. Actually what happens is that if the house gets listed on the MLS, potential buyers will find it first, and if they like what they see, they'll pressure the agent they are working with to show the house. The buyer's agent will make close to their normal commission, so there's no reason for them to object to it. There was no shortage of people interested in seeing the house, there were just pissed of listing agents that didn't get the deal. The other big piece of that in both instances, I decided to list the house higher than both listing agents wanted to. Had I listened to them, I would have listed it lower AND gave them 2.5% for screwing me plus 2.5% to the buyer's agent. I know how to play the game correctly. Yes, if it was legal when I bought it, it will always be legal in my book. It IS the principle of the matter.

Exactly, case in point, look at the response to any major shooting, it ties up LEO for a complete county. A few targeted groups of Patriots spread out could handcuff any available LEO or military in a big area. Plus, talking of a standing army, anyone know how many hunting licenses are issued every year in the country? Hint: It's YYUUGGE. If just 10% of these guys showed up to fight, any of the .Gov forces wouldn't stand a chance.

I have a CX4, it's my favorite of my long guns. I have it in .40. Now looking for a AR9 variant, considering getting another CX4 in 9mm, or maybe a Wilson Combat AR9.

Here's a tip, use a Flat Fee MLS listing agent, will cost you $300 - $400 to list it and get it on MLS. Regular listing agents are useless. Offer a 2.5% commission to buyer's agent, you'll have no shortage of potential buyers coming through. Will save you a ton of money (3.5%). I've sold two houses this way. You can thank me later.

Does the NRA still have that much pull? There's over 100 million gun owners in the country but only 5 million NRA members. Yeah, I wasn't sure what to expect, but much of what he said was accurate. But, I don't expect much of it to be repeated on CNN or MSNBC to their viewers.
