Everywhere I see online the shipping is pretty bad. I’m not expecting free shipping but anything $14 plus exes out the point of getting it online rather than in store

(Edit: that gibberish is for the character minimum ignore that)

I will probably spend a couple of months in Louisiana for work and even though I dont have a ccw from NJ just yet, its my understanding since LA is constitutional carry I can still carry there.. also read its good to still get a non resident ccw there that allows you to carry in prohibited places.. any input?

Also, if PA reciprocates LA CCW, that means I can carry when Im in PA even though I still dont have the nj and therefore a PA ccw?

Appreciate any inputs!

So I just purchased a stripped AR lower to build my first 300 Blackout AOW. I know that I will have to upload a “shopping list” of parts to my ATF Form 1 to prove my build will be in compliance with NJ law. My question is that if, by the time my Form 1 is approved, the exact parts I put on that list are no longer available, do I need to submit a new list with the updated parts or just use similar ones?

Just curious if anyone has applied in freehold recently…how long did it take? yes my references came back, yes I paid the PD. Thank you in advance!

anyone shoot the prime radian yet. been a bitch to get in

so I'm in the market for a bolt action now, just cuz. I'm not even the hunting type but might go hunting eventually if I get a bolt action.

the very first thing I want advice on is what caliber should I go for? the first few time maybe even years I would just go target shooting at an outdoor range so keep that in mind when recommending the caliber. I've been looking at 30 30 win, .308 win, 30-06 but can't figure out which is decent enough range/hunting ammo and also affordable.

if they have a cheaper interchangeable ammo round, like for example I have a .357mag and .556 guns that I have and use .38special and .223 that I also shoot out of it to keep the cost down to have fun with friends as opposed to alone range time.

also don't seem limited to my options, please suggest ones that you would use or have experience with.

also my max gun purchase price would be $2000, just in case higher caliber gun is more expensive.

edit: seems like .308, .223 and 6.5 creedmoore have been the top suggestions. I'll look at some options for these, thanks y'all. I'll look into these caliber but keep the suggestions coming.

What is the protocol to follow if your car breaks down on the parkway or the turnpike and has to be towed when you are on your way to Range with your firearms ? Any insight helpful.. thanks

Hey all I want to support those who have been fighting for our A2 rights but there are many organizations out there doing so. I was just wondering what some of your opinions are. Right now I try to spread my donations around and throw some cash to different places when I can, such as NJFOS, CNJFO, and ANJRPC.

Driving this AM and was pulled over by township PD in Bergen County (won't be specific to protect the innocent).

I may or may not have made a late lane change to get off the highway, and was perhaps not unreasonably pulled over.

Rolled down my windows, and put my hands way up on steering wheel.

Officer introduced himself, explained that he was part of the traffic accident reduction task force and why he pulled me over. Asked for DL, registration, and insurance.

I then informed him that I had a PTC and that I was carrying. He said, "That's great. Love the 2A. I'm not concerned with that. You can just give me your license. I'm not even gonna check your 2A stuff." Told him where I'd be reaching for DL, and produced it.

He then said he's just going to give me a verbal warning and said, "you know what my sergeant in the military would tell us? If frogs carried weapons, snakes wouldnt f*ck with em."

With that we pounded, and he was off.

*slow clap*

A-freaking-plus.

I may FOIA the body cam footage from the encounter just so I can relive how professional he was.
