Guys ………PLEASE!!
Guns are dangerous and they shoot people by themselves all the time
So please be fair to Mr Baldwin, our 2A loving actor
He did not pull the trigger
That is all
Thank you
So the Armourer has just been jailed for 18 months
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/alec-baldwins-rust-armorer-sentenced-maximum-time-fatal-on-set-shooting
I wonder if Baldwin is shitting his pants or if the “establishment” will protect him with a slap on the wrist?
Sorry - forgot to update
I ended up going for my original choice - the Taurus TX22
Not had a chance at the range as yet
Gun feels good - only issue is have is the cheapest plastic mags - feel really light and cheap
Will get to the range in the next couple of weeks to try it out
I see this getting kicked out pretty quickly when either the jury or the defence attorney ask to see the gun used
Eh, sorry, but the prosecution destroyed the main evidence your honor :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
Oh - haven’t read about that issue - thanks
TBH - have read too Many bad reviews and issues with the Sig to consider it
maybe recent models are better - but I don’t know
How could they make a gun with so many issues when they have the success of the 365?
Don’t understand that TBH
A lot of options
The 1911’s are over twice my budget……..and I have a full size 1911, but in a 45
I am still leaning towards the Taurus based on all the reviews and the price
The Sig still worries me and have read a few bad reviews on the Walther
The Rutgers - need to look into them
But some...
Thanks guys
Reason I looked at the Taurus was the majority or good reviews
The Sig worried me due to all the reports of jamming and misfires etc………that may be early production models though
But appreciate all the other recommendations - will have a look at them as well
Thanks
Looking at getting this on Saturday at the local gun show in FL
I have other 9’s/45’s……….so just for some cheap range/target fun
Most reviews seem to be really good
Any others worth considering in the $280/$300 price range...
They are trained to stop and neutralise the threat - however many that takes
Looks to me the first couple did not do that - so keep firing till you are sure
Guy had a taser - could also have a gun
Stop the threat - good call
I dont see that as an outcome?
This will effectively remove convictions allowing a person to apply for a permit - I dont see how it removes the pernit process..................maybe I have missed it?
So this mother just got sentenced to 21 months in prison for possessing 1oz of pot and owning a gun/lying on the application
"Taylor was convicted on two counts: using marijuana while owning a gun and lying about her drug use on a federal form."

So watching and listening to news reports this morning
it look like, yet again, the main issue for the Republicans doing so badly is ABORTION
This I am guessing is not going to go away from a Republican perspective and the Dems will again play heavily on this
We have a massive issue for 2024...
Despite the state the country is in, it looks like the Dems retained all of their positions as of now
HOW IS THAT FUCKING POSSIBLE
WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS ARE VOTING FOR THESE PEOPLE
Thanks again guys
yeah - I am not just going to walk across and pick them up
In any case - the guy could out-last me!!!
If and when he dies, I will speak to the executor and I am also going to try to chat to him about some of these concerns and see if he would be happy to put something in...
In terms of a trust, honestly, he is 83 years old and in poor health...................i just cannot bring myself to ask him to do that - I would be happy to pay, but I am not asking him to do that - I would feel like a vulture hovering
As for the sister in law - i have never met...
His biggest wish was that the collection of guns (and there are some REALLY NICE guns) would go to someone who would enjoy them and then ultimately hand them down to their sons (I have 2 who he has met several times)................since he does not have any close family left, other than the...
All great points guys - thank you
Totally agree about the lack of an entry in the will
I asked him about that but he said he didnt want to change his will at this stage and just wanted me to get them
But 100% agree that is the sister in law decides she wants them to sell, and assuming she is...
Thanks guys
Take the point on advertising - good point and i removed the list
This is 100% Florida so it does remove all the NYS issues
Doing a bit more research, in Florida is appears it is a straightforward process...
I will try to keep this short
First, this was a total surprise and NOT expected in any shape
This is in Florida so that makes a huge difference I believe
An old Neighbour who I am friendly with (and have done a fair bit of work for him around his home and yard - never charged as he is a...
So further update
I contacted NYSP for some clarity and here it is;
NYS Handgun licenses issued by upstate NY Counties (except NYC, Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester) do not expire. Those licenses are good until revoked. NYS law requires that you recertify your handgun license every three years...
Mine was issued by Oneida county for 1 year as an out of state resident
Clesrly my mistake then as I thought recertification was the same as renewal
And to save you the hassle of reading through, I cannot renew at Oneida county due to some crazy form they have implemented that now 4 different...
The issue is on my permit it states it expires at the end of October 2023
but I just received recertification from NYSP until 8/2026
I assumed that meant my permit was good until 8/2027
But now I am not so sure?
So this thread below is suggesting that the NYSP recertification process is meaningless and does not actually renew the actual permit???
If so, then I could be back to square one
I wonder if there is anyone that I can actually speak to at the NYSP to clarify...
So quick update to this post
First, thanks to everyone who helped with suggestions and recommendations - much appreciated
I submitted everything by snail mail to NYSP (recert form, FL Drivers License, Copy of NY and FL homes address, copy of existing NY Permit, copy of FL background check...
Honestly, I have blocked this guy (zerex) as I think he may be actually insane
Everything he has said, insinuated, surmised is absolutely nonsense
He has no idea of my background, employment, family circumstances, direct connection to LEO……..nothing
I am not acting illegally, trying to con...
You are wrong on just about every single assumption - as the saying goes……
“stupid as stupid does”
I have now blocked you so I don’t see your drivel anymore
No idea why you think I am scamming anyone..............maybe read up on NYS tax laws before you start accusing people of scamming the states - that may help your brain grasp the concept...............it really is simple to understand
I am 100% resident in FL the full year and only go to the...
“Out of state residents who do not possess either a New York State Driver License or Non-Driver Identification Card must use the paper form to recertify and must attach a copy of their driver’s license or non-driver identification from their state of issuance.”
Yep - I am going to try that...
I tried that
when I enter my FL drivers license number and change the state to FL, it says the info cannot be verified and does not allow me to continue
So you think that if I apply for a "NY non driver ID" at a NY DMV, that would allow me to certify online?
I am in NY next week and could likely go into a DMV and get that applied for
Thanks
The issue appears to be the approach which the Oneida County Pistol Permit office it taking
As you can see from earlier in the thread, they have a very specific form to be completed
The instruction which goes with that form states;
"If the license holder does not supply the fully...
So i tired again this morning at another local PD - nope, they cannot sign it and frankly i can understand
They cannot sign off on;
No evidence of addiction
no evidence of mental illness
no other licenses suspended or revoked
as examples
But realistically, who can sign off on all of...
I have the FL background check fully completed, but 3 different departments refused to sign the form provided by Oneida county - it was not their form and they simply do not recognize or accept the Oneida fomr
No idea where you get the idea that I am trying to cheat the system - where in any of...
Thanks for the info
My permit is held in Oneida county, the same county that my cabin is situated (I may have said Adirondacks, which is incorrect - i meant Oneida county, near the Adirondacks - my mistake)
My DL is for Florida - I do not have a NYS DL
To recertify on the NYSP site, it looks...
I am not in a position to purchase additional land and and RV to put on it - just not possible
I have a FL DL and not a NY DL
I did have a NY DL until I moved to FL
Are you saying that Erie County are more gun friendly and that I could potentially transfer my NY permit there - or would I need...
