Hello from Staten Island

[RFMT]

Hey everyone. I've had my NYC rifle and pistol permits for about 10 years. I had a couple of weapons for self defense that I practiced with a few times. With the current situation, I've dusted them off and tried to stockpile some ammo. I'll be adding weapons ASAP because we may need them and they may try banning them soon. I only really know what I pick up from YouTube and range instructors and friends. I'll be looking to you guys(and gals) for some guidance. But first, hello.

 

[BDinPutnam]

Welcome.

What do you have?

 

[RFMT]

Mossberg Maverick 88 and a Ruger 38 Special snub nose. I was advised that those are good home defense weapons.

 

[togmaster]

They are guns. You make them weapons. Welcome I guess.

 

[RFMT]

Actually guns are weapons by definition. Thanks, I guess.

 

[togmaster]

Not my definition. Don't tell me you were an English major.

Welcome, I grew up on Staten Island and still have family there. I fortunately went to college in CNY and have pretty much lived here since. I still get down there to see my mom and siblings, but I don't miss living there at all . My youngest brother still does and struggled jumping through the NYC hoops for firearms. As bad as it is in Upstate it is nowhere near as f'ed up as in the city. I can't wait to retire and move to a free state. Regardless, welcome to the forum

What you got against English majors?

I would love to escape the people’s republic of New York but job and family have me tied down for the time being. I’m in a good neighborhood but who knows how long that will last. Central Jersey is the farthest I can roam for now.

Welcome to NYGF.
You are correct that a gun is a weapon.
A weapon is anything used to attack, injure or kill a person or animal.
A gun is a small weapon using bullets.
