Newt,

Good luck tomorrow. What criteria are utilized to judge the merit of the R9 or any other gun, for that matter?

Hi PCA, Any handgun is judged considering the following characteristics, this is right off the application, 1. concealability 2. Ballistic accuracy 3.Weight 4.Quality of materials 5.Quality of manufacture 6.Reliability as to safety 7.Caliber 8.Detectability by the standard security equipment commonly used at airports or courthouses 9.Utility for legitimate sporting activities,selfprotection,or law enforcement. The board shall not place undue weight on any one characteristic.

Newt, It all sounds like a way of keeping guns out of the hands of the citizens. You just thought you were free.  Tom

[PCA]

Newt,

Tom is right. the description is cogent and well written but if there is no weight given to any consideration, this is an opportunity for denial.

Hope I'm wrong.

BTW: I finally got my paperwork going for permit to purchase the R9. The guy told me to call him in a month. This is very, very fast in NJ. I used to get purchase permits within a few days but NJ is always on the track of regression.

My FFL dealer is applauding all the bad mouthing of NJ that I'm posting as he cannot make a good living. One guy he sold a gun to is still waiting for his permit after 6 months. Once he gets the permit, he will have only 2 more background checks to go.

This is deliberate. Lawmakers in NJ are very concerned about the rights of criminals and could care less about gun owners.

Well, I pulled the trigger   so to speak (sorry for the lame pun) and gave Arego's a call.  As soon as my FFL gets there they will overnight it.  I want you all to know that I blame all of you here for this addition to my credit card debt.  But seriously, thanks for all the input.  I have never bought anything sight unseen before, but with all the info here I feel comfortable doing so with the rohrbaugh.  I am sure I will feel happier with a 9mm in the pocket as opposed to a .32.  Now I just need to get an order together for that Hedley pocket holster.  Some more business coming your way RJ, due to the rave reviews of the forum, so move that cat out of the way.  Just kidding the hoster can wait until the cat wakes up.  I'll be in touch.
