Gift Ideas For The Gun Guy/Gal Who Already Has It All - #2 Adasion 12x42 Binoculars

Gift Ideas For The Gun Guy/Gal Who Already Has It All - #2 Adasion 12x42 Binoculars

In our previous blog post we discussed the need to have a good flashlight.  One example of it was the Fenix PD35 TAC. Another item that is staple in my shooting bag is a good pair of binoculars. While I am certainly not an optics snob who needs a $3,000 pair of binoculars with a built in range finder,  I do need something good enough to use at the range to either locate targets, spot hits for other shooters or to record shooting footage for my YouTube videos. One pair I recently p

Gift Ideas For The Gun Guy/Gal Who Already Has It All - #1 Fenix PD35 TAC Flashlight

The holidays are here and "Yay" it is once again to go buy gifts. As a gun guy, while I certainly appreciate my friends and family trying to find something firearms related, it is most often easier to just say, "Just get me a gift card to..."  Does anyone really want to be gifted a Hi-Point?   In that spirit, I am going to share some of my ideas for what I think are pretty cool gifts for the gun guy or girl in our lives, that are not actually guns. The first one is the Fenix PD35

Gun Control or Merely Incompetence? New Jersey Towns Are "Out of Permits"

Gun Control or Merely Incompetence? New Jersey Towns Are "Out of Permits"

New Jersey's gun owners have largely heard most of the excuses when it comes to applying for pistol permits, from the classic "The Chief has not been able to sign them yet, he is (on vacation, too busy,  lunar calendar has not aligned)" to the "we only process pistol permits once a week from X to Y o'clock, by appointment only." Now legal, law abiding citizens have a new one they can add to the list... "we ran out of pistol permits." What was surely supposed to be yet another joke of a

Breaking Down The Barriers To Long Range Shooting!

When I first got into shooting in the mid 2000s,  I quickly became interested in long range shooting. At that time, the standard recommendation for most shooters was to pick up  a Remington 700 Police or a 700 VS and if your budget does not allow that, a Savage model 10FP, both in 308 Winchester.  Generally, both of these guns would allow you to shoot around 1 MOA or better with match grade ammunition.  In either case however,  you were recommended to get into reloading if you wanted to get

Ruger Wrangler - The Perfect Gun For New Shooters & Trainers?

Ruger Wrangler - The Perfect Gun For New Shooters & Trainers?

A number of community members know that last month, I attended a private media event sponsored by Ruger which was co-sponsored with Leupold and Hornady.    During this event, Ruger showed off and let us play with the new products which were set to be announced around the 2019 NRA show which just wrapped up.   While the central products of focus were the three Ruger long range rifles, the Ruger Precision Rifles in 6.5 PRC and 300 PRC, and the Ruger Hawkeye Long Range Target, the company

When 'Good' is Good Enough

When 'Good' is Good Enough

Since learning to shoot about 15 years ago, and more particularly in the last 10 years since starting New Jersey Gun Forums, I have been blessed with the ability to shoot a wide variety of firearms and accessories, everything from entry level handguns to rifles and shotguns which can purchase a decent house somewhere in the Mid-West. One constant in the gun world is that much like in every other hobby, there is, within a certain segment an equipment race, to have the latest and greatest gea

Range Day With A Purpose

Range Day With A Purpose

Remember when you acquired your first firearm? For most gun owners, that time was both exciting and scary!  On one hand, you acquired your first handgun and had hopefully gone to the range.  At the same time, let's admit it, unless you were in the military,  you were at least a LITTLE bit afraid, either of scratching up that shiny new bluing, not being able to put it back together after cleaning, or even leaving it unattended.  After a while however,  you become accustomed to it and it beco

Are NJ Gun Owners Rats On A Sinking Ship?

As the euphoria of the 2016 presidential elections is wearing off, another feeling is starting to creep in on gun owners throughout our state.  That feeling is one of great concern for the few gun rights we currently enjoy. As Governor Christie's term is coming to an end, gun owners have to start accepting that in the near future, the few gun rights we currently enjoy are going to come under almost certain attack from politicians in the state.  Don't get me wrong, while Governor Christie ha
