One of these days I'll get the message soon enough...I hope.

It's a great club overall, and the one I call 'home'. The rifle ranges are my favorite part. There is a full sports shop on site now in case you forget the basics, but you do need your own: Eyewear hearing protection staple gun (tape just doesn't get the job done) You do not need your own target backers, as the club provides plywood backers . Like any range, there are those who get a bit too lax in the rules at the pistol / 25 yard range. For your own safety be a good example and follow the flag system at all times and hopefully it will reinforce safe behavior in others. On busy weekends I've seen things at the pistol range that made my hair turn white, mostly due to people agreeing to 'walk up' and shoot closer while someone at the line is still fiddling with their guns. The rules are clearly in place, and seem to be strictly followed at the rifle ranges. The more examples of responsible behavior we give, the less this will likely happen in the future ( I hope). See you there sometime.

I have some .223 brass and I don't reload that caliber. I'll PM you.

I think a vertical foregrip on a rifle with a pistol grip feels very natural and makes it easier for me to 'point and shoot' quickly. One thing I didn't think of before purchasing my first vertical grip, was that the full length grips may interfere with magazine removal in an AK pattern rifle. Tapco and a few other brands offer a 'stubby' size which worked well instead.

Thanks. I'm always down for either Federal or S&B brass 9mm delivered under 12 a box. Time for more ammo cans

yes, I believe it was steel. I personally don't need .223 at the moment but it's the best deal on .223 I've seen in quite some time. Especially for those that don't save the brass. I know, there are always those who refuse to use steel cased, polymer cased, zinc cased, etc. I've never had any issues personally, but you're mileage may vary.

Anyone have a link or info on 'average' sale prices for tumbled brass in various calibers? I'm doing my annual spring cleaning and wonder if it would be worth it for me to either sell some pickup brass, or trade for calibers I might reload. If not, does anyone have a resource for brass scrap prices in our area? I appreciate the info. Thanks

thanks for the links everyone. i still would prefer a ftf or local sale if possible. Are you referencing the current show at oaks? i agree there were many last time, but there were only a couple at yesterdays show . The few on display were either mint collectibles or Russian in near mint.

Still looking, after some disappointment at the Oaks gunshow. Anyone have a Yugo that is in working condition, but either not matching or with dinged up furniture? Message me with what you have! Thanks

I had the same experience at the Oaks show. I went there looking for an inexpensive sks, and left disappointed. The show had plenty of Mosin 91/30's and ARs, but not much else. I did find a .22lr AR 15 round mag, so I got at least one thing on my list. (that and beef jerky)

I'm always in for 9mm depending on the price.

Im still looking for both a nice sks and also a beater one too. any idea where i can find one too?

Vlad definitely knows his stuff. EXACTLY. Just implying that the 'older' customer was more knowledgable than the younger customer proves the point. How does age have anything to do with it? Having the wrong information as 'gospel' for 30 years + makes someone a complete moron...not wiser. There certainly are some ambiguities in NJ firearms law, but this is not one of them. I LOVE when uninformed people try to explain to me how 'courts work' or how 'laws are interpreted in court'...it makes me literally laugh. I don't even tell them that I'm a lawyer...it wouldn't matter. These same types of people will still tell me they know better. I get treated similarly in some gun shops, and when I do leave and never return.

Don't most reloaders clean / tumble their brass before powder and the bullet?

Anyone here looking to sell an 'inexpensive' SKS? I'm looking for a shooter grade, worn stock / mismatches are just fine as long as the bore is in decent condition and the rifle fires safely. The cost is the most important factor for me, so I imagine a yugo, romanian, Norinco or similar would be a better bet, unless someone has a cheaper Russian they just simply don't want. Fixed magazine of course, for NJ. If not, is this something I might find at the next big gun show? Yes, i know I can find some on gunbroker and the like, but after $30 shipping, and up to $40 transfer and NICS, it's just not worth it. So, let me know what you got. I have all the required ID's. Located in South Jersey, but I'm willing to drive most of the way to meet up. Thanks!

My personal opinion, the worst centerfire ammo I've ever used was 9mm from USAAmmo. Inconsistent, primer issues, some rounds had steel casings instead of brass, etc. ( I could go on for a while before even mentioning the kabooms we've read about) The worst overall ammo is the remington .22lr's, for all the reasons above. Nothing like having 20% of it fail to fire in both an AR .22 upper and all of my .22 pistols. I'd rather buy any other brand, than receive this for free.

I went ahead and installed the glockworx 'race' connector and competition spring set. It turned out to be a real easy job that only took about 5 minutes, a 3/32 punch and help from some youtube videos. It now consistently breaks just under 3.5#. It started at 5.5 #. The reset is short, but very positive. I'm not sure if I could get better performance out of the full drop in unit vs. the $20 spring / connector kit, but I'm very happy with this.

Has anyone installed these on their glocks? Did it lower the pounds to 3.5, or less? I'm interested to hear the results if someone has tried these. Thanks

Up for sale is a barely used Beretta 92 / 96 .22lr conversion kit, Like new in the box with the 15 round magazine. It has been used for under 200 rounds and performs flawlessly with both standard and high velocity .22 rounds. The kit is complete with slide, barrel, guide rod, spring and magazine. It's a great way to have low cost fun with your 92, 92fs, or 96. Asking $170. Located in Camden County, NJ but I'm willing to ship to those who cannot meet locally. No FFL or permits needed for this kit. Feel free to ask any questions or view http://www.22lrconve....com/ber-pg.htm Pics attached. Thanks http://i.imgur.com/VB4cr.jpg?1 http://i.imgur.com/6d1Cd.jpg

I think I figured out what I'm going for. I think i'm going for the free float Troy battle rail 15" with a flip up sight at the end. http://store.troyind...eli-15bt-xx.htm I can use this over a midlength lowpro gasblock and get the sight profile i'm looking for on a 16" lightweight barrel. I'm excited. Going to go for this and a cmmg .22lr upper and I'm set for a short while . Thanks Guys!

So it seems that the PSA brand uppers all have a heavy barrel type, and that Spikes one is out of stock. The Spikes one looks exactly the kind of thing I was thinking of though. If I have a low profile gas block then, I can still use a rifle length rail / foreend?

I'm sure someone more experienced here can help. I am looking for a dissipator / mock dissipator upper in 5.56/.223, but can't seem to find the type I am looking for. Is it possible to get a lightweight barrel, midlength gas system, and rifle length handguards (or rail) with a standard sight block at the full length? Is there something inherently wrong with this setup...? I'm thinking that maybe this is why I can't find one. Otherwise, Could I just get a lightweight midlength upper, with midlength gastube, without a front sight block? With this setup could I just use a rifle length handguard and mount a flip up front sight at the full length and make a 'mock' type dissipator? Any help or links would be appreciated. Thanks
