  1. Yea dont worry I can only carry while on the clock. And thanks to he same aforementioned morons in Trenton because of wording I have to unload my mag and store ammo away from reach of the weapon and the whole deal after a long night at work since my permit doesn't allow transportation to and from work. Oh I drive a wrangler he entire vehicle is within reach! But banks guys. I will have to look into some of the mentioned options
  2. So my carry permit for my job finally processed and now I have to go out and buy some full metal jacket rounds after reloading for years! I reload with hollow points. I have some hornady critical defense .40 calls I keep at home just incase. I was recently talking either a friend and he says that nj state police do not consider these as hollow points since they have the polymer in the cavity. For some reason I highly doubt it but does anybody actually know for sure? I tried calling the state police barracks that issued my carry permit bug no one there was any the wiser either. I could only picture them scratching their heads on the other side of the phone as I was told .........ummm sir I'm not really sure by a few people. Has anybody else dealt with this situation? I'd rather carry those than the fmj. But again anything us better than nothing.
  3. Yea it does kinda stink with the no holstered thing. I was told if you are police they will allow it but haven't seen anyone actually do it. I have been told they want slow dire. Why I don't know but I think it really depends on the range officer and well who you are. Me and my cousin went and were probably shooting a lot faster than 1 a second and never had an issue, that being said I am military and my cousin is state corrections and they know us there. They had a lot of legal issues lately but my experience has always been positive and you can't beat the price!
  4. Like the title says, Delran junior marksman clubs pistol range has now been reopened. It was shut down for quite some time due to legal issues with surrounding corporations that haven't been around as long as the range. Me and my cousin went over there today for a few hours and I am very impressed with all the work they put into the pistol range! It was a complete overhaul! It looks great and as always the staff is always helpful and respectful. If you live around the area check it out! It's only 25 dollars for the day, none of that pay by the hour crap! But they don't have a shop so bring ammo and targets with you! Oh and if you are military or police, ask about their discounted price. It CANT be beat! This place has been around for years and almost got shut down but they are back! If you are in Burlington county or not far from the Delran/cinnaminson area they are on Taylor's Lane.

    1911 shopping

    Aside from having the external extractor I love my sig! Sig scorpion 1911 carry model. It has a different slide profile than the standard 1911 but I like it because it is different. Sig also has a traditional style with the internal extractor and their internals are good quality and not m.i.m. Parts like some of the kimbers are supposedly coming with these days. I got mine for about 800 out the door and can't be happier. Purchased through hunting world guns and ammo right through this site. The only problem I had with mine is that the rear serrations are rough enough that I short stroked the slide with gloves on. I never shot with an ambi thumb safety and I was riding the thumb safety too much. And yes I'm a lefty so I got an ambi on purpose. Good luck on the search
  6. Thanks I wasn't sure as far as new Jersey itself. I figured it would be an issue because of coarse it is new Jersey. But hey one can wish can't they. A few friends where thinking about splitting cost on the jig and all, but I guess I'm stuck finding a lower. Missed out on a blemish run for 60 bucks! Oh well time to move out of Jersey
  7. I came across a video for an ar lower that still needs the trigger group and pin holes cut out. Aparently according to current statues this is a perfectly legal way to build an ar-15 but it isn't serialized or registered as a weapon. I don't care about the registering part that's not important to me but as long as the weapon is made by one person and never transfers ownership then it seems to be perfectly ok to do a build this way. I guess my question is, does anybody know if this is even true and possible in the lovely state of new Jersey? It seems like a fun way to build a firearm, it's a bit more than just slapping parts together. I don't plan on building it in a way that is illegal to Jersey rules and all, it would follow all rules as a regular stripped reciever build as afar as barrel length pinned stock, and what ever else. I don't want to spend the money and not be able to posess this if its not legal but I'm not sure where to turn to for info so I figured I would start here. The company gives the statutes by the atf stating where you are legaly aloud to build a firearm for personal use so long as it is only for that person and not being produced for sale. If anyone has done this or has any info pertaining to this it would be greatly appreciated.
  8. Basically my question is as stated above. I have been looking at an 80% lower that will need the trigger group and hammer and sear pin holes machined out still. Being that this is not technically a firearm it can be bought and built without having been serialized and registered. Now I could care less about the registering part just seems like a fun way to do a build. My question is..... Is that even possible to do in New Jersey? And has anyone tried it? According to the stipulations I saw, as long as this is purchased and built for yourself and never transfered to another owner it is technically legal, but does new Jersey still follow that rule of thumb.
  9. It truly is pathetic! I live right around the corner nd frequently now I don't have anywhere to shoot. The main problem is the local company that owns practically the entire block! They have been co planning about the range since the built their warehouse! Makes sense right? Build next to a shooting then co plain about it stupid isn't it. This is the second time they got shut down. And if people are finding bullets at their house, odds are they aren't coming from the range! The lanes point into the ground and if you go past the warehouses is the freakin river! I'm a 5 minute drive but now I'm forced to drive an hour and a half to. Friends property since that's still cheaper than the other clubs. Oh and if it does get permanently shut down, my guess Whitesell will end up buying it and expanding. But again they do own most of delrans business industry. It's all politics.
  10. Thanks guys I think I will end up working through njreloader. He doesn't deal with powder or primers though it seems. Guess I'm off to a gun show for those. Gotta find a good powder for the .45 now.
  11. Mikeythumbs I live just off route 130 in the delran area about 10 minutes from the Betsy Ross bridge. My son goes to DuPont children's hospital that is on the same road as targetmasters. The range is about 10 minutes past the hospital and usually only takes us 45 minutes to get there. Hope that helps any for travel Times. It's a pretty simple drive, hit 95 south and take that into delaware until you hit the exit for concord pike(202) and you go probably 10 to 12 minutes down on the right. I have yet to shoot there but I did look around the place and it seems really nice.
  12. Ok I have been reloading fo a few years now and mostly been using xtp bullets in my .40s well now that I'm going to start reloading the .45 I have been looking at cheaper alternatives. I am happy with the Berrys bullets I recently bought for the .40s but I have been looking into xtreme plated bullets. My question is what stores do you know of that carry reloading supplies especially plated bullets. The only places near me within a 45 minute drive only carries xtps and lead. I don't want to deal with lead just yet but I'd rather help a store in this state rather than order online. So please start naming some stores for me. I don't mind a little driving. Thanks guys
  13. While I dont have asthma my wife when she was pregnant started throwing up from the smell of hoppes bore solvent I was forced to not clean my guns as often or do it outside on the deck weather permitting. A GREAT alternative especially on the smell factor I recommend frog lube. It smells like wintergreen lifesavers! It's aparently all natural too so little ones or pets wont be killed by it if they where to eat it. I've only cleaned my xd with it twice so far but even the initial cleaning the gun felt super slick but not to the touch I might add. The carbon practically dissolves right off too! My jaw hit the floor when on my barrel where it contacts the breach face normally takes a good scrubbing with the hoppes, the frog lube cut right under the carbon and lifted it right off! Seems to work well for me and the smell if freakin awesome!
  14. I just recently purchase a Sig scorpion 1911 carry model and right in the manual it states to strip the gun and clean and repubs before use due to a packing lube they use on the pistol before sending them out. While this being my first 1911 I am not New to disassembly but have never had to mess with an ambi safety before. I did the normal look up on you tube to find disassembly videos and started to break it all down. I can't get this freakin safety to budge! Neither side wants to come off at all! Hammer is cocked, I tried to put the lever inbetween safe and fire, yea nothing. I got mad the first time so I squirted a little lube in to everything and took a trip to the range for its first 150 rds. The weapon ran great but I still want to get the guts out and clean them up and throw a little frog lube on everything. Any recommendations or tips to get this freakin ambi safety off without destroying the cerakote finish!
  15. Delran junior marksman has a 100 yard range and only charges 20 a day for non members but check their website first and call I'm not sure if they are open any longer for firearms usage they have been having major issues with a surrounding company trying to shut them down. I know they are open for their kids air rifle competitions try calling them
  16. Wow! Guess I lucked out with my originals in Gloucester township only took a month for my fid and pistol permit. Worst of all the officer handling everything told me two freakin weeks! What a dick! Oh well guess I'm stuck annoying him every other day
  17. Springfield xd-40 with full length guide rod and 20 lb recoil spring soaking up the recoil of Speer gold dot 185 grain hollow points and spare mag has 200 grain xtp hand loads. Of coarse I doubt I'll ever have to use them. Odds are the two 65 lb pit bulls will do the trick. And ones only a year and a half old no where near done growing!
  18. Ok well I recently moved from a rental house to a house I purchased both of wich are in the same town and filed for a change of address and a new pistol permit. My fid and pistol where filed through a different town years ago when I lived with my parents. I never changed my license and address until I bought my house. I have now been waiting for almost 8 weeks for my fid and permit. I have called 3 times with no return call, I have stopped in and asked to speak with the officer in charge, he will not speak with me, always busy! And on 2 of the 4 stops in he was off. and yes I left messages all times. Now it hasn't been the biggest thing on my mind as my son has a heart defect and I have been in Delaware for the past 6 weeks with him, that's besides the pont though. Is there any time frame that they have to abide by for the address change and the new permit? I mean 8 weeks is a bit much! I live in riverside nj in Burlington county. If anyone has Any helpful info it would be greatly appreciated. This new guy takes forever it seems. Too bad, my old neighbor when I was a kid was the officer that did the permits up until he retired about 4 months ago he was quick!
  19. I know this post is a bit older but I too was thinking of building myself a 300 blk. Just seems like a sweet round to have for if nothing else other than to have it. Cguiro, as mentioned above reloading isn't that expensive to get into especially if this is a round you don't plan on shooting a TON of. I have the lee reloading kit as stated above and am very happy with it I don't shoot as much as I would like to so it works for me, I can make as much ammo as I need for a range trip easily in about an hour and a half and that is with 2 kids 2 dogs and the wife asking questions or just bugging me. Jackson isn't horribly far from me, pending on where of coarse, but if you wanted to at least take a look at my press and set up to get an idea if it was something you where intersted n just let me know. I currently only have my xd .40 in my possession but I say easily 200 to 250 rds in that amount of time give or take a few minutes here or there. Again if your interested just let me know
  20. Oh and thanks for steering me in the right direction on a few things. Kinda got that new gun lets go crazy on it twinkle in my eye. Still want a shorter barrel tho. Thanks again everyone.
  21. The more I think about it yea I might just give up on most of my thoughts for it. Definitely will get different sights I just don't like the look of the factory sights and a set of Magpul Mbus sights aren't super expensive. I still want a shorter barrel but that may be done later down the road I still need to buy the rifle in the first place. Hopefully if I can sell my jeep I might just be able to get this for my wife and also build my ar! That's gonna most likely run me 1500 bucks so I would definitely have to sell my jeep. Don't need two cars if I'm gonna be in basic and ait for 6 months gotta drop that car payment.
  22. That blows I live 2 lights down from it off of rt 130 I didn't even realize they where shut down....again. I am not a member although they have probably made more money off of me not being one. I was just there maybe 2 months ago and they where pretty well packed. I figured all was looking well again. I know when they got shut down before they had to completely overhaul he pistol range. I wonder what's up now. The surrounding company has been trying to shut them down for years, I guess they are starting to gain the upper hand finally. Oh well guess its back to driving to my buddy's property to shoot now. I could have walked to Delran range if I wanted too. Not saying I did of coarse! Not with guns in hand!
  23. Well as I statd originally I know it's a .22. I want it to look like the one I want to build. Obviously the comp is pointless hell it's pointless on a 5.56 in my opinion as well they don't have a ton of recoil as is, maybe for reducing muzzle signature sure I could understand that. hence on a full sized ar why I would want it. I'm going for looks on this one, for fun, plus I have an addiction to modifying things. Yea I was definitely looking into mags. I had seen some aftermarket brand 15 rounders but I can't remembere where I found them now for 16 a piece. I'm mad I can't find the site again! My dad has an old Remington .22 I shoot that once in a while hence the stockpile of 3 bricks of .22 ammo. First things first is probably gonna be magpul mbus sights.
  24. I looked at the shrouds not bad but I think I still want to shorten and I.stall the compensator I like. As for the ar yea I could do the .22 upper but at all the parts I'm looking at its already pretty pricey so I haven't done it nor can I convince the wife to let me! Since I promised a buddy I would buy his 1911 between that and the 15-22 I'm lookin at close to a grand. No way I can swing the full ar. Mainly because everyhing I want to use is expensive i want it to look sweet as well as function. The ar I want to do consists of a vltor upper a noveske lower and a piston drive system. Found a rra lower at my gun store for 350 figured I could build the upper. They way I see it I have one shot to do it the way I want to. I have two boys ones 2 and ones 8 months old, if I get to build one its probably the only chance ill get for a while! Clintoon sounds like you got one sweet 15-22 I love the look of those stocks. It's what I had in mind for mine. Plus if it goes on the .22 odds are if o ever build the ar its going right on that instead!
  25. Ehh 10 inches isn't horribly short still like the 13 inchers tho. Thanks for measuring that out man. I might just have to take you up on that some time man once everything with my son is cleared up ill have the time. I'd love to shoot one before I buy one, I try to with any gun, but I'm thinkin I will most likely just buy it anyway!
