New firearm owner. I applied for my FID back in August and my local police department got my paperwork processed and approved faster than I anticipated. Went out and bought a Ruger AR 556(NJ compliant, obviously). So far haven't done much besides practice loading and unloading the thing.
I've played airsoft for the past 10 years, so I understand how a gun works in theory, but now I'm learning how to operate real steel literally. Figured I'd join here to learn a thing or two.
Also, have my handgun permit sitting on my dresser, planning on purchasing a pistol in the next month or two, any suggestions for a reliable, budget handgun would be appreciate as well.
