Brisco 130 Posted November 25, 2009 Wow, just found this forum late last night. Great I can get some info from fellow gun lovers here in NJ. A little background for you. I am a bit of a Noob. A few friends took me to Shore Shot in the beginning of October. Loved it, put in my applications the next week(only one pistol). Joined the NRA, Joined Shore Shot, have been scouring the internet for information about handguns, shooting etc. My permits came back 11/13. On 11/14 I picked up an FHN FNP-40. On 11/21 dropped off applications for 2 more handguns. Trying to decide on my first rifle or first shotgun. I'm glad I found you guys Didn't hear about the Brick Armory till last week, Any of you guys shoot at Shore Shot? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brisco 130 Posted November 25, 2009 Hello and welcome. What do you think of the FNP-40? I've been considering it for my next handgun purchase. I like the FNP-40, only problem is the loaded chamber indicator didn't work at all at first, seems to be loosening up and working better. About 600 rounds so far, no problems :text-welcomewave: I have been to shore shot in the past, but I go (when I have time) to Brick Armory. Actually a group of guys here go usually on Tuesday nights.

simmons 1 Posted November 25, 2009 Welcome to the boards. I've been in Keyport for a little over a year now. Let me know if you ever want to Head to Brick Armory. My buddies and I had a few bad experiences over at SureShot so were pretty loyal to BA nowadays. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My buddies and I had a few bad experiences over at SureShot so were pretty loyal to BA nowadays. If you don't mind me asking, what happened with who over there? I'm thinking of shooting Friday, Will BA let me bring my own ammo and how much to shoot if I'm not a member? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njpilot 671 Posted November 25, 2009 Yes you can bring your own ammo to B.A. I think it is $19+tax for a walk-on, but I've heard that if you tell them you are from the forum, I think they give you a break on that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XDJohnTact 49 Posted November 26, 2009 Brisco, my son are members at Shore Shot and have bought 7 guns there and always got good prices and service. Used to shoot the Monday night Fun Shoot (until my son got a new job in NY). We like the staff over there and get a lot of good advice from them. I did buy my last pistol from BA because Phil could get it in the time frame I needed it. He gave me good price and service. Their new range and store are really nice.

I'm thinking of shooting Friday, Will BA let me bring my own ammo and how much to shoot if I'm not a member? When we first got into shooting there is a specific person there that always seemed to talk down or at us. Don't get me wrong a few of the guys there were helpful but one bad seed ruinned it for me. Plus durring the ammo crunch they wanted more then $30 for a box of .45 acp. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
