Welcome to the group.

 

We have an official group meetup at CR on the second Sunday of the month during the warm weather. Attendance varies, but it's always a good time. Everyone brings a bunch of stuff, and everyone gets to try anything on the tables. We usually meet at the handgun range and move around from there, winding up on the shotgun range to blow up some clays.

 

Besides that, there are usually members at the range on any weekend. Just watch the Events & Meetups forum. Now that the weather is warmer, there'll be lots of activity at CR.

Thank you!

I've heard all about the Glocks, I have shoot a few and I like them but I DO have other purchases in mind in the future, like a Browning MK III and a nice S&W snubbie.

Funny fact: I wrote my first post and walk out from home to find in the mail a nice envelope from the Florida Deparment of Agriculture & Costumer Services!!! I knew this will happen. Now I can carry a weapon that I don't have in 34 states... (irony comes to mind).

 

Congrats. I find it pathetic that Florida treats non residents better than NJ treats its own.

Welcome to the forum from Toms River. I grew up in the Oranges a long (long) time ago! Make sure you go out and try a bunch of guns before you decide on one. My son and I shot a bunch of Glocks, Berettas, Sigs and M&Ps before settling on our XDs. We also have a Buckmark and Ruger Mk III for plinking and cheap shooting. Both are real tack drivers. You are welcome to come on down to Brick Armory on Tuesday nights to shoot a plethora of pistols!

      Radios...?

      By Buck Russell · Posted

      If you’re going to VA, buy 2 radios.  Program one for here and one for there.  If you guys are buying Baofeng radios do yourself a favor and get a tactical antenna for it,it’ll extend your reach.

      Non-Hollowpoint? (Long)

      By GRIZ · Posted

      Both our memories are a bit lacking. 3 bystanders were hit by NYPD bullets and 6 were hit by fragments at the Empire State Building shooting. The bullets later were determined to have passed through the bad guy as I said. He was not a big guy. The police fired 16 rds and 7 hit the bad guy.  Spray and pray?  I think not.  These officers fired until the threat was stopped and everyone is moving. Have you ever tried to hit a moving target whilst you're moving.  If you watch the video from where the police encounter him, the BG draws his gun from his bag, NYPD guys shoot, and the BG hit the ground is about 2 or 3 seconds.  The closest officer is maybe 12 feet or less.  The closest cover are those concrete flower pots.  If the officers chose to take cover before drawing the BG would have had a chance to shoot at least one officer. Know your target and beyond?  Agree 100%.  However, this by the Empire State Building at 9 am during the week.  There are bystanders and traffic in every direction.  The officers had a choice of doing what they did or letting the BG shoot them with his 1911 and shoot someone else. I think they made the right choice and the same one I would have made.  The officers exercised the best option in protecting themselves and the public. The first video is the police shooting.  The second is more detailed and gives you a lot of background information on the shooter. One thing this shows is if NYPD had to use fmj undoubtedly more bystanders would have been wounded perhaps killed.  NJ's hollowpoint law. only creates more danger to the public.
