well u can go to the rutgers gun and boat center, but its not really a nice place. They have a small selection on hand but can order anything. A nice old man runs the place but when I say old i mean it. When you walk in you'll feel like you are back in the 50's there. Their transfer fees are high so i dont use them for that..but if you really have to have something ordered locally you can always go to them. They are in highland park right off rt27

mark at rutgers was old back in the 60's when i first went there , they also have most any gun book you could want in stock - also sayreville sports man - used to be six + gun shops in edison at one time - ranges , south river + carteret -

[mikeyboyeee 66]

south river + carteret -

 

Neither of which are public.

nice... how about within 30-40mins drive from Edison >> anytin better there?

[Krdshrk 3,878]

Gun Shops? Rahway Firearms Guild (Expensive).

 

I think the Bullet Hole is within 30/40 mins, depending on traffic. Wouldn't buy from them though.

what are you looking to buy?

[mikeyboyeee 66]

Brick Armory and Sure shot are your best bets.

 

About 45mn.

Sayreville Sportsman is pretty close and has a decent selection of new, used, and vintage rifles/shotguns, and an ok pistol selection. ShoreShot has a lot more pistols, and not as many rifles. Brick has an average selection. Dicks Sporting Goods in Woodbridge Center Mall has a fairly large rifle and shotgun collection. I was actually pretty surprised on how much stuff they have upstairs there.

They have a Dick's in Menlo Park.

Disagree. NJ Firearms Guild in Rahway is significantly closer, isn't any more expensive (all three are expensive), but has significantly more in stock than either (probably more in stock than both combined).

 

Forum readers know I have mixed feelings about the NJFAG, but they are really close and have a lot in stock.

 

Brick Armory has a truly unimpressive stock.

I'd call Dicks in Woodbridge Center mall and if they have it in stock... they have huge rack of shotguns and rifles there. You can try some local guys, but I think the easiest would be that Dicks. I kinda hate going to dicks tho cause their staff is pretty clueless. They usually aren't gun people...

*Dick's Employee, pointing at ATF Form 4473* "do you gotta fill this one out too?"

Specifically talking about ranges, not shops.

[Melgamatic 66]

Yes! On the range side, I also prefer Shore Shot to Bullet Hole. The family that runs Bullet Hole is very nice, but the store and range are too crowded/busy for my tastes.

They have that back room loaded to the MAXXXXX at bullethole!

[tuktuk 16]

8) so did we reach a general consensus ?

[FFDP82 4]

They have that back room loaded to the MAXXXXX at bullethole!

 

IMO they load it well past reasonable capacity. With so many packed people in there it not even enjoyable. I remember going there my last time about a year ago, elbow to elbow on weekends, the booth is cramped, the line is so cramped you cant even open the door, bags all over the floor damn near tripping over them. Ugh. Never again.

The NJFG isn't really expensive. I've bought most of my guns there. Their used guns are a paticularly good buy as you save a lot of money, get a warrentee, have a gunsmith there to back it up with salesmen who are gun people. They show you how to field strip a new gun and give all support info.

Their inventory is great!

Buy the gun online and get it transferred at vinnys in millstone twp. Cheapest and easiest solution

[Genewarper111 18]

there's a gun store in Millstone??? v close to where I work....

[hiker88 22]

not a gun store... but Vinny at Hunting World can get you a great deal on all sorts of gun stuff. Check him out at the vendors' section. You'll find feedback from very happy customers. Me included

You can also try Effingers Sporting Goods right in Bound Brook, they are a 20 min drive up 287. They carry Rifle, shotgun, and hand guns.

 

I got my wife's .38 snubby from them and a ruger 10-22. I think they have Ok prices too.

Don't buy ammo there, they mark it up about 80%. Also their new guns are marked up wayyyy too much. There are deals to be had on the used/consignment racks, though.

[Krdshrk 3,878]

They barely have anything used though. Last time I was there they had maybe 2 pistols in the used case.
