Finally joining CJRPC the 25th !!!

Recommended Posts

Can you shoot a 9mm carbine like the storm on the indoor range or in the pits?

 

Indoor range is a no, pits yes, with restrictions.

 

You have to have a special use badge and the velocity can be no more than 1000 ft/s with lead bullets only, according to CJ's site.

EDIT - 1000ft/s doesn't make much sense to me. Some handguns will get their shots over 1000ft/s...

They are catering to the cowboy action shooters with leverguns, not folks with modern carbines.

I live close by and if you wanna check it out during the week, pm me and I will take you over.

 

Even better Bry@n. I'll PM you later in the week. I'm eager to see your club. I appreciate your offer to take me over during the week. Thank you!

For the outdoor rifle and pistol ranges, is there a minimum target distance? For example, if I am shooting on the rifle range and also want to mix in some pistol, can I set up my target stands at 100, 50 and 15?

 

Hopefully NOT! Most Clubs make you put your target stands up against the berms, and for good reason! It's all about your "Cone of Fire" and how bullets impact the ground and can skip or ricochet up over the berms. RULES aren't there to piss you off, they're there for SAFETY. Not sayin' that you're not the exception who actually looks to see where the rounds impact behind the target frames, but I've seen plenty of lazy knuckleheads get chewed-out for placing frames mid-range and then standing-up to shoot them.

 

The RULES protect us all from the Knuckleheads' rounds that could skip over the berms!

At Dix the berm is way in the back, and the target stands can be setup at multiple distances, same for Easton, same for Shongum. So this is not the case at CJ? I would only be able to shoot pistol at 25/50, and rifle at either 200 or 300? So why is this club so popular and has over 2500 members?

Target stands must be 6 feet tall so there are no richochets off the ground. You may set up targets at different distances.

 

Having high target stands ONLY can enable rounds to impact the berm correctly. Where folks get into trouble is bringing old election signs (or other short items) to use as target backers, then pushing their wire prongs into the ground so that the bull is only a foot off of the ground.

 

CJ supplies HIGH Targets Stands. At Old Bridge folks bring all shapes and sizes, so the "NO mid-range Targets Rule" is enforced. So just be aware of where you are so you abide by the local Rules. I just didn't want anyone to get into trouble thinking that all ranges are the same. Some won't even let you carry unloaded in a holster......

 

Have a good night!

Well.. . I was there and unfortunately don't think I met anyone of you there. Tons of folks there though. Maybe I'll figure out who each of you are at the meeting next Wed.

Same here!

I do think I know who the asian with the Subaru is though! LOL!

    • Looking to pick up a Kriss vector  in 9mm.  Let me know what you got.   Thanks Chris  
    • 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.
    • 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.
