Purple Patrick 638 Posted July 23, 2012 Hey all my names Patrick and I'm new to the njgf. Just recently applied for my FID to purchase my first rifle and can not wait! Im looking to get into the bolt action game and get a Stevens 200 .308 as my first rifle . Eventually id like to build an ar before they get banned. In the family we already have a sig p226 9mm, a Mossberg 500 20g, and a sears and Roebuck 20g from the 50's! We also inherited 3 old handguns 2 from the 1910's and one from the 30's. Also a very old double barrelled shotgun. I have pretty much no info besides there names and serial numbers so maybe someone can point me in the right direction to find more info. It's nice to meet all you guys and hopefully I can contribute to your community Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueLineFish 615 Posted July 23, 2012 Welcome to the forums. As far as getting info about the guns i suggest you post pics in a separate thread. A lot of knowledgeable people on the boards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XDJohnTact 49 Posted July 23, 2012 I retired in 2005. Taught Industrial Arts & Technology classes. Most of the good shops were long gone before you entered the school. Back in the day, we had some awesome printing, metal, automotive and electronics shops. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

when_shtf 4 Posted July 24, 2012 If anyone is interested in taking me to a range and letting me shoot your rifles I'd love to buy the ammo and some lunch I'm not sure if you are from Warren county or Warren Township or just plain 'ol Warren, but if you are close to Easton PA, Heritage Guild rents rifles and handguns so you can buy before you try. If the range officer (RO) knows it's your first time out, he'll help get you acquainted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heavyopp 167 Posted August 17, 2012 Warren twsp. About 40 minutes from Easton butthey just opened a heritage guild right by my girlfriends in branchburg nj That heritage doesn't rent guns --- No range there -- You rent a gun, shoot it at their range, then return the gun. You never leave their building. Has to be Heritage in easton. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
