Hi All,

I recent got my FID and 2 - P2P. I am fairly new to Linden, originally from New York. It took about 100 days total to get permits in hand. Just picked myself up a Glock 19 and I'm debating on my second purchase, between a revolver and a .45. I am also interested in obtaining an AR rifle. Not sure exactly what will be my next purchase.

 

Being new to Linden can anyone suggest a good range that's local. I would also like to have a go to gun shop. I have experience with firearms in general but my first purchase experience wasn't great.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Welcome, I live right next to Linden, as for ranges you have Bullet Hole in Belleville I've only been there once, it was fine but kind of small. The other two ranges I went to were in PA in Easton. Heritage Guild's range I went to once and it was great (you can even rent fully automatic weapons there), and the range I am a member of, Easton Fish and Game, which is a great range I go to every couple of months. Gun shops, well I like Heritage Guild in Rahway and Bullseye in Woodbridge. I also went to Federal Firearms in Delaware. Great for Long Gun purchases, no tax and the owner is great. I bought my Glock two years ago at East Brunswhick Sportsman which has since reopened as something else but I forgot the name.

Welcome, Neighbor.  If you're looking for a private range, there's Lake Island in Carteret and OBRPC in Old Bridge.  I'm a member at SCFGPA in Bridgewater.  Go see Steve at Monmouth Arms - he gets a good stock in for ARs and handguns, and can order pretty much anything you want.

 

Did it really take that long to get your FID in Linden?  I'm keeping mine at my other residence in New Brunswick for the time being, but I will probably want to change it soon.  What was the hold up?

Thanks for all the info! I will be checking into them.

Exactly 100 days, no joke. The reason I was given is due to the "number of applications" they are processing. I was given that excuse when I initially submitted my application. Now I'm regretting only applying for 2 permits.

Welcome. I'm right down the road in Colonia. The closest gun shop is going to be Heritage on Rt. 27 in Rahway. Their prices tend to be little high but not too bad. They have some decent salesman there. Some are better then others. I personally don't like Bullseye Tactical in Woodbridge. Nearest range would probably be Lake Island in Carteret. It's a private club and has it's limitations but it's convenient and relatively cheap. It's basically a pistol range only(.22 rifles are allowed though). When I want to shoot rifles I head out to Easton Fish and Game.

I agree with you about Bullseye, made my first purchase there and I wasn't thrilled with the experience.

Not to jack the OPs thread but, I went into Bullseye twice with permit and cash in hand and ended up walking out without buying anything. After going once more with a friend to buy a comp for his AR I swore I would never go back again. Horrible customer service. I really wanted to like the place too since it's right down the road.

      The Tax Man Commeth

      By leahcim · Posted

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
