Too soon?

Don't do it, run, run away as fast as you can. Airguns are an addiction. Once you start there's no going back. You may think you can quit but many before you have failed. Oh you say you just want back yard plinker and pest rifle. Suddenly your back yard will taken over by tin cans and spinner targets. Then you need several air pistols, one won't do because shooting with a buddy is better. What ever you buy first, you'll end up wanting something better as you learn more about airguns. Special tools, spring compressors, tune kits, 200 bar air compressors, bullet molds, there's no end to it. Slowly you'll turn to the dark side, PCP yes PCP as seductive as the drug. Once you shoot one you never want to pump a crappy crosman again. Carbon fiber air tanks will be coveted like Gollum and his presious. The quest for power will take hold. You will seek larger calibers, .25, .308, .458 and .50 cal. Your friends will shake their heads in disbelief and point to their temple as tell them about lunching 400gr slugs with air, not gun powder. No one will believe what you paid for them. You will get the " you could have bought real guns" line and you won't care. You'll seek larger quarry, make hunting trips to states that allow air gun to be used for deer and hogs. Anybody can shoot a deer with a shotgun, boring. You may get drawn to competitve airgun shooting or collecting antiques from the past, airguns have been around since the 1600's. Your powder burners will be evicted from the safe because the airguns are more valuable. You'll be penny less because there's always a shiny new or old and crusty one to buy. It never ends. : )

It really depends upon what you're trying to do with your shotty. Please tell me whatcha wanna do from the list below so I can recommend specific places to visit: Clays? Skeet, Trap, Sporting Clays? Some clubs frown on certain shotty's. Def. no shockwaves or riot (HD) guns at Lehigh FYI! Standing in a shooting port at an indoor range shooting paper & zombies? Bench resting at 50 & 100 yards outdoors shooting magnum slugs? Offhand at 50 yards w/ slugs? Knockdown Steel at a private club's outdoor range using birdshot? 3-Gun USPSA Action Shooting? That scratches the surface as far as pumpin' lead thru yer scattergun...the world is your oyster. All you need to do is tell us whatcha wanna do so I can come up with the proper answers.

I reached out to the trooper in charge of my case. He's still waiting for fingerprints to come back. However we have a tentative date for initial inspection on Friday, 6/6 at 9am!!! Things are moving again. Thank God.

I don't know about you all, but target shooting is a non-contact sport as far as I'm concerned and Murphy said non-contact sports can reopen...

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome, I was raised in Union and worked in Newark!

Is your friend Ryan? Extremterrain.com Is a good one Morris 4x4.com is also another good one When looking at lift kits I recommend old man emu. My wrangler rides better than stock and 100% of the suspension is old man emu. There is litterally nothing stock as far as the suspension and steering on my jeep.

They won't be barren. It's not active in the soil, and it breaks down quickly. It only kills plants that are up at the time of spraying--it has to hit a leaf in order to work. Plants that sprout after application won't be affected. It's used that way on a gazillion acres of no-till crops, where there is serious cash on the line for the farmers, and planting a couple of days after spraying is the norm.

Sounds like I should find something new stock and then customize the wheels and lift. Thanks everyone for your input.

Their website doesn't seem to address port sharing, though it does say that for now only immediate family members can be guested in. I can say that last Friday afternoon, there were two guys sharing a gun and a port on the pistol range (one shooting, one seated, then they'd swap). The RO didn't say anything when he wandered by. But for most of the time I was there, they and I were the only ones on the range--can't be sure if things would have been different if the range was crowded or if they'd both been in the port at the same time.

A short engagement, then a quick civil ceremony, I suppose!

Claimed Needs a new rope but the pulley is present. 225# rating, 32’ total, 29’ working length, 24’8” max standing height (I don’t quite get that math, that’s just what’s on the label) it was here when we moved in, I don’t need two. Basking Ridge. Come get it.

There's a revolver?

There isn't a restricted handgun list in NJ that I'm aware of at all, so any pistol under 50oz. should be legal here. That's assuming we are talking about your typical auto loader or revolver of course, and not something "scary" looking with banned features. The Masada does not fall into that category. Mag capacity may be an issue, but you could buy the pistol and find mags later (although that'll cost you more and you'll be with a non-functional pistol in the meantime). There's at least one Masada 10+1 on gunbroker.

Sounds like your friend needs better friends.

I have learned that a lot of dealers, not all, but the majority are misinformed/ unaware of actual law. Then there are a few that are down right deceitful just to make a sale or up-sell an uninformed individual. Again, this is not all of the dealers, and I have in fact met some awesome ones. I would say as a consumer, it is imperative that you do your own research regarding not only pricing, and the law, but proper/ safe operation and maintenance of your firearm.

They are full of it. It might be that they can’t find a ni compliant sku anywhere though. I can find mags but not the 10 round sku in stock anyplace.

Wonder how many will be arrested for violating social distancing guidelines? Oh wait that’s only for peaceful 2A protests ....

I’ve been doing a lot of bird watching lately.

For the people who come across this thread later on and during this pandemic. I finally found my gun. I ended up calling and emailing a bunch of the vendors suggested here, as well as others I found online. They're all telling me the same thing. 1. They don't have a lot of items they normally have in stock 2. They can't order it because they're already on order, it's whenever they can get a shipment 3. Suppliers are having delays shipping due to shortened hours, staff and inventory. The silver lining, there were a few other options I came across, which another new gun owner might not know about. On another thread someone suggested using this tool, which emails the vendors on the forum. I did this before calling all the other places. https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/forms/2-handgun-price-request/ I also found the gun online at 2 locations: https://www.kygunco.com/ https://www.sportsmansguide.com/ Came across this site and it was pretty useful, but tough to navigate: https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/320xc-9-bxr3-r2-10 Did some research and considered ordering online and shipping it to one of the FFL suggested. I almost did this before I got a notification that a vendor on here JT Custom Guns, replied to my request saying his warehouse has one. Jack seems to have good reviews and is reputable on this forum. The price he quoted was consistent with the costs I've seen online including transfer fees, so I called him up to put the order through, so far he's been really professional, responsive and informative. Definitely a tough time to get into this hobby, but on the positive side, I've probably done more research now than I normally would have. Definitely use the NJGF price request first and then start calling places.
