  1. The new FNS is a really pistol. Had the pleasure of playing with one at Shot Show and enjoyed it. Dave Sevigny shot one for a bit.
  2. I would contact Shane45. He is the go to rifle guy in my book. =) He is also the gunsmith now for TJ Sporting Arms.
  3. there was someone selling one right here on the forum. check in njgf list.
  4. If someone is truly nuts, in the eyes of numerous people, they should not have it. Point blank. Who wants to pay for a Dr.? Its one thing if it is a neighbor or two, but if she has a record (1) and there is a risk (2), er on the side of caution. If she had no history and just a bad reference, it would be a different story, but when there is more evidence suggesting she is nuts than not... better believe I am not for it. Would she pass a nics check? The key difference between a gun and a car.... a car, if it is a bad accident you are likely to get hurt and not likely to run away. With a gun, different story. Too many fries short of a happy meal to pass.

    I used to think so too. A No powder one, or one with a very low charge would absolutely feel and sound differently. After I got my hornady lock n load and was getting a hang of things, and before I got the lock out die, there would be times that the powder measure would not cycle all the way and it would not throw enough powder, typically 1 or 2 grains, as opposed to 5 grains for a 40 cal load. In my tanfoglio, these low powder loads would cycle the slide and sound perfectly fine, with the only indication being not able to chamber the next round as the bullet would fortunately get lodged in the beginning of the barrel. Was able to rectify the situation before it went kaboom. At other times, as an RO, you can make out a squib fairly easily from the side, and able to stop someone before they cause damage to themselves and the gun. Better to have the shooter Re-shoot, then to potentially cause damage to themselves, their gun, and most importantly myself or others standing by. Have seen squibs from factory ammo as well as reloads.

    And invest $30 into an RCBS powder Lock out Die. =)
  7. C-More STS and RTS, Burris Fast Fire, Doctor, Leupold Deltapoint are all options. Would be good to use for steel matches.
  8. Good call Matt. Thanks for your effort.
  9. Range 702 was mostly for locals. The fact is, there is room for a nicer range. Like Club Object in Moscow. =)

    Could of happen with any ammo. Likely saved the gun by shooting the KKM barrel and not the OEM. OEM would be a far bigger KB.
  11. 17 revolver guys out of 443 shooting the Limited/Production/Revolver match. Was not there for that one. Shot the second one, which was Open/Lim 10 http://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-display-match-results-detail.php?indx=6441
  12. But the other topic... being at the gun show... and being outside of the socialist state.... where there are no permit systems, no OGAM, no banned list, no mag limits.... I still felt safe. Go figure. Every time you leave the state you realize how f'ed up "reasonable gun control" is. I was accepting of some of the stuff, but I am 100% certain, all of these feel good laws above and beyond NICS is complete BS designed to keep the people in power in power. Absolute power corrupts absoutely
  13. I should of been more specific... indoor ranges. The two ranges I visited in Las Vegas, Range 702 and American Shooters really take indoor ranges to a 5 star category. Big, airy, clean ranges, with a TON of space, great circulation, extremely friendly employees, EXTREMELY reasonable ammo prices to buy or for rentals ($12 a box of 9mm). by space... put it this way... BA, has about 15k sf including the range, the store, the classrooms on the side and more space in the back. Range 702 is 55k Square feet with about 35 shooting lanes split into 5 sections. That does not include the prep room, the massive store, the VIP areas, or the cafe. Did I mention $10 walk on fees? $5 if you were a local. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/40941-going-ballistic-the-range-702-55000-square-feet-of-it-armed-for-success/page__hl__ballistic__fromsearch__1 for the review of Range 702
  14. Seems like USPSA years are flying by as fast as the forum adding members and years. Just got back from a quick trip to Las Vegas for my second, USPSA Open/Lim 10 nationals. So here is what I learned: 1. Eric Grauffel is the BEST shooter in the world, by far, winning both the Open and Production matches by a good margin. 2. I improved. Shooting Lim 10, finished 69th this year, vs 96th last year, against the best in the world. 3. Know the rules, should of pull a target. 4. NJ Gun Laws SUCK! 5. NJ ranges have a long way to improve. Went to a Las Vegas gun show with goodies gallore. Went to the newest Las Vegas indoor Range, Range 702.... was a pleasure guys, thanks for the vip treatment. Will discuss the points in detail in the near future, here is the shooting video for those interested.
  15. I sold my shotty a while ago. Just don't have time for trap, although it is fun. I am thinking one more major match before end of year......
  16. I really hope the match is on.... I mean come on, it will not come until Tuesday. =P
  17. If you want gun games, look at the m&p 40 in the marketplace Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
  18. There are factory 15 round magazines for the M&P avail in a number of places. Not pinned... but factory. Then you are back to Compact vs Full Size gun, and I would go full size.
  19. Wx will be Monday.... but it is usually scrubbed and that is it. no make up.

    Shane45 does an AMAZING job on the Scar. Would not let anyone else butcher one.... especially such an expensive gun.
  21. So speaking of 5.7, found out something interesting. Was at Range 702 and spoke with one the managers there. Fiochi or S&B is opening up a plant in Nevada, in any case, they do produce 5.7 ammo, however they cannot sell it in their own branding due to contracts with FNH, so most of their production goes to them. The range barely had enough to keep up with the rentals of 5.7
  22. Have a semi compact Baby Eagle 1 45 ACP (no rail), may sell. Great guns, they use the the large tanfoglio frame magazines, 10 rounds of 45 ACP in a very very ergonomic package. Some mags had issues.
  23. Matt, who is organizing the match? I thought it was you, or that is what Dave M said when we chatted in Vegas.
