See, this is nuts. I remember when ShoreShot tried charging $26 or $30 for a box of 9mm, and less flack for RTSP. Drez, I am really tempted to know when they showed the attitude, first I am hearing about it. In reality... "open your own range" should seldom be a response to any potential customer. Props to Bullet Hole for adjusting their sales prices and practices. $13 for a box of 9mm is VERY reasonable, especially for someone who rents ammo. If they are buying from a dealer/distributor, there is still plenty of profit in ammo. Buying ammo for $8 or even $10 a box, and selling it for $26, on top of charging $30 for an hour for a port, plus for the rental.... is a bit overkill in my book. Can they? Absolutely, but people do not forget things like that. Look at BA. There are only so many "new shooters" you can screw over charge as much as you want, eventually, those that become gun owners, will look elsewhere. Prime example, guys like Paul (pk90) and Tony have stellar reputation is because they do not consider themselves better than the gun community, and consider themselves part of it. Mastodon, Bulls Eye Tactical are on their way there. Totally awesome to see Nick and Chris show up to matches and shoots, and be one of the guys, and thoroughly try to help you. At every step, they always ask, what can we do to be better.

Seriously? When was this? Typical Princeton. I expected it out of the Borough, but not the township. The Township people still typically have half a brain.

When I was a cashier at Shoprite, my first job at 16.... real customer.... 1. Condoms 2. Whipped Cream 3. Disposable Razors

Anyone got videos? missed the match by a few days. damn. lol

I am in, just not sure if to shoot single stack or lim 10.... ah, decisions decisions.

Used to wear a mullet. (Z28), now have german Over-Engineering.... 3 series coupe e92. Looking into an S60R

Thank you Jon for doing them this month and Vlad for getting them up online, now I can go fly to Russia happy. lol.

+1 to what everyone else has mentioned. With the forum 95% of the firearms I purchase or sell are through here. Prices vary, however on the whole, some really good deals on here, especially once you factor in the FFL fee, shipping, nics, taxes you would incur buying from a dealer. Some deals are so good that people trample over who is in line. I can't say I have not joked around with sellers in chat about deleting other mod's "will take it" posts, so we can have the deal. lol. Other times, there are items that are fairly priced, but may not be very popular. On the whole... I would venture to guess 90 to 95% of the firearms listed are listed anywhere from very fairly priced to a STEAL. You do have a few items that are priced at or close to the full retail price, however nothing is preventing you from making an offer. As others mentioned, anyone can ASK whatever they want. You can Offer whatever you want. This is not Walmart. =P other point of consideration, over time, prices on firearms vary, as they did in 2008 before the Obama rush. AK's would hit close to $1k, and people were willing to pay that much for them. Same thing for Saiga's, both shotguns and rifles, when there were import issues. they have varied from $350 all the way to $800. On your common guns, you have your glocks, m&ps, XD's that will be around $400, metal guns a bit more. You can list a Glock 22 tomorrow, list it for $350 it will sell in 30 mins, list it for $400 it will sit a few days, and someone will offer you $350, or you can list it for $550 and someone will offer you $350. =) End of the day it will sell for anywhere between $350 to $400. The C&R stuff is going up in price every year. A good quality SKS will run you $400 and up depending on country of origin and condition, same for K98's, etc. Ar's will be in that $650 to $700 mark for used entry level ones. and $1k and up for higher end stuff.

Will have some later today. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Paul, last I checked, it was illegal to mail a handgun to yourself at a hotel or what not. Correct? Or is this FFL? I can be totally wrong here.

put it this way, unless you are using this for home defense or competition, I would not hesitate to use this ammo. Just when you shoot it, be cognizant of every shot, and STOP immediately if something feels odd. The issue WWB has been having cannot be seen from the outside. The flashhole, or lack of one, is inside the case, between the main case compartment and the primer pocket.

there are a few more on youtube. It looks very cool to watch it, unfortunately it provides very little if any benefits to me as a shooter as you only see the gun view. third person videos provide a ton more benefit as you can see the entire picture, how you are moving, reloading, etc. Besides, it does not weight a ton on your head. =)

Welcome to the club. Sunscreen should be in your shooters bag year round. Also wear a hat. Hope you son had a good time. By the way, very good job on your first stage design. Enjoyed it so much had to shoot it twice. time written down wrong. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

See, this is the problem... with JFK, you are guilty until proven innocent. The TSA does not care one way or the other, as long as gun is unloaded and checked. The issue is PANY cops and ticket counter people. Keep in mind... as per NYC laws, you cannot transport a gun through NYC without a NYC permit. In clear violation of FOPA. So while in the end you will be right, at first, they will jam you up. Unless I HAD TO, I would not travel out of JFK, especially when you can travel from EWR, PHL, or ACY with 0 issues.

Feel better bud!

Chris, you are a meanie. =) Until the forum existed, I had no clue the R14 existed or what the name of it was. We were all newbies once. =)

I have a single stage setup I can sell you with a ton of spares. An easier way to learn things, and decide where you want to go from there. Shoot me a pm.

The other pic. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

btw, the hollow points that competitors will use, are not really defensive hollow points as you may see on Speer Gold Dots, etc. In the picture above, is a good comparrison between fmj/round nose and hallow points. As you can see, not a true hollow point per say. From Left to Right... 1. 180 grain Hollow Point Extreme Plated 2. 180 grain FMJ Precision Delta 3. 124 grain Montana Gold JHP 4. 115 grain pulled bullet from Winchester? Or something like that. Will take another pic in a sec, showing the base. For those that do not reload... and are worried about lead levels... JHP (jacketed hollow points) and plated hallow points do not have an exposed lead base. So when the round is fired, the only exposed part is the hollow point of a JHP round. The plated hollow points or CMJ/TMJ (complete or total metal jacket) have no exposed lead base. Cleaner barrel, compensator, and less lead blown in your face.

Never met this guy... and I thought I knew all the glock sponsored shooters. =) He was not at Area 8. As far as I was aware it was only KC and Tori. Where did Glock put this advertisement up? Really awesome of them to do more of this to get others to shoot. Lately, they have been loosing ALOT of people (customers shooting glocks in matches) to CZ and S&W, with less extent Springfield and EAA/Tanfoglio. If you look overseas, on an international level... it is Mostly EAA/Tanfoglios and CZ that rule the competition world. I was considering a Glock 34 and 35 and shooting production division next year, will finish out the year with Limited 10 @ nationals with the SVI. Mr. Wombat... quite a few people shoot hollow points. I have switched exclusively to hollow points for matches. 1. Cleaner holes 2. cleaner gun (no exposed lead being pushed) 3. Better accuracy as the center of gravity is towards the back of the bullet as opposed to the front.

Pretty much. Single stage fantastic for precision loading or rifle rounds... quite a bit slow for pistol... (where you do not usually have to trim or deburr the cases). Turret press is a decent option to get started on.

I have an extra universal mag pouch if you need it, just find me.

Wow, that is dedication. On call? why not stick around and see? I will be there with my stage, before going to Russia.

Effingers is a pretty large store, love the fish tank in the middle. Worth a visit. Their prices on ammo were reasonable when other stores were gouging. Prices on firearms were pretty high though. Employees were average at best and you can absolutely tell they did not really have a lot of personal interest.

I am preaching to the choir here. Does reloading ammo save you money (per box).... YES Does reloading ammo save you money? NO You tend to load alot more and shoot alot more. lol. I am at about 15,000 rounds a year for handgun stuff now. Time... absolutely has to be taken into consideration. I have my reloading press setup at the office, so if I am on a long conference call, where I am just listening in, I will usually put on the headset and go load a few rounds. With the Hornady Lock n Load with Case Feeder, I can easily do about 400 rounds an hour. I do not reload too much 9mm, mostly 40 cal, and I do save money. For match grade loads... This is for 40 cal. Cost / round $ .122 Cost / 50 $6.09 Cost / 1000 $121.8 VihtaVuori N320 Powder $96/4 lb, CCI primers @ $25/k, 4.9 grains of powder, range pickup brass, Xtreme Plated bullets which were on special for $80/k. I can get that down to under $4.56 a box of $40 cal if I use Winchester powder, 4 lb jug for around $64, and lead or moly coated bullets. For 9mm, it will be maybe $.50 less. The bigger the caliber, the more you can save, especially rifle rounds. Really, you can't look at reloading just for money savings, as others mentioned, it is the piece of mind in your ammunition and quality components, as well as the pride that you made your own. Lastly, with all the incidents and crap quality of commercial ammo recently (Winchester White Box with no flash hole, Fiochi, and others), I would be more afraid to shoot commercial than my own... especially since with a proper setup you can eliminate most problems seen in factory ammo, such as... 1. No flash hole - During reloading, step one is the resize, deprime. Even if it is new brass, it would punch a hole through. Reloading eliminates that problem. 2. Squib or Double Charge - If you invest $40 in an RCBS lock out die, this will NOT happen. The lock out die, once you calibrate it, will prevent the press from going on if it detects too much or too little powder. the issue you still have to look for are case uniformity, bulges, and missing or flipped primers. If you load your ammo into 100 round ammo boxes, a few mins, placing the ammo bullet down, primers up, you can make sure all primers are there, and you can check visually for major variations in the over all length. Bulges you would have to manually inspect them... or before a match, (for match ammo), you would hand check each round in the chamber, or get a chamber checker gauge. With Lee dies, I have not had any issues with 9mm or 40s&w glocked brass, as Lee dies tend to resize the brass closest to the rim. Secondly you can run the factory crimp die which will also give a nice post loaded resize to the case. RCBS dies I had issues with, Lee dies, never.
