Actually, Dan hit it on the head. The fact is, there were a few others there outside, mostly NJ and other out of state people. For a robber, it is like shooting fish in a barrel. There are no law abiding people there who will do anything to stop him. Had this wedding been in PA, or hey, say even Philly, there is a very good chance there would of been at least a few people out of the 100+ who had a CCW. Better yet, the robbers would think twice knowing that any 70 year old granny can be packing. Prime example of feel good legislation that does absolutely nothing. Criminals do not follow laws. Something Mayor Mike and others do not seem to understand.

It is a few blocks from the projects, I dated a girl who lived almost on the same corner, no real issues. Even still. WTF.

They worked extremely well tonight too. Was at one of my relatives weddings in Brooklyn. The best man, went outside for a cigarette, got robbed at gunpoint, with a few others outside. Way to go Bloomberg. Of course the cops show up (reactively) and take a report, who knows if the bad guys will ever get caught. Fortunately everyone was ok.... but I really got me emotionally stunned, being right there, and being absolutely disarmed that you cannot do anything against it. Just another reason to get out of the state, both NJ or NY. Until it hits so close to home, you do not realize exactly how defenseless we are, and the government cannot do jack shit to protect any one of us or our friends or loved ones.

It is a pocket carry gun... it will not be a typical range toy, I would not worry about ammo costs. =) put a few boxes down range to make sure the gun functions fine, and then bring it out every so often. Shoot them both.

Best part about this.... for the least likely future, no sales tax on cabelas.com as long as no store in NJ. Will be a fantastic complex in DE... my ex worked for Citigroup around there, and stopped by Christiana a few times, tons of stores, great shopping. Yet close enough for us.

Don't fall in love with steel. James, come shoot USPSA Central Jersey next Sunday, it is what a more traditional USPSA match is. =) Shongum is a terrific match, however some stage designs are more limited based on the space avail and all. CJ and OB are more like 6 or 7 stages like Stage 4 and 5 at shongum.

Fun match as always. Glad to see some familiar faces along with some new faces. I think we had one DQ...on another squad, props to the shooter for stopping before what seems like RO even noticed. James, so what did you think of your first USPSA match? For anyone trying to get more proficient with their firearm, this is absolutely the way to do it... even if you have NO interest in competing for score.

What is the price difference? Both seem fairly close. I really like the XDS. The Nano is a really nice gun too.

Bryan, I have to go into the city on Tuesday I think... I may drop by.

On which? Actually, the XD-S in 45 ACP was not much worse, and possibly a little bit more .... predictable and consistent, over the Beretta Nano... from what I recall... however they were both WORLDS better than the Ruger LCP and Lc9

A few members here own or owned one at some point. When I fired it, it shot well, nice CCW firearm. I don't have anything negative to say about it. Other alternative that I really love, the Springfield Armory XD-S in 45 ACP.

Running a tad low and was going to place an order for 1 or 2 4lb jugs. Anyone want to split and save on hazmat?

Were the gun cases empty? =)

This is the Ishot bag. http://www.ishot-inc.com/store/Gurkha_Backpack_Range_Bag

Get a dedicated range bag. Midway bags are a good cheap bag. If you want backpack style, get an IShot. Gurkha backpack. Totally awesome for a range bag. I use a Brownells competition deluxe bag and extremely happy with it. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

There is member here, Bill, that does alot of them.

one caveat.... he met with community leaders before he opened the store, they told him about the Holocaust, and he still did not? I agree with one of the commentators on the site... better he learn from the mistake now.... then having the store go bankrupt from the outrage. Not knowing who Hitler was is as stupid as thinking Slavery is still legal, women do not have a right to vote, or not knowing who Jesus is.

http://news.yahoo.com/hitler-clothing-store-stirs-anger-india-133743884.html A guy calls his store "Hitler" Claims he did not know who he was, and now wants to be reimbursed for changing the name.

+1. Please tell me this does not happen at NJ matches? Its bad enough to see that crap at gun shows, I would shit a brick to see it at one of the local matches. Yes, they have the right to their beliefs, but it does not mean anyone has to feed that hatred. I have no respect for people like that, and sincerely hope no one like that is associated on the forum.

email it to matt to look over. or I would love to look over it.

So you are the guy who cannot add up the A's, B's, C, D's, on the scoresheets? Got it, will take note. =)

+1 Vlad. Frank... that was my challenge when I started doing stages.. then I realized, almost any idea... was something that I started thinking about, or a stage I shot at a major match, but would of wanted something changed and went on from there. Like the stages that I sent Matt for this month's CJ match.... was a stage where the idea came from an Area 8 stage... however morphed into what we will have. Other times, watching videos of major IPSC matches overseas, and then figure... how can we make it work for us here. The biggest challenge is that relatively all of the pits are the same size... and most of my ideas are for huge huge wide pits. =P Ooops.

Glad I can help.

Damn, would love to shoot this.... same weekend as USPSA Nationals. Have fun guys. Iggy, will be in touch.
