How to hide Booze in any picture.

There are a variety of mags you can use, but the 10 round 9mm mags are in the $30 range. Wilsons are great. Tripps are great too. Have not tried Dawson mags. I picked up my wilson mags on gunbroker for about $25 or $30 a pop., you only need 5 or 6.

Most new gun owners, will buy a handgun. Then.... they will end up buying a few more handguns, say up to 5, then discover rifles... and buy a ton of those. However... my handguns still get shot more than rifles. easier, more convenient. Past year, I have shot countless pistol matches, and only 2 rifle matches (cmp garand). I do however own more rifles than handguns. Rifles for me, are at least... 3 or so purpose built... AR, 22 plinker, bolt action precision . The rest are all collectibles. Handguns... are a big mix, collectibles, shooters, plinkers, etc. As a result of the permit system... I am less likely to sell a handgun I purchase, I used a permit on. Edit: Also because crazy people at most NJ ranges will not let you run and gun with a rifle.

No no bryan, perfection would be a 3 lb trigger pull instead of current 4.5 =P and sights.

Lets not go crazy here.

Oh I absolutely agree you must be able to hit the star... =P Personally I love them. The only one I had issue on was last spring, Slav did a star with a weighted start.... the activator started moving it... and everything in my head went out th window..... that was "entertaining".

This is how the 1911 S&W Pro series gets sold.... you let someone shoot it. =P It is a fantastic gun that I have run through countless matches, and never had one issue with the gun. The only thing is the sights, which are standard fixed, white dot. I am considering changing out the front for a fiber optic and the back to regular clear black. Otherwise though, the gun with the fixed sights, is spot on with all the ammo I have shot through it, from 115 to 147 grain.

He just had to post it after me shooting the star right? =P Humn, I have not used the star in a stage design in the past few months..... ideas for next month. <gamer> Sometimes, if you know you are going to waste alot of time trying to attempt the star, shoot what you can, and if you must quit, make sure you at least take the 5 shots at it (FTE penalties), and stop..... instead of wasting another 30 seconds and running out of ammo anyway. =) </gamer> But if you are like ray ray and just want to hit all the steel/paper you paid match fee for.... do it. =)

Not funny per say but really interesting.

This one I was really laughing on the floor. lol.

Figured why not... people need to have some laughs. Rules... nothing not safe for work, nothing not in good taste.

+1.... and say NJ was a CCW state... and say these kids decided to paint the tips black. Would of been an interesting article. I think airsoft is a great training tool, and I do not think they should be regulated as firearms, however the parents need to get in and actually parent. Kids are getting real stupid these days (or I am just getting older).... they need to know that these airsoft, unlike paintball guns, look and feel just like real guns, and as such should be treated as such. Btw, for anyone who thinks airsoft are just toys.... go look at a real airsoft gun, one that costs more than $20. They are all metal, exact replicas, most of them licensed to have the exact badges, and short of shooting, feel just like the real thing in your hand. I had the pleasure of shooting a Glock and FN Scar 16 airsofts. when they were handed to me, I did not know they were real until looking at the muzzle and actually shooting them. Weight, feel, all as real as the real ones. The difference is the projectile.

And once again... to clarify.... there is the law, and there is best practice. There is what is legal as defined under the statutes, and then there is all the administrative codes, and then the interpretations by the state police... so even though you are right under the law, do you have free time to go to courts to explain it to the judge? This all goes back to being right, or being effective. Much like, you can legally fly out of NYC Laguardia or JFK with a handgun, (FOPA), but do you really feel like spinning the dice on if you are going to get arrested by PANYNJ cops for illegal possession in NYC as you check in for your flight.

Jim, I don't think this has anything to do with being ashamed of being a gunowner, and much more to do with privacy and advertising. Sending the card just like that would be the equivalent to requiring people to use their real names instead of usernames, and your address, verified by a utility bill, being listed for all to see. Its one thing to drive around with an NRA sticker on your car, and totally different to advertise you are a gun owner and your address. and do you really want your post office people to know you are a gun owner? as much as I am against the tinfoil hats... would savings $.30 per membership id card to stuff it in an envelope really break CR? This is just a boner move on their part. If I was a member, I would be emailing all the reps and board of directors at CR.

And I just finished the scores, they are off to vlad, and should be posted in the new few days.

cool beans, and I am a douche, Ryan, thank you for helping setup the stage. =)

Btw, thank you guys for making it out, about to go do the scores. Thank you Andy, Bob, andy's Son, for making it out and helping paste, set steel, and tear down the match. Could not of done it without you guys. Frank, was a pleasure to run the squad with you and thanks for the videos! Thank you bud.

Dan, the street price of the pro series is mid 1100 to 1250. Glad you liked it, it is a great gun, and no better way to try before you buy than in a gun game. hehe. a few above shooting 10 rounds in a port.

How did you like the Smith Pro series? change your mind?
