Suggest a .9MM Handgun
Buy it, clean it, shoot it. =) I would avoid CCI Blazer ammo for the first few hundred rounds. As we recently found out at a match, Blazer (aluminum) is a soft round, that I had issues with cycling the gun. It would cause FTE (failure to eject). Ammo was only 115 pf or so, right at 1000 fps for 115 grain bullet. After break in, it cycled fine, but try any commercial Winchester White Box, American Eagle, or Federal ammo, and it should be fine. I know Hk recommends breaking the gun in with 147 grain ammo, and to shoot a min of 124, however after a while, 115 should cycle just fine. Issue of stiff spring. What you can do is change out the recoil spring to a reduced power one, but I would avoid it unless you know what you are doing and load your own. Someone more qualified than me should post more or otherwise.

ar 15 build thoughts?
Dont know a ton, but will share my opinion on what I do know. Daniel Defense LPK is top notch, what I used in my AR, no issues. BCM is highly rated. Flash hider is illegal in NJ for all intensive purposes if you plan on having a pistol grip or a removeable magazine. =) Needs to be a muzzle break/compensator, that is permanently attached, especially since it is a 14.5" barrel.

2 to 3k is not crazy numbers... just a busy weekend. =P XD is a great gun. Very ergonomic and my second choice in a striker fired gun after the M&P. I will soon have a Walther PPQ that will be my production division gun and will see plenty of action. Look at the Hk P30L and Hk 45 torture test.... over 90k rounds, and went bang every time, with an average of 5 to 10k rounds between cleanings.

But most cops also do not have a choice as to what they carry. Bureacrats make decisions about what guns the department will buy. Furthermore, I did not state striker fired guns are unreliable. I stated they can be finicky, especially if there was trigger work done to them. In any case, I have seen more light primer strikes and other problems on striker fired guns as opposed to a da/sa or sao hammer gun. Just my humble opinion. Furthermore... just to qualify this a tad more... I have now about 5k rounds through my tanfo = 0 failures to go bang besides a death jam on a bad case. About 10k through my Smith 1911 9mm, 0 failures to go bang. My XD with about 500 rounds through, and Glock 37 with around 200 rounds through it had about 15 fail to go bang.

Primer Group Buy?
I just noticed I am down to 2000 small pistol primers.... Anyone need primers or want to ship hazmat if shipping, or if any gun shows coming up? Looking for CCI or Fed Small pistol. Alternatively, I have some Large Rifle and Small Rifle I would trade for Small Pistol if anyone wants. (CCI & Wolf)

My nightstand gun was an Hk P30L, until I sold it. Then a Sig P226, until I sold it. =P Right now there is an AR, and an east german Makarov. I still have a bit of a hesitation to have striker fired gun on the nightstand, especially if there is work done to them to lighten the trigger, for that reason I would go Hk P30L, or Sig P226. Every round they went bang. a CZ 75 is also good, once broken in. Other option for me right now is a Baby Eagle 45, however as it is still practically new, the springs are not fully in yet, although I am sure a hotter load will function 100%.

Be honest you named all your firearms, share it with us.
Um, never even crossed my mind to name my guns... I name my fish... Sig, Kimber, etc... but I stopped after 3. The only nickname I have for my gun is one... Block for my G37 =)

the return of Radek?
The total real life people (not including auto spam bots) banned from this forum in 2 and a half years is under 6 or 7. Two people emailed to ask for reconsideration, after figuring out this is not a large national forum where you can hide behind your keyboard, and have become fine upstanding citizens, and 1 is on my short list for mods when the need arises. Radek was given many many many chances. He was given a full ban, however because of deals, he could be logged in to check his pm's. Only reason why he still has access is because there was one deal he was involved in that went sour after a year. He did come back and try to register with a different username, but that was quickly swatted, in reality, he would be better off doing that and trying to fly under the radar. While to my knowledge he did not screw up any deals, he was a douchebag whether he intended it or not, worst of all, he was not doing it on purpose, that is who he was. The same culture where you treat your women like crap. The whole entiteled mentality like we all owe him something. Case in point, he emailed me yesterday, demanding to be allowed back, and what username I should re-instate, because Ray Ray request that he be allowed back.

Gun show purchase....
Here is why the law is there... One of the MANY LEO/State Police/AG's office people who READ and MONITOR the forum find this thread, and decide you are mentally incapable of possessing a firearm. Thus, unable to pass Nics. So you go out of state, and buy a firearm illegally out of state. The seller is breaking the law by not checking your ID, and so are you. Morality has nothing to do with the law. You may agree with it, or not, but that is what it is. Your intent, whether it is to legally own it, or you are going to resell it to Mexican Cartels, or to crack heads in Newark makes no difference. Where do you draw the line? SBR's? NFA items? how about RPG's?

You can kill a bum and burry him in the backyard. It's an honor system too. What's the point? All of the laws are based on the honor system.

Gun show purchase....
In gun loving states you still can only transfer to people living in your state with verifying their information. You cannot transfer a gun to an out of state resident face to face. Transfer/Purchase is the same crap.

It is state law that face to face are only between residents of the state. You are breaking NJ, and seller is breaking their state law. You my friend, get the radek of the year award.- Time Period You Guys Have Been Seeing...
The least I ever asked for was 6.- Time Period You Guys Have Been Seeing...
Once again, you can ask for as many as you want. The number of permits you request should not make a difference in anything. This is so not Pc, but grow a pair and ask for 6. There is nothing to be afraid of or worry about. 6 permits are not a lot. The town cannot limit the number of permits you ask for. If they say anything, of which there is a remote chance, show the the letter that was linked.- USPSA / Shongum 11/5
