  1. Also was reading on beretta forums about the 40 cal compact having massive issues of trigger slap. I do believe I saw a few PX4's at BA. Dont recall if compact or full size.

    happy birthday vin, I call dibs on the brass...
  3. I respect your opinion however I am begging to know why. Why is a 9mm just as good as a 22LR to learn how to shoot? Personally, I believe that it is far easier to learn bad habits and mistakes on a larger caliber handgun than on a 22 caliber pistol... better yet, a 22 caliber revolver. Unless you own a handgun, and until you do, you really dont know what you like, or dislike, what you can shoot better, what gun is best to the type of shooting you do and the type of shooter and gun owner that you are. A 22 caliber pistol will be by far the cheapest way to throw your money out if you make a mistake. A Good 22lr semi auto will run you $250, such as a Smith Wesson 22A. A $100 worth of ammo is 5 bricks, so somewhere between 5,000 and 5,500 rounds of ammo to go practice with, and to really hone in what you want. How many times do we see someone buy a brand X gun, only to realize they made a mistake by seeing how it fits in the hand and reading a review of how this gun is chosen by X agency, or X gun was in this movie.... ie, how many people bought Glocks because in a rap song they are reliable, or a Desert Eagle because Neo can shoot it one handed in The Matrix. How many people buy a Sub Compact Glock 26, or a 40 Caliber Glock 23 as their first handgun? Till the first shot and realize the recoil is harsh, and the gun that felt good in their hand was not designed for pleasant shooting but rather to be a carry gun? How many people bought a Ruger LCR or an LCP because it is small and cute, only to shoot it to have their hand fall off from the recoil? They dont realize that their gun was designed as a backup gun and was not designed to be fired as a target gun. Even if you waste $350 on a 22LR gun and 10 bricks of ammo, better do that and have a gun you can sell for $200 then to spend $350 worth of 9mm ammo and not be happy with your choice.
  4. What are you trying to get rid of? If it is a reasonable value, I would suggest selling it locally in the marketplace thread, before losing more money by selling it to a dealer and paying the shipping.
  5. +1 to wojo. Most major companies will keep sure not to break the do not call lists. Companies can call you during business hours if you are not on the DNC, OR if they have done business with you in the past 6 months or a year... dont recall which. Political parties and non for profits do not have to abide by it. If you tell the company you do not want to be contacted, and they do, it is an $11,000 fine per occurrence. So MANY large corporations, really do take it seriously.
  6. One of my favorites and a constant reminder... and found this somewhere, as it relates to financial advisors and brokers...
  7. I dont know about tucked into the pants, but a paddle holster can be used... paddle goes around the belt...
  8. I would say set aside the whole day, through 3pm or so.... but can be finished as early as 1pm, or as late as 4.
  9. Depends. =) It is typically 5 stages with 1 classifier. Newbies need to show up at 8:30 for safety brief, registration starts typically at 9. Match starts at 10. But dont be the douche that shows up 10 mins before 10. =)
  10. what a great 3 gun promo video. =)

    8208 meters really well... better than 4895, however I will say, using the Lee Pro Disk powder measure, or the other Lee Perfect Powder Measure, i have not had any problems. 8208 shooting wise... is a tad bit hot, however is supposed to be more consistent accross the temperature range. For 308, I still prefer 4895, and Reloader 15, which is a joy to shoot, however in 223, I have had good luck with 8208. I will be loading some 223 with 308 and see how it does in the tack driver.

    I use imr 4895, and 8208xbr.
  13. will be across the street for some quiet shooting. =)
  14. Watch this set of videos. It will answer most. It looks like it is going to be a terrific day, near 70 and sunny. Bring ear and eye protection obviously. If you have a folding chair, bring it to sit your range bag on. Dont forget, Eat in the morning, bring lunch, and or lots of snacks. I bring yogurt and usually have one every few stages. depending on how many people come, you may or may not have time to eat lunch, especially at CJ where each squad shoots on their own in the individual pits. At a place like Shongum, where the stages are setup next to each other, squads alternate the shooting, so you have more time to sit down and eat. Old Bridge, Central Jersey, snacks snacks snacks or lunch that you can gobble down. Lots of water so you dont become dehydrated. Even though you are only shooting for a few mins, as the day wears on, most people die off. I cannot count the number of times, in the 4 matches I have shot, where I see people who are starving, dehydrated and did not eat beforehand. As far as equipment... you did not mention magazine pouches. Will be there early myself, around 8:30 to help setup so bbm me. Luis(huntingpaper) is also going to be there, and does have BBM, and is in the bbm njgf group. Now if we only get Bryan to go.
  15. Speaking of 22A's, Zardoz has a terrific one in the marketplace. wood grips and a bull barrel.
  16. easy solution... get a netbook with an android phone... voila... wireless internet.
  17. One should be a 22LR. the other... it depends on what you like. Do you want a revolver? a semi auto? full size? compact? Sub? Polymer or Steel? Something that you will shoot often?
  18. It is a store, you can just go there, however you need to have a qualification to buy from them. Either belong to the garand organization, or easier way... go have fun and shoot a CMP Vintage/Garand match at Central Jersey. After the match, you get a certificate that entitles you to buy from the CMP.
  19. I must say... most DMV's are alot better now.
  20. What blocking software are they using? Surprised it was tagged as entertainment. Most are viewing it as firearms/gun.
  21. corrected. Spellcheck, please. Personally, I am a big fan of the midwestpx 15/20 round blocked mags.
  22. Thanks Paul. so the legality is on the dealer side of it, not on his?
  23. happy birthday bud!
