  1. This was the message as it came through their media department. I am not sure if it is 50 round boxes too or only the 100 round bulk packs.
  2. Thanks, that is what I thought. Langhorne is the one I was thinking about. If you go further west you also have York, New Holland and a few others... some long range clubs too. There are also a few PA gun clubs in the Hellertown area and a few around Doylestown.
  3. Does range 14 allow steel? Been a while since there. Also, if in Hamilton area... I believe there are a few clubs in Pa closer than easton.

    Spot on... tools and camera bags are some of the most stolen items out there. And quite frankly... why an AR pistol for a truck gun? especially if you have to reassemble it... might as well get something a bit more practical like a Ruger 10/22 take down or Pc9 take down. Yes... America problems. But I really don't believe in leaving a gun in the truck either.
  5. For jeans, I really like Express, especially when you find them on sale/clearance Worn daily, last quite a few years. Yes, the more recent ones wear out a bit faster, but still a great value and fit. Sorry, can't justify $100 or more for designer jeans. Much like the fashion crowd will spend $$$ for some famous name on their ass, I think the tactical, er, gun crowd spends money just to have 5.11 or someone else tactical on their stuff.
  6. Maksim posted a topic in Modern Materiel
    Just wanted to take a quick moment and welcome @Modern Materiel to the NJGF Community! If you have not been aware, Joe and @Modern Materiel produce some wicked rifles for the serious gun guys and gals and a few members own them already. Will let Modern Materiel do the rest of the talk themselves. =) Welcome
  7. Hey guys, just FYI... I did have contact with folks at the range and having discussions on this topic... (range bag inspections). Will also be making a trip down. Their focus is on safety which I get... but perhaps there needs a balance. Don't recall right at the moment, but this was not supposed to be a full inspection or checking out mags, etc... will chime in in a bit.
  8. Guys and gals, FYI... Winchester just issued a recall for 38 Special 130 Grain FMJ ammo. Notice below.

  9. Alternatively, they can click "Request to Join" or something along those lines and the leader of the club, will get a notification that someone is trying to join. You can then approve those requests through the club page.

    Ray Ray, You don't have to be "wowed" by just an STI or some other bigger gun. You can easily be wowed by smaller guns too, that are pleasant to shoot, or are accurate, etc. I was wow'ed in the past by similar guns like the XDS in 45ACP, Nano, 43, Shield, Honor Guard. While the Mossberg was okay, it was nothing special nor is it going to do anything special. I see ZERO reasons to pick it over a Shield or a Glock, both of which shoot better and are more pleasant at the same time.... and of course, much better fit and finish.
  11. Where the heck did the individual range groups go? They were integrated into the new "Clubs" feature! By user request, over the years we created small forum sections for individual gun clubs and 2A groups. While it served the purpose, it was an administrative nightmare granting permissions while at the same time lacking organization and features. Part of the software upgrades for the community was the ability to launch clubs, or groups around the community. For our gun community I see it going three ways, 1. Social Groups (like NJ Zed), 2. 2A Rights Groups (NJ2AS, SAW, CNJFO), and 3. Gun Ranges/Clubs. Already, converted the older groups to the new clubs and anyone who had access to the gun range section previously, currently has it for the club. If you do not have access and want it, click the request to join. Here is a video I put together showing you where to find it and how to use it. If you would like a club added, either for a range or a new social group, let me know. Better yet, if you hold a position in the gun club and want to help run it, even better! I hope you enjoy it and it makes your NJ gun experience just a little bit better! Lastly, don't forget to check out the Store & Range Directory! and subscribe to our YouTube channel to get the latest videos.
  12. Elevation should not be much different as long as you have no issues shooting near the waterfall. Windage? Of course. But... if your groups suddenly start opening up at 100 yards, i.e. going from sub MOA to 2 or 3 MOA... you have gun or ammo problems. =) But I would also say... don't freak yourself out... first time I shot open sights out of a Swedish Mauser at a CMP Vintage match I was also "WTF" but quickly learned it is not bad... especially since the targets are pretty damn big. =)
  13. Brian, Does anyone run F Class or Any/Any type matches in the area?
  14. I think that's the biggest thing? Cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap. Unfortunately in NJ you cannot take the fun to the next level and shoot them suppressed. =)
  15. that would be for tube fed guns such as Marlin Model 60 and other lever actions (fed with tube). Go ahead and do a price request and one of our awesome vendors will get back to you with a compliant model and a price. https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/forms/3-rifle-price-request/
  16. Well, you can always shoot at 200 or 100 with reduced sized targets. =) That is what a number of matches do when they do not have the yardage. Yes, wind would be less of an issue at shorter distances. @njJoniGuy correct me if I am wrong. Have not shot matches in a long long time.
  17. Jack is correct. That is a Gen 1. Gen 2 has small front serrations, slightly different grip texturing. Major difference is the myriad of models with integrated lasers and the Shield EZ. I went ahead and edited the title.
  18. Does NRA or any long range shooting group have a list of ranges that are say 300 yards + in the tri state area? I suppose in NJ we pretty much know all public ranges, but out here in PA... so many clubs exist but don't advertise anywhere or sometimes even have websites. Just found out Palmerton Rod and Gun Club, by Blue Mountain has a 300 yard.
  19. Maksim replied to Ray Ray's topic in Handguns
    Whats the going rate on it? It's an interesting gun for sure. Yes, it does come apart differently and let's you easily clean the firing pin... but at the end of the day, it is yet another plastic pocket pistol. I think there are a few videos of us shooting at shot show... no one in our group was really impressed from what I recall. I did have one on order with Mossberg to do a full media review.
  20. Going through the list, it only seems like the local clubs are: Cumberland, SJSC, CJRPC, and in Pa New Holland and York... the rest are relatively far...
  21. PSA keeps on going! S&W is doing some crazy deals now though.
