How do you transport your firearm(s) to and from the range?
firearms in a pistol case in the trunk. Ammo and targets in a backpack.

I didnt know mine carries it either. Look in the sporting goods section. They have an 8ft section towards the back. Or better yet, ask.... for paintball stuff, then look right next to it. lol.

Considering opening a gun store
it was per 50. I wish our Walmarts here sold ammo. I was surprised though to see they have accessories such as cleaning kits, etc. Went to my walmart picked up a cleaning kit for like $7.

You are right. Even todays environment, a few weeks ago Sportsmans Center in Bordentown had 9mm ammo marked on shelf for 11.99 and $12.49 for brass... reasonable prices. Now they got a bunch more in, but marked $16.99, not buying that.

While I do agree with you, I do have to disagree to some extent. Go into any gun store and spend an hour.... see how many people go into the store and willing to pay any price. Look at all the countless newbies who go to the range, to rent. You tell them a box of 9mm ammo is $40 and they will pay it as they do not know any better.

Recession is now a depression.
thanks. I guess since now I am no longer working I can explain. Previously I worked at Ameriprise as a financial advisor, about 2 years ago, so July of 07 I was recruited over to UBS. It was a move upmarket. At Ameriprise, target client was anyone with a pulse and willing to pay a planning fee. At UBS, their target client was apx $500,000 in investible assets. We would not even get paid on anyone under $50k. So client gets charged, but I dont get paid. The Swiss finally realized that making the old Paine Webber compete for midlevel clients was not all that hot so I guess they are trying to sell off the US division. Since no one has the money to buy the US division out of our key competitors, such as MorganStanley/Smith Barney (merging), Merrill Lynch/Bank of America, Wachovia Securities/Wells Fargo? UBS approached the bigger private banks, JpMorgan Goldman Sachs, but their average client was between $2 and $5million investible, so UBS was caught between a rock and a hard place. So what they are doing is now moving up market, getting rid of advisors not in that niche, and all small clients are being shipped off to the call center. When all they have left are big clients, they can have an easier time selling off to GS or JP Morgan.? My target client has really been the average upper middle class family, which does not fit UBS's new mold. So Voila. Here I am. 2 meetings today with an independent agency in Bridgewater area with offices in Freehold and Clifton, and another fixed income shop in Princeton. Have opportunities with MetLife/New England securities.... and countless recruiters. Just wish I can take more time to really evaluate all firms. I really love what I do for my clients, I am just dissapointed that UBS does not see it the same way.

Recession is now a depression.
Got my "Laid off" packet today from UBS. They are cutting about 20% of the advisors, and anyone who was part salary, was pretty much "reduced" will have more time to post here. lol. Worst part about it, we get no severance as we are at will employees. I smell lawsuits coming on from other advisors, good thing is, have a few firms interested. Mr. Obama.... can I get some money pleassssssssseeeeeee. I need to fill up the gas in my car, and pay for my mortgage. :mrgreen: Lol. Any donations towards the site are appreciated. hehe.

Any Walther P99 fans out there?
I love the look, feel and design of the gun, however only shot it in a 40S&W. for that reason, I hated it. It would kickback like a mule and on a polymer pistol, did not like it much. In a 9mm, I am sure it is a blast to shoot, however did not yet. Now admit it, you got it because James Bond used one in the movies.

Why Ammo is so Expensive These Days
Very good summary. Moral of the story.... buy the components and reload. =) Or use a slingshot or bbgun.

Frank Lautenberg and Brady Campaign go National
I would have to ban myself for language if I really let it out how I feel about Lautenberg. People of NJ keep voting him in for ages. He ran on the promise of getting money for New Jersey when NJ was almost dead last 30? years ago.... today, NJ IS dead last. Are people of Newark, Trenton, Camden and other towns really that brain dead?

NJGF Targets are here!
I usually start shooting them at 7 yards for warmup, then move them out to 15/20 yards. But it is amazing how when you practice on these, and switch to full size... how tight the grouping is. you are right. I guess it is good practice for IDPA. I usually hang 2 side by side. Last time, I taped them onto a silhouette frame.... one in the middle of the torso, one on the head.

the beretta 92fs and CZ 75/85 are one of my fav's, because they are all metal. Just feel better in the hand.
