Glock26

welcome welcome.

I would suggest contacting any FFL (class 3) that can do conversions or is licensed for auto's, etc... such as BA... When I was there a few weeks ago, saw a few banana clips on the counter for the AK's. =) Also, they do conversions for the XDm, to convert the 19+1 into a 15 round mag.

No one says you cant post on XDtalk anymore. what I find nice about here is that it is jersey content, like where else can you post about shops gouging prices or places to shoot. another great national forum is thehighroad.org.

welcome sir.... Bayonne, almost a new yorker. =P

nice job.

Anyone have any takes on it? I saw it new in the 2009 new catalog for Taurus. Buds has them in as well. http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/21_50_495/products_id/411536281

So how many rounds do you go through a summer?

the regular guys at sportsman's, Lonnie and an older gentleman, are both out on vacation. The guy covering.... just shouldnt be there.

I still cannot get over how grimy this place looks. (shore shot) They do have better prices for firearms... but still. Is it true they have bullet holes in the ceiling and back of the place?

was the $12.98 the case price? or per box? Case 11.98?

Yes, we can. Some companies do not ship to NJ, but they can. Only caveat is, you have to fax over a copy of your FID card. When my brother ordered from Cheaper than dirt, it would be a wait, I recently ordered from Natchezss.com, and after placing order, emailed them a scan of FID, got ammo in 2 days. I was there at last at Dicks in freehold as well... did you leave any 9mm left or should I just go to Pton?

If you are looking at 762x39... http://www.natchezss.com/product.cfm?co ... &src=ba632 $399 for 1120 rounds. Bulk

cheaper than dirt, a few days ago, when I was on, was selling boxes of 9mm for $30 plus, albeit they had it in stock. On the way back from office will drop by dicks, and see if they have any ammo, 9mm for $12.99

welcome. Less than 30 days for permit? Nice. where do you shoot? Brick Armory? did you just get your permit and fid?

I did find this series of youtube videos. TwbeHvJIkfM U9h9Xl8Jheo Z9wq3zaUXhY T784EciLuXQ

I tear down and clean my own guns? hehe. I am interested in learning about reloading... this way, I will be able to shoot my 45gap's, and acp's more. I am sure if we have enough interest, can do a get together and do a reload class or what not.

COLUMN-In American crisis, anger and guns:Bernd Debusmann (Bernd Debusmann is a Reuters columnist. The opinions expressed are his own.) By Bernd Debusmann WASHINGTON, March 19 (Reuters) - In the first two months of this year, around 2.5 million Americans bought guns, a 26% percent increase over the same period in 2008. It was great news for gun makers and a sign of a dark mood in the country. Gun sales shot up almost immediately after Barack Obama won the U.S. presidential elections on November 4 and firearm enthusiasts rushed to stores, fearing he would tighten gun controls despite campaign pledges to the contrary. After the November spike, gun dealers say, a second motive has helped drive sales: fear of social unrest as the ailing economy pushes the newly destitute deeper into misery. Many of the newly poor come from the relentlessly rising ranks of the unemployed. In February alone, an average of 23,000 people a day lost their jobs. Tent cities for the homeless have expanded outside a string of American cities, from Sacramento and Phoenix to Atlanta and Seattle, for people who are living the American dream in reverse. First they lose their jobs, then their health insurance, then their homes, then their hopes. The encampments are reminiscent of Third World refugee camps. Often former members of the middle class, tent dwellers' accounts of their plight to television cameras have a common theme: "I never thought this could happen to me." Unlike the victims of Katrina, the 2005 hurricane that destroyed much of New Orleans, many of the newly-poor are white. The FBI says it carried out 1,213,885 criminal background checks on prospective firearms buyers in January and 1,259,078 in February, jumps of 28% and 23.3% respectively. Keen demand turned the stocks of publicly-trade firearms companies like Smith & Wesson (up 80% since November) and Sturm Ruger (up more than 100%) into shining stars on the New York Stock Exchange. There are no statistics on how many guns are bought by people who think they need them to defend themselves against desperate fellow citizens. But, as columnist David Ignatius put it in the Washington Post, "there's an ugly mood developing as people start looking for villains to blame for the economic mess." In November, an analysis published by the U.S. Army War College's Strategic Studies Institute listed "unforeseen economic collapse" as one of the possible causes of future "widespread civil violence." The American economy is down but not out, and in mid-March some experts reported signs that the pace of the decline was slowing. But it hasn't slowed enough to sweep away the sense of anxiety and fear that comes through in many conversations and commentaries about the future of this normally optimistic country. While Obama's approval rating remains high, at 59%, almost two thirds of the population thinks the country is on the wrong track, according to a poll commissioned by National Public Radio in mid-March. "What is really remarkable about all this is that there hasn't been social unrest," remarked an executive with business interests in Latin American countries where riots and street demonstrations in response to economic squeezes are routine. "The conditions for it are all there." ANGER ABOUT BAILOUTS Anger is building. Just under half of those surveyed in a poll by the Pew Research Center this month expressed anger about "bailing out banks and financial institutions that made poor decisions." The poll was taken before details became known of the full extent of the bonus-paying spree to members of the very team that brought the insurance giant AIG close to collapse. The government propped up AIG with close to $200 billion and now owns 80% of the company. The argument that $165 million in bonuses had to be paid under contractual obligations went down particularly badly with workers of the three U.S. car companies whose leaders appealed for support from the Bush administration last year when the economic crisis gathered steam. One of the conditions for the billions that were dispensed to the car industry was that contracts between auto workers and their union, the United Auto Workers, had to be renegotiated to cut costs. The union agreed, and the question arises: are contracts with blue-collar workers less binding than those with highly-paid derivatives traders? Some see this as another sign of the inequalities that Obama promised to address. Remember his famous exchange with Joe Wurzelbacher, aka Joe the Plumber, during a campaign stop? "I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody," Obama told him. There's less wealth to spread around now as trillions of dollars has evaporated with increasing speed in the deepening crisis. In housing alone, more than $5 trillion has vanished. The gap between rich and poor, a gap of Third World proportions, has not changed. A full-time worker, on average, made $37,606 last year, considerably less than in 1973, adjusted for inflation. While CEOs made 45 times as much as workers in 1973 they make more than 300 times as much today, according to Holly Sklar, author of "Raise the Floor, Wages and Policies that Work for All of US." To what extent those gaps will shrink under Obama remains to be seen and the outlook for swift action is not promising. There are, in fact, not many things for which the outlook is promising. Exceptions include Smith&Wesson. They expect revenue to double within the next three years.

http://www.gunfacts.info/ Voila bud. download the pdf.

Didnt Mack-Cali pull out of the project earlier? And you are right, the smaller gun shops do alot better on pricing.... but the big box stores can sure be "perty"

Absolutely spot on. If I was working behind the counter... I would probly go nuts. And being friendly to the sport can get old? Esp after having 25 new people coming in a day. It sure is a real fine line that they walk. But we do have to salut Ray's for being open as long as they were.

Yup, mostly for the background noise. Prior to that, had Miami Vice playing in the background.

http://www.magnumresearch.com/images/BEP.pdf there is the manual for it. I did not know that they made them in polymer as well.

Who does them for $25? including nics and all? Should post them up here.

I think the book would be good as well. As well as taking the NRA classes.

Just wish it was updated a little bit more frequently
