question on 590 with bayonet
Glen... I love that. I must have. I will not be trading everyhting I have for a 590a1 or a Win97 remake just to have the bayo lug. Is that a Arisaka bayonet? My question is .... Do you shot first then stick? Or Stick first then shoot?

Gun Shops in PA
I am living proof that "...they would be more curious as to how I have a NJ license plate with an out of state drivers license." IS SPOT ON. Kept my Ga DL for awhile, got pulled over at a DUI checkpoint. About $200 later, and a court appearance, and a NJ DL, they forgot the whole thing.

ZED South Team. Check in here
All, I am not thinking this is going to happen. Not to many people have shown an interest, I would rather have everyone show to the Appleseed one of those weekends, my club is getting real pissy ... I might be looking for a new club come spring. So lets hold off. Dr if your good for the 6, join up at the Appleseed shoot at SJSC that weekend.

Rem 597 @ Dicks
This was the dicks in Cherry Hill, the only one they had. I would call around.

Rem 597 @ Dicks
All, Since I will not able to get my GSG to really work for the Appleseed shoots this spring, I thought I better reacquire a .22lr rifle. I was thinking 10/22, but I never really liked them. So I went to Dicks to look at them and while perusing I noticed that they had a Rem 597 in OD Green on sale for $149! That's a great price for a quality 22 semi. Then I realized it comes with a BSA Red Dot. Ok... deal got better. Then there is a little sign off to the side. Remington firearms are getting rebates... the 597 gets a $25 rebate direct from Remington. This was at the Cherry Hill Dicks and was there only one. I would call around and see if they had the same deal on a OD Green 597 with BSA Red Dot. Wrap it up... by the way it actually rang up $134! Minus the rebate... $109 for a Rem 597 in OD Green with a cheap BSA Red Dot. Add a pair of QD Sling Mounts, a Mil Sling, Tech sites... your still under $200!!!

Time for a new military sidearm

Time for a new military sidearm
Ray, I have some Buffalo Bore Heavy 10mm 220gr Flat Nose Cast rounds that travel about 1200 fps out of a Glock 20 that will light your hair on fire. That is what 10mm are for! The other stuff is 40s&w basically for practice.
-
Time for a new military sidearm
"Ask the Germans, who lost two world wars using the 9 as their Service handgun load" That is one of the worst justifications against the 9mm I have ever seen. So the Germans lost WWI and WWII not because of the military and manufacturing might allied against them, they lost because they used the 9mm Luger. Holy Christ, I am really glad Hitler never went to the 11mm German Service Revolver. We might have lost BOTH WARS!!! I would hate to be shot with either. http://www.hipowersandhandguns.com/9mm%20vs%2045.htm

Appleseed Shoots
first you should be able to police your own brass and if I brought a .30cal or 5.56 I would insist on it. I seriously doubt there would be a problem. Bring what you son is comfortable shooting. There were two people shooting with scopes last event. Nothing is a non starter with these folks. The example I heard was "They did not turn away men at Concord that only had fowlers did they?" I live about 30 minutes away. You could be in LBI in about 45 min or less by going through Hammonton - Batso - tuckerton. There are also some camping option in the area. I like your other idea also. See above.

Appleseed Shoots
All, I am a big fan of the Appleseed program and if I did not have a thousand other things going on in my life I would be an Instructor for this organization. I attended an Appleseed shoot last April while in WV. It was one of the top experiences in my life. Why... I got a large amount of info on how to shoot a rifle, safety, our history and current political thinking. I also had the opportunity to shoot a garand out to 300 yards, and a Steyr .50HS at 500. I put over 500rds through a Remington 597 and saw alot of progress in my shooting. I thought I could shoot a rifle before I got there... I was not even close to being a decent shot. Plus I made some good friends there. If you want to see a write up see this thread. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/15243-appleseed-shoot-report/page__p__202125__hl__appleseed__fromsearch__1#entry202125 $70 for the two days... the best money you can spend for your shooting. I admit I am a total shill for this organization. I want to post here that they are holding 3 classes this spring in NJ. All will be held at the South Jersey Shooting Club in Winslow, NJ. This is about 1 Mile off the AC Expressway at Exit 33. I think it would be great to get a NJGF group to one of these dates. I would expect all members of the NJ ZED Teams to be in full attendance Upcoming NJ shoots: March 2011 Winslow, NJ - Mar 5-6 April 2011 Winslow, NJ - Apr 16-17 June 2011 Winslow, NJ - Jun 11-12 I would be interested in attending the April 16-17 shoot. This is a big weekend because it is close to the Apr 9 Anniversary of the Battle of Concord and Lexington which the entire project is based upon. If anyone else would like to participate... start posting here and then go to Appleseed site and register for the April shoot. http://www.appleseedinfo.org/search-states.php?filter=NJ&statename=New%20Jersey To attend you need a rifle... prefer semi-auto of any caliber as specific strings are timed. Reloading lever actions would be hard, bolts with strippers would work. Make sure it is sighted at 25yards. Make sure it is accurate. You can use optics, but that is cheating in my opinion. You will need 500rds, maybe less if your good and qualify quickly. At the last shoot I used a Rem 597, but found the front sight to not be fine enough for the small gray targets. I was going to use my GSG, but I dont think it will be accurate enough without optics. So I am going to build a Liberty Rifle (Recomended Configuration per Appleseed.org http://appleseedproject.blogspot.com/2008/02/liberty-training-rifle.html) with a twist. I am going to use a Rem 597 again but I acquired some TechSites for it. I like the Rem over a 10/22 personally. check here for more info on what is recommended. http://www.appleseedinfo.org/as_prepare.html Anybody else game. This would also be a great start to the NJGF TOPSHOT.

CZ 75b vs. Taurus 1911
By the way... I happen to love CZs as my first NIB handgun was a CZ85C. I have also owned a plain jane CZ85, a CZP01 and a CZ PCR. I sold the CZ PCR and P01 when i moved to NJ because they were my CCWs and were not going to be needed anymmore. I sold my last CZ85 to Maks here... for reasons I cant really remember or forgive myself for now. CZ are great bargains and used to be total sleeper bargains back in the days of $429 for a CZ85C or $359 for the PCR. But they have gotten so popular prices have really creeped up.

Ruger Gunsite Scout
Dan... I want to hear more about that Scout Squad. Have you tried any LER optics? Can you get something low enough to co-witness with the orig sights? Is that a 10rd mag installed? Do you know of any 15rd that are avail?

Has anyone here ever shot the Sig P226 AND the Sig SP2022?
Bry@n... first dont ever think I get offended on the web. Typing is a horrible medium to express feelings. It's all good and I dont take offense. I have tried their other triggers, but I have never owned one of them. I will admit to trying Tactical Monkey's 226 the other day and that was a decent trigger, they just dont work for me which pisses me off because I like their quality alot. My last one a 220 was a total shame, so disapointed. But just to show you how freakin wrong I am about everything... I like glocks. Talk about a bad trigger.

CZ 75b vs. Taurus 1911
Bry@n... I am not a Taurus lover but you are harshly painting a company that has at least been innovative over the last many years. Yes, the sell LICENSED copies of some of the worlds larger firearm companies, but for good reason. In the 70s Taurus was owned 55% or so by the parent company of Smith and Wesson.... therefore they started to produce S&W designed guns for the S.American and C. American market. When that relationship ended, Beretta just finished making guns for the Brazilian armed forces and going broke, so they sold the manufacturing plant, tools, plans and rights to Taurus to build and sell their guns. It worked out well for both Taurus and Beretta. Now, lately the have come out with some great designs or ideas... the 24/7 whether you like it or not has some really nice features and is a fresh design, the Judge has turned CCW into cool again for alot of people across the US. They entertain the CSA crowd with good rifles in the right calibers, mid framed CCW semi autos seem popular even with some admittedly issues, and the new PT809 is getting some great reviews. Plus can you fault them for making a 1911, they have been producing frames for Springfield for years, why not do their own. Plus their 1911 is a shooter... they give you some really nice features and quality for the cash you put out. Probably the best buy in 1911s right now. I do love a Taurus 92... I think they are better then Beretta 92 series pistols for one reason, frame mounted safety/decocker. I will deal with slightly less wonderful bluing or grips that aren't as nice for a strong, safer weapon anyday.

Has anyone here ever shot the Sig P226 AND the Sig SP2022?
@ bry@n... Hey.. to be honest, nobody and I mean nobody has the issues I do. Like I said... SIGs are very subjective. I have owned many (226, 228, 220 and a P6) and just recently came to the realization I dont like the trigger.
