Col. Mortimer

I have tried them all and they are all good in my hands. It comes down to features, holster availability, reliability and concealability. Right now, I think the Glock 19 has the edge. Having the largest market share, it has the most after market support.

Okay Smart A$$...Yeah the wife has me on a short leash like every other married guy. I'm just trying to increase the peace at home. I have some new .40S&W reloads I have to chrono so maybe next weekend.

Oh great...now you have me thinking about another gun I need.

A few times a year the wife and I make a trip to NC to check on our property. Let's hear your opinion on which pistol I should be carrying. Right now, I am thinking Glock 19, Springfield Armory XD Compact or Smith & Wesson M&P Compact. All in 9mm. Pick one or make your case for another.

Looks like the perfect gun for USPSA Production class. I'm just sayin'.

I smell t-shirt!

"The Tactical Rifle Match is a contest for scoped, centerfire rifles fired at 300 yards." Sorry, no rimfire is allowed at this match.

My name is Col. Mortimer and I'm a brass whore. It's a reloading thing. You wouldn't understand. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Welcome from yet another Morris County resident. Glocks are okay in NJ, it's the magazines that will get you in trouble (15 rounds maximum).

Don't forget Riverdale and Shongum. It would be nice if there was a range closer but that's the 'burbs. So what 9mm are you going to get?

Welome follow Morris County resident! Hope to see you at one of the local ranges.

I must have just missed you guys. It was a bit crowded but a good crowd and the RO ran things smoothly. A CR meet up sounds like fun. I need to show off the toys.

The biggest problem with removing the slide from a Buckmark is that it is easy to bend the recoil rod. This handy tool makes removing the slide easy. Here is the link: http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=306229. I have one and I used it for the first time last week. After owning the Buckmard for a year and never removing the slide, it was a mess. Rusty may give us a discount if we do a group buy. He also has other cool accessories for the Buckmark. The BMT is $25.

What brand ammo are you shooting? I'm with Ray Ray, you go through a couple hundred rounds of .22's at the range in no time.

From Haz Matt: This Saturday, May 14, is the first Tactical Rifle Match at Cherry Ridge for 2011! The course of fire has changed this year. Below there is a copy of the News and Briefs article that describes the course of fire and scoring. There will be up to 31 rounds fired for score, and a 5 minute sight-in period with unlimited rounds. The Pit crews will have to pay attention this time, and there will be 2 target changes per relay. This promises to be an exciting and dynamic match for precision rifles. There will be a completely pimpalicious trophy for the winner and nothing for everyone else, because, let's face it, second place is just the first loser. Entry is $10. No pre-registration is required. Just show up and sign in (try to be there before 8:30 am). And remember, matches at Cherry Ridge are open to the public; you do not need to be a member to shoot a match. I hope to see you all there! Tactical Rifle Match at Cherry Ridge The Tactical Rifle Match is a contest for scoped, centerfire rifles fired at 300 yards. The match is shot in two relays, with shooters working through four distinct stages of fire. - Stage One is the Cold Bore Shot, which is exactly what it sounds like; the first shot from a cold bore. This is taken at a three inch black circle and worth 50 points, and the time limit is one minute. This is followed immediately by 5 minutes of sight-in. - Stage Two is Shapes, and is shot on the familiar geometric shapes target (black shapes with 3 inch white centers.) Shooter will have 5 minutes to engage 10 specified targets. Scoring is 10, 5, 0, or –10. - Stage Three is Know Your Limitations, and is particularly devious. The target consists of four circles of descending size; 6 inch, 4 ½ inch, 3 inch, and 2 inch. Scoring is in ascending order, 10, 25, 60, and 140 points. Shooter will have 10 minutes for up to ten shots. The trick here is that targets can be shot down, but not up. If a shooter hits the 6 inch, then the 4 ½ inch, he cannot go back to the 6 inch. Shooting up will result in a zero for the stage, and a miss at any point in the stage will result in a zero for this stage. This is where we find out who’s greedy. - Stage Four is The Shredder, 10 shots, 45 seconds, on a TQ-20 reduced silhouette target (the same one used in the Carlos Hathcock match.) Shooters can hit a 10, 9, 8, or miss. Match restrictions are few. Allowable calibers are from .20 to 8mm, and a bipod or non-commercial front rest only may be used, and rear rests of any type are forbidden. Other than that, shooters can use whatever they wish to gain an edge; slings, shooting coats, gloves, flip-flops, lucky hats, etc. Any position will be allowed, but smart shooters will be in prone, so bring a mat. The Match dates for 2011 are: May 14, July 16, September 17, and November 12. All Matches are from 8:30am-1:00pm.

Man! People call me a brass whore! Leave your brass in a pile next to the garbage can for a reloader. I was at the range today and it was a nice day. Shot a little bit at the pistol range. The Range Officer was a really nice guy and we had a chat. They are way better than they used to be. Strict and firm but polite.

The safe in the link is the one on sale. I just received the mailer. I have to check the date but the sale probably doesn't start until May 12. I shop at the Dover and East Hanover stores so you may want to see if they have any in stock. From my experience, you can rent a heavy duty hand truck for about $35-$50. My neighbor and I moved my safe from the garage to the house with little trouble.

Damn! I like CZ's. Now I want one. Get a legal holster and shoot that bad boy in Limited-10.

$200 off the regular price. I am a member if anyone that knows me wants one. I bought a similar Liberty at Cabela's for $999.99. If I had known, I would have bought this one.

Not "Shootin' A's". The weather looks good. Bring sun screen and water. New shooters will meet me at 9:00AM for the safety briefing and live-fire check.
