I think the rifle stage at the USPSA matches at Shongum are the closest you are going to get. We has a stage that was about 100 feet long with long shots and targets on both sides so you were swinging back and forth. The long, run-and-gun stages are my favorite.

I think you messed up. The 2x4 matches are at Cherry Ridge. Or did I say Shongum somewhere? If I did..my bad.

Knock yourself out. Buy one. But remember what the judge said in State vs. Pelleteri: "when dealing with guns, the citizen acts at his peril".

L Or D: I want to be sure we are clear here. You are registered for the class. I PM'ed you last night regarding your registration. You are in. If you decide not to take the class, please let me know. Anyone else trying to register now is on the back-up list. Also, once you take this class, you are ready to shoot a match. In fact, I think you will be better prepared than most people. Most of the class will be run like a match.

No...the section regarding semi-automatic pistols allows one evil feature. The charger has two - magazine outside the pistol grip and manufactured weight over 50 oz.

The class is now full. If you are still interested, I will put you on the back-up list. If you are on the back-up list, you will have the first chance to register for a later class. There is no date for the next class.

Welcome from another Cherry Ridge member. I am taking the NRA instructor classes in the Spring so I will join you there too.

Good catch Bob. My friend was going to buy one but didn't after he contacted Ruger's legal department. They had an "Oh $hit!" moment when he reminded them of the 50 oz. rule. I would advise you not buy one unless you want a $10,250 gun ($250 for the gun and $10,000 in legal fees).

Cash or check at the class. PM me if you plan to attend.

I am teaching a USPSA / IDPA Introduction Class at the Shongun Range in Mansfield Township on March 27th. The class will run from 9:00AM to 2:00PM. The class will consist of two parts. A classroom briefing on the safety rules and a live-fire session running stages. Equipment Required: - Pistol, 9mm or larger - A USPSA or IDPA compliant holster, belt and ammo pouches for at least two magazines. The holster must prevent access to the trigger when the pistol is holstered. - Three magazines - 150 rounds of ammunition - Eye and ear protection The fee is $20.00. You do not have to be a member or Shongum. The class will be held rain or shine. Bring lunch or snack and something to drink. There are four slots open. The first four people to PM get the slots. After that, I will take names for a back-up list. Mike

There are plans for steel matches at Shongum starting in the Spring. I will post any updates and match dates.

Ich heisse Mike. I am going with my friend. He worries too much and would not like it if I brought a stranger with me. He didn't even want to do a group order. The NJ gun laws have him afraid of everything. I live in Parsippay and am a member at Shongum and Cherry Ridge. You are on the way to T&T too... damn that guy and his paranoia.

Where are you located? I might put in an order depending on what T&T has in stock.

See the threads regarding 2x4, USPSA and IDPA matches. These should answer all your questions. I don't know of any bowling pin matches though. 2x4 thread: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=2327 Shongum USPSA Thread: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1664 Somerset IDPA site: http://somersetidpa.com/

Welcome from a wannabe Carolinian.

The match has been cancelled due to weather. This is the third cancellation in a row. We are due for better luck for the next match, Saturday, March 6th.

This class is open the the public and there is no charge. Also, there may be a USPSA match going on at the same time, depending on the weather. So this could be a "twofer".

It is open to anyone.

I do not know if you have to be a member to attend. I will try to find out if anyone wants to know. http://www.shongum.org/calendar.html

From what I heard, the old stuff was lacquered. Problems occurred when a round was left in a hot chamber. The lacquer melted, then solidified and glued the round in the chamber. The steel rounds now are poly coated and the problem was solved. I know a guy at the range that uses Brown Bear as his practice ammo and loves the stuff.

Here's one now. Welcome. See ya at a 2x4 or USPSA match.

There is a good video entitled "Making Glocks Rock". I borrowed it from a friend of mine and it was very helpful and well worth the price.

I have an 870 and have been considering the mag extension. Some people use a drill to remove the bump. I would use a Dremel bit to grind the bump from the outside. The inside of the hole must be free of any burrs or a lip and Dremel appears to be the best tool. MidwayUSA sells a tool designed to grind the bump from the inside of the tube but I don't think you need it.

Welcome! What ya shoot and where?
