Every guy can watch The Godfather at any time.

You will be fine. I would have stopped you if you had an unsafe holster. With a soft holster, you can get your finger on the trigger but you have to work at it. For Shongum, it is fine but the Blade-Tech is better.

Note to self: Wear earmuffs and ear plugs.

38 rounds with a level action would not be practical. I heard someone shot it with a bolt action and it took a long time. What caliber is the 90?

Yes. It is a good place to shoot steel case, aluminum case and small primer .45 brass.

I used to save singles for the match but Howard usually has a huge pile of singles by the end of the match. Now I think it is best to have fins, tens and twenties.

Here are the details: You do not have to be a Cherry Ridge member. Two pairs of shooters with pistols, carbines & level action rifles in pistol caliber and revolvers. Each two shooters cut a 2x4 in half, cross wise. This thread explains it all: http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/11138-2x4-cutting-match-at-cherry-ridge-saturday-82209/

The pistol match ends around 2:00 - 2:30. This match may end a little early since Sunday is Easter and we may have a small showing.

The April match is Saturday, April 7th. The pistol match is 100 rounds. Registration is from 9:00AM to 9:30AM but help with setting up and packing up is always needed and appreciated. Set-up starts at 8:00AM. There will be a rifle side stage after the pistol match of 38 rounds. Notes: If you plan to attend, reply to Ron at [email protected] let him know by Thursday, March 1st, 8am. If you are new and need the safety briefing be there by 9AM and let Karen know at registration. I will be running the safety briefing. If the match is cancelled for weather, Ron will send out an email notification around 5pm on Friday and it will be posted here. PS: The long-term weather forecast looks very good but after this past weekend, I might jinx it.

Nick is correct. Too many new shooters on one squad will slow that squad down too much, overwhelm the RO and there will not be enough experienced shooters to answer new shooter questions. Be sure your RO puts you down in the order and watch the shooters ahead of you. If you need to borrow magazine or other equipment, now is the time to ask.

Be there at 8:30AM and I'll get you signed in and set up for the safety briefing. There is no registration. Shongum is all walk-ins.

I have been remiss in not thanking the people that helped me and without their assistance, this class would not happen. Thank you so very much Maks, Nick (KrdShrk), Drez, Harry, Rich, Ralph, and Ron.

I want to say we had a good group and eveyone did very well. We had no safety issues at all which always makes me happy. Despite the weather, we all had a good time. Ralph was impressed with the turn out and wants me to do another class. He said I have quite a following. I have a following? I may have a class in September when everyone's kids are back in school and the vacations are over. However, if you want to jump in, come to a match at Shongum and we'll get you started.

Now that's my kind of woman! Irish Pete is a lucky man.

Two jugs it is. If the forecase is correct, we will have rain on the way to the range but conditions will improve. Don't let the rain scare you off.

I checked MapQuest and that looks correct. It looks like the road bends right and then left. After that, look for the firehouse on your right and the entrance to Shongum is about 200 yards on the left. If you are coming from Hackettstown and you are on Jane Chapel Road - if you see the firehouse on your left, you passed the range.

http://www.upi.com/B...91311331656764/ This story does not mention it but they are also buying .223. I wonder what effect this will have on ammo? Glad I stocked up on components.

We may have to start indoors but we will see.

You will be fine with two mags. There will be movement and mag changes but no more than one mag change.

Tough luck on the pistol. Ask the dealer he will give you a refund if you find a buyer. How much is he keeping? The deposit or the whole price? Who is it because he is not sounding too cool. BTW - welcome to the forum. A sibling of mine lives in Warren, nice town.

Man...ya pick up a couple (thousand) cases here and there and you never hear the end of it. Steel case ammo! It'll ruin your gun...it's unsafe...I can't reload it...it's very dirty. All kidding aside, you can pick up your spent brass. I may be a total brass hog but I never take without asking.

I wear a heavy coat and take it off while the targets are being pasted/reset. Thermal underwear is my choice for cold weather matches. (under my regular clothing) I will have two gazebos for cover if we have light rain or showers. Worst case, we use the indoor range but I want to avoid that so bring rain gear and warm clothing.

This Sunday Night, April 1st, at the Tenafly Rifle and Pistol Club is the USPSA Practice Shoot. Bring at least 100 rounds of ammo and enough mags. Holster and mag pouches are encouraged because we're going to be moving. Shooters choice: pistol or revolver. No shotgun, no rifle. Depending upon the number of participants, we start with one gun per shooter. Beginners come early, and please if not familiar with your gun LET US KNOW. Your RO is Fred Ochosa Sunday April 1, 2012 Arrive 5:30PM Start 6:30PM $10. to shoot No entry after 7PM please. Questions? Contact Lauren Fischetti Cell: 201 248-1411 [email protected]

Bring them! Mine is a cheapie CO2 but it will go through a target and is accurate at close range. Ralph wants to see my airsoft and I am sure yours are way cooler.

If you are an inexperienced shooter, please let me know at the start of class. I will put the less experienced shooters in Squad 1 and you will start on the easilest stage first. If you are uncomfortable with drawing and shooting from a holster, I will have an airsoft pistol for you to use. You try that first below going to the real thing.
