What's your favorite in .40 S&W?
He has a Sig 226 .40 S&W with Rosewood grips IIRC. Nice gun, but the handle is too thick for my hand.

Kinda bought a gun
Except for the BH, which displays them but can't sell them. My Last BH Purchase

I done did it again!
"Dualies" would also have been accepted. Tommy you say dual-fisting and I think of things I've seen on the inter-web I didn't know were humanly possible.

Criminal Records & Firearms
Soooooo my girlfriend's friend and bf want to go shooting with us. She mentioned "Oh I don't know if he has guns cause she said something about him getting in trouble when he was younger..." So the red flag went up. I'm under the impression that felons are not allowed to even hold a firearm. I'm guessing that would include temporary transfer for use at a range? Is that restriction limited to a certain class of felony, does it apply to misdemeanors, and any other information a reputable source could tell me would be greatly appreciated.

what is the law concerning lethal force in ones home?
I'm pretty sure it was .40 S&W. It was a guy casing a shopping mall if I remember correctly.

Whats your typical 25 yard group size?
It really depends more on barrel length for me than ammo type since I don't hand load. Offhand It depends on how long I take to aim between shots and how much coffee I had before shooting. I don't shoot from a sandbag so I can't help you there. Generally I don't shoot past 20 yards indoors since I can't see that far with the lighting at the BH. My 7" S&W22A puts a nice group together. My Glock 22 with Wolf conversion barrel is amazingly accurate. If I'm shooting my subcompact XD or Walther P22 I bring the target in closer so I don't embarrass myself. The Glock and S&W were from 10-15 yards indoors. Sigman's .45 was good to me and gave me a good 5 shot group minus the one I dropped off. I don't have a picture but it was sweet. B)

Bi-Weekly meetup at Bullet Hole
I didn't realize that was you there. Homeland Security's targets had to be close. I couldn't see them from my port... Some of those guys looked older than Krdshrk's Mosin. I might have been seeing things, but I thought I saw a revolver on one guy's hip. It's not their fault really. They're underpaid, shooting isn't cheap, and I'm sure the money set aside for their ammo was redistributed to the "buy people on welfare an iphone" plan. Any time Bob. I always recommend getting a .22LR pistol as a starter, but since you're set on the XD make sure you put in for 2...err... 6 permits.

NJ Handgun Carry Permit Holders ...
The numbers are listed as Concealed Carry Permits. They have asterisks for the states that don't discriminate and for the haters. Do you have to be 21 or 18 for a CCW? I know it's 21 to purchase... Even if NJ just had the national average there would be close to 200,000 permit holders. Instead we have 1200... disgusting.

What the hell is a NJ Carry Permit? Paul you're such a jokester.

Bi-Weekly meetup at Bullet Hole
I received an email from Jen saying it would be after she got back to work after having her baby. It might be time for a follow up email... Their organizational & people skills are lacking. Mine are no better, but I don't own/run my own business. I deal with the general public and I still treat them with respect despite the fact that I'm union and don't have to. If I make a mistake or my company inconveniences our customers I do what I can to clean up the mess or direct them to someone who can. Just a thought although it might be a novel one..

Make sure they have the friggin box & mags BEFORE they mark up your permit.

Fort DIX this weekend?
Pete I didn't buy a shirt. Did the other Chris buy one? The poncho was a life saver although I wish I had my full length one I found in my closet after I got home. My pants were soaked, but at least my feet were dry. The drive home was brutal. 2 hours from the bakery/diner/lounge. If I didn't hit the mystery traffic by exit 140 to mile 147.5 I would have saved 30 min. Shane if it was when your son shot the water buffalo it was a grapefruit not an apple, but none-the-less that was an amazing shot. I was the guy shooting at the table with Nick.

Fort DIX this weekend?
I'm surprised nobody shot my guns. Except Shanes's son who may or may not have blown up a grapefruit. I leave them out and I expect you to shoot them! Thanks to Tony for letting me shoot those goodies. It was nice to put faces to the names.

Fort DIX this weekend?
I didn't realize it's over 2 hours to get there. Guess I should have checked that earlier. Oh well. I'm going to be one grumpy mofo tomorrow at 5 am.

Fort DIX this weekend?
Dick's in Paramus doesn't have targets! They have a whole aisle for deer hunting instead. I picked up a 3 lb. bag of apples, a couple giant grapefruits, and a 12 pack of seltzer water for targets. I asked the guy if they had any rotten fruit at the Stop&Shop and he said they just threw it out. The guy asked me out of curiosity what I was going to do with it. I told him I was going to blow it up and he made this face => He then gave me a high five and told me I was his hero. I have a wooden frame stand for Cherry Ridge, but it has 2X2 legs I believe. They're square and won't go into the ground. I have a few 25 yd slow fire pistol targets to use for the 5.56 and a bunch of Caldwell Orange Peel stickers for pistol. There wouldn't happen to be a 24 hr Walmart on my way down there that sells targets perhaps?

Sulfa Powder
Not exactly what you're looking for, but I just picked this up at Dick's and it's going in my medikit.
-
Fort DIX this weekend?
7:45 it is. Non-member. What sort of sticks do you use to put the fruit on? Cleaning everything I have and planning on bringing it all. Sounds like I need to make a trip to Dick's & Shoprite for targets.

Emergency Preparedness at Work
If they supplied it I'd be happy about it. Giving us a list has in their lawyers' eyes released them from any and all liability. We're not permitted to have weapons on company property.

Emergency Preparedness at Work
You know the world is going to hell in a hand basket when your employer encourages you to bring a bug out bag to work.

Boom, boom, boom....
I'm still holding out. She asked me "Don't you think if we had a kid.. you know not now but later... wouldn't it be so cute?" My retort: "With your big a** and giant feet and my small hands and ugly mug that kid would be as ugly as sin." I think that shut her up temporarily. BTW Congrats Jon and after you said that she did what? I woulda got smacked for that! She made a sad face and said if we ever have kids that she is going to tell them what I said about them being ugly. I would rather have gotten smacked.

Fort DIX this weekend?
Got my car back. It was a busted radiator hose. I'm bringing my 20-60x spotting scope. maybe someone can show me how to adjust the darned thing. If anybody has a P30 or P30L I'd love to try it. I think it's going to be between the P30L and Sig 226 e2 for my next purchase. Ray if there is a deli or Dunkin Donuts nearby we can grab a cup o' joe and then head over there. I don't know where I'm going. I got mine sighted in for 50 yds last time at Cherry Ridge. That's a 5.5" target with the rings 1 inch apart. I'm not really a rifleman, but I'm satisfied with those results for my limited ability with a rifle. Once I got it to stop shooting high it's putting a decent group together.

how NOT to park on a railroad...
A train buff conductor I work with has a set of train horns on his car. Not my style but they're still pretty badass.
