Cool. I am going to have to look at one when my Toyota Rav4 finally dies. Unfortunately/Fortunately it never seems to.

I have to think there was research done at some point showing a pistol grip had some advantages over traditional stocks (i.e. easier to grip one handed, better able to counteract torsion effects, etc) because all modern military rifles I know of have them. That said, all the way up to and including the M14 in the mid 60's, the US military was shooting rifles with traditional stocks. I don't know that anyone should feel hamstrung if they have a rifle with a regular stock. If my Colt 6940 AR were lost in an awful boating accident, I wouldn't feel undergunned with my Mini-14, which is basically Ruger's interpretation of the M1 Carbine in 223.

Check with Paul (aka PK90). I believe he sold steel AR mags modded for 15 rounds. I don't know if he did the work himself or not.

It is like Sporting Clays for clubs that don't have much room. Each of the 5 stands will have their own pair of unique clay presentations. So instead of moving from hole to hole, like on a Golf or Sporting clays course, you move from stand to stand and shoot over the same physical area. The differences between the stands is that different throwers will be used when shooting from different stands.

I just remember the furor over TinyBoy's $900 Brick Armory WASR around Obama's first election. Things only get worse. Shore Shot is ridiculous.

I know you asked a general question, but here is my rant... FFL's sometimes take it upon themselves to make things even more restrictive than the law calls specifies. Avoid them and use FFL's that will accept from individuals. If you are in Central jersey, PM me and I can name several for you that will accept from individuals and won't gouge you on transfer fees.

My SBI ends in a letter.

I agree, but this Saturday is NOT the NJ2AS rally in Trenton. That one is Feb 8th. And yes, Shawn's tinfoil hats seem a bit snug.

Perhaps your philosophy is why you no longer own it.

Those extra forms are ILLEGAL. Yet many towns do this. She should contact the State police Firearms Unit and inform them of her town's additional requirements. Additionally, she should contact the New Jersey Second Amendment Society. They have a great track record of getting towns to back off from their illegal requirements. www.NJ2AS.com

That wall used to be a lot more crowded than it is now. I can read his lips. He is saying "I have this $2000 WASR for sale".

Take a look at our classifieds. That should give a clue on several forum members to avoid.

As someone who really likes his revolvers, if you are going with a Smith&Wesson to be used for self defense my advice is get an older one. They were made better and don't have that infernal lock that jams up and turns your gun into a paperweight. Don't let people tell you it's an internet rumor. My 629 jammed on me at the range and it took the resident gunsmith to get it un-messed. I sold it the week after. Imagine if it jammed while being used to defend yourself. Take it from Mas Ayoob... http://backwoodshome...rnal-gun-locks/

You can buy a baggie of replacement rings on eBay for a few bucks. For now though, clean the one you have on the gun. They do get crudded up after a while. They are easy to take off/put on. It just slides off the mag tube once the barrel is removed. The Remington 1100 was made to cycle light loads. Mine only failed to cycle if I didn't clean it enough. I do have the Kuhnhausen shop manual series book for the remington 1100/870 models. You are welcome to borrow it if you need to. I am in Monmouth County, near Sandy Hook, so I may be close enough for you to pick it up.

Always a pleasure.

Jeremy is an all around great guy. We did a rifle swap and then did some shooting Saturday. Always a pleasure.

If you are recoil averse, get the Beretta. If you want a nice gun to pass to your kids, get the Beretta. If you want a utilitarian tool, get a Glock (not meant as an insult).

Did you research and choose this one, or was it an aesthetics decision?

Rem cutomer service is always good. They have shipped me parts for free on my Remmy 1100. Why those parts broke or fell off in the first place, well... welcome to 21st Century Remington.

Good experiences, but always takes a while before it actually ships. Like on the order of a week or two. And that is during normal times.

VLTOR Bren Ten vaporware.

I have had that happen too. The seating die had loosened and I was making 45ACP rounds way too long to chamber/feed in my Colt 1911. Thankfully I just threw them in moon clips and ran them out of my Model 25-2.

You can only shoot at paper targets at Cherry ridge. Range 14 has 200 yard rifle ranges too.

For hunting, a 10mm with 200 grain (or higher) hardcast bullets from DoubleTap woul be hard to beat. Don't limit yourself to 38 special either. Get a 357mag and you can shoot either round through it. You can't do that with a 38.

Back in the late 90's I wanted an F150. Because the dealership I went to was also Dodge, on a whim I tried the Ram 1500 and came away much more impressed with the power and how it drove. I know things have changed a bunch since then though.
