Tactical has jumped the shark

I have a Beretta Neos - not a terribly popular gun, I guess, but i like it. Ergonomics are a little different but its never failed and I shoot CHEAP ammo. Also, very easy to field strip and clean.

No - wish it was that fast! FFL will hold the gun for me until the permits come through. Besides, seller bass a two week hold for personal checks, which is how I paid. Definitely give Jack a call. He always says if we haven't heard in four weeks we should call him. Good luck! What're you looking to get?

First: I'm awaiting a P226 in 9mm, E2 grip, night sights and SRT. Now shopping for the second one...

Wow, very nice. I'm jealous. Where, and if you don't mind, how much?

Well, I'm not in. My CBOB is on its way to Dan Wesson for repair and my P226 is waiting for my P2P. I consider this time period "ammunition conservation" time.

Sounds like someone dragging an empty dumpster up an alley.

Hello and welcome!

Very nice, the ground pounders favorite. I was maintenance most of my career, heavies though. Bombers, tankers, trash haulers.

Hello and welcome!

Welcome from Mercer (Ewing). Also, welcome from another USAF-er (retired). AFSC?

Um... I'm with Kenw

I remember doing ABDR! Good times, good times. Congrats on the win!

7% sales tax in this state - that counters shipping and FFL fees in many cases, especially when the gun is $1000+. For guns under $1000, factor in that online/out-of-state prices are lower and it's either a wash or it falls in favor of non-local sellers. Why do our local stores charge so much more than stores in other states? Is there a legal/tax/fee burden that NJ puts on them beyond other states? If pricing is based on demand I would expect lower prices in NJ - assuming we have a lower percentage of gun owners vs., say, Texas. But that's an assumption and you know what assuming gets you.

That would be my Dan Wesson CBOB.

I tried - I don't think it's very worthwhile. After I applied a BATFE agent visited to explain the limitations of a C&R in NJ. One big advantage, not needing to use an FFL for an out-of-state purchase on C&R rifles, doesn't exist in NJ. You may still get some "C&R prices from dealers, so that could be worth it to you. I'm not sure how much those discounts amount to. PLUS, you of course need to keep detailed records of all your purchases and sales. My two cents.

Haven't shot a wide variety (M9, Colt .38 revolver, Glock 17, Sig 2022, S&W .44 Magnum, Dan Wesson CBOB, Beretta 90-Two, Springfield XD9, Beretta Neos) but the S&W 1911 E series is the winner.

Very nice! What'd you use to draw it? Autocad?

I'm doing that - in this case the tax I'd pay for a NJ purchase is about equal to shipping and fees. If the difference is $20, I'll gladly go local.

I agree and would love to support local businesses. I'll try a price request again, but the results of my last one showed prices over $100 plus tax more than online.

I realize it's really just an agent for sellers, but any thoughts on using Gunsamerica.com?

.58 mini ball from a repro Springfield 1861, once. Otherwise the venerable 7.62x54R or M2 ball.

Just one round IS one MOA at a100 yards!

On my resolution list for this year

In Ewing? Wish I knew about him earlier. I took mine to Classic Pistol a couple of years ago.(apparently the gunsmith there enjoys his WWII guns). BTW, nothing was wrong, except the Enbloc clips I was using were cheap knock-offs.
