Greetings, and welcome to the group.

I never, not even for a moment, doubted that. I bloviate sometimes when people (not you, just in general) think that personal responsibility doesn't apply to them, and that everything that happens to them is someone else's fault. Goes way back to "I passed the test" or "That bastige teacher failed me on the test". Just ignore me. Everyone else does.

Why is it crazy? Better to be arrested than to be killed by a cop when some moron whirls around with his realistic toy gun while mugging some old lady. Why on earth paint the muzzle black? Is the gun not "real" enough with the orange "this is a toy" markings? What about when the scumbags paint the muzzle of their real guns orange? Does that make them any less of a danger?

I don't know where you're located, but if you're a convenient distance to PA, WalMart has the least expensive 9mm available. WWB/50 round for 8.97 - 100 round for under 20 bucks. They don't always have it, but when they do, it's the best deal around. There are a few WM stores not too far from the border, and I'm sure there are a handful around Philly (if that's where you are). K

Way, way too much sharing.

What will it take to persuade our great and benevolent leader (Maks, not Barry) to attend?

Doc, sorry for your loss.

Trying to get Jordan to commit is a futile exercise. I won't know until later in the week. He just started school and has no idea what his workload is going to be. I'll try to find out if Dave (bandoleer man) is coming. He's going to D.C. on Saturday to protest something, and may not be around. I'll post when I know anything for sure.

Greetings and welcome.

Just a quick bump for the last minute types among us.

Haven't you been listening to Corzine??? There are no bears in NJ.

I was looking for downloadable score sheets and came across these links: Suggested initial aim points for trap. http://www.nssf.org/jrusa/PDF/07TrapScoreSheet.pdf An assortment of score sheets http://www.whiteflyer.com/targetscoresheet.html

Not to put too fine a point on this, but: Doesn't say anything about someone's north 40.

That's been making it's way around the 'net for a while. I think it was busted as being fake, but it's fun to read anyway.

I don't know about the procedures at other ranges, but when I joined CR, I signed a "Temporary Transfer" document that allows the sharing of firearms on the range property. I don't know what the consequences, if any, would be if I didn't, and then borrowed someone else's gun to try or let someone else try mine. They said it's a good idea to sign it, and I did. It may be overthinking, but remember where we live. We are grudgingly allowed to pursue our hobby, while the state looks for any opportunity to step in and prosecute the smallest infraction of the most ridiculous laws.

I've thought about this a couple of times before. Friends of mine have a bunch of acreage up here, and do some shooting on their own property, but I've been reluctant to to join them. If you're on your own property, and there aren't any "No Discharge" ordinances, and you're shooting your own legally owned and NJ compliant guns and obeying any local restrictions, fine. But, if I visit and Jim says "Here, check out this gun" and hands it to me to shoot, isn't that an illegal transfer of a weapon? If I bring my own guns to shoot, aren't I stretching the transportation laws, since I'm not going to a shop, range, etc.? And, since it's not my property, am I actually allowed to shoot there unless I'm legally hunting in season, with licenses and whatever permits? I just politely decline the invitations, but damn, wouldn't it be nice? A definitive answer would be great.

Which Walmarts have this? i went to the one on route 59 in suffern. 1st time i went they had a ton of 9mm and a good amount of 40. last time they had neither. 6 box limit was posted both times It's hit or miss. I scored some 9mm at WalMart in Milford last week. Got there around 8 in the morning. They had 1 case of WWB 100 that hadn't even been unpacked yet. Took the limit (6), so I'm okay for a couple of weeks. They had plenty of .40, no .357, .38 or .22. Other days I've come up completely dry, or just found some .22. No way to predict it. We sometimes call first to see what's available, and sometimes just roll the dice and take the ride up.

Rose, Outstanding!! Congratulations on your first outing.

Which Walmarts have this? Any of the ones in PA (when they have them)

I've been trying Brillo. Ouch!

Don't have a hissy fit. People who want to go will go, and people who don't, won't. You can't force anyone to have a good time. And besides, it's still a couple of weeks away. Plenty of time.

I shoot at Cherry Ridge. I'm not much of a rifle guy, mostly handguns and just recently got into clays, but I have an old single shot .22 that's fun on the silo range there. Some of the other local guys here are hardcore rifle shooters, and a couple of them are joining up at CR this month. Come out for the group shoot on the 13th. There'll be plenty of like minded long gun folks for you to get together with. Where do you normally shoot? Ken

I'm guessing a bunch of the local guys are waiting to be sure they're free for the day. There'll probably be a last minute rush of additions to the list. There's at least 3 or 4 more names I'm expecting to see on the list (you know who you are ).
