Welcome from NW PRNJ. Both my wife and I have most of our families in South Florida. That's the only reason we stay up here. Ken

Looks like that ship already sailed. K

Not to worry... we'll be talking the forum up in a big way. K

We were at Cherry Ridge this past Saturday and the RO reminded us that next weekend (4/25-26) is a working weekend on the property and the ranges will be closed. Apparently, they have fewer volunteers then in the past, so they're looking for members to volunteer to help do whatever it is they do on these days. We've only been members since December, so I don't have any idea what the workload is, but it looks like a good opportunity to give back something for all the time we spend there. Anyone who wants to help out should show up at the clubhouse no later then 8:30 in the morning on Saturday and/or Sunday. Ken

Ironic, isn't it? Anti gun socialist will go down in history as the greatest firearms salesman in the history of the world. Nice legacy. Ken

My wife and I both enjoy handguns, as well as my son. Her Dad was a competitive shooter, so she was all for it when we decided to jump into the sport. The 3 of us applied for our FID at the same time, and since Jordan is only 19, he wasn't able to purchase a handgun. When we bought our guns, he picked up a Mossberg 500 12 gauge and pushes slugs through that when we go to the range. He's becoming impressively good out to 100 yds. with just a front bead on the 500. When he's away at school, we keep the 500 loaded with buckshot and within reach as an HD weapon.

Thanks to all for the welcome. Thanks. In a past life I owned a commercial photography studio, and PS is just part of the skillset. I don't have the studio anymore, but I still like to dabble. Cool. We try to get to the range every couple of weeks or so, depending on ammo availability. It would be nice to get to know more people there, or even to have a shooting buddy (besides Lynn). Maybe we can get together sometime. We're planning on being there tomorrow (Saturday). Let me know. Ken

Hi all, I'm Ken, and just found this site from a link sent from Hand Gun Forum. It's nice to see a NJ specific shooters board, and I hope to participate here regularly. My wife and I are sort of new to NJ shooting, but not to guns. Her Dad was a competitive shooter, NRA instructor and 2A advocate in Florida, and whenever we visited, we spent some (a lot of) "family time" at the ranges down there. We didn't really think about owning weapons up here until Nov. 4, when two things became obvious: 1. There's a real possibility that the zombies are coming 2. If we don't commit to our rights now, we may not have the chance in the future. Also, her Dad passed away at about the same time, and we consider this a small memorial to him. We got our permits, got our first handguns, and joined the range at Cherry Ridge. We're having a good time, and everyone we meet in the NJ shooting community are like minded, standup Americans. No whackos yet. We're fortunate to have friends who are LEOs, and they pointed us in the right direction as to our first purchases. One even came with us to Ray's to walk us through the sale. Lynn wound up with a Walther P22 (which she loves) and I felt very comfortable with a S&W M&P 40. Our LE friend said his dept. just switched to the M&P and their range scores went up 30 points average. I'd eventually like to shoot as well as that gun can. Right now, it's a better shooter then I am. Our second round of permit apps is in the works, and we're looking at some flavor of 9mm for both of us. She's ready to step up, and I really like the Berettas and CZ pistols. Still doing research, and all opinions are welcome. Enough rambling. Like I said, I hope to become a regular participant here, and in the shooting community as well. Ken
