There has been much debate on the use of HP ammo in NJ. I read the following link several times, and it is just not sinking in. Can someone interperet? All I want to know is, can I use hollow point ammo for self defense in my home in new jersey. http://www.state.nj.us/njsp/about/fire_hollow.html

Hahaha nice! I gotta get the camera timing down pat I guess.

Ray Ray...I got them from cheaper than dirt, I will put a link at the bottom. They have several different less lethal rounds to choose from. Suprisingly enough I actually never shot one, so I could not tell you about the recoil :oops: . I should shoot a few so I know what to expect if the need ever arises. They also have rounds with a bright dye loaded in them for ID purposes...pretty neat. These are the ones I have: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/AMM831-5.html

Wow ... very cool! Those pics are a hunters dream! Maybe I will just get a full auto machine gun and I will be able to get plenty of muzzle flash pics!

How in the hell do you get those shots??? They are incredible!

haha I feel the same way abount hunting. I shot a squirrel...went up to it, and said to myself...what the hell did I just do! I felt so bad. But oh well...some people just arent meant to hunt. My wife calls me a wimp, she hunted all her life with her dad. Its just not for everyone.

Nice pics! Awesome shot with that muzzle flash!!!

lol...thanks for the compliment!! I cant find the vids...we will snap some pics tomorow for posting.

haha Mr. Personality. I went there about 10 years ago, and dealt with him...vowed to never go back and never did. WHY on earth would you be so miserable?? Especially when you own a retail store...arent you supposed to be nice to customers? Or is that just a myth??

Its a great rifle, one of my favorites. With the mags, I'm not sure if they will fit in any other rifles, I'm assuming not, because the mag well should be the same on my rifle as the other rifles listed. Tony, I'm planning on sending them out tomorow, and yes, they should pay for shipping too, I'll see where I get. They did send me a return label and return form in the box. I read the fine print on the return form and it says, "all returns incur a $4.95 restocking fee" lmao...I hope they are kidding!! I cant see them doing that for a defective product. Oh well...we'll see what happens I guess. It just aggrivates me ,... it seems that nothing I buy ever works! Now I have to go thru the hassles.

I ordered 2 mags for my marlin .22 model 7000 from sportsmansguide.com . Finally got them in and they dont fit!!! I dont know, maybe its me...The description of the mag was , "Dependable performance! This high-capacity 15-rd. Mag fits Marlin

Absolutely! lol....I have other things to do there also.

Thanks Ken...I actually have video as soon as I figure out #1 how to upload it to youtube, second how to post it on here, I will edit this post with it.

I'm going to be taking a trip to PA either today or tomorrow to try and find some ammo...I'm going to call around first to see what is available. Specifically looking for .22 bulk packs. If I find some I will take the trip....anyone want me to get them some?

Thanks alot!

The reason for a combo of buck and slugs is...buckshot is better for "close up" applications, and slugs are better if you want to reach out and touch someone, up to a certain point. I have ghost ring sights on my mossberg so it can be better aimed than one with a bead. Reason for the first shot being a bean bag round is, NJ loves to prosecute homeowners protecting themselves. With the first shot being a less lethal round, it looks better in court, not to mention, I dont actually want to take someones life unless I absolutely have to. If they dont get the point after being shot with the less lethal round then, to be blunt, it sucks to be them. As for having "so many' weapons by the bed, well...we have no kids yet, we do have one on the way, so the gun arrangement will soon change. Long arms will go in the safe, and pistols will be placed in the biometric lock boxes. Anyway, on occasion I work late and she is home alone. Both her and I feel safer having one on my side and one on her side. Also, take another "for instance". It's 3:00 am a burgler is in the house, and standing over my side of the bed. By the time she wakes me up (I sleep thru anything) and I come to my senses, she can just as easily grab a 12 gauge which is within arms reach of her and do what she has to do. Hey Ken...I NEEEED a flame thrower!!! Any Idea where I can pick one up??? hahaha

I was lucky enought to marry a girl who's father was the range master at a police department, an avid hunter and gun collector. She has been around guns all her life and loves to shoot. Before she came along I have been in relationships with girls who didn't like guns. No matter how I tried to explain it to them, it just didn't sink in. I think for most LEGAL gun owners, our firearms mean alot to us. However funny it may sound, I think we take pride in caring for them, cleaning them, and preserving them. We pay alot of money for them, and for someone just to just not "get it" is like a slap in the face. I could live with my wife not "enjoying" them, but I could not live with her not "liking" them, or not allowing them in the house. Thats why my ex's are my ex's and thats also why I did this...

Sounds good....but where is the file @ ? Thanks!

Absolutely...on my side a mossberg 590 special purpose first round is a bean bag, 4buck after that, side saddle with 00 buck and 2 slugs in the speed feed stock, and a surefire light with pressure switch. And on the wifes side a Rem 870 with AR stock, side saddle and surefire light, same ammo config.

My side - Taurus PT1911 W/ TLR-1 Streamlight .45 Loaded with winchester supreme t-series 230 Gr. HP's. (my avater) My Wifes side - Glock 27 - 40 caliber Loaded with Federal 155 Grain Hydra-Shok HP's. But neither of those are what we would grab first

Yeah...I just saw those pis on TGZ13's post about his first trip to the range and I saw his targets....pretty cool! Where can I print them from?
