Glock 26. 8-) I understand the OP's pain though - Glock's subcompacts are small, but they are not necessarily small hand friendly. I have large-ish hands. If you're buying as a "NJ Only" with no consideration for carrying then get a larger framed 9mm. It will be easier to aim and get back on target after each shot. I bought my G26 with the intention of carrying it once I move out of NJ so I'm sticking with it. Didn't do too badly with it in my 2nd IDPA match yesterday (2nd out of 5 in class sub-division).

A youtube interview that fleshes it out a little more, but still missing lots of details. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdJRDSTnaWw

Following up on this, finally got the XS sights off and replaced with regular night sights. I ended up detail stripping the slide and putting it in a toaster oven at 450 degrees for 10 minutes. This softened the loctite enough that I was able to remove the front sight screw and loosen the rear sight set screws. Several sharp taps with a hammer and delrin punch loosened up the rear sight. Had to do a bit of de-scaling with a sharp pin to get all the loctite out of the front sight hole and rear dove tail. Unfortunately this also melted the plastic mount for the tritium vial in the front sight, but the tritium vial stayed intact. It also melted the firing pin channel liner in the slide (*oops*, forgot that was there). Luckily that just fell out instead of adhering to the slide and was only a $3 replacement part. Lessons learned: - Make sure your sights are aligned correctly, that they allow you to shoot accurately and you're satisfied with them before locking them down "permanently" - Don't blindly follow everything that guy from tactical response advocates

Off the wall ideas: Assuming you have a gun safe now - get a locksmith to change the combination/code and only disclose it to your attorney who will only disclose it to you when divorce is finalized. Attorney and you both execute affidavit stating you do not have the ability to open safe. Or... Attorney rents storage unit that only he knows location of/has access to, and transfers your gun safe to that location. Or attorney buys new gun safe for storage unit, and only attorney knows safe combo and only attorney can access storage unit.

You can get yourself 2 USA parts on the Storm by buying a metal trigger and hammer (to replace the stock plastic ones) from this guy: http://www.sierrapapacx4.com/

Congrats, it's a beaut. If I was starting from scratch with a shotty I'd definitely get an 870 too.

Wow, glad to hear y'all had a great time, bummed I missed it.

Welcome Doc!

The stock w/pistol grip is straight off their tactical shotguns too. I bet it's the exact same part #.

congrats!

Regrettably I now can't make it, have a family visit on Sunday that has to take precedence.

I've shot S&B 12 gauge shotgun ammo at the BH before without issues. Didn't ask permission, but all the empty shells at my feet that the range attendant was sweeping up clearly said S&B.

BH has never asked to see my FPID to shoot... Mine either

Whoops! How the F did I end up thinking it was tomorrow!? :cry:

Dick's in East Hanover has about 5-6 boxes of remington 9mm ($15/50 box) as well as 20 packs of Hornady 9mm HP and several bulk 250 packs of remington .40 S&W.

Ok, I will bring $ for pizza and leave the food at home. Looking forward to meeting y'all tomorrow and seeing how bad I suck at clays (never shot skeet before).

Pizzas is great, is that definite? If so I'll leave the food at home and just bring $.

Thanks for sharing, Amer Eagle 9mm FMJ brass case for $11/50 is a deal in current ammo market.

Is it too late to crash this? I have a lot going on Sunday but I can make it for the afternoon. Doug Non-Member Arriving 1:00-2:00ish Bringing 12 ga semi-auto shotty, 9mm CX4 Storm, could also bring .22LR GSG5 if there's interest. If there is a cookout still brewing let me know what I can bring (I have some awesome italian sausage sitting in the fridge).

PK, thanks !! Theiqcrew, nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

Any glock gurus out there? A friend (I swear it is isn't me 8-) ) has a relatively new Glock 19 that he tried to install an aftermarket trigger connector in. He botched something up, because now he can only depress the trigger slightly; it doesn't actually release the firing pin. While the slide still runs back and forth, he claims he now can't field strip it because the trigger isn't hooked up correctly. I'm hearing all this over the phone and will run over to see it this weekend to try and diagnose what's up. I'm no expert, but I have detailed stripped and re-assembled my G26 several times correctly. Any ideas on how to release the slide from the frame without an actual full trigger pull, or anything I should be looking at first?

9mm for both pistol and carbine, but I have a set price/round over which I won't buy. 12 gauge 00 buckshot and slugs - no trouble getting as much of these as I want. .22 LR federal bulk packs - have yet to see one in a store.

For 5 grand you'd figure the seller could find the time to take some better pictures.

Just got an order update email from Bass Pro and, of course, the 9mm ammo is backordered... :roll:

I'll be going back to Somerset on the 20th for my 2nd IDPA match.
