Sure thing Doc! I'm doing a practice triathalon earlier that day, so I'm sure I'll have an appetite.

I'll be there, thanks for making this available!

Wow, some very smart looking and jealousy-inducing iron in this thread. Here's my small contribution - baby Glock 26:

welcome dnj90!

Same here, pages load faster than I blink.

The question I'm still interested in having answered: If you used hollowpoint ammo in your home, in a "justified" defense shooting (whatever that means in NJ), could you expect "extra" prosecution for using hollowpoints instead of ball?

Has anyone actually shot that EMFJ and seen if it expands as advertised? Maybe we should donate a box to box 'o truth.

All due respect, but you're wrong. Read up on this thread: http://www.njgunforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=802&p=6464

Assuming I stay with 15 round mags or under and no flash suppressor, any issues with owning a Beretta CX4 storm in 9mm in NJ?

Apparently the Charter arms 9mm wheeler is "on hold" until after Obamania goes away: http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2009/05/26/charter-arms-rimless-revolver-update/

I would seriously hate being on the receiving end of that lead wave. :shock: I'd even hate to be standing in front of the ejector port...

So Ken, pepper spray is completely illegal?

Are there any restrictions on purchasing and/or carrying pepper spray in NJ?

Slept in, cleaned and waxed the car, put up an ebay auction, girlfriend and I rode our bikes 10 miles to a party at friend of hers, rode back home and now I'm about to take on the unending horde of whiny 12-year-olds in Call of Duty 5 on xbox live.

BTW, Glock 21 torture test for reference: http://www.theprepared.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=90&Item

Those are gas operated airsoft replicas. Funny sh#t!

In the very short term (as in buying now and selling in 1-2 years), I think arms/ammo are going to be a lousy investment. Assuming that there is no new firearms legislation that make things more restrictive and that we continue to have ramping unemployment then I think a lot of "black rifles" and stockpiled ammo is going to be showing up on arfcom classifieds and gunbroker for sale by "motivated" sellers. However... Longer term, I think firearms could be considered almost equivalent to precious metals as far as being an inflation hedge if they're purchased during a "non-obamamania" period. And if you do believe that we're in for more restrictive firearms legislation, then they are the best "hedge" against that. I believe the government is going to have much more pressing things to worry about in the next few years than restricting firearms. I bet that continuing to get foreign entities to finance our deficit, continuing to assist states with unemployment benefit financing and welfare and getting the economy turned around without driving it underground via increased taxes are going to get much, much more attention.

Cleaning: Couple passes with a Boresnake, then hoppes with clotch patches and/or brass brush on the barrel, hoppes on an old toothbrush for other parts. Lube: Tetra gun grease. The guy at the boxoftruth suggested it and I like it. Easy to apply exactly where you want it and it stays there without leaking to places that don't need it. http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/edu47_4.htm

Bought 1000 rounds of it last year; have about 200 left. My baby glock ate most of them just fine except for one. One of them completely failed to light off; the primer had a nice solid dent in it from the firing pin, but it apparently did not ignite the powder and the bullet was still firmly seated in the case. That's the only time since I've had the glock that I pulled the trigger with it loaded and it didn't go "boom".

Not a member of any range, was a sporadic visitor to Ray's before it closed and now the bullet hole. Any closer ranges to the Morristown (07960) area? I'd consider joining a closer range that had "reasonable" membership requirements and dues.

They article states the police had a warrant. He couldn't legally refuse them the search if they did:

Welcome Uncle. I'm a relative newbie too. My first and only pistol so far is a Glock 26. Anyone who is going to inspect, service or disassemble any gun should be following the protocol for making sure it is unloaded before starting, including removing the magazine, racking the slide multiple times and checking both by feel and sight that the chamber is empty. Newer glocks, such as mine, have an additional safety feature of the ejector protruding out away from the slide when a round is chambered. If you're doing what you *SHOULD* be doing before servicing any gun then the fact that you have to dry fire a glock to field strip it should not make it any more dangerous than field stripping any other gun.

Wow, that is appalling. So if I want to get a range shut down, all I have to do is throw some bullets on the roof of neighboring buildings? Unreal! Hope they can maneuver around the town council idiots and get it back up and running again.
