  1. I should be able to make next Tuesday.
  2. How much do you reload? What do you reload? I've been reloading .40 S&W, .45ACP, and 38 Sp. I'm just starting to load 9mm and .223. I usually keep about 500 rounds of each loaded and about the same of preped cases. I prep the cases because I currently use a single stage press. All I have to do is load powder, seat bullet, and crimp. I like reloading about as much as shooting!
  3. They don't sell AR or AK related parts (sights, mags, tools, etc.) to NJ. They wouldn't sell me a AR front sight adjusting tool, but they'll sell the ammo. I asked them why and they said they were sued by a NJ lawyer for selling an AR related item to a minor. I believe they price match on in stock ammo from other sites, but you need to call them.
  4. Nothing on the ground in north jersey, but I'll be cleaning brass today. Have the tumbler running right now.
  5. I shoot at the head all the time with hand guns. They just don't like head shots with shotguns and high power rifle. They don't like high power rifle head shots because the backstop is a little thinner higher up and people shoot the target hangers down with shotguns. BTW - had a good time last night and thanks for your brass! Ray, I think it was you that said you had a bunch of 38 sp. I'll trade you some 38 sp. hand loads if you don't want them. I am a brass hound.
  6. OK - if you can move the back of your mag up and down with the mag latch closed, you will experience jams. I had 2 pmags that did it. I epoxied a small piece of steel on the magazine where the latch makes contact. I used a 2 part epoxy made by Loctite. I then filed the metal piece so that the mag was up tight in the mag well. Since then, I have had no jams. You could probably try gluing a piece of hard plastic and filing it. I also ordered a couple of 10 round metal magazines from cheaper than dirt and experienced the same problem. It was worse with the metal mags. I fixed these also by fitting a metal tab on the mag lip and filing it to fit. I used JB Weld on the metal mag. It's possible the mag latch on you rifle is a little short. I was going to order another latch for my rifle, but the built up piece on the magazine is working so I haven't got around to it yet. This is on a double stach WASR 10. I also have a single stack WASR 10 with no feed problems, but the magazines fit better. The mags don't have the up and down movement like my double stack WASR 10.
  7. Back in the spring before I started reloading, I think I waited a month or two. That was at a time though when it was extremely hard to find ammo. Sometimes you can call them and get an approx. ship date. I've even changed orders if I see another brand in stock. I had winchester primers on back order for months. I saw some CCI in stock and changed the order no problem. BTW - the Hamburg store is awesome. They have racks and racks of rifles and several long cases filled with handguns. There is also a room filled with used guns for sale - some are collectors items and very expensive. There was a good selection of reloading supplies although they were short on primers.
  8. I meant to say each - momentary brain spaz.
  9. Henderson Defense also has them. I bought 2 and they came out to 26.70 each including shipping. http://shop.hendersondefense.biz/category.sc;jsessionid=9FBD1CA827784224ECD405198E7C910E.qscstrfrnt05?categoryId=17
  10. I have a P226 equinox in .40S&W. It's an excellent pistol. I reload .40 S&W pretty cheap. You may also want to look at the 239 if you want it for CCW. It's a little more narrow which may be more comfortable to carry. I shot a P239 in .40 S&W and really liked it. I went with the P226 since the prmary function was target and home defense. I would probably go with the P239 for CCW. The night sight on the equinox is awesome.
  11. I bought my wife a P95. She picked it out because she liked the fit and it was easy for her to rack the slide. I was really surprised when I shot the gun. It shoots nice and is accurate. I really like shooting it. It's not one of the more popular models, but for the price it is a nice pistol. I like Rugar guns. I also have a GP100 which is an excellent revolver. It has a safety which decocks the pistol. It is DA/SA action.
  12. I just went through the same dilema. I picked up a Colt Match Target MT6700. It has a 20" HBAR I can shoot indoors with the iron sights, or slap a scope on it and do some long range shooting outside if I want. I can also buy another upper if I want a shorter barrel length. I'll probably still pick up a bolt action at some point, but for right now the AR serves me better.
  13. Cabela's also has small rifle. I just have them shipped to NYC since they won't ship to Jersey. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat602007-cat20728-cat20843&id=0003187210757a&navCount=6&podId=0003187&parentId=cat20843&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=9IS&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat20843&hasJS=true
  14. What material is Lizard Litter? So, options are: Corn-cob, Walnut Shells, sand blasting media ... How do you separate from media the "gunk" that's bound to come off of fired brass? I would think Corn-cob or Walnut Shells will eventually get dirty ... Sand media will also get mixed with the "gunk", might not get as dirty, but it still would need to be cleaned somehow ...? The lizard litter that I have seen is crushed walnut shell. I've been mixing it with corn cob since I was low on corn cob and it works pretty good. I still think the corn cob may shine the brass a little better than the lizzard litter - not sure about that yet. I've also been mixing a tablespoon of paint thinner in with the brass polish which also works well. Some of the brass I've been getting is very dirty so I've been washing it in a solution of lemon juice and dawn to get the surface dirt off. Once it's dry, I throw it in the tumbler. This helps extend the life of the corn cob media and shortens the polishing time in the tumbler. I've heard of people washing the walnut shells, but I haven't tried it. I don't believe you can wash corn cob. It will just get moldy.
  15. I'm interested if you need another person to go in on corn cob. Let me know.
  16. Were they really going to sell guns and ammo in the liberal center of the state? This state is run by a bunch of corrupt, brainless, clueless slobs that only look out for their own financial well being. What a shame! BTW - the Hamburg Cabela's is awesome. I make a road trip there occasionally.
  17. I can't help you about the product. It looks like a lead bullet with some type of coating. But...at $111.00 for (1000) 230gr. .45 ACP I would rather buy (1000) 230gr. .45 ACP FMJ from Precision Delta for $114.00. These are excellent high quality FMJ bullets. You can't go wrong with these. These are cheaper than some of the plated bullets I have seen. http://www.precisiondelta.com/detail.php?sku=B-45-230-FMJ When I buy lead, I go to SNS Casting. Excellent bullets and very fast shipping. (1000) .45 ACP Lead RN are $77.00. I use their lead bullets in .38 sp, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. The 180gr. .40 S&W shoot extremely accurate with HP38 in my Sig 226. http://shop.snscasting.com/ Excellent service from both of these places.
  18. Sportsmen's Guide wouldn't ship me an AR-15 front sight post adjusting tool!! The tool is on their freaken ban list. What a joke! Internet vendors are scared of getting sued by our anti-gun lawyers. Thank you NJ - NOT!!
  19. I like that SKS. I would like to add one eventually. I like the idea of a .357 lever action.
  20. You can't go wrong with a Rugar GP100 for the price. I have one and it's an excellent shooter. Check one out.
  21. 3 out of 4 different ammo's that I just checked are on back order. Seems like everytime I try to get ammo from them, they dont actually have it. Ever have any issues with them shipping handgun ammo to NJ? -Scott I have had handgun ammo shipped to Jersey, but they won't ship me primers or powder. Go figure?
  22. I have used Precision Delta for .40 S&W and .45 ACP FMJ's. They are very good quality bullets. 1000 .40 S&W including shipping cost $106.00. This is a very good price. They even called me with a lead time to ship and beat it by a week. I waited about 2 - 3 weeks. http://www.precisiondelta.com/product.php I use S&S casting for lead bullets. Very good price and extremely fast shipping. Only a few days.
  23. Sigman replied to crazyboy's topic in AR Discussion
    Kwin That is a nice rifle you have there.
  24. Reloading is awesome! If you think guns are addicting wait until you start reloading.
  25. Welcome aboard! I don't think Christie really cares about gun rights in this state, and with the liberal machine running this place - I dought anything is going to change. The libs have destroyed this state.
