Kinda a little skurred to bring this topic back up but just wanted to give an update and ask a question. Had the gun back out again and its shooting fairly well. I need to get a good rest to get the scope finally dialed in and see what kinda groupings its going to give me. I also looked up the serial number and it seems it was built between 1989 and 1990 so its a little on the older side Quick question, what does everyone use to take care of an all wood stock???

And this is why I think it is absolute bs that we as hunters are not allowed to carry a handgun when we hunt. +1 I wonder if anyone has seen a bear run down a deer. I have. I wonder if anyone has seen how fast they really are. Land and climbing. I have. They ARE to be feared. Welcome to New Jersey, home of the stupid! It really cracks me up with the stupid rules etc that happen in this state. Just like all of these people crying about bear hunts. I totally understand that we as people are invading in on their territory but were here and unless you feel like giving up your spot on the earth for the bear then shut your trap. The thing I love is the same people crying about bear hunts are going to be the first one screaming at the top of the lungs if a loved one of theirs gets hurt by a bear its quite pathetic. Anyway sorry mal for getting off topic. Keep the pictures coming, but I want better quality pictures from you mister, this one was a little on the lame side

How was the C&R selection and prices? Rich if your looking to go and want someone to bs with during the drive I'd be more than happy to tag along. I would offer to drive, but you probably wouldn't wanna drive in the beast for two hours compared to the smooth ride of your pimp whip.

yeah yeah yeah shhh I just corrected the other thread but I mean really if it makes sense for more people to show up on the 12th then we'll do it the 12th.

And this is why I think it is absolute bullshit that we as hunters are not allowed to carry a handgun when we hunt.

ahhh yes apparently I'm not very smart and can't figure out that I must look at the S on the left of the calender instead of the one on the right. I can't probably do either day doesn't really matter to me so whatever works for everyone else is fine with me. The normal day would be September 13th but if it makes more sense for everyone, the 12h is fine as well. sorry for the confusion guys

September 12, 2009 is our next monthly meetup. It will be the second sunday of the month. If need be, us North guys might even travel if it makes more sense

Ya know Ken, the problem is Matt doesn't see organizing this as a chore! So it doesn't really count as penance/atonement. As far as I'm concerned, Matt has completed his penance and is officially forgiven. But, I'm still keeping my eyes open. :oops: And no way, orgainizing this is definitely not a job to me. I enjoy meeting new people, even if they want to take cigar cutters to certain body parts but then again, he does come from sussex so that does say a lot Whose your buddy Ken! Anyway if we can get everyone that came this time to go again, and have Dan show up that gives us 11. Also if we can get Bill to come and I believe there was another guy interested that would give us 13 people, that would be amazing. So to everyone September 12, 2009 is the next Monthly clay bird shoot, and I expect to see everyone from today and some new guys come out.

Ahhhhh there he be! Once again sorry I forgot your name but it was nice meeting you. And definitely hope to see you at the next meet it should be a rip roaring time if I have anything to do with it

Don't worry Ken, I am going to be getting stuff in the works. We might even have to take the Monthly Clay meet on the road if it means meeting up with these fabled southern guys. I'm not even sure if these guys even shoot. I mean they sure do a lot of talking, but I havn't seen any proof yet so who knows haha Ken I think your just not use to the length. Thats a lot of gun you got there. And its an extremely robust gun I think you just need to get use to it. I can tell you one thing, you don't have to worry about that thing breaking, that thing is built like a tank I have a feeling your going to love it in the long run. It really is a nice shooter and I enjoyed shooting it, but I must say, Tom's guns win hands down out of all the shotties there today. Shooting those guys were the most enjoyable shooting I have yet to date.

Don't worry Ken, the south is jealous of our Awesomeness!! But on a more serious note, I really hope sometime in the near future we can get a combined group shoot for all of NJGF guys. We do enjoy busting on each other but it really would be nice if we could get the whole family together for a shoot, but I'd even settle for just a get together we some Beer and some food. It really would be nice to meet all these other guys I've been talking to for some long, but never getting to put a face to a name. So who is already thinking about next month??? I know I am LOL

You better be there, I owe you some clay birds Glad everyone had a good time, and that this monthly shoot is really starting to shape up into some awesome. TB, what do you think, you and chad going to come up for the September shoot possibly???? We had 10 this month, I'd really like to see between 13-15 North guys, and maybe some south guys if they are interested in the drive. I might actually head out to BA this tuesday but I really don't want to shoot the .40 so who knows. We shall see.

Mark, thank you for that fantastic picture of me. It really makes me look like I have a brain within that skull of my head

Troy that GTO is GORGEOUS I am quite jealous. I think you should bring it to the ridge next time haha Ken I can't wait to see the mugshot that we took, it should be just awesome! And Richie, if you arn't there on the first sunday, I might just actually laugh at you. You have spent about half the price of a full membership in guest fee's. That range sure loves you for your contribution.

Kia Soul. Never saw one of those yet. How do you like it? And it was an awesome turnout today. Check the other thread for more information. I will be starting a new Monthly clay bird thread end of next week to get the ball rolling for the next one. Thanks again guys for making it such a good time! ps Rich, you never broke out the .243, I feel jipped

Well it was a gorgeous day for shooting, and gorgeous it turned out. Around 12:30 Ken, Richie, Mark (Mal), Troy (67gt...), Pete (Caine), and myself all met up at the Ridge. We went over toe the .22 range and blasted a bunch of rounds. It was like a swarm of bee's when we showed up at the .22 cal range it was a good showing. It also turns out and I apologize is advance because I already forgot your name, but there was already another NJGF member there already. Then at 2pm the group got even bigger. Tom(nj tom), Dave (FOK) and two other gentlemen, I apologize in advance because I have also forgot your names. I'm terrible with names. Anyway it turned out to be 10 people showed up I believe for the monthly clay bird meet and shoot we did. I know the group shooting on Tom's thrower went through 4 boxes of clays and we even set up a little fun tournament and it turned out Tom and Richie tied for first place with getting 20 out of 25 so that was pretty cool. I do want to give a big thanks to Tom for bringing the electronic thrower and also supplying two boxes of clays. Tom that thrower is awesome, and those two pieces of art you brought were awesome as well. You really are trying to empty my pockets But once again, thanks again for coming and supplying us with some stuff your a gentleman and a scholar and you even gave me some tips to improve my shooting and they definitely helped so THANKS!! I got your clay birds when you come back from vacation. I also want to give a shout out to everyone else that showed up. Without you guys there would be no Monthly meet and it is great getting out and meeting a bunch of you guys, shootin the BS and also trying to find ways to recruit new members so that we can challange the South with their awesome turnouts they get on tuesdays at BA. So for all you boys who arn't members at the ridge yet, I hope to see you there the first sunday of next month. For you guys that don't have shotguns, I hope we showed you an excellent time, and I hope to see you out there next time with a shotty in your hands. Last but not lease, but sorry Dan, I gotta say it, you missed an AMAZING time. But no worries, next month will be even better, so make sure your calendar is free! Big mouth Matt signing off to go clean some guns! PS if I missed anyone I am terribly sorry, my brain is in 24 places at once and my memory isn't too good these days at the whopping age of 24, so I do apol0gize in advance. PSS I believe Ken will be positing a picture of the group turnout!

Not sure, but perhaps this? LINK NOW THAT LOOKS LIKE FUN!!!! Who wants to chip in and buy one with me?

haha shhhhh don't tell anyone Dan. Thats my secret DUH. I still can't believe your going to miss today, we are going to have an awesome turnout!

OHHHH thats right you traded it in for your cash for clunker I totally forgot. What did you buy now???

sight adjustment tool????? just cross your eyes, you add another target, you double your chances

does anyone have a picture of the gun that the very last bullet goes into, that thing looks like its a missle LOL very cool picture maks, i looked at it for like 15 minutes last night

Nahhhh Mark is just really good with camera's. It's the angle of the picture, that guy is really just a cub, no more than like 150-200 lbs. He's just a big ball of fur. I could give him a run for his money in a wrestling match. I'll just poke him in his eyes. Disclaimer: This was written while totally sober

Richie, you bringing those babies tomorrow BTW?

I must say I havn't met someone from the North that I don't like to shoot with. Shooting with all of them is usually just a laid back, here's my gun, go throw some rounds through it and have a blast. The North Jersey group keeps expanding which makes me quite happy. I can't wait to see how many people show up tomorrow for the Monthly clay bird meet but if I had to say who was my favorite, it'd have to be Mal, since he got me off my lazy butt and turned me into a shooting feen!

I'd wrestle him like I wrestle with my big dumb chocolate lab. Their about the same size
