I bought my model 19 back in the 70's. They are a fine revolver, "The Combat Masterpiece". I really can't tell from you pics but does it have a target trigger? The hot set-up in the day was "Three T's"

Harry- I didn't know there were two stages...DUH You didn't shoot the second stage either?

Who's the hot blond behind Sessions?

Ferry with parking is a little pricey(everytime ya buy a gun from me ya tell me you're a starving college kid). But as far as convenience that may be the way to go.

Weehawken is better for you Matt. And travel around on the free bus.

Glad to see Harry and Coop(forgot your real name). Had to bug-out early as my wife had been away for a few days.

Well I was 15 years old. Krugs Sporting Goods In Cliffside Park had a gun section in the back while it was primarily a clothing store. At 15 I used to buy BB's at Ernies Sporting Goods and ammo at Boulavard Hardware when I was 18. Just as a little bit of Americana, Headley Lumber in Oak Ridge sells ammo today. I understand these facts are a little off topic. I bought an Ithaca Deerslayer at "Two Guys" for $99 on closeout.

And, If you didn't mess it up too bad GLOCK may refinish it for nothing.

Harry- Based on what you told me about 5 targets I'll go with the G34. Thanks for the offer.

Oh! Wonderful! So there's no capicity concerns!

I'll be there. Don't know anything about it. Hopefully I'll be there a little early to help set-up. If it's like other steel I've been to the mag limit is NJ legal limit so not limited to 10rds. I'm guessing shooting from the ready position NO holster. INPUT PLEASE if I'm wrong about anything. Shooting a G19 for more mag capacity and I expect no more than 50ft. Harry- wear a carnation in your lapel so I know who you are. I'm the unshaven old guy Jeans and hunter camo.

If it is your dad's it's probably worth buying a barrel. Still lots to consider... Original length of the barrel? can it be shortened? where's the bulge?

Totally agree Maks... And the premium price they get for G24's barely make it worth it. The advantage of a G24 over G35 is minimal at best.

Distributors have loads of assembled lowers in stock. This DPMS for example: http://www.jsesurplus.com/dpmsa2lowerreceiver.aspx Due to transfer fees and such, I would find one you want and have your local FFL order one for you. It may cost you a little more but you do want to support your local guy. BTW I know for a fact, because I've owned several, that these DPMS triggers need work. Though they may be fine for some folks.

Dogs are a good thing to alarm you out of a sound sleep. But for fear of hijacking the thread, I feel compelled to mention that if you are a known firearms owner, you just accepted an additional liabilities. #1 You are known to have something a criminal may want, and #2 you need to protect your assets from getting into the hands of those not worthy. I won't make any reccommendations but know your risks.

This is great as long as you're not a sound sleeper or you get your throat cut in your sleep. Do you and your significant other take turns standing watch?

Nice animal. Congrats!!

Nick - Not a valid reason.

Nick- Why?

http://www.midwayusa.com/product/1524129174/browning-mesh-back-shooting-gloves-synthetic-suede These are the ones Kmber uses. There are a couple of pair in the range bag. Her's are all black and they run small. Like I said they are synthetic and feel like mole skin.

He has an incredible amount of stuff in stock just, not on display. Make a wish list before you get there (masterbate guns) and ask him for it when you're there. You'll be amazed. He also lists stuff on Gunbroker so, chech it out. Enjoy!!

Let's talk...What's wrong with the original barrel. You could sink alot of money into an inexpensive gun.

Sorry Maks- I think you're off base. I use a $40 bore sighter and am on the paper at 50yds 100% of the time. I don't like that centering the scope thing because you are making the assumption that the base is on center with the bore which is not always true. I've sighted about 6-8 rifles in the past year and always a bore sighter and shoot @ 50yds. The grid target is good but not 100% necessary as you just need to know how the rings are spaced on a bull. To the OP- If you just bore sight and just go hunting...That is criminal and very unsportsman like. If you need help I'll make the time for you but unless I misunderstood you...Don't just bore sight and go hunting. @ 50yds a 1/4 MOA click only gives you 1/8" POI movement. So to move 2" it would be 16 clicks.

Very Nice Anth- Very persevering of you.
