    I occassionally shoot trap for fun and want to get a decent SxS. I like SxS primarily for the looks I don't think I'm gonna get too serious collecting anything. What's a better caliber? 12 or 20 for trap? Is the CZ Ringneck Custom grade worth the close to $2k asking price? They make it in 20ga 28" barrel. What would be the ideal barrel length for trap shooting? Thanks!
  2. Welcome to the forum.
  3. Personally I'd avoid Essex county due to the crazy property tax there. All towns there have to feed Newark. Cedar Grove is actually relatively low for Essex county though. Avoid Wayne also because it's a flood plain.
  4. PB. I'm still new to SW revolvers. Do you mind sharing how you can tell this is a no-dash by just looking at the pic? I got a 586 no-dash recently without the "M" stamp. It's in prestine condition so in your opinion is it a good idea to send it to the factory to have the recall work done? thanks!
  5. Nice find! Love 4" wheel guns myself.
  6. I got 2 of these from DVOR as well. What a sweet deal. I put them on my 229 and shot about 150 rounds of 357 Sig. The fireball that round produces left the lens on the light with black soot. How do you guys clean that off the lens without scratching it? Is the TLR-4 water resistant?
  7. Has it been really difficult to get a hold of NICS the Saturday after Good Friday in the past? thanks!
  8. Why did you say it's a sniper? Were you told it was? It's definitely not a turret mount or claw mount because there are no visible taps on the receiver. What is the manufacturers code on the receiver? Only a few codes were made into snipers. Look at the left side of the receiver from the inside. LSR and SSR should have holes or signs of holes tapped on the side simular to the Mosin PU snipers. If those are also missing then this was never a sniper. Either way, once it was bubba'ed it's really not worth anything.
  9. Since Friday is a holiday, I was wondering if I can pick up a handgun from a dealer this Sat. thanks!
  10. Looks like the newest model with teh long extractor has a bunch of issues (apparently not from the extractor itself) Perfect example of not to mess with something that works! Sig US is really messing up the reputation the company built over the years and care too much about bling bling. http://sigforum.com/...35/m/8240008082 That's why I stick to older German made carbon slide Sigs.
  11. Yes gas price is a big concern but there's nothing like driving cross country. You have the freedom of stopping at any place you want and you get to see and experience a lot of places. I once drove from NJ all the way to Acapulco, Mexico with 2 of my buddies when I was in college. It was pretty stupid of us considering how shady some places were in Mexico but it was quite an experience. Cops were constantly pulling us over demanding money and we even had soldiers pointing rifles at us at check points LOL..
  12. 6940 is LE model. 6700mt and 6400c use larger pins. Yup. Geissele does make the large pin versions, but IFAIK not all their models. Also like you said it's more expensive. In general there are less options out there for Colt large pin receivers.
  13. BTW. RRA NM Lower receiver comes with their 2 stage match trigger. Which is pretty slick already right out of box. I got a Geissele Service Trigger which is even better.
  14. It'll feel like any other 20" NM AR15. It's not really "match target" if that's what you are after. Civilian Colt comes with oversized FCG pins so getting aftermarket triggers will be harder and more expensive. Don't get me wrong, IMO Colt makes one of the highest quality AR. But if you are planning on competing, you are better off getting a White Oak Armanment NM upper on top of a quality lower receiver such as RRA. You have more options with triggers and the upper will be more accurate.
  15. IMO. The best conversion kits are: * CZ Kadet. You get slide lock up after last round, and it'll be more or less the same weight/balance as the center fire version. * Nighthawk Custom 1911 Conversion kit. - This one is basically the same as the Bob Marvel kit. It is designed by Marvel. Again, more or less the same weight and slide lock up. Most others will be lighter than the center fire slide and the balance/weight will be very different once mounted. They also don't have slide lock up after last round.
  16. That recall is to replace the bushing where the hammer/firing pin goes through. Original was too large and higher pressure loadings would blast part of the primer into the opening and lock up the gun. You'll have to send it back to Smith to get it unlocked. I think with the recall work they replaced the bushing with one with smaller hole. It's not really not a a problem until you shoot really hot loads.

    A lot of makers put old firearms back in production. Most of them are not made the same way they were. New SW revolvers are not made the same way as the old. They added lock and use cheaper parts. Sig 210 Legend is nothing like the original Sig 210. Newer P series Sigs are not as well made as the older German ones. They did a rerun of the 225 last year and even though they were made in Germany they are still inferior to the original ones in quality. SW PPK is crap compared to the older ones. I think there are tons of examples like this. Looking at the quality of current production Colt 1911, even if they were to make the Python again. It will not the the same quality. Considering these are put together by hand by their Custom Shop, it will not be cheap if they start production again. $1500 to $2000 is not a great price for the original Python but I think it's fair.
  18. Nice photo and write up. Question. I have a HK45 LEM on the way. Is the trigger return spring the only thing different between the normal LEM and light LEM? thanks!
  19. My vote is for G20. But I'd wait for the Gen4 to come out for less recoil and better grips. Or you can get the G21 Gen 4 and get a G20 Gen4 slide when it comes out.
  20. You each need a permit to do the transfer.
  21. As a whole, it's a firearm and the serial on the frame is the serial of the entire firearm. As parts, only the frame is considered a firearm. You can buy barrels/slides online and have them shipped directly to you.
  22. You are right. Got my emails mixed up. The first 2 should work. I just used the 10off one today.
  23. Here are some coupon codes you can use as well 10off for $10 off first10 $10 off first purchase B19E7EC $30 off purchases $300 or more. Expires 3/24.
  24. Yes you can find out someone's address from this site. But you'll have to know about this site which is not readily available for someone who does not know about it. By posting the sale and the buyer/seller's name on a site it was able to be picked up by search engines like google. So someone who knows my name and my wife's name can just google our names and it just shows up. with regard to whitepages.com. You can remove yourself from it, the link is right on the bottom. I've done that a long time ago. They had a really old address of mine there so it wasn't really doing me any harm. I do not even show up on pipl.com. I know I can't avoid having public information accessed by others, but posting all sales with the owner's name and address on a site is a bit too much I think.
