  1. The little 3 inch shoot n see stick on targets are good. If you start to do any high volume shooting an uplula mag loader and a bag for your brass are worth while investments. I have a couple of air heads, and some gatorade powder in my bag because shooting in the summer and getting woosey from dehydration / low blood sugar is a bi***.
  2. I agree. The Cx4 is a great compliment to the matching pistol due to ammo, and magazine interchangeability. As a standalone rifle, its niche is inside 200 yards, where the 5.56 loading is still realistically effective at almost twice that range. Its a great range and gun game toy, but the pistol calibers just run out of gas too soon for it to be considered a true conventional rifle.
  3. Call Sayreville sportsman, I thought I saw one there the last time I was in.
  4. For the sake of argument, use the speer gold dot as an ammo constant all out of a 16 inch barrel. 9mm- 1379 fps 40sw-1143 fps 45acp-990 fps the lighter ammo will move a little faster than the heavier and not drop as quickly. High pressure pistol cartridges benefit more from the longer barrels of carbines, compared to low pressure.
  5. What do you want to do with the rifle. If you are looking to do something purpose specific, where you have limited, or no good off the rack options, then by all means build. For instance, if you are looking to make a true multi-gun rifle upper and dont want to play JP prices, building is the best option. If you were to try and build a multi gun rifle from an off the shelf upper, by the time you change out the barrel, handguards/float tube, and bolt carrier group, it becomes cost prohibitive. If you are just looking for a good all around upper for range use, there are a few very good manufacturers.
  6. So do I. Its a great cleaning kit, albeit a little expensive. I think its worth it though.
  7. Ive handled one a couple of times at Atlantic, and was impressed with the way it fit, the trigger, and the finish. The only thing that really turned me off was the semi complicated takedown.
  8. Looks good, and nice to see another PX4 kicking around, they are popular here. I have a couple friends interested in the inox version.
  9. You very much have to worry about humidity and condensation, as it will ruin your powder. If you can keep your powder, primers, and sensitive components inside you will be in much better shape. Then all you will have to worry about is the climatic effects on the press itself.
  10. its not hot pink but its probably close enough, the Ruger LCP comes in Raspberry, The sig mosquito comes in pink, the smith and wesson M&P series can be found with pink back straps if you look hard enough.
  11. I could take it or leave it. I have been pricing out a star from MGM and just cant justify the price yet, but come on, who wouldn't want their own personal star.
  12. 2500 centerfire, between the difference calibers, shooting 3 or 4 times a week. Probably another 1000 or 1500 in rimfire. Reloading is the only way to go.
  13. You know I was thinking about this for a bit after I posted but came to a different conclusion. If she does in fact decide she is most comfortable with a 22, that 22 is a whole lot better than nothing at all, or another weapon she doesn't feel comfortable with.
  14. Your best bet is to go to a range like Shore shot in Lakewood or RTSP in north jersey and rent a few guns. The way a gun fits in your hand is going to have alot to do with what you decide to purchase. If you end up not beng able to find what you are looking at as a rental, just make it known here and im sure someone will offer to let you shoot theirs. Welcome to the forum.
  15. If I get my RO cert in a timely fashion, and I can still get in to help, im going to go down.
  16. I usually push the barrel away, if it happens again I will say thats poor gun handling.

    I have experience with both savage and remington. I feel that you get a little more gun for the money with the savage, and the accutrigger is one of the best on the market. But with that said the 700 is a great rifle as well
  18. And that makes you the kind of person I like to deal with. The other people make me twitch a little

    If you don't mind my asking why are you hard set on the rem 700
  20. I can say from selling firearms, getting flagged by customers is my biggest pet peeve. I know that I checked to make sure its empty, and I know you aren't going to pull the trigger, but it still bothers the hell out of me when I'm looking down the barrel of a gun
  21. officer involved shooting on remsen ave in new brunswick tonight. Screwed things up in the city pretty well.
  22. Thats where I thought it was. Ill check in tomorrow and see what the deal is. Its a shame, the only thing that manages to stay in that shopping center is the bagel place.
  23. Im off tomorrow during the day so im going to seriously poke around and see if I can find it. Judging by the address im pretty sure I know where it is, and Ill report back later.
