Not sure of the #'s, but it's the one directly to the left of the 50 yard range. Thanks for the heads up about that, would of been great if they were for member use. I'll probably wind up buying/making something to shoot at.

I order most my ammo through BULK AMMO or AIMSURPLUS , or who ever else might have the best prices at that time. Most places will require you to fax/email them a copy of your FID card and drivers license before they will ship it. good luck -alec

go beretta man, 9mm is plentyfull Beretta EYE CANDY go beretta! (w/hogue grips )

Dave, I noticed today while at the outdoor range( i think the 25yard pit ) there are a pair of steel knockdown targets off to the left hand side. I never noticed them before today, my brother says they were always there. Are these for public use for all members ? or special event/private use ? If for public use- how the hell do you move these things? they must weigh like 400 pounds These are them: Thanks, Alec

Thanks for the suggestion Dave, I picked up a new GP100 in 4" Barrel last week, very happy with purchase.

Also, think about function, practicality , and use - concerning ammo costs. you might be better with a smaller caliber like 9mm over a .50 average box of 50 for 9mm goes for 11 or 12 bucks. average box of 20 for .50 goes for 30-35 dollars. something to think about.

What is your current gun? I started out with a beretta as my first, a few thousand rounds down range and then I picked up a Ruger gp-100 wheel gun, which I am loving. I feel that if having only 2 pistols, a semi auto ( beretta) and a revolver ( gp100 ) is a nice selection.

Well, I've ordered this safe - When it comes in i'll be sure to do a full review and post plenty of pictures. thanks -alec

My new hero

Thanks dave, i was probably going to make something myself, maybe with some 1/4 plate.

The 7-ll by me sells them too, advertising as a BBQ lighter, I just had to pick me one up. 8 bucks i think

Thanks a bunch Harry. -Alec

I started out with a Beretta ( M9A1 ) I've put probably about 2500 rounds of 9mm down range through it with ZERO issues. No Failures whatsoever. So that's where my vote went. And it also gives me an excuse to post a picture of mine, I ordered some hogue grips for it and got them installed today. ( its alot of different feel, The grip is tons better with the rubber and finger molds, but it does fatten the grip up alot, which isnt to bad for my giant hands, but others may have issues )

Thanks Harry, If you can confirm that'd be great.

Sooooo...... Having a bayonet on = legal. having the option = illegal ? Anyway, This is ludicrous. But i'd still like to know how you go from a traffic stop to searching the trunk of the car. Unless he was doing something else wrong( Drugs? ) and searched the whole vehicle. Or he came out and said , btw i have a rifle in my trunk?

Wait now, bayonets are illegal ?! I've been shooting and transporting my mosin nagant with the bayonet lately .

Im going to try to stop by for a little bit to observe as well ( same deal - probationary member ). I work nights and get out at 7am so I should be able to hang out for a little bit before having to get home to sleep. EDIT: Nevermind, i've got to work a double sunday morning. --- sat11pm - sunday3pm... miserable shift.

I cant seem to find my OBRPC rules book that I got, so maybe someone who has been a member there a while can answer : Are steel targets allowed on the outdoor range? im pretty sure i've heard the pinging sound of bullets on steel while there the other day, but cant be sure. If so, is it limited to the 50/100 range? caliber restriction? etc etc. Thanks.

I did glance over at the S&W revolvers to take a peak, did not handle any - i was sort of dead on interested in the ruger which is what I spent most the time on. How often do you go obrpc? shoot me a PM when your going to be there and i'll see if I can join you. -alec

Thanks, i noticed after i took the pictures and tapped it back in.

Well, took a trip to nj firearms guild this morning and picked me up the Ruger GP-100, stainless - with a 4" barrel. I held both the 4 and the 6" barrels, the 6 was a nice gun, but overall i felt the 4" felt better in my hand, and would fit in my nightstand safe ( the 6" barrel would not ) Im very happy with my purchase, the trigger on this gun is amazing, very smooth and crisp, the double action is worlds better then that on my beretta. While I was there I also wound up leaving with a new Ruger 10/22 with stainless barrel, I couldnt help myself. Im happy , Wallets empty! I will say the the gun is dirty though, I could hardly believe the grime im cleaning off this now, it doesnt seem to want to come off! dont know if it was the ammo, or just revolvers shoot dirtier then a semi-auto. I was using federal 38 special, and CCI blazer 357 Fired off about 100 rounds of 38 special, 50 rounds of .357mag and about 150 rounds of .22 Good day. with the rest of my junk.

LoL, best RugerGp-100 Range video ever on youtube.

Gotcha, I'll have to check out length specs of the 6" gun. I just measured my "gunvault" bedside safe and it's 11" deep, 7" wide. So i may be limited to 4" depending on how long the 6" barrel is total.

I'll stop buy NJ firearms guild and rahway, and check the 4" and 6"..... I think i'll be leaning toward the 4", i just find it more ascetically pleasing. The 6" sort of looks more novelty in the pictures i've seen. But all that might change once i have one in hand.
