Im glad this got bumped, M4BGRINGO, if your interested in joining this Sunday may 8th is application day @ 9am. I'll be there to apply. If your serious about it might as well come too since they only accept applications on the 2nd Sunday of every month, .. So if you miss it you'll have to wait another month. -alec PS: From an inquiry email from OBRPC:

I do understand the logic, I guess it's sort of a " probationary period " , but it still sucks having to shoot alone for 6 months. I'll probably wind up joining regardless since it's so close to me. Thanks again.

Thanks for the guest offers guys, i'll see what I can work out. As far as the 6 month period without bringing a guest is really really turning me off, I usually always bring a friend or my girlfriend when I go... Who likes shooting alone? It's sort of absurd to think I cant go shooting with anybody till November, the whole damn summer gone by. Grrrrrrrrr...

I decided I want to check this place out, as it's only about 20 minutes from my house. How does their guest policy work exactly? I typically bring a buddy or my girlfriend when I go to the range, do they need a membership if they come more then " x " amount of times? Also, I realize I have to wait till the 2nd sunday of the month, which looks like may 8th, for the orientation--- But how does this whole process work? Can I shoot the same day? or is their some type of waiting period? and if anybody is a member there that wouldn't mind taking me in as a guest i'd appretiate it very much, I'd at least like to check the facilities out before committing. thanks alec

just inspected my 92a1, did not see any hint of any scraping by the take down lever. I've had my 92a1 apart prob. 15-20 times now as reference.

Filled up my residential oil tank yesterday, 3.79 gallon x 225 gallons = $853 dollars! Filling up my ram 1500 is prob. over 100 dollars too, 33 gallon tank. Though, forwhatever reason the pumps always click off at $75 dollars, i guess it's something with my card having a max on gas?

Thanks, i'm pretty familar with every other aspect of the build, i've worked as a carpenter and my pops is an electrictian. so i've picked up on alot over the years.

I've been finishing my basement, gutted completely, installing a new french drain system ( drain tile ) and new sump pit. I'll be adding a bathroom, shower, sink and laundry drainage. The bathroom will be pretty much over the main drain pipe under the slab, and the laundry might be something like 15 feet or so away. I've currently got a cast iron stand pipe, which i'd like to update to PVC while im at it. So basically im looking for somebody ( must be extremely knowledgeable on plumbing, if not a pro ) to ' guide ' me along. I'll be doing all the work myself. All the digging, excavating, running the pipe. Just need to consult somebody who knows more then me as far as what's acceptable connections, if vent stacks need to be added, traps, etc etc etc. I'll be pulling a permit for adding the bathroom, so must be up to code. I'll pay you for your time, as a consultant, as long as the fee is reasonable. Location Woodbridge NJ Anybody interested?

Good for him, but.... how does somebody who has zero experience with hand guns or rifles qualify for a show like top shot? isnt the point of the show to gather the best of the best of the best to compete in all aspects of the firearm world?

uhh, spam ?

The object stays more center with my left eye, with my right eye open the object shifts farther away...this makes me left eye dominant? Also, with both eyes open i have a terrible time trying to adjust, it gives me bad double vision and i really cant fixate on anything.

I am right handed, but i must be semi tarted cause I cant for the life of me close my left eye by itself. Which is a problem for me shooting rifles, it's much easier for me to look down the sights off a rifle using my left eye, left shoulder. Is this common practice for people with my issue? Or am I asking for a world of hurt with mods and accessories to accommodate shooting lefty

Yah, like said - 1000 rounds isnt that cumbersome of a storage dillema, just got my shipment of 1000 rounds of PMC bronze 9mm, shipping sticker says it weights 28 pounds.

World Class Steel in Edison, NJ Paid $46.10 out the door for both NICS and Transfer.

6 weeks to the day in woodbridge for me

Im interested in joining the old bridge shooting range, it's close to my house and is open 24/7 ( i hear central nj range in jackson is better, but im not sure i want to make such a long haul yet ) But anywho, is anybody a member there? How do like it? Do you feel there is ussually enough ports to meet demand? Any strange restrictions? I'd like to be able to check out the tour before having to wait to the 2nd sunday of the month to apply and pay. I've heard that they do not have automatic target reels for the indoor range, i've also confirmed this on my brochure somebody gave me. How does this typically work? Anytime somebody wants to change targets out the entire firing line has to stop ? It also seems their guest policy is weird, for the first 6 months you cannot bring a guest, and after that 6 months you can only bring that guest a max of 3 times per year? Any other comments on them would be great too. Thanks! Alec

Thanks, decided to go with the PMC Bronze 9mm ( 1000 rounds ) With shipping it came to $223

Looking to stock up on some 9mm for my beretta, looking for reccomendations for the best ' bang for your buck ' 9mm case wise. maybe 1000 rounds. Any deals out there on the interweb land you guys revert to when ordering bulk ammo ? thanks! -alec

Yeh, The M9a1 also comes sans " READ OWNERS MANUAL BEFORE FIRING " printed all over the gun.

Thanks, I heavily considered the 92a1 , but i just could not get over the rounded trigger gaurd, it just didnt look right to me.

No real point to the thread other than some eye candy. Beretta m9a1, this is my first firearm, i've spent some time at my desk getting familar with the weapon, reading the manual, practice feild strip. Have yet to fire it, just came in last night. -- The range in old bridge interests me alot since they are open 24/7 ( I work midnights and sleep all day long, so this sounds perfect for me, and only about 25 minutes from my house ) BUT, they only take membership applications on the 2nd sunday of the month ) Maybe i'll make my way down to the bullet hole this weekend. Thanks! -Alec

Welcome! I'm new here too , but there is alot of good information to be found here. Im in Woodbridge too, Where abouts? Im sort of behind the woodbridge deli off rt35.

As a firearm noob, i've got some simple questions about maintenance , storing, and transporting handgun magazines. Is it poor practice to store magazines fully loaded? ( 15 rd ) Do you need to lubricate your magazines? Is it illegal in NJ to transport a loaded magazine ? ( Gun and ammo/mags in separate lock box while transporting correct? ) and lastly, could anybody recommend me a speed loaded for a 9mm ? Anybody own the HKS one? Thanks -Alec
