Just picked up a 9mm Spartan V...my initial thoughts
Oh, nothing wrong with the GSG at all, it's just I am thinking about taking the plunge and getting a STI. I was also if I got a 22LR conversion kit for it the better being it would be the same trigger, weight and feel, minus the recoil and might make for a good OBRAMS and Steel 22LR gun. Heck just cheap practice while in a timed atmosphere, but for the cost of the STI kits I could buy a few GSG's so it may be cost prohibitive. Just an idea I am kicking around but probably will never follow through with when it's all said and done.

First time NJ gun purchaser questions
Whats with the Anonymous buying comment. Who every said anything like that, and are you implying that would be somehow against the law when 2 people are both from the same state and neither prohibited? My comment was guns purchased while living in another state that is free and doesn't have the BS laws we have here. Heck when I was out in AZ I could just walk in and by a gun, guess what, didn't need a FID FPID P2P, a Drivers License was all you needed. If you live in other states and there is a F2F gun buy do they need a COE a P2P or something else, not sure about the rules in all the states but you can have firearm that are not documented in computer systems. Heck a long gun purchased here and you did a F2F and lost your paperwork in lets say while moving. What would you do, not use the gun, not transport it any longer? All I am saying and I am not faulting you at all, I guess it just the way this state treats law abiding gun owners that make some of them this way, but I just can't see going the extra step conforming to a law that does not exist. We need to as a group stop this in general, we have enough BS laws let alone making up new rules, when is enough enough.

SB Commercial Didn't See it
Exactly what I thought also, and I thought WE were in the target area. would really be nice to know the reason it was not aired, would also be great to see them state that they got bombarded with negative responses and decided it wasn't a good idea. Hey I can dream can't I..

I already mentioned this to the Wife, shes game to take a trip down. However I am not sure if I will be able to swing this being I am mostly working the first 15 days of each month and taking the 16 to the end of the month off, Plus it looks like I will be taking the whole month of July off, so my off time might be limited in Aug.

njgf bbq!!
As far as the park idea, I can't remember the name, but up off of RT22 just south of the 287 intersection there is a park that hosts events. It divided to multiple sections so each group can have their own area. The have a building that you can go up to to get food. They can host multiple parties at the same time with some rather large ones, 1000's of people per party are easy for them. It's a pre arranged deal that paid for, and when you pull in you are given a wrist band and a section that the party is in. This could be another option being ideas are still being tossed out. The only reason I mentioned doing it at my pad or someone else's being we have Bryan who also said they were willing is, for a swap meet to have any firearms (Long Guns) for trade or sale, well it would be better at a house than a public location is all I was thinking.

What's a good, cheap reloading press?
I understand but when it come to reloading expect more responses like raz-0's and don't get upset about it. Reloading is not really that hard, but there is a lot to it and just a convo on some forum isn't going to make you load safe ammo. When is the last time you shot a 22LR revolver and had a case split and I'm not talking turning part of your hand a little black, I'm talking scorch your skin. Now look up how different the amount of powder, and actual force compares to something like you are looking to load. F up and your in a world of hurt. raz-0's comment might be a little brash, but for good reason. Go look at some video on youtube and look for blowen up guns and think, that can happen to you.

What's a good, cheap reloading press?
Actually before you do anything, I would pick up the latest editions of the Lyman's, and ABC's or reloading, and also a few others while your at it, read them a few times and then talk about getting equipment, you're getting a bunch of steps ahead of yourself here in this thread.

Name some good things historically about NJ.
We have this: The NJ Driver Turn signals will give away your next move. A real New Jersey driver never uses them. Under no circumstances should you leave a safe distance between you and the car in front of you,or the space will be filled in by somebody else putting you in an even more dangerous situation. Crossing two or more lanes in a single lane-change is considered going with the flow. The faster you drive through a red light, the smaller the chance you have of getting hit. Never, ever come to a complete stop at a stop sign. No one expects it and it will inevitably result in you being rear ended. If you want your insurance company to pay for a new rear bumper, come to a complete stop at all stop signs. A right lane construction closure is just a game to see how many people can cut in line by passing you on the right as you sit in the left lane waiting for the same jerks to squeeze their way back in before hitting the orange construction barrels. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive bodywork. New Jersey is a no-fault insurance state and the other guy doesn't have anything to lose. Braking is to be done as hard and late as possible to ensure that your ABS kicks in, giving a nice, relaxing foot massage as the brake pedal pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it's a chance to stretch your legs. Never pass on the left when you can pass on the right. It's a good way to scare people entering the highway. Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as suggestions and are apparently not enforceable in New Jersey during rush hour. Just because you're in the left lane and have no room to speed up or move over doesn't mean that a New Jersey driver flashing his high beams behind you doesn't think he can go faster in your spot. Please remember that there is no such thing as a shortcut during rush-hour traffic in New Jersey. Always slow down and rubberneck when you see an accident or even someone changing a tire. Learn to swerve abruptly. New Jersey is the home of high-speed slalom driving thanks to the State Highway Department, which puts potholes in key locations to test drivers' reflexes and keep them on their toes. It is traditional in New Jersey to honk your horn at cars that don't move the instant the light changes. Never take a green light at face value. Always look right and left before proceeding. Remember that the goal of every New Jersey driver is to get there first,by whatever means necessary. Real New Jersey women drivers can put on pantyhose and apply eye makeup at seventy-five miles per hour in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Real New Jersey men drivers can remove their girlfriend's panties and bra at seventy-five miles per hour or in bumper-to-bumper traffic. In the New Jersey area 'flipping someone the bird' is considered a polite New Jersey salute. This gesture should always be returned.

Ed Brown Is Rude At Shot Show 2012
The whole thing is we have heard from Maks who I know isn't BS'ing and this guy and his whole video, but I do have to say at the end of the video when he shows Ed and what looks like some random person there looking to get there picture taken with him, he seems more than happy to do that. Maybe Ed should just post up a sign next year saying he will do Pic's but no Video and avoid this type of fiasco.
