Thank you for ur help guys. Last year I went to the range with a friend of mine twice. We shot with a 1911, and a Walther 22 both were single/double action and mostly a subcompact Glock .40 DAO. I dont remember having problems, I guess my hands are average size . Rent the gun before u buy it is a good idea though, thanks. I have a question regarding the single action double action; when I slide the first rd in the chamber, isnt the slide supposed to pull the hammer back and give m a first shot in single action? at least in certain pistols? Im confused because I watched a video in you tube and it looks like the PX4 Beretta is in SA after u slide the first rd, so the DA for the first shot is optional (decocking).

That's good, I was wondering that. Is Paul the guy from Armm N Ammo? Sorry, I'm new here.- USANA LIVES!!!!!!
Hi guys, I've been to USANA only once, last october when it was Habour Site. Any idea about the rates, hours of operation for non members? any phone number or website I can call or check. Thanks, Edward- USANA LIVES!!!!!!
Any news about the date when they are re opening? Edward- Buying my first firearm-NJ 15 rd. mag. capacity.
I think the M9A1 comes with a 15rd. regardless. And with a 10 mag. for Cali, NY etc. The problem is when the specific model you want, for instance M&P 9 Full Size with thumb safety, doesnt come with a 10 mag. option. M9A1 is not a problem, thanks anyway. Either way Arms n Ammo can lock 17 rounders to 15, so that solves the problem (better than getting 10rd. mags). It would be interesting to know if this is common practice. Edward- Buying my first firearm-NJ 15 rd. mag. capacity.
Thank you PK90. I didn't notice u posted a reply. I called u guys earlier and it's good to know you can lock the mags to 15rd. I'm waiting for my permits now, we'll keep in touch. Edward- Buying my first firearm-NJ 15 rd. mag. capacity.
Thank you very much guys! I'm checking Arms n Ammo inventory (PK90). Some of their prices are actually cheaper than Budsgunshop.com. After NJ sales tax it may be just a few bucks more or still cheaper depending on the specific firearm; I assume you don't have to pay any transfer fee when you buy the handgun from Arms n Ammo if u r in NJ. I noticed that Arms n Ammo actually lists the M&P 9 full size with the thumb safety and 17rd. for $467, I'll give them a call to find out what's the deal with the magazines, I guess they keep them. It looks like he has all kinds of interesting stuff for a decent price, very nice! These is the web that I'm looking at, I hope these helps to the guys who are in a similar situation: http://www.davidsonsinc.com/consumers/subsites/dealer_home.asp?dealer_id=745144 It would be nice to get H&K, Sig or a Kimber. But for now I think I can settle for a full size M&P, Beretta PX4 or Beretta M9A1. Edward- Buying my first firearm-NJ 15 rd. mag. capacity.
I live in South Jersey and I'm new to firearms. I'm currently waiting for my FID card. I've been doing a lot of on-line research regarding the pistol I want to get. Unfortunately manufacturers only offer certain models with 10rd. mag. If I decide to get a 9mm. it gets even more difficult since most of them come with magazines over 15rd. For instance; I was interested in the M&P Full size with the thumb safety but it only comes with a 17rd. mag. I understand is not difficult to get a 15rd. mag itself, but I'm talking about getting a new pistol. I've heard good things about budsgunshop.com, I called them to ask them if they could ship a pistol (that comes with a 17rd. mag in the case) without the magazine or with a smaller magazine, and they told me they can't do that. Although I'm not sure if these on-line shops are aware of the NJ mag. limitation, I assume they would ship it to the FFL and then the FFL in NJ would not accept the shipment. Anyway, I was wondering how does it work with the FFL or just with a regular local NJ gun shop? If I go to a local gun shop and I want to buy a gun that the manufacturer only offers with a 17rd. mag, could I get a smaller mag from the gun shop? Do I get any trade in value from the mags I can't keep? Thank you, Edward - Buying my first firearm-NJ 15 rd. mag. capacity.
