If you don't have one, i would say get a wheel gun. I just got my first revolver a few months ago and wow, what fun that thing is to shoot. I had no idea what I was missing. Give it a try, I got the S&W 686 Plus 4" = 7 shot .357 magnum.

All PX4's do have removable front sights. There are options for sights, i just don't know which ones. I did however just come across Trijiicon night sights for the PX4. A Type F Beretta PX4 can NOT be converted to DAO. A Type F can be converted to type G (Decocker Only, No Manual Safety). That being said there is a Type D and A Type C Beretta PX4. Type D = No Safety, No Decocker, DAO trigger, restrike capable Type C = No SAfety, No Decocker, Constant Action trigger =it's a half cocked trigger, almost a SAO trigger, no restrike capability . Unfortunately the Compact model is not available in Type D or C as of yet. But the Full SIze PX4 can be found in Type D and Type C on Gunbroker. Stainless or "Inox" models are not available in Type D or Type C. As a matter of fact I remember just seeing a Full Size PX4 Type C on Budsgunshop.com with 10rd mags (15rd mags also available from Beretta) at a good price. WHen you search for Type C, search = Beretta Constant. PX4's are plastic framed guns. Stoeger Cougar is the all metal version of the PX4. Beretta made Cougar originally, then sold the machining and rights to Stoeger. They are essentially still Beretta's. I am not sure about the the newer Stoegers, but Beretta did make Type D (DAO) cougars in full size and mini's in 9mm, 40, and 45. You can find them on GB.

Welcome. Fellow Morris County here. A new range just opened up in our neighborhood. RTSP on RT10 in Randolph. Indoor pistol and rifle. Been there a few times. Pretty good place and close.

What I have owned, shot, and sold. Beretta 92 Vertec (sold) Bereta 92 Compact (sold) Beretta 92 (sold) Beretta 96 Inox (sold) Beretta PX4 40 Full Size Type G (for sale soon) Beretta PX4 SubCompact 9mm type G (sold) Glock 21 Gen 3 (selling) Glock 21 Gen 4 Glock 23 Gen 4 Glock 19 Gen 4 Glock 27 Gen 3 (sold) S&W 686 Plus S&W 642-2 S&W M&P40 (sold) S&W M&P40C Colt 1911 Defender (sold) Kimber 1911 (sold) SIgs & HK = never could bring myself to pay a $200-$400 premium for guns that do nothing better. Also, I am no longer a fan of DA/SA triggers. XD's = if I want a grip safety ill just buy another 1911. And they are ugly. CZ = Again, no longer a fan of DA/SA Baby Eagle/Desert Eagle = dont know anything about them, except I can get a autoloading 44mag. Do you hate everything Glock?

But we are talking about going from 40 to 45 in Poly frame pistols (Glock 22 to M&P 45). I don't think any department will be outfitting personnel with steel frame 1911's anytime soon. I really can't see a M&P 45 having less recoil than a Glock 21. The Glock 21 has a larger and heavier slide. Not to mention I have the Gen 4 with the new dual recoil setup. You must just like the ergos better. The Baby Eagle, sure, it is a big heavy steel gun, correct? BTW, I enjoy shooting box after box through the 23 and 21 and 19.

Decieving statistic. It's not like you see empty houses all over the State. Somebody is moving in too.

So if you pass away, and you leave your guns to family, what happens to the firearms from the time you pass to the time said member gets all the proper paper work and permits to take possesion of them?

I thought they were conned into Glocks, not actually .40s&w?

The interesting thing about .45 vs .40, is that there is not much a difference in recoil. Everyone preaches how the .45 is a sweet shooter or it pushes instead of snaps. I say BS, I shoot a Glock 21 along side a Glock 23 all the time and feel the recoil or kick is about the same. Are the ballistics of a 45 better than the 40?, all depends how you look at it, but they are pretty close. Personally, in a duty weapon id rather have 15rds of 40 than 10rds of 45 anyday. The military will not be replacing the 9mm anytime soon. That rumor has been around a long time. Just the cost alone to replace all those Beretta M9's will prohibit that from happening.

Get a Glock 23 Gen4. Best all around size to weight to capacity to reliability to function to simplicity to trigger available. Don't worry about the 40s&w being "to snappy" , you will get used to it. I swear, when it comes to 40s&w everyone seems to turn into a sissy wrist. .357 magnum revolver, now that's recoil, or a airweight J frame 38 special, that makes 40s&w seem like a cream puff. Don't let the 40s&w naysayers scare you. There is good reason why 80% of LE agencies use 40s&w.

I hear Growth Harmones are the true fountain of youth. Where do I sign up for testing?

Soon as I heard this report, I thought this would make a great case for HR822 to be passed. A normal law abiding WOMAN that chooses to exercise her right to defend herself againts the evil people of the US with a firearm. Which is completely legal and accepted where she comes from. She probably lived in TN her whole life and dosent know any other way of life. Especially of the repressive NJ and NY laws. She probably assumes the constitution applies to all the US as it should. I think its a going to be a win for the pro gun community. On another note, why would there be a " no guns allowed" sign in NYC? Isn't that a givin?

I second the DPMS. DPMS LR-308 24" SS Bull Barrel Ziess Conquest 4.5-14x Z-1000 Reticle Scope Burris RIngs Harris Bipod Flawless, Accurate, Good for 1000yds

I got a short haired mut from the pound in Newark. Best dog I ever had, great with my kids. I had to rid him of the habit of using the gangsta sights on his Glocks, but after that he was fine. Highly recommend going to the pound and rescuing. There is a pound in Newark and one in Hasbrouck Heights just off rt17.

It would really suck if you shoot a water pipe.

Idk. I don't own a G17 for the fact that there are no 15 rd mags. I don't see much of a benefit since I own a G19 and I am as accurate as can be with it. I don't think the extra barrel length and sight radius would make me anymore accurate. And to alter a fine weapon like that would be a mistake, in the fact that you would never be able to sell it. Can't you put a G17 slide and barrel on a G19 Frame?

I find it interesting that everyone says find the one that's most comfortable in your hand. I have to disagree. I find that the Beretta PX4 to feel more comfortable in my hand, but I still shoot Glock better. The best advice would be to shoot the different models, not just go by feel.

I got the 7 shot 686. It is just awesome. The guy at the gun shop tried to convince me to get the 6 shot because he had one, but I went the 7. He did say the S&W rep mentioned they put over 20,000 rds through it for testing, but I can't confinem that. I did however want the extra round and HKS makes a 7 shot speedloader for it. I did not consider competitions when I bought this model, just range and HD.

Easy choice. Glock 22 Gen4.

I just had my Gen4 ejectors updated by old school. First class work. It's also a nice shop with good prices. And no, my Gen4 were not having any issues. I just opted for the updates because they were available.

I'm still for profiling

Pickup trucks should require justifieable need.

Personally, Im for it. I am also a big fan of profiling. There, I said it.

It does seem like that, doesn' t it? Funny thing, I spend most of my time working in and around NYC, and I never get that feeling from the NYPD personnel. Maybe its because of their training or something, but they are on totally different level, completeley void of that NJ Arrogance. They really seem to be there to helpp you.

I find it disturbing how the "AG" can just go ahead and make up any rules it wants and goes unchecked by the judiciary branch. And then enforce them to boot. Then citizens have to spend years and tons of money fighting something that should have never been able to be happen in the first place. What ever happened to the " system of checks and balances".
