I don't have the upper yet but it seems like unless I get something completely NY ban friendly whatever I order will be coming with a bayonet lug attached. I am assuming the process is self explanatory but I was just wondering how you all go about refinishing the exposed steel afterwards, I am aware that you could just blue it but has anyone stumbled across anything more durable than cold bluing?

LOL I have looked at the Smith and the 686 plus is a nice gun, but given the price difference and the internal lock on the smiths I tend to lean towards Ruger. Oh and for some odd reason I really like how simple it is to change out the front sight on the GP100 (I enjoy tinkering with my toys lol).

The sp is avdurable platform as well and i figured for hunting it may be better to have less weight to drag around. I think I am leaning toward the GP myself just because of the extra round.

so I'm looking at getting a 357 Magnum with my next permit. I just grabbed my sr1911 today so I have 30 days to think it over. I keep bouncing back and forth between the gp100 4 inch or the sp101 4.2 inch. I have the 22 version of the sp and i love the look and feel of it but then again the extra weight and capacity as well as the ease of swapping out front sights on the gp is a plus. My main uses would be for the range and HD with a possibility of hunting with in the future. C'mon guys weigh in with your thoughts.

Double post

Cafe? Im sold lol.

Awesome, I look forward to visiting you guys on Sunday.

So as part of my birthday my wife and I were going to take a trip to the range and shoot some of our toys. My little sister who is 18 and her bf who is 22 were going to tag along for their first time. We planned on going to Heritage Guild but their policy says nobody under 21 can shoot a handgun. Now we are stuck trying to find a place that my sister can shoot more than just my 10/22. I am trying to find a place other than shoreshot to go to and try out that has rentals. Any suggestions??

Well I finally got the letter in the mail saying my permit are ready.

Not exactly, I will have reached a point where my current inventory of handguns will be enough that I don't really have a need to buy more. The only possible situation that I would need another handgun for is if I were to obtain my carry permit and I don't plan on doing that for some time anyway. Now I will simply turn my attention to increasing my inventory of long guns, they haven't really prevented me from obtaining more firearms but just from going through the nonsensical process of applying for permits.

STILL WAITING in Edison, going on 7 months now. i called and got the bs run around. I was told that one of my references never replied (luckily I applied for another round already and I was asked why I put in for more permits. I said "because I want more permits" and was told "you should have let us know you had an application in already, it confused us" … friggin 7 months and counting … Hate to say it but I'm done after this last round no more permit BS as long as i stay living here in Edison.

Don't overlook the Sr1911 you could spend much much more and still not have a better gun. It's imo one of the very best bargains you can get on the current market. I say save the extra money and put it towards ammo and mags.

Meh ... 1911's are too pretty to cover in plastic

Variety is key, if you want to stay with one ammo type then go for a sp101 or a smith revolver for your second purchase. If you really want my advice I would urge you towards buying a 1911, then you would have one wheelgun and one 1911/semi and two amazing platforms.

Been waiting 6 months as of yesterday 2/22 and that is only for a single P2P. I have since then put in application for additional permits .. expecting those to get held up until July-August. I live in Edison and the cops here are infamous for disregarding the law so its not like I expected them to give a rats ass about the 30 day requirement. As far as the required forms, just the background check the consent to a mental health background check and the your usual personal info and references.

Cool! I am "in the system" and even updated my personal info so I am guessing I should be okie dokie, thanks!

So i might be in the market for a new shotgun and I am on a budget plus I have always used pumps. My initial thoughts were to go get another Benelli Supernova since that is what i used to use. I can't lie though, the new winchester SXP black shadow has caught my eye and looks to be a pretty close competitor (minus the comfort tech stock). Has anyone handled one who can possibly point me one way or the other?

My birthday is approaching in March and my father has reached out to me and told me that he plans on taking me to a stocked pheasant hunt in glassboro. The problem is that I don't have a gun or a license as I had to sell my long guns back in 09 because we needed to find more space and the safe was just too big. Anyways, I now have a different situation and could potentially buy another shotgun and go on this hunt however I haven't had a valid hunting permit since 09 and while I do have that license in my possession I do not know where my hunters safety course card went. Does anyone know if I would be able to obtain a new license just by bringing the old one from '09 with me to a place like Dicks? I want to make sure I can get my license before I rush out to buy a shotgun before my birthday.

The sp101 4 inch in 357 is a nice little wheel gun. What about the PPQ? Cant go wrong with a 1911 either.

Well I'm starting to really get frustrated with Edison now because the last permit took 6 months and I've already been waiting about 5 for this one. I'm putting in another application tomorrow for a future purchase I've already decided to make. Too bad I probably won't see that permit till sometime in July. Because of the amount of time the process makes this last application will likely be the last PP I apply for until I move somewhere more free.

So I want to start tinkering with my christmas present (10/22 takedown) and I decided to start with the optics/sights. I want the opportunity to mount a scope for longer distance shooting but still have the option of using the iron sights for short to medium distances. So after some research I figured I have two options the see through weaver rail and the see through scope mount rings, as of now I am leaning towards the rings as the rail just looks ugly to me. Does anyone have any insight they would like to share with me? I doubt Im the first on njgf that has been down this road.

I like it but I have yet to own a remington yet so ill wait for other people to test it out first.

Thats awesome my daughters would love something like this. I spent all friggin christmas assembling this POS plastic kitchen for my youngest ..your daughter made out well.

My wife got me a 10/22 takedown … love that woman!
