Range 14
They are going to be charging $1.00 for 6 of them. I don't think that is too bad!

Kel-Tec KSG
I saw an auction on Buds and the Keltec was at $1240.00 and that was with a couple of hours to go. Iam not sure what it finally sold for!!! That's crazy when the msrp is $880.00!!!! I guess whatever the market will bear is what it's worth. I will be waiting until they come way down!!

My "Getting out of NJ" countdown!
If I could have moved out of Jersey I would of done so many years ago.I think that anyone who has a chance to move for this god forsaken state should do so ASAP!! As soon as my kids get out of school I am gone. I think I will have everything packed at my kids graduation and right when it's over we all go to the car and leave and never look back. I think if I got a job in any other state besides NY,MA.CA and maybe a few others I would leave now if it wouldn't make my youngest go nuts. I can't see how kids wanting to get out of the house and rent a place can make it in this state.

Smith & Wesson 617 optic question
I have another week or so until my OGAM crap is up!! I have a S&W 617 waiting for the time to be up. I am thinking about putting a red-dot on it but I can't get over the looks of the gun with the red-dot on it. I just don't like it!! The issue I have is my eyes just aren't what they used to be. I want this gun for steel and for OBRAMS. My questions are has anyone put a red-dot on a 4 inch barreled 617? and if so what model and your thoughts on the gun with the red-dot on it. So please if anyone has one with a red-dot on it can you post some pics? Any pics with a revolver with a red-dot would be appreciated

Sig 1911
I have a Sig Traditional match elite two-tone. I love it, it is my first 1911 so I don't have much to compare it two. I have a few other guns but now that I have the 1911 I am hooked on the design everything just lines up great for my hands. I am now looking for a 1911 in 9mm or if I can get one at a good price another in 45. I don't think I will be buying anything other than 1911 style guns for awhile!! So be prepared to open up a huge can of worms if you get one as I see many more in the future!! Good luck in your choice I don't think you can go wrong with anyone you choose!!

Fisher Cats in NWNJ?
I heard a sound one morning that scared my daughter awake. I went in to her room to listen to it and it gave me the chills. It must of been something out in the woods dying. I think it was a fox that I heard. Check this link and see if this is something like you heard. The morning we heard this it went on for 20 mins. very eerie!!! http://www.angelfire.com/ar2/thefoxden/kitcry.wav

FN or Beretta
I have an FNP9 and it shoots great. When I bought it I compared it to the Px4 full size and I chose the FNH. I never shot the Beretta until recently and it just reinforced that I made the right decision. It's difficult to explain the difference but the FN just felt better in my hand and in my opinion I shot it better with it. I have heard nothing but great things about the FNS!!

New reloader needs what?
I am thinking about getting into reloading. I am getting sick of buying ammo paying the high prices and crazy shipping costs and then waiting for days or weeks to get the stuff!! My questions are as follows. I would only go with a progressive I think, I don't know that much about this but to me it seems like the best way to go. I would like to buy this once and I am sure just like guns there is always a nicer one for just a $100 more. I will be shooting in the area of 1k or more monthly of 45 and at least that amount of 9mm. I would love to hear anyone's opinions and suggestions. 1. The initial outlay for hardware (press.dies and any other gotcha items)? 2. What brands do most people use? There seem to be quite a few out there. 3. Any idea how many 45ACP rounds it would take to actually break even? 4. I think it's best to start with 45 as 9mm is cheaper to buy new, am I correct 5. How is the process of changing the parts out to go from caliber to caliber or pistol to rifle? 6. How long does it usually take to finish 1k rounds (just a guess)? 7. What brand of press and misc. parts do you recommend? 8. What are the best types or brands of powders, primers and bullets? I probably left out a few things that I need to know but don't know enough to ask about!! So if you have anything that you think I need to know let me know. Thanks in advance for sharing the knowledge!!

Target Sports by any other name - Need Help
I have ordered from TargetSportsUSA.com 5 or 6 times in the last few months. I haven't had a single problem with them. On another note if your still need ammo try Buds. I just ordered Federal 115gr. 9mm for 9.88 a box. I don't shoot 40cal but their prices on 9mm and 45acp were the best I could find.. Good Luck!!

Anyone shoot OBRAMS?
I never knew this was offered. I shoot USPSA and Steel mostly at CJ but rimfire action shooting. I am in for this! So much fun and cheap ammo what could be better. Looking forward to shooting OBRAMS.

Jacksonites--P2P time lately?
I still haven't received the p2p and no FID card for my son. They went in on Dec 2nd and the weekly answer from the clerk in Jackson is "hold please" , I don't see them I will have to check upstairs on the officers desk" a minute or two goes by and then she picks up the phone and says " Your permits are on the officers desk for him to go over" I say I have been calling for the last 3 weeks and you have said the same thing each and every time!!! "She says I don't know how long it will take him to get them done there are hundreds there" This is now the 83rd day. I was initially told 6-8 weeks maybe a little longer. Well this is just total crap. I have a 1911 waiting at my LGS all paid and just waiting to be shot!!! This drives me crazy!!

What bullets for 9mm and 45acp
I used 147 gr bullets today and had nothing but problems with my CZ-75. The slide would lock in battery and I had to play with it and really force it to rack. I could pull the trigger and nothing happened. Some other times it wouldn't go into battery and it would still be hard to rack the slide. I thought it was the mags but after ruling them out and everything else. I was talking to another shooter and he said he had seen that sometimes the higher grain bullets would be a little longer and wouldn't seat correctly into the barrel. When he showed me what he meant by pulling the barrel out and putting a bullet into it, the 147gr. round seated tighter in it and kinda stuck. The 124 gr. and 115 gr and even the ASYM 147gr. rounds seated nicely and came out without any resistance. So after changing to 124gr. or 115gr bullets all went well. I tried to explain this as good as possible so I hope anyone who reads this understands what happened. It seemed that all 147gr. with round nose had this problems. Anyone else ever see this? These were all factory rounds not reloads.

What bullets for 9mm and 45acp
I am wondering what everyone uses for guns games? I am mostly thinking about 9mm and 45acp as that is mainly what I shoot. I have recently purchased some 9mm 147 gr. FMJ rounds but I havent shot them yet. I have mainly shot 115 gr. FMJ but after doing some research a lot of people are saying the heavier the bullet the more accurate. I am fairly new to 45 acp and there doesn't seem to be as much choice in bullet weight. It seems as though 230 gr. is the main bullet that most manufacturers use. SO let me know what you sue for Steel, USPSA and any other gun game!!

New 9mm not sure
I have a FNP-9 and I love it. It is highly accurate. You cannot go wrong with this pistol. I have had no problems finding a holster for the FNP, I have a Blade-Tech for it and have used it for USPSA. I use my CZ-75 mostly for gaming so the FNP is pretty much a range gun now. FNH has come out with the striker fired model and as far as what I have read everyone seems to like it. I will be looking for one when the permits come thru. I don't have any first hand knowledge with the FNX but everything I have read has been positive.

Which 1911 9mm in the $650 range?
I just checked the Ruger site and I don't think they make the SR 1911 in 9mm at least it's not on their site!! So that will help you eliminate that one. I think the STI would be the way to go. You may also want to look at the Taurus, I know some people will say they have problems, but so far everything I have read about them they are working very good. The Taurus also comes in 38 super and 9mm. Anyway good luck in your choice!!

Barrel Length on S&W 617
I just put a S&W model 617 on layaway. I am really looking forward to getting this gun! I have been going over everything about this gun and as soon as I had all the paper work done I was questioning my decision. My only concern is the barrel length. I got the 4" barrel but now I am thinking i should of went for the 6' barrel. I have heard a lot of people say the 6" was a bit heavy out front and had a tendency to let the barrel drop. The weight of the 6" is 44.2ozs and the 4" is 38.9ozs so there is a few ozs difference. I plan to use this gun for Steel and range use only. So my question does anyone have any experience with either 4" or the 6" S&W 617? and if so, which do you like better? What length barrel do you think is the best for steel (on any style gun)?

SO does any one else??
When I was a kid I used to sleep walk and have night terrors all the time. One night I got up went out the front door with my dog and walked around the front yard and went back to bed. When my parents got up the next morning front door was wide open and then it all came back to me what i did, I was only 9 or 10 at the time. Then another time I woke up every night for a week or so and I couldn't walk on my left leg. I would just drag it around. Then I went to baseball practice and had a collision with an outfielder, we were going for the same ball and he ducked and hit me in the upper leg and I broke my femur. I ended up in traction for 2.5 months with a bad break to the femur. I have had a few other dreams that kinda came true later in life!! Kinda weird!!!!
