NJ is an unjust shithole. I would avoid it if possible.

Or Albany... Is that you, Momo? Leave no troll unturned!

To Sniper, I am tired of the LEFT controlling the discourse, troll or not!

Welcome to the most successful country in the world despite its dumb-ass progressive minority. Nothing like European busybodies or conniving US Democrat Socialist statists pretending to be European citizens giving up their freedoms and forcing their illogic and tyrranical policies on others. Please provide data that criminals have NOT used guns in crimes in Great Britain since those unjust laws were passed? Have other weapons been used? Didn't they pass laws against carrying pocket knives too, those enlighten Brits. and yet there are knife crimes. How did it work out at the children's camp in one of your gun-free zones? Just because you collectivists are too irresponsible and too emotional to own a firearm doesn't mean that others aren't. When humans are dumbed down, indoctrinated, and taught not to be responsible for their actions they excel in stupidity. Study history and then shoot your mouth off Moron. How many people were killed during this last century from Europeans that decided to start a couple of World Wars, establish concentration camps, ship people to Siberian graves, and influence other bastions of freedom such as Red China and North Korea, etc.... Mass murder by governments would seem to be a bigger threat to human life than all of the mass shootings. AND, how many people are saved every day by firearms, or the possibility that they could be used. Why not provide all coverage of gun interactions, instead of just a one-sided version? It is too bad you are "pussled".

Check out this video's message last week about history from John Lovell at his brilliant site Warrior Poet Society:

Thanks, Snyper and Silverado. Americans need to count their blessings. My God! How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy! - Thomas Jefferson Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. - Ronald Reagan

I chuckled when reading "This Story" and its spin. It could have been written without all of the anti-gun propaganda such as arsenal, bullet in the chamber, photos of bad things on his phone, etc. The fact that he would use the media to destroy his former girlfriend and that he was into drugs, etc. suggests to me on face value that he is indeed a bad guy and that maybe he was involved with more than just saving lives. I doubt that he was an upstanding citizen and that he was wronged by his previous girlfriend and perhaps had been a vicitim and and is why he carried, and he had to break the law to carry because the the busy-bodies made it so and would have left him defenseless, but there is that. I wonder if he will actually be allowed to have a jury made up with some pro-Bill of Rights "activists". I am sure that he will face more jail time than some animal that actually shot some other animal point blank in the back of the head and murdered him at a "church" function somewhere in the Eastern Block of Newark or Jersey City in Booker's hood, as those standard-capacity magazines are a little excessive and the jig is up.

Screw Nut Bolt Hammer Wrench (permissive) permits and socialist Democraps and RINOs! Who gave them permission to waft all their crap our way? We the People need to start a permit system for politicians.

Since you most likely cannot concealed carry in the Republik and you want something with less recoil, you most likely are looking at a semi-auto compact or full-size handgun in 9 mm. I would say your best value would be an M&P 2.0 Full-size or Compact w/ either a 4.25", 4" or 3.6" barrel. My choice would be the 4" Compact for your first gun, but my favorite is the 3.6" Compact. The M9A3 that was suggested would be quite nice as well if you are OK w/ Double-action/Single Action instead of Striker Fired. A Glock 19 would be a great choice as well, or its big brother the Glock 17. A CZ variety would also be a good choice, but the Glocks and Smiths are simpler. For optics ready I might consider a Performance Center M&P 9. Other calibers to consider would be .380, .38, .357, .40, and .45 ACP. They are all more expensive to shoot. If you were considering a nice beginner gun check out Slav Guns Youtube channel and the review of the M&P 380 EZ. A 1911 in 9mm might be an awesome and viable alternative as well, but the Strikers are easier to manipulate. .40 and .45 ACP would not be the best choice for a beginner not wanting too much recoil. Other considerations might be the striker fired CZ, A Sig Sauer such as a 226 or 229, A GP100 (if you want .38/.357). A Glock 48 might be a nice 10-rounder. Keep in mind that this won't be the last handgun you purchase. My short list would include: M&P 2.0 full size, or Compact, OR Glock 19 or 17. But there are so many choices. You really need to go and try some different ones. https://grabagun.com/smith-and-wesson-mp9-m2-0-cmpct-9mm-10-1-4-fs.html The Glock 34 you were interested in would be a fine choice. I prefer the 19, instead, though. And the Ruger Mark IV would be a fun shooter, but not as good a choice for most for defense due to reliability and ammo selecltions l

I'm applying for permits tomorrow even though I am not interested in a handgun right now.There needs to be a class action filed. Incompetent , corrupt, conniving, colluding statists. There needs to be accountability. Fudds be damned.

They have no problem printing out tickets, state tax forms, etc.

The law-abiding and peaceful Sheeple will just bend over to the unconstitutional and unjust tyranny.

I am a fan of the show as well. The characters are done very well.

This is what happens when the morons in this state vote for Socialist and Statists who just won't leave decent, law-abiding Americans alone. And it just shows the disdain and contempt that they have for the poor slobs that they want to force us all to become. Take away the natural right that is reinforced against tyranny by the Constitution and leave the most poor among us unable to defend themselves from the very animals that the elite continue to allow to wander among us as their lawyer friends get rich. And lets continue the zero tolerance conditioning as we make good, subservient, wussified tax-slaves. Thank you all you shitheads in NJ. I guess you know us useful idiots will try to comply. Maybe the State should come up with a shithead surcharge, instead, to help pay down its interest on the interest of the interest of the money that it hasn't stolen or pissed away and still owes for the collectivist paradise it dangers over the mAsses as soft and fluffy toilet paper.

It never stops. It is such a heavy weight to think about the people that lost their lives, and then to be saddened and then kicked by an oppressive media and government that wants to leave us even more defenseless against these animals.

SARCO might have some spare parts.

The Smith & Wesson 2.0 Compacts are awesome. I think Smith should release a 2.0 version of the venerable 9C with both sleeves for 2.0 Compact mags and the full size. I would prefer it to be teh same slide length as the older one with the 3.5" barrel, but would be just as happy with one the same length as the 3.6 version of the 2.0 Compact. I really like the versatility of being able to use the three different size magazines as well as many aftermarket products, and I believe that the older M&P doesn't really reach its potential until it has an APEX trigger installed and something like a Hyve +3 extension plate. That plate makes it pretty awesome because it gives the 9C essentially the same grip length as the new 2.0s or a Glock 19. And, although it is slightly longer in the front of the grip, it is actually shorter than the 2.0s in the rear, which makes it nice for concealment. And, of course the 9C could utilize the flush grip plate with or without some pinky extensions and the use of the full-size magazines. And, just as with the other M&Ps, maybe newer 9C stock might have an updated trigger in it which would largely alleviate an Apex trigger unless you want a more Glock-like style trigger. And, as far as breaking down, the M&Ps are almost as easy as Glocks, except for the need to remove the rear sight. I really like the Hyve products. They work nicely on the Glock 43 and M&P Shield. I am not a fan of the slippery texture or the gaudy colors or the emblem. It is not quite as bad as the Lone Wolf one, but... And, I wonder if Hyve could make aluminum sleeve adapters for the magazines that actually bolt on and attach securely. The M&P 9C is a perfectly balanced handgun and loses all of that top-heavy awkwardness with the use of the pricey Hyve Extension. It really makes a completely new gun. It is perfect, no. Might rattle a little, etc., and for free America it would give 15 rounds on tap. Some would find that the 9C would still have some problem with dropping mags freely and/or reloading and pinching your fingers, etc. but it really is neat and an upgraded version of the 9C, would be nice. And there still isn't a viable way to use 2.0 Compact mags in the 9C as X-grip and others have not stepped up to the plate. Lastly, for those carrying, they may not want the awesome grip texture on the newer M&P versions and might find the venerable 9C just the ticket. I think the 9C in this configuration does circles around the Glock 26. it would be cool if Hyve made aluminum grip sleeves that bolt onto the magazines for Glocks and M&Ps that would enable the smaller guns to utilize the larger mags. As a side note, the Hyve +3 extenders work with ONLY the 12-round 9C magazines and a 2.0 Compact Mag Block 15 to 10 to give you a 10-round Kompliant NJ magazine.

There is actually too much play with the safety/bolt release and that is the problem. Ruger has no fix. I am wondering if some kind of spacer might help.

My Uncle just bought a Lite and it rattles a lot. It seems to be the mag release/safety. Any thoughts?

I got rid of one of the first SIG 1911-22 a while back. It functioned flawlessly and I liked it a lot, but I had some misgivings about its quality and long-term durability. Not sure about their quality, now. Probably should have kept it. You may not want the reduced size, but I would check out a Browning. It is kinda like a Commander-size at the range.

Gunmagwarehouse.com https://gunmagwarehouse.com/walther-ppq-m1-classic-9mm-10-round-magazine.html Gunmagwarehouse.com also has the M&P 2.0 Compact 10-rounds for about $38.00.

Disappointed in the last season. Poor character development and follow through. The writers suck. The only cool thing i can say is that it the White Walkers weren't central... it is the Game of Thrones after all. Why hasn't the little guy learned from his mistakes? He is blinded around the two queens, i guess. The swashbuckling and dragon play was pretty awesome in this season, but where is the character development except for the Assassin...

That is why I waited to renew and just paid the late fee.

This is an awesome gun but just does not work for me.
