I grew up in that area, everything is ghetto as hell. I'm so glad I finally left. I shoot at Sunset Hill and love it, being outdoors rules !

I love GFH radio ! ! ! ! I've needed extensive dental work so I've been listening during root canals, this show makes me look forward to visitng the dentist. This show is a plethora of knowledge my friends. I emailed Anthony for advice on how to make my place of employment safer and literally within the hour he responded with great tips and suggestions on how and what do.

Ramsey outdoor was like that before I got my FID. I was there every other day just staring at rifles like a fat kid outside a bakery. The day I finally got my FID, it was like something out of Wayne's World when he went to buy the guitar. Wow, I though NICS was closed on Sundays?

I saw a 1911 this past weekend at Ramsey Outdoor while getting my wife fitted for her first handgun. It was a Sig and only 399, now I don't know too much about handguns but I knew Sigs are pretty up there in price. Upon further inspection I noticed it was manufactured in Germany. The gun was very nice looking, good fit and finish from what I saw, plus it felt good in my hand. It was OD green and had wooden grips that read US on each side sort of etched or engraved. Also, saw some good reviews on the web and some reffered to it as one of the most underrated guns of 2011. I had to pass on it, though. Such an American classic which was issued to our soldiers during WWII to fight against Germans mainly. I just didn't feel comfortable, I felt like I'd be doing a disservice to the men and women who fought in that war. I don't mean to offend anyone but it just didn't feel right, I'd much rather purchase one made in the USA. Ruger's 1911 is really nice and can be had for under 700 bucks if you know where to look.

When I got my FID it took close to a month, the only hold up was getting the appointment for finger prints. I'm wondering if my wait was short because Hopatcong is pretty firearms friendly? I'm actually dropping off my handgun paperwork today and my wife is dropping hers off tomorrow. I really hope we don't have to wait long. I got my eye on Ruger's 1911. It'd suck having to cry myself to sleep every night till I get it. lol

And I'm the bad guy when I suggest sterilization.

Hackettstown is awesome, I got my Mosin there. He said he usually keeps a few around. I think the ex snipers don't come in as often.

Can't have too Mosin projects, so here's mine. I bought one in early September that I haven't even looked at yet, specifically as winter project, I plan on stripping it, removing all the cosmo, sanding down the stock to bare wood, then painting it OD green. I know, not very exiting but my abilities are limited and I'm still learning. Other project is turning a spare bass guitar case into a rifle case, I can easily fit 2 rifles in it along with scopes. Not too exiting but should keep me home so I'm not out wasting fuel and money.

NO such law, I always stop at the Walmart in PA to buy ammo on my way to the range, never had a problem.

I saw the ones they had at Ramsey, but I felt kind of rushed, there was a lot of people there and only one guy behind the counter. That dude is a wealth of info IMO, I still want to shop around and see if I can get a better price, plus I'm open to purchasing a used one as well.

Thank you all for your info, much appreciated. I think I need to set a full day aside to hit places up and take my time.

Thanks man, I think I'll hit up Mastadon, I looked them up. I'll have to wait till Saturday, plans got foiled, things got crazy at work and I had to return after my appointment.

oops, I meant Rifle, I can't spell very well in the AM. I'm interested in a wood stock, plain looking Ruger 22, 16 inch barrel. I wouldn't mind finding a used one with a so so scope so I can just grab and go. Sorry for the lack of info.

Ok, so getting out of work early today for a doctors appointment, thinking of purchasing a Ruger 22 or similar, does anyone now of a good place with decent used selection between Somerset and Vernon?

Oops, forgot to specify, its the 500 tactical which already includes side rails. I'm wnodering if the light will clip to either side or if I need to use that rail mount it comes with?

Streamlight® TLR-3 Compact Rail-Mounted Tactical Light Sorry for the dumb question, the Cabela's sight didn't specify and I just wanted to make sure before purchasing one. Any feedback is appreciated, Thanks

I can certainly see both sides to this. I think it's a good idea in the sense if people feel they are being watched they tend to act accordingly, less stuff is broken and Cherry Ridge is able to keep costs low. I mean, we have to show our FIDs to buy ammo in this state, so a prosecutor can easly say hey, "look how often this guy buys ammo. he was planning something all along" Just by being gun owners we already have strikes against us. Bottom line, if they really want to make an example of you, they'll put out all the stops. It's a shame in the end being punished for protecting your family, yourself an your property.

I was here with the old lady a few weeks back, I picked up some ammo since it was cheap. There were alot of dudes selling rifles at their tables. I didn't buy any, for I wasn't too sure but is this ok? The guys were just taking cash for them, no questions asked. Are NJ residents allowed to purchase and bring them into the state? Just curious since some dudes had nice stuff. I guess civil war muskets that don't work anymore would be ok for decoration, but I wasn't going to take a chance on the other stuff.................. Thoughts?

I got a root canal scheduled for next saturday in HUdson County, I may get there right as they open and squeeze off a few. Don't wanna shoot post root canal coming off all that numbing stuff.

Cabela's prices aren't all that economical, Mosin Nagant they had for 150, I got at Hackettstown Guns and Ammo for 100 + tax and NICS but still cheape and I saved on gas.

Thanks for all the info guys, much appreciated. I don't go anywhere without my FID, I specifically buy PJs with pockets so I can sleep with it on me. As far as stopping at the strip club, I don't think it'll be very conducive with my old lady in tow. Unless I spring for a couple's lap dance....................

I'm in Hopatcong, guess about 30 minutes from Vernon. I need to become a member at Cherry Ridge, I hear its pretty cool................

Will do, thanks for the quick response. Much appreciated.

Not sure if this has been covered before, if so, my apologies for redundancy. My father in law lives in DE and belongs to a gun club, if I want to shoot with him can I bring my shotgun to DE when I go visit on weekends?

Forgot to mention I'm from Sussex County..................
