How long did it take?

Sure, I'll do that tonight. They are basically fiber front, with 3 interchangeable colors in the box, and black rear adjustable sights.

That was the first thing I did when I got home, lol.

Well, here she is. Thanks again to Steve at monmouth arms. Can't wait to get out to the range with my 2 new toys

I understand that, but 3 weeks is a little too long for me.

The title says it all. I need a place to thread the Shilen Match Barrel on my Savage .308, locally near Manalapan. I called HGW, and even though their price is pretty good they have a 3 week turnaround. I am trying to find someone locally with a decent price and turnaround time. Any suggestions?

It doesn't say it on the form but do we need to send in a passport photo? Is there a photo on the permit? Or just application and check? Also, are you guys putting in your SSN?

I decided not to take a chance and ordered my gun locally. The funny thing is that I got it new for $14 more than a used one was selling for at the show.

Bob, i'm pretty sure you are right, these will probably be very painful. But I want to try them out first, a set of rubber grips came with the gun so if these hurt too much I will definitely switch them out.

Well, here she is with the venom mounted, picked it up at Oaks yesterday. Had to open up the gap a little in the rail, the gaps are too small, most likely weaver not picatinny. But once I opened it up the venom fit perfectly. Now I can't wait to get it out to the range.

I just got back from there, prices on almost everything there are more than they are online. There were only a handful of deals. I was able to pick up a venom for $195 though. Probably will be cheaper on black friday but i can't wait that long

I was originally leaning towards the PPQ45, only because there is no VP45 on the horizon, I already have a VP9 and I love it. Without question the PPQ quality is top of the line, but I compared to other high quality striker .45, in my view, it's only outstanding feature is the trigger, which is not a deal maker for me. So I started looking at other thinks such a cost of ownership, sights, etc. And honestly the XDm 5.25" won out. It has a longer sight radius, fiber front sights and adjustable rear sights. All the online reviews i've seen are positive, and the magazines are $25 instead of $45. Plus it comes with 3 magazines and SA has a rebate offer for 4 more free magazines. So it was either all of that for the XDm or the better trigger of the PPQ. That is just my take on it. I will be ordering the XDm tomorrow, thanks everyone for your feedback.

Another Manalapan resident from Brooklyn? I grew up in Bensonhurst myself, on stillwell avenue across from the Marlboro projects, what a hell hole that place is now. Oh, and I prefer bagels!

Where are you getting $1.30 per pound?

I agree, but that wasn't the question. The question was, what are the R-14 rules.

That's exactly what it is. I couldn't have said it better myself.

They don't require you to clean up your brass, you can leave it where it landed. They do however require you to pick up your shot gun shells.

You may pick up your brass, if you want. But if you are picking up brass you can ONLY pick up your own. You do not have to pick up your brass, but you can't pick up any one else's brass. You MUST however pick up shotgun shells, target, and any other garbage.

Yes. Any long gun, as long as it's NJ legal. You buy it on the spot and take it home

I drive from Manalapan to Paramus up and down route 9 and the GSP every day, I know traffic well, and I know about all the idiots who can't drive. Drove by that 4 car accident on the GSP north bound, just at around exit 129 at around 6:50am yesterday. Took me 2 hours to get to work instead of the usual hour and 15 minutes.

WHERE IS THE VP45??????

the 4 free mag rebate I believe is good till June. It also includes a holster and double-mag holder.

I'm actually seriously thinking about the XD(M)® 5.25″ COMPETITION SERIES .45ACP
