Thanks for all the options guys! I'm waiting for my pops to get his over/under fixed. Once that happens we're probably going to go. Having never gone before, I know very little about the sport. I'm hoping someone can answer a few questions for me: * I'm assuming I have to bring my own clays/targets? I imagine places sell them there, but they are probably cheaper elsewhere? * How many rounds can I expect to go through in an afternoon? I've heard guesstimates from 200-2000. Looking at probably 2 hours...maybe 3... * I've been trying to find the differences between skeet & trap. From what I gather...in skeet you have two houses that launch targets towards each other, and you walk around them in a 1/2 circle, stopping to take shots. In trap, you don't move, and you stand behind one house that launches one target in a random direction. Is this correct? Thanks guys!

That's a great deal! I may have to stop at a Dicks tonight. Side note...I went to their site to look at a sale flyer. My "home store" is in Brick. It showed me a bike assembly guide as the sale flyer. Had to change to Manahawkin to see the real deal. I usually shop at www.cheaperthandirt.com ...but for 50% off, I'm sure Dicks wins!

It's a little late, but I'll drop my $0.02 in. My G17 was a little "too much" for my wife, so she picked out the P22 because of the size of it and the way it felt in her hand (they didn't have one in the store for her to shoot to try). She ran about 80-100 rounds through it and liked it. She's not a very "dexterous" person, so the mag release for her was an issue. I've started taking it to the range when I go, and it is a fun little gun to shoot. For me, the mag release is fine. I had shot Federal rounds through it as well as CCI Mini Mags, and I'm going to stick with the CCI just because they are cleaner. I had one non-fire with the Federal stuff, none with CCI. The safety on it is a bit different. The trigger still is allowed to travel, and the hammer still goes forward, but it's stopped from making contact with the primer. Took me one or two times to notice this was happening and that the rounds were actually fine. I've got about 1000 rounds through it now, and it is a nice fun gun. It's not as accurate as my old Ruger Standard, but it's pretty close. (Could also be me, since I've got larger hands and I'm still learning how to consistently grip the P22) --Brian

Hi all. I've wanted to go trap shooting for a long time. I just found out my dad used to LOVE it, so I really want to go out with him now. I found Central Jersey Rifle and Pistol Club offers it, but I'm not a member and I can't find anywhere on their site that they are open to non-members. Does anyone know of another place in central / south Jersey? Thanks! --Brian PS: I just found these forums. This place is awesome!
