Stripper clips are cheap. Lawyers are expensive.

If it's Damascus steel I believe you should only use black powder.

UPS tells me I'll see my 400 rounds on Wednesday.

I used to get Remington UMC .45acp for $14.99/50 at Dicks just a few years ago... The good 'ol days.

The part of that that's fishy is being able to get an FID in two months.

I have decided on the Savage in .223. Now those consignments just need to sell...

It would be a bit of a ride for you, but Simon Peter Sport Co. generally has a number of Browning rifles in stock. Call ahead if you decide to go, not sure what has been snatched up.

OMG, what about the children?

I hope that none of those magazines hold more than 15 rounds...

Yep, PFC during operation Overlord. One of the first to land on Omaha Beach. Awarded Silver Star and several Purple Hearts. RIP Sir.

I'm looking for a new bolt gun, either a Remington 700 or The above mentioned Savage. I'm considering .223 or .308. I'm leaning towards .223, because it is inexpensive to reload, light recoil, and I will be able to hunt Coyotes with it in 2014 should Fish and Game implement the proposed changes. Remington has recently had QC issues, but there are countless accesories for the 700 series of rifles. Savage has the Accu trigger and are some of the most accurate out of the box. Plus it just looks bad ass with the digi-cammo stock and the threaded bull barrel. Let me hear your opinions, please.

I think there are some Vietnamese as well, also in the unobtanium category. I have a Russian and a Yugo. Great fun, and decent shooters with bulk ammo. I found some Lapua ammo and that stuff was amazing out of the Yugo. I still have 2 or 3 boxes to try in the Russian, but I hate to use it up. Sadly, it's Berdan primed brass.

I used to go to the East Hanover store a few times a week. There was a fellow there who worked in the Lodge who really knew his stuff. He was very personable to boot. I bought a handful of guns from him and lots of ammoe when it was affordable. 500 rounds of 9mm for $80.00, cases of .45 for $150.00, etc. Then they remodeled and yanked the gun counter. I've only been back a handful of times for some last minute camping stuff. The only other store here in NJ I have experience with is Rockaway. Nice selection of weapons, the last time I was there that is, but employees that are as useless as tits on a bull. I would be the only one in the store and would have to wait 20 minutes for help. Several times I left, still not having seen a salesperson. OTOH, I visited a Dick's in northern Virginia, and there selection was astonishing. They had Beretta doubles, and other high-end weapons, and the gun department was about the size of the stores here in NJ. At least that's how I remember it.

Gibbs was a Marine, so I'm going with Marines.

Judging by all the dots, I don't think there are too many to skip. Impressive. I thought to see that many gun owners you'd have to go further up-state. ETA despicable on the part of the newspaper.

Sorry that you had to experience that, and thank you for doing what you did. If it bothers you, talk to someone about it. Check with the local hospital or FD when you get home and they can put you in touch with someone who deals with critical incident stress debriefs.

Avi is a good guy to deal with, he worked with my crazy schedule and the transaction went very well.

I just came back from my first trip to Shore Shot. There were a few shotguns and a nice Enfield, and one AR style rifle on the wall, though I don't know if it was spoken for or not. There was a case full of handguns as well. I was suprised to see some Magpul, Troy Industries and BCM accesories on the shelf, so I picked up some supplies for my next build.

I can finally say that I am well above average.

I wonder why that is. Is it very light weight? I would think the semi-auto action would soak up a lot of the recoil.

I believe that the PTR 91C is the NJ compliant version. I was looking into one, was very close to purchasing one, but read many reviews that they beat the hell out of the brass as it is being extracted/ejected. As I plan to reload for the rifle, I want the brass to be in good shape. I decided to get an AR style .308. I won't be surprised if I question my reasoning in the future. It is a unique rifle, compared to the AR.

At the suggestion of a friend who has been shooting and reloading longer than I have been alive, I load .45's (Colt and ACP) and 9mm with Bullseye. No complaints, other than some soot after a prolonged range session. I recently got a pound of Unique to try.

I didn't know that there was a delay with the Cordite. Kind of like a flintlock, I guess. I have heard that it is very hot and will burn up barrels. Although as much as I (don't) get to shoot, it would take me a while.

Outstanding person to deal with, sent him payment, I had the product 2 days later. Buy with confidence.

The last gun show I went to I actually found some surplus .303. I've heard many stories that it dried up long ago. The stuff I found was made by Prvi Partizan in 1973. Should I assume that it is corrosive? It is also labeled MK8z nitro-cellulose powder on the box label. Will this be safe to use in my Enfields? Thanks in advance.
