Your Opinion - Beretta 92FS as 1st 9MM Handgun
I can see how it happens... favorable opinions lead to justification of the gun at hand, whereas the negative opinions of it usually lead to a recommendation the person replying believes to be more suitable. It doesnt mean either side is wrong or right.. especially in a market where variety is the spice of life.

Where to buy a safe
Are there any solutions for safes where handguns are the prominent weapon of the safe. I know as I build a collection I would like to incorporate an AR and a Shotty, but my own tastes lean towards handguns. Is there such as style safe that will allow modular boxes to include 2-4 long guns and the remaining built for storing handguns/ammo/accessories?

Which is more debated?
Hatfield or McCoy

some strange contrary information
You mean there's other uses for bearing arms?

some strange contrary information
One thing ive learned over the years in "studies" is that they can be skewed by sample groups. In 1977... did they REALLY ask every household in America if they owned a gun? and to further my point.. what type of data sampling did they use to come to the conclusion of their new findings.. Its very hard to get accurate evidence regarding people's stance when 300 million people are the target. On a side note, you'd think that a study done by the Violence Policy Center is as biased as the Tobacco co's telling us their study shows that smoking actually cures cancer and not causes it.

Your Opinion - Beretta 92FS as 1st 9MM Handgun
As an entry level gun owner the best (and only) advice is to go to your local range, spend 60 bucks on renting 4 or so pistols and weighing your own opinion on which one you feel most comfortable with. If you only plan on buying one pistol.. make it the one you are most comfortable with shooting. I did the aforementioned and ran through the list of all of the above +1 not mentioned and settled for that +1. So as obvious as the previous posts before mine, there are those that have found THEIR handgun that's their go to piece. You go out and put some rounds down range with an assortment of guns and see which one best suits you. ~advice form a n00b~

Name some good things historically about NJ.
Major locations of the Revolutionary War (Trenton,Monmouth) Princeton Univ.... Major Military Installments (Dix/McGuire/Lakehurst) Hindenburg disaster (i know not good, but notable) Bruce Springsteen (duh) Hamilton-Burr Duel (when shooting people was civilized) I may add a few here and there but these stick out at me for being staples of NJ's history. NJ Turnpike... not many roads as dense, regularly traveled, and now highly unaffordable to commute like the NJTP.

GunVault Question
Really eying up this one. Cabelas showing $275 http://www.gunvault.com/speedvault-biometric-svb500.html Not for everyone I guess, but Id like something to mount between the bed and nightstand on the wall. Quick access and permanant mounting. Id shy away from the biometric option due to complaints of overall biometric sensor degradation in the safe/vault field.

NJ FID application data collection effort
1. Application type Initial FID Request + Permit 2. Police Department where you applied. Manchester 3. Name of the person you dealt with at the PD. Unknown Clerk at Records 4. Time taken to issue FID and/or permit. 24 days 5. Documents required by the PD (aside from the standard application and the mental health release form).Notarized document stating I am not a drug/alcohol abuser. Fingerprinted at a third party location for the background check ($60) 6. Notes - anything pertaining to the application process (unforeseen difficulties, chief of police calling your home, you hiring an attorney, etc.). Shocked at the admittance of the clerk it should take 3 months for the request to be approved, and even more shocked that the approval notice came in 24 days. Way to go Manchester!

Shore shot fail. Brick armory fail (no ones fault)
Weekend shooting seems to be BRUTAL at BA and SS. I stopped in SS Sunday night close to closing and the place was still packed. Happen to be lucky enough to be off during off-peak hours for a little peace and quiet.

How did you hear about NJGF?
Was searching the google machine on NJ specific gun laws and this popped up. Seemed to be a no brainer to join up and add to the community.

New from Manchester
Just dropping by to introduce myself. Im a resident of Manchester. Grew up in Old Bridge. Work as a firefighter and am anxiously awaiting my FID and pistol permit. (dunno what took me so long) Have been out shooting at Shore Shot and look to check out Brick Armory in the near future. Looking to pick up a Sig p226 .40 (two tone) for my first and expand my collection by at least another 2 handguns, an AR, and a Shotgun. Love having a valuable resource for information regarding weapons in general and more specifically how NJ bastardizes the process of procuring such. Interested in range firing and HD (hoping the need never arises) Look forward to contributing to the site and showing off the goods when the steel meets hand. Thanks for having me
