  1. Sure doesn't sound like it was anything you did --- Proves it can happen to anyone Glad your OK and didn't get it in the face
  2. You are welcome to use them if you want -- when you said "I'll be shooting the GSG" I just figured 1911 I've seen you had a gun buying disease -- though you had both Jer
  3. I'll be there with my son. He'll be shooting a ruger MKIII hunter. I think I'm going to shoot the GSG 1911. I though I read that the GSG mags would fit the colt -- Have you tried them? Jer
  4. I wish I could but saturdays this time of year are hard to get free for me What is the round count for this? How many shots per stage average? Just curious Jer
  5. How's this for a good reason -- It's what I practice with -- Train how your gonna fight I haven't bought a factory centerfire pistol or rifle round in 20 years -- I enjoy reloading -- I'm going to use what I know if I ever need to defend what is important to me I have learned something from this -- nobody knows for sure Jer
  6. Saturday is no good for me but we'll be there for Sunday. Jake has been running thru the house yelling "shooter ready" for days. Jer
  7. Homemade super bullet of death, +p++++ cooked up in my basement --- Why does everyone assume it some super hot, go thru 4 phone books, super hot load. What if it's the other way around? I live in a house with walls and neighbors. I'm responsible for that bullet know matter where it goes. My target will be close range - within 10 feet Why do i need a bullet that will penetrate the next 3 houses? I know this isn't the norm but I have a HD gun loaded with .38 wadcutters right now. I hope I never have to use it but if I do I want that bullet to stop in the perps T shirt on the way out. I like my neighbors, I don't want bullets entering their home. Griz wrote --I created the scenario above to help to explain GSR. I said you shot the guy when he was 5' away not 50'. I don't know where everyone gets the idea that in NJ you are always going to jail if you are involved in a SD shooting. (provided you are legally armed at the time). --- My point here was - I'll never be legally armed in NJ outside my home. It's not possible for me, a mere mortal, here in NJ. Currently, My HD rounds are no different than my everyday target rounds, I know where they will hit and can control the recoil with ease. Now maybe I'll get some up-armored super human who decides what I have is worth coming after but I doubt it. That just isn't the reality of what's going on around here. Maybe I should just switch out to shotguns and shoot buckshot. Jer
  8. You know who the last guy to tell me "instant jail" was... senior salesman at heritage guild in branchburg as far as the scenario above and 50' away -- This is NJ -- I'm a civilian -- that happens to me I'm going to jail no matter where the guy was or what I shot him with I'm talking in my house, no way of escape, kids in harms way, clean shoot. Glad to hear the general consensus is it's all bull. reliability -- I'd be willing to bet there are a quite a few more factory rounds that have failed to go boom than hand loads -- I've made 10 maybe 15 thousand rounds in my reloading career only 1 failed to go boom - it was my fault, and it never got loaded into the gun, primer flipped and went in backwards -- .223 in the AR.
  9. Why is it that whenever you say your a reloader you always get the "hope you don't use them in your HD gun"? "Instant jail if you actually shoot an intruder with a hand loaded bullet you made" is what I always hear -- My question is WHY? Why would a bullet I made be any different then a bullet made by hornady. Forget about performance I want to know why I go to jail instantly if I use one of my hand loaded bullets to defend myself. Jer
  10. Agreed --- Over 12 months since last permit need new prints in my township too --
  11. Jake is dying to see how he did. I hate to say it but I know he whooped me - I just hope its not too badly. It was still a good day even though it was hot. Jer
  12. You mean there's no shrapnel at CJ --- How's that work? Lead absorbing steel plates??? Seriously -- I've only ever shot steel at OB -- Who puts on the better show and why - OB or CJ?? Jer
  13. My son and I will be there. We're all ready to go -- Just gotta pack the cooler in the morning. Hope Cheryl makes it.
  14. So we gonna have enough for our own squad??? Doesn't seem like a very large head count from here. I guess we'll find out in the morning. Jer
  15. I have both and I shoot the shotguns way more than the ARs.
  16. He's been shooting with me a few years now... Last year we took up skeet shooting -- Nothing formal, just throw your own stuff -- We reload our shells and I know I used 2000+ primers for him I'm hoping steel has the same effect and is fun enough to keep him interested ---
  17. Anyone know how the fees will work with my son. He's 12. Will he be able to shoot under my membership?
  18. Pay attention to the shipping charges from Natchez....
  19. Google sure has been censoring results and I never knew it --- This past week I've been searching Redding .38 super dies and getting very little in results using google --- I just tried that Duck go search -- WOW! real results -- No more google for me --- Thanks for the heads up
  20. So is there steel this weekend? No calendar up as of this posting. My son and I are in if there is this sunday. We'll both be shooting .22 rimfires. Jer
  21. From what I understand there's a new manager in the gun section -- He's rather young. The prices are a lot more realistic than they used to be but still on the higher end.
  22. Stocking VV powders in NJ???? I've never seen that. I get mine through one of the online dealers -- Powder Valley was my last order -- Just order enough to justify the hazmat charge Jer
  23. I was kinda just hoping to see what all you guys where running. I'd shoot a 1911 so mine's easy -- single stack
  24. I got 5 gsg 1911 mags for $26.95 each shipped Thats the best price I've seen.
