I watched a clip of hoplophobe Piers Morgan interviewing a Sheriff from Florida about the movie theater shooting there. Old Piers tried and tried to get the Sheriff to denounce gun ownership, but again and again the Sheriff told Piers that he was wrong. The Sheriff explained, that in Florida they don't have a gun problem, they have a drug and mental health problem. It was really nice to see someone who carries a gun every day to protect himself from others with guns, sticking up for the truth! It got me thinking about the chances of seeing a Law Enforcement Officer from NJ doing the same thing in a similar situation. I Know that if you ask ten people a question you'll get ten different opinions, but im wondering what the NJ Law Enforcement community's overall opinion on private gun ownership is. As well as the stance on such things as concealed carry, mag limits, etc. Thanks for any input.

Been to all three, Shooters is head and shoulders above the rest! Nice classroom area, and the range in actually divided into two rooms, so they can have classes and be seperate from other shooters. Super clean and well lit. BA and SS are cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Shooters is always warm enough for short sleeves, and it's air conditioned for the summer! They require people shooting there for the first time to watch a 10 min saftey video, which im actually happy to see them do, (been around some iffy people at public ranges.) Good prices for ammo and guns, and they have waay more in stock than BA and SS combined. They also have indoor archery range with a balcony for tree stand hunters. Huge archery/crossbow selection, lots of hunting, and Carharrt aparel, boots, and fishing gear. All within a 10 minute drive from my home in Manahawkin. The only complaint I have is that I'd like to see an area like BA has at the back wall for your gear etc.

Im about ready to make my next hand gun purchase. Most likely its going to be a Glock 22 or 23. Ive been to Shore Shot in Lakewood, but havent checked out Brick Armory yet. My question is, does anyone know if one shop is known to have better prices than the other? I hate going to one shop, checking out what they have, leave, then come back! Also, if anybody has purchased a 22 or 23 from these shops recently, how much did you pay? Thanks!

Thanks everyone for the replies!

My Brother in Law wants me to go with him and shoot on land owned by his Father. He swears that his family has been using the land to shoot on for generations. I would much rather confirm the legality of this with someone who makes or enforces the laws, however the local police have given me a rather unconvincing "should be no problem." I have a Marlin 795 .22 and just orderd a Sig P220 that I would love to bring out and have fun with, but I don't want ANY problems with New Jersey Law Enforcement! Any comment on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Just picked up my FID and permits today! Went straight to Tip's in West Creek and orderd a Sig P220! Been lurking for a while and figured today is as good as any to finally sign up.
