They don't care...They will make up criminals over night...These are not honerable people we are dealing with.

Called Majority office - they logged me in....Called Governers office, women sounded half asleep and didn't even want my name... If this goes through (unlikely I hope), would we have Illegal Magazines or "Undocumented-Magazines"? :-)... The world is tipsy-turvey, the good are criminals, the law breakers are "missunderstood". Shore Shot pistol range has this bill highlighted on the home page asking folks to take action...This whole thing is outragous, putting folks at risk so politicians can make a name for themselves.

I was told the local Chief need to do it - no Trenton - so that sounds fishy.

Well, I was allowed to get 6 and can renew after 90 for another 90 "for good cause". The good cause is the law only lets me use 3 in 90 days...All rather bizzar.

There is an Irony in all of this...God forbid it comes to it... Cuoma raged about "stoping the madnes" to confiscate the assult weopons, now he may have to use those same types of weopons to inforce (his) madness... If civilians are killed over this it will not go well for Cuoma's poltical career...The NRA will make the most over it (God forbid it happens) and they need to.

Well, It is easy to pass judgement - but it would be a very, very big step requiring much sole searching...In theory, giving (ones own) life for what you believe in may be "relatively" easy, but knowing you will likely die and leave behind say children depending on you may change the whole dynamic...Just saying...Let's face it, if the local-cops/state-troopers/ATF don't stand behind the 2nd amendment, they will come after folks one house at a time with overwhelming force...It will be very ugly, at least at the beging until, Americans see the insatity of it all (assuming the press covers the ugliness)...They did it at Rubi-Ridge (maybe for cause, I don't recall all the specifics) - but they killed his wife and kid if I remember correctly...What are you gong to do if they come to your specific house first (I am curious)?

Thanks Smokin'...And BTW, I must come "clean". Somewhere deep inside, part of the motivation (at least at the margins) to buy guns is just to do my little part to piss-off the Fienstiens, Cuamo's, and other Gun-Grabers...Never thought I would aquire so many pistols in such a short time...But I got 6 permits in november and it would be ashame to let them go unused - they are worth many times their weight in Gold! ;-)

Awsome, what else can be said!

Brave Fellows - Hope I am as brave if and when my time comes...My heart goes out to them...It is truly discusting that the Progressives want to put law abiding citizens in the same bucket as scumbags...As a US Navy Veterin, I am offended and outraged at Cuomo, and all his clan, cronies, and "prostitutes" for dergarding the second ammendment...The NY Sherifs should stand out aginst this just like some of them out west are doing...

Very, Very Sad...A great American - among the BEST!...A a real gentlemen from what I seen on his TV apperances. Anyone know if it was just a CRazy-Person who murdered him, a vendetta, or someyhing else?

I should use more precise launguage, the "bullsyes" at 100 yards with the 44 marlin carbine are about hand size groups around the bullsye...I have had this carbine since the early 80's and is as close as I will ever come to a "Gun Hairloom"....Use to go shooting with my buddies all the time with it back in the day...I would never sell or give up this Marlin...As far as what I will use the 629 for: the fun and callange of shooting. It will be used - obviously not 500 rounds a month like my 45s but no safe queen...It is very unlikely I will compensate or port it after learning more about it and what is involved and the benifit- unless I may use it for compitition someday.

Thanks for posting - very good info...Is Valley Guns a good source?...when do folks thing the panic buying of all things shootable will end?

I am quite a "pistolaro" - you asked...I was a US Navy Sharp-Shooter with a 1911 back in the day -- way back! I shoot about 500 rounds a month of 45 cal...I have a 44mag 1894 (i think that is the year) Marlin lever carbine - so I know all about how accurate this cartrage is...Really awsome...Bullseys at 100 yards all day (haven't shot at cans though ;-))...I am just thinking ahead really, asking a technical question as to if it is technally feasible...I appreciate yours and everyones thoughts (even if they come with the phyco-analisis ;-)).

Well if you want to connect History and Guns, then you MUST have a 1911 if not now when you get the money. There is no more historic pistol......Colt and Kimber are among the best for the price...You can go cheaper "but"...You can get a custom "Wilson" (mine is coming within weeks) - but save this expensive 1911 for your min-life crissis (like me! ;-)).

Good to hear a young person like you wants to get into sports sgooting...First, be safe, practice safty rules, learn your equipment inside out. (And don;t watch video games ;-))...This is truly a character building sport (even at my "deep" middle age), somthing the GunGrabers will never understand...Contratulations on thinking ahead! I recomend going with quality...I understand you may not be able to afford say an all steel 1911...Check out the Springfield XD line. I have an XDs now "pocket-pistol" 3.3" barrel, and a XDM-Competition 5.3" barrel on order.-They have many XD sizes in between to fit your needs. I am extreemly impressed with this line of semi-autos. The ergenomics are (hum it chocks me up to say) better than 1911's (the "Gold" standard). And the 3.3 inch 45 cal can hit all A's on an USPSA target at 25 yards (I did this :-))...They are at a very good price point 500-700$ and Springfield gives you a lifetime warrenty...Better to spend a couple of hundred bucks more for a brand-name - a gun that will literally last your whole life....There are many viable other options out there, but the XD line is one I can speak too (most my other pistols are 1911 which may be beyond your budget at this point in your life)... Let us know how you make out.

Good points everyone...Believe me I am not a widget guy. I have 3 rifles and 5 pistols and only widget i have is a surefire 400 light/laser for my px4 night-time home defender (anyone without a light on their @ night house gun is putting themsekves at a disadvantage...My m1a ia iron sights :-).......And absolutly agree that I will shoot it first - just trying to get some insight on options ahead of the curve...After reading up more on pros/cons of porting I will most likely not go that route... Now, is there anyway to slap an aftermarket compensator on the gun?

Wow cheep to put porst 95-125$ (+s&H and insurance)...Nice. Thanks,

Because Ray Ray (was it?) Said I'd be stroking it mostly - and I want to stroke the Pretiest - to me that is the standard/traditional look ;-)...Not going to shoot it "that much" (and I will not shoot specials - what would my Freinds and Familly say ;-)). - $$$ not an issue - so just want to enhance the performance/recovery btwn shots if I can.

Got the call this afternoon (48 hour NICS turn-around) pick her up in the AM - S&W 629 44mag 4" So, I know I am getting ahead of myself as I havn't fired her yet but... Is it possible port/compensate this standard 629? What would be the best approach: porting or compensating? Anyone know an excellent Gunsmith who might take a job like this? As always, thanks!

I am all for training and back-ground checks (sorry ;-))...I was amazed when I got my Fid last May how little (actually none) education the township gave as far as pamplets, or whatever. I was a US-Navy SharpShooter back in the day - so I had experience...But lot's of folks with no experience, no training, and likely little education getting involved these days I believe...It will be a big plus when this panic is over for all of us (assuming it will be over any time soon ;-)).

Interesting article - some companies with years of Back orders. http://www.gunsandammo.com/2013/01/30/industry-report-rise-in-gun-sales-prompting-industry-chaos/?utm_source=ENL%2DGA&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily+Newsletters&utm_term=01%2D31%2D13

Thanks again NJCK - good to know for future...Not many choice out there right now most stuff out of stock - so i ordered 100 rounds to get started - about 1$/round @ SGamo...This is a "bargin" compared to some federal hydrashok 44 mag going for 1.50$/round on Brownells anyway.

Thanks again NJCK and Everyone - polish and some of the other items folks mention are on the way (got the polish and led remover rags from amazon).

44 Magnum PMC StarFire Hollow Point 240 Grain Ammo 44SFA

BTW, I fondled the gun today and started the nics process...Nice gun, lil bigger than appears in the pictures O.L. but that is good for a big round...Really nice trigger break in SA...Is it ok to dry-fire revolvers?
