Are you a race walker? 16 miles at a 15 minute pace is a 4 hour walk each way. Add a backpack and unless you're in great shape it ca easily become 5 hours.

Sorry to bring this one back from the dead but I got an update. I found an used one in great condition a week or so ago. It came with two original 15 round mags and the seller also had another two extra fifteen rounders that he sold me as well. Ran three boxes down the pipe today without a glitch. Very smooth trigger and well balanced pistol. I just wish the mag release could be reversed. As a lefty it would be easier to operate. Once again, thanks for all the help and for suggesting the CZ in first on another thread.

No, at least not anymore.

Another shout out for Gun for hire. Took their NRA pistol first step (or something like that) course even before I had applied for my FID. Jimmy was the instructor. It covers safety, types of guns, names of gun parts and at the end you get to shoot a glock and a revolver. The certificate you receive at the end is good for the Florida CCW should you choose to apply. Cost was around 190.00 but was it money very well spent, specially since I had almost zero experience with firearms.

^^^ This. Ask, Most people would be glad to see it gone. Pine and related evergreens are very easy to spot. You'll see the resin seeping out and will smell like, well, pine. Also the bark is very distinctive. You'll need a chainsaw to cut up those logs. For very light, occasional use homelite brand from the borg will be fine. But if you're going to process a couple cords/year, I would get a sthil or husqvarn. Both brands make quality machines, it's just a question of which dealer is nearest to you and which color you prefer.

Gosh, man, right after Sandy you couldn't walk around Boonton, Mt. Lakes...without tripping on piles of already cut oak, maple and ash. Right there by the sidewalk, ready for the take. If Alsteade runs their wood business like they run their peach picking business, run as fast as you can.

Thanks.

Not to highjack either (which I'm about to do) I would be in for .22LR depeding on the brand or 9mm or both.

Cash is king.

How do you like the RIA? I'm thinking about picking one up myself in .45 ACP.

Nevermind

Sorry, meant last in line and not directed at you.

Meh. East Side High in Newark has had uniformed police presence for ever. Mainly to prevent the youts from shooting each other, though.

Drove half way to meet me. Said it would be a little early and he was. Said the gun was in pristine condition and it was. Held his side of the deal and I held mine. I walked away happy and I think he did too. Great deal, great to deal with.

Yes indeed they have a 75B-D in stock. Nice pistol, fits me right. Saw it this morning. It went like this: Me: Nice I'll take it. Need it shipped to NJ. Either to one of your locations if it's free or if there's a charge, shipped to my local FFL since it's only a few miles away from me. Can the mags be sawped to 10 rds since 16 is not NJ leagal? HG-Nope, can't do yhat. Me: Can you pin the mags to 10rds? HG:Sorry can't do that. Me: Can you ship without the mags? HG-No, can't do that either. Me:Can you ship as is and let the receiving FFL dispose of them? HG: No, can only ship to NJ if it is NJ compliant as it came from the manufacturer. Me: Do you know of any legal way you can sell me this pistol? HG:No I don't. Sorry. Me: Thank you very much for your time. Short and painless. I don't know if he was right or not. I certainly can't quote psalm and verse the NJ gun laws, so there was no point of forcing the issue and just left. I went ahead and rented a Beretta 92FS just to try it out. It went boom everytime I pressed the trigger and I can miss the target with it as well as I can with anyother gun. I *may* have a line on a used CZ (watch me jinx the whole thing). If that doesn't pan out, I just get the Beretta and tell CZ to go pound sand since their stuff isn't gold plated anyway. None left as of yesterday. Thanks everybody for all the sugestions.

Where? Anyplace within 20 miles of 07885 and I'm in. I'm not a member of RTSP because membership+wife+rifle=500.00 ouch.

Both yesteday and today at about noon. Over an hour waiting.

I think RTSP does that. At least that's the way it looks to me.

Just checked. They are out.

The time sounds about right. If he was with the wife, probably it was me.

I did a price request here on the forum. Paul is included in the loop. Haven't heard from anybody yet. To be fair to them--and I want to be fair--I only put the request in on Saturday night, so they only had one working day to work on it. So I'm not complaining about that at all. Well, that's pretty much what happened. I was looking at Sigs and Berretas until I asked about the CZ (based on recomendations from forum members), held it and was sold. Wrong caliber, though.

Had none on Saturday and pretty much told me to find on the net on my own. He would do the transfer.

Heard that multiple times at 3 different gun stores since Saturday. Found one in .40 cal. but I'm looking for a 9mm. What in in God's green eath is going on? Even a internet search does not yeld much. Any other places I should be looking at? Any ideas why so scarce? Nobody seems to know.

Last in line and all that jazz. Are we supposed to protect the supid, too? I understand protecting the women folk, the chillens, the weak,...but not the stupid. Screw them, they are on their own. Besides, if both parties walk away happy, than it doesn't really matter how much and what exchanged hands, does it? Anyway, merry christmas to all.
