IWI TSG16 TAVOR SAR 5.56 16.5IN OD Green - $1,218 after price match request
Wound up finding g an X95 on GunBroker for $1600. I believe all I'll have to do is have the muzzle pinned and welded once it arrives at my FFL. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thoughts on the CAI C39v2 AKM?
I've been interested in a C39v2... Does anyone have a recommendation for a shop that carries them in the CNJ area?

Guns Shops Reviews - Good and Bad
A review of Lou's Gun Shop in Raritan I posted from 2013... I haven't gone back since... http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/57428-lous-firearms-customer-review/?p=735561 A business can change a lot in 2 years... so I wouldn't try to dissuade anyone from going, I just don't think I'll ever go back.

NSSF Indoor Range & Retail Development DVD
I've watched the videos, and am incredibly impressed in the detail offered through the different topics. Unfortunately, looks like I won't be moving forward with building a range. If anyone is interested in the DVDs, let me know. I'm willing to sell them to anyone considering learning more about the firearms industry.

NSSF Indoor Range & Retail Development DVD
Does anyone have access to a 9 DVD set that the NSSF released titled " Indoor Range & Retail Development Workshop DVD Package"? Would you be willing to let me borrow or rent it? I'm trying to do as much research as I can to see if it would be feasible to open up a range in my home town of Edison, NJ. Looks like this DVD set covers all the topics that I currently have questions about. Here's a link to the product site for reference: http://www.nssf.org/ranges/workshop/ Also, if anyone has any other materials and/or advice on how to open a range, that would be much appreciated. I think it's about time we get a public range in the central NJ area, and it's my dream to be the one to build it. Hopefully I can make that come to life.

Attending first USPSA at OBRPC ... any tips?
+1 Vlad is great at the new shooter orientation. I came in green and felt very confident after the briefing. My opinion: concentrate on fundamentals of safety & the procedure of the sport. Don't worry about scores or time at all. Make sure you really examine the course, and really make sure you are aware of ALL targets. This is something I really struggle with. It sucks having a really smooth run... Only to realize you missed a target (or three)

A slide that doesn't lock back could get you killed!
Wow... You guys have some serious issues with him... To each their own. I can say I've met him, trained with him, had conversations with him, and respect him. He really is a great guy. Sorry you disagree. Opinions are formed through experience and insight. Mine are different than yours... I respect that. My apologies to the OP if this thread has spiraled off topic. My first post was merely to illustrate the training that I have experienced and believe is sound... Regardless of the personality it comes from. Take it for what's it's worth... Just my humble support for a simple and straightforward approach to gun fighting. If I train to do the same exact manipulation a every time, then when shit hits the fan there's less of a chance of me messing it up.

Lol... It's funny home many people hate on this guy. I can see how he rubs people the wrong way... But his methods are sound. If a homeless guy told me the sky was blue, and then explained to me it was because molecules in the air scatter the blue wavelengths of light from the sun more prominently than any other spectrum... I'd be inclined to believe it because it makes scientific sense, regardless of the source. To me... That's what the Tactical Response methods offer.

A slide that doesn't lock back could get you killed!
This is how I train... I've taken the time to learn about the different aspects of reloading strategy... Tactical reloads, fast reloads, etc. IMO..Hands down... the idea of non-diagnostic weapon handling is the best. I've trained with Tactical Response and that is their method. I find that it just really makes perfect sense to me. Loosing 1 round out of the chamber isn't nearly as important as making sure my body does the same exact movements every time... To ensure that if I was ever under stress I don't ever have to make a decision One thing to point out in this video... It may seem like they're teaching to tap-rack whenever you gun runs empty... That's not the case. If the slide does lock back (which is usually obvious to the shooter) they teach to initiate the reload.

Career in Firearms
Many people have said... "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life" Well I love guns... Anyone have any advice on how to make a move into the firearms industry with a background in graphic arts? I'm currently an Art Director in pharmaceutical advertising... Which I think gives me something to offer in the marketing field... But I'm not sure. Anyone else ever want to make a move into the industry?

In the market for a gun belt
Can't go wrong with Galco... Best damn belt I've ever bought. Thought I would only use it for when I carry at the range... Wound up being my everyday belt. Solid.

Rifle in trunk, car. Why?
So... Are we allowed to have magazines loaded, but not in a gun? I've been under the impression that the magazine having ammo in it could be construed as being "loaded" as the mag is "part of the gun"... Is this not true? Otherwise, I can't imagine any long gun being useful in the amount of time it takes to load a magazine

Glock or M&P
+1 Also, forget the idea of "finding a gun that feels right in your hands"... Find a gun that has the necessary features that will allow you to fight and win, train with it and master that firearm. I guarantee your hands will learn to fit the gun. And I bet that will be a lot more beneficial than finding a gun that fits your hands... A gun is a tool... I don't buy a hammer based on which one fits my hands perfectly... I buy one on how well it drives the nail I want it to drive... And on that note... My hammer is a glock... Which is hammerless... And can indeed be used as a hammer.

Ear protection
+1 for the Peltor Tac 6 I've had cheaper electronic muffs... But none of em were ever as reliable as the Peltor. Plus they fold up real nice in the range bag and have a pretty low profile Stay away from the Caldwell electronic pro... Had a pair that didn't even last a year, and they were slightly slower at stopping the loud noises (which plays a big role in usability)... Now I use em as backup non-electronic
