  1. As someone who has to carry several million dollars in professional liability insurance, I fully understand insurance requirements. What makes me do a double take is how all the other ranges that I have been to in NJ can get insurance without having the same patron registration requirement. As for the discounts, it appears to be somewhat disingenuous. The prices seem to me to be marked up to an extreme rate, then marked back down to acceptable street prices for members. If I recall, the members prices for various calibers of ammunition listed on the TVs over the rental counter were in line with prices I have seen in other NJ gun stores. The non-member prices were simply ridiculous. This appears on the surface to amount to the same thing as Macy's unable to sell a pair of shoes for $100, but once a sign is placed next to them that they are on sale for $100 down from $200 the gullible public makes the shoe difficult to keep in stock. Just my opinion feedback based on a single observation tho.
  2. This Monday was the first time I went to RTSP since they remodeled/expanded. I have to say, the place is really nice. As an Architect, sure I would have produced a better design but its done very well. Big selection and the range is top notch. The downside... prices. Cost of magazines is easily 30% higher than online and still more than other brick and mortar stores, ammo is more expensive than other brick and mortar stores and sometimes double online prices. The range time is nearly double the cost of the indoor range I typically go to. Having to fill out paperwork to use the range is a bit ridiculous. I understand the need to CYA but asking for my DL# and FID# in order to use the range is obnoxious. Safety video, its a good idea, no qualms with that one. Wish other places did that Kinda funny seeing the guys behind the counter shoot the SIRT pistol laser in each others eyes from across the store. The store had more employees than patrons at the time so no one was being ignored. The guy I was with signed up for a membership. For me, not so much. The place very is nice, but the costs reflect the investment.
  3. I'm finding a lot of clients asking for generators in their facilities. These are mostly commercial buildings and we seem to be doing a lot of 150kW natural gas units. It seems to be the trend and I am seeing a lot of smaller Generac units pop up next to houses all the time. I've done a couple of residential ones, and a lot of commercial but the surge since Sandy has been noticeable.
  4. The statutes regarding the amount of powder to he allowed in a residence is taken from the NFPA, IBC and UCC codes. The requirements are essentially a building code restriction. Due to the hazardous nature of the material and the type of construction most homes are (V-B: Combustible) the quantity of the material has to be limited. I deal with this every day at work, when clients want to store large quantities of flammable liquids they are required to build room capable of withstanding 2 hours of continuous fire, vapor monitoring systems and so on. The powder limitation is not a grab for your rights, but a building code and public safety issue. This play by the police is pry open this man's safes after he was attached is ridiculous. This is why I don't trust any cops and need to get out of this damn state as soon as possible.
  5. Same here. I was asked for no head shots with an AR, but I rarely shoot my carbine there. Usually only when I bring new shooters/friends there who have never shot one. 45 rounds from my M&P9 at 7 yards, no one said anything to be about headshots during that string. Not sure why I keep shooting left. Really pissing me off.
  6. A DL should without question be your number one priority. Its nearly impossible to do anything in NJ without the ability to drive. If you were in New York City, I can see not owning a car, but here in the suburbs, you are screwed. There is some public transportation, but it is usually limited to routes leading to and from larger cities, Newark, Jersey City, Trenton and NYC. There is no way you can get to Range 14 without a car, unless one of us drives you. lol
  7. What I mean is that the family seems to be the only people working there. Like I said, I never has an unpleasant experience there. Just transferred my 7.62 OBR through there three weeks ago or so. Yes its expensive at $75 a pop but I'd rather give them a few $ extra and drive all the way up there than support a former much closer store who's employees made sexual advances toward my wife. The RO's seem to know me at this point, one asks where my wife is when I come alone, and in general they have always been nothing but nice to her. The first time we went shooting, we went to a different range and the RO made her cry. No Joke! I didn't this she would ever shoot again. We went to the Bullet Hole and they were totally nice to her and now she loves shooting. For that alone I will continue to be a patron. I had an RO at another range take my rifle out of my friend wife's hands and tell her she is shooting it wrong, proceeded to stand so bladed he may as well have had his back to the target and in general was a douche. Never such an experience at the Bullet Hole. I have never seen it done.
  8. http://pistol-training.com/drills TONS of great drills, including downloadable targets.
  9. Went there twice... Once to shoot with friends; was in the middle of showing his wife how to shoot the AR when the RO decided to step in, tell me I was doing it all wrong and proceed to place her completely bladed with her elbow up. I politely told him to fuck off and never touch my firearms without my permission again. Second time was to sell a POS Thumb-Hole Stock AK that I bought on a whim and had no more use for. They gave me shit money for it, but it was doing nothing for me so I might as well get some $ for it. They guys working the counter were the biggest douchenozzles ever. You won't see me crying over BA going belly up. I do feel bad for anyone having property there tho...
  10. Ran my PredatAR almost to the point of failure in a class with a lot of grounded shooting in the dirt. Lots of dust and sand being kicked up, shooting with ejection port inches off of the ground. On a magazine change, it would not move the round all the way forward and lock into battery as it did when it was cleaner. Put two drops of Slip200 EWL on the BCG and it went right back to normal. I was shooting Wolf the whole time as well. I like shooting my guns, I am not a fan of cleaning them at all. I clean them when I absolutely have to. I have friends who clean more than shoot, I enjoy laughing at them.
  11. I have SP642 downloaded. Let's DO THIS!
  12. I love the Bullet Hole. Sure its not fancy or shiny and new, but it works, its an awesome value and I never had a problem with the staff. It's a family owned business and I like supporting them.
  13. I already have Florida, not planning on travaling to Washington State. The company I used to work for has an office there so I could have seen myself going there then, no real chance of it now. WHat is the training requirement for Texas? Seems like you can apply online lol.
  14. I was going to take the class for my Utah CCW... I guess I'll just save the $200 and buy ammo with it and stick to my Florida permit for now.
  15. The gun would be legal if you follow the chart. It's the magazine that is illegal. You dont have to have the gun to be a felon, having the magazine alone would get you screwed... if I understand the law correctly. Might be wrong

  17. Im so sad I am finding it hard to work. I know nothing changes, I was unable to carry yesterday, I am unable to carry today. Having my last hope dashed just hurts. I can only hope that I am able to find a job in another state.
  18. Does SCOTUS issue a reason as to why they do not grant cert?
  19. UGH... I feel gutted...
  20. Cooooooooooome Oooooooooon Summary Reversal, Cooooooooooome Oooooooooon Summary Reversal, Cooooooooooome Oooooooooon Summary Reversal, SHIT! Re-List lol
  21. Stupid question because I did not find the information in the link to the law. Seems like once it's in force, we will not be able to buy a non "personalized handgun" But I did not see anything about the removal and or destruction of traditional handguns already owned. Am I right on that one? Just trying to find an excuse to tell the wife to buy more lol :-p
  22. Does anyone else sell these? Seems like only GregCote and G&R have them listed...
