Chambered in 9mm... great deal. I paid 700 two days ago. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=330402239

I've played violent video games and watched violent movies the majority of my life. It's a complete and total farse. Video games and movies don't make people violent. People make people violent. Bad parenting, lack of discipline growing up, and an overall downturn of society's moral values are the reasons we have psychopaths roaming the earth more now than ever. Can video games and movies desensitize children to acts of violence? Maybe, but it certainly had no negative effect on me because I had good parents to teach me right from wrong.

I guess this guy has never heard of a fake ID. When I was 17-20 we all had them and would buy alcohol whenever the hell we wanted lol...

I got the same letter and funny enough he has a D rating from the NRA.

Yup. Won't hear a word about this.

I think it will go through assembly and then Christie will veto it. He has said multiple times he thinks our current laws are tough enough.

Definitely follow up. I also live in a smaller town in Morris County and stopped by the PD today just to make sure they got my reference letters. She told me that they still haven't received one and then called me 20 minutes later to tell me they just got it in the mail now all they have to do is their internal review. At least following up will help you figure out where you're at especially if it's something like they haven't received the reference letters back yet.

I shoot thumbs forward. I'm going to be a lot more mindful of where exactly my right thumb is sitting the next time I'm out shooting to see if that's the problem.

And none of these scum will listen until they are voted out!

Done.

I've got a family run business here so going anywhere further than PA isn't really an option for me. Even then when working in NJ I still won't be able to carry. So what's the point? Texas would be ideal, but I just don't see how it's feasible for me unfortunately.

Nice... just ordered one yesterday for 699 haha

Agreed with this. Buy the 226 chambered in 9mm and get the .22 conversion kit later. I don't see any benefit to buying the gun in .22 and then getting a 9mm kit.

Not sure where you were looking, but they had around 6-7 glocks as of yesterday just before they closed. The pink one you saw was sitting right next to a glock 21 in fde.

Mine was 4 days for a rifle earlier this month.

sucks for the people who got killed by this maniac and their families... RIP.

These people sure aren't doing us any favors. I don't see how hard it is to follow the laws when flying. They make you throw out your water for fks sake... what makes you think you can carry a weapon in your carry on? That's being stupid and begging for whatever punishment comes your way.

A step in the right direction... now the big boys need to step in and do the same.

The mecgars were new when I got them and honestly this could have been their first time out. Haven't been keeping track of which ones I've used before. I've recently changed my grip, so that could be a factor possibly. I'm certain I'm not limp wristing or anything like that. Might just have to be more mindful of where my right thumb is going. I think it's a slide lock issuing causing FTF the more I think about it. Like I said in the OP, the slide was locked back both times it occurred today. I've been using a new grip for the last 500 rounds or so, but have never experienced this issue. Every time I clean my gun it's a basic field strip. I haven't detail stripped my gun yet. I'll try your suggestions and report back. Thanks Edit: The slide lock moves smoothly with an empty mag. With 1 or 2 rounds nothing contacts the slide lock at all.

Gun was clean and well lubed. I try to clean it after every time I shoot. Bought the gun new so like I said only 1500-2000 rounds through it. Now that you mention it, my last time out the slide wouldn't lock back after the last round 2-3 times. Is that dirty and/or crappy magazines? That happened with the Mecgar mags I managed to pick up recently.

Haven't tried anything yet... literally just got back I'll put that on the short list though.

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but was hoping someone could give me some insight. Have about 1500-2000 rounds through my p229 chambered in .40 and have yet to have any malfunctions of any kind. It has run flawlessly up until tonight when I was at the range. I shot 150 rounds and had 2 failures to feed, but the slide locked all the way to the rear on both occasions. Anyone have any idea what could have caused that? I'm wondering if I just accidentally hit the slide lock and caught it on the way back or if there's something else I should consider. Thanks

Good to know. Thanks.

So funny this thread was made yesterday as I was going to make the same one today. I've held the P30 in my hands and it feels really nice. The grip is awesome. Right now I own a p229 in .40 and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on owning both striker fired and DA/SA hammer fired pistols. Is it difficult to become accustomed to both? Wondering if I should stick to one or the other at this point which would make the p30 an ideal choice for me.
