Hello and welcome

Great idea!

Welcome Eddie!

Welcome! (Mmm, Tavor...)

Not only nice looking, but feels great and shoots accurate. I have BE in 9mm, all steel, Israeli made. I like it better than anything I tried so far. (Have to confess not many yet.) BTW, when I was shopping for semi-auto, somebody at the store noted that 40 were snappy. Well, 9mm was my preference anyway. The only downsize - it is heavy for CCW. Which is irrelevant in my situation

What about S&W 617?

Great choice, congrats! And with your 21 too

Welcome!

I'm avoiding reloads and steel/aluminum for 9mm. Shoot Federal (AE), Winchester, Remington, Hornady, S&B without any issues. Got Blazer brass recently, had first FTE (after 600+ rounds). I'll certainly use what I have but not sure if I buy it again. Will see how the rest goes. And, after S&B spent more time cleaning, but I don't mind.

Welcome Shawn!

Revolvers (except rimfire) are OK.

Wow!

When I bought 100-round Winchester from Cabelas, there was +1 in each box. I guess it was by weight.

Perfect shot, as always

Yep, same thing, same reason... In my case - critical defense.

Thanks

My biggest distortion here is the name of the course - it's called "NRA First Step Pistol". The rest is as good as I can recall. I don't guarantee the exact wording, but this was what essentially said. I remember these points exactly because I was quite surprised too. Sorry, I didn't have intention to hijack this thread.

In fact, he did talk about HPs. He said that "it is only illegal to commit crime with HP". That I can interpret that you better don't run red light when you go to a range with HP... As for the loaded mags, law or no law, I'm not planning to be a "test case".

"Handgun First Steps" at GFH, Woodland Park.

Longer barrel - better accuracy, methinks. And, I expect faster velocity.

Here is exactly what I was told when I took training earlier this year: Magazine is a part of the firearm, hence loaded mag is illegal in NJ. Moreover, it is illegal to transport mags in the same container with ammo. The safe way - mags and firearms in one container, ammo in another.

Went to a range today, shoot about 100 rounds from semi-autos, pretty bad... And, before leaving, only six shots with GP100 - and life is good again.

Exactly...

I got earlier this year from the manufacturer, price about $30
